No shit, Sherlock!
ICE must be disbanded. Now.

They are physically grabbing citizens and illegally detaining them in those privately run “immigration prisons”

CITIZENS !!!!!

ICE has to be dismantled
And guilty ICE personnel should be prosecuted.

These guys live to gas light there farts on fire!

A reminder that, if the referendum passes today in Virginia, it's not all quite resolved: the Virginia Supreme Court has yet to weigh in on the merits as it kicked that can down the road.

Sen. Kennedy to Warsh: "My worry is that a lot of this stuff about artificial intelligence making us more productive is a bunch of hype by people who want to sell stock and an IPO. I'd be careful there."

Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "I'm pretty confident coal will lead the world in global electricity production when I die"

Yeah. He’s a clueless idiot. Coal is no more.

Bullshit Bobby.

WARSH: The broad contours of the economy are improving. The potential of the economy, the real results of the economy are improving.

TINA SMITH: The reality is there was almost 0 job growth in 2025. That looks to me like not a roaring economy, but a weak economy.

Trump Administration sources say that the president gave Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer 30 days to either stop abusing her office or become a man like Pete Hegseth and RFK, Jr. She did neither and was summarily fired.

I'm sorry, but I don't think lying about tawdry but consensual sex between adults is an impeachable offense, full stop.

HIRONO: The rising prices of energy -- is that something you didn't contemplate happening before the president declared his illegal war?

CHRIS WRIGHT: No. We knew exactly what would happen

HIRONO: It doesn't seem like it, because the president doesn't understand how to open the strait

GALLEGO: Earlier today, you told Sec. Kennedy that Trump never demanded you to cut interest rates. Is that your sworn testimony?

WARSH: That is, senator.

GALLEGO: Okay. Well someone here is lying then. Because Trump confirmed he pressed you on interest rate cuts.

This is why Obama was an awesome president, he’s inclusive and accepting.

CHRIS WRIGHT: Energy prices are still well lower than they were in middle of the Biden adminis--

CANTWELL: I want to stop you right there. There is nobody in the Northwest who thinks that. Not when they wake up & airline flights are being canceled because of high fuel costs. No one thinks it's okay

Chris Wright insists that collapsing snow pack in Colorado is the result of "the path of the jet stream last year," not climate change

No shit, Sherlock.

Coachella is removing these videos, so they might be about to learn about the Strokesand Effect.

The DOJ is now 123 days overdue in releasing the Epstein files.

He has to lie to save face. It isn’t working.

RFK Jr. just said that immigration is to blame for the outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases in the U.S., not him.

A hundred years ago, the U.S. had a nationwide network of short-line railroads that connected most urban and rural communities. By the 1940s, most of it had been dismantled ... by the barons of the auto and oil industries. 😑

The DOJ is now 122 days overdue to release the Epstein files.

You have radio interference, sir.

look, I may not approve of Donald Trump bombing Iran's civilian infrastructure, but he is our president and I will defend to the death his right to be removed from office, arrested, stripped of his wealth, tried for his crimes and chucked straight the fuck into some hellish prison

Peace Talks Day is off to a great start.
