Subpoenas were issued in probe of Russia ‘conspiracy,’ then DOJ clawed them back, sources say The Justice Department sent subpoenas to witnesses, and then withdrew them, in its investigation of former CIA Director John Brennan for his role in the Russia investigation.

Breaking MS NOW:

The Justice Department has begun withdrawing several subpoenas that had just been issued in the criminal probe of former CIA Director John Brennan — revealing the confusion and disorder within the controversial investigation.

The post includes a photo of a visibly distressed Alex Jones and the new rainbow-colored Infowars logo.

Karma is a betch, Alex Jones.

Fractures Emerge Between GOP’s Pro-Pedophilia, Extremely Pro-Pedophilia Wings

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.

It was worth it.

“Hey grandpa, why didn’t you answer this question? It was easy.”

“Well Billy, you see if I answered truthfully then Trump would have sent a mean tweet and the people in red hats would have been mean to me.”

Wow 🤯

I honestly don’t see how the USA will survive the moral bankruptcy, democratic wreckage, and loss of international credibility caused by Trump 2.0

Plenty of criticism on the right of the #SCOTUS leaker and the Times’s reporting, but has anyone actually responded to the argument that Roberts’s assessment of “irreparable harm” and his refusal to balance the equities is completely inconsistent with his subsequent behavior in all the Trump cases?

Screenshot of a tweet by Bryan Behar (@bryanbehar) joking that we've reached the "Cabinet applauds because President can sign his own name phase of dementia," quote-tweeting Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) who captured Trump remarking after signing his name, "Oh, that's a good one. Look at that, Joe. Do you think Biden can do that?" The embedded video shows Trump leaning over a desk signing a document.

Do we applaud when he names all five animals in a cognitive test? Trying to understand the protocol.

Screenshot of a Substack note by account 'JoJoFromJerz' that says: 'In a sane administration, the FBI Director doesn’t go on the morning news to prove he’s not a drunk, the Defense Secretary doesn’t quote Tarantino to prove he’s a man of God, and the President doesn’t take multiple cognitive exams to prove he’s not insane.'

None of this is normal.

Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx. 

In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

“And don’t say I was mad. I definitely wasn’t mad. Actually I was laughing.”

Mike Nellis @MikeNellis "I'M NO LONGER CATHOLIC!" Hannity ABANDONS HIS FAITH for Trump NELLIS X.com • +*+

Amazing that in the national divorce the libs are getting the NFL, butter and cooking oil, being attracted to adult women, standup comedy, Bud Light, and now also Catholicism

President Trump was walking into the lobby of one of his Florida golf clubs earlier this year when a group of associates with ties to his businesses approached him with a proposal to increase the number of visas for seasonal guest workers, according to people familiar with the matter. Bernd Lembcke, the former manager of Mar-a-Lago who recently retired after a 30-year stint working at Trump’s properties, and Peter Petrina, a longtime Mar-a-Lago member, made the case to the president in January that the hospitality industry needed more workers ahead of the winter and spring peak tourism season. Adrian Tudor, a manager at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, helped facilitate the conversation, the people said.

VAN HOLLEN: When you were in the House, you said Biden needed to make clear that 'Putin is an absolute war criminal.' Do you stand by that?

WALTZ: Statements I made in Congress are very different than what I make now working for President Trump. I support President Trump is everything he is doing

Weird they didn’t feel that way about prices before Trump. 🤔

DOGGETT: Were you shocked to see that 850 people who were suspended for fraud had been reinstated at all once?

RFK Jr: President Biden ...

DOGGETT: Reclaiming my time. Biden's administration suspended 850 suspected fraudsters. Yours let them go back to work

Tim Kaine to Vought: "Far from going down as you're refunding illegal tariffs, you're predicting dramatic increases in tariffs! What is President Trump gonna tax next? What industry sectors are you gonna hobble?"

a yelling RFK Jr denies making comments about Black children that Rep. Sewell printed out and put on a placard

Take a moment and watch this until the end.

The sad reality is that we can’t believe anything the president tells us about the most serious issues facing both the country and the world because he’s a congenital liar.

Precisely the kind of abuse of religion for political purposes that the Pope is speaking out against.

Holy shit. I don’t have words for how corrupt this is. Keep in mind, the Ukraine whistleblower is still anonymous. And Gabbard kept a whistleblower report from Congress about a call between foreign intel agents discussing someone close to Trump and Iran. @andrewbakaj.bsky.social

every single one of these fucking charlatans would support the antichrist himself if he spouted enough anti immigrant and anti trans shit as he rode through town

POPE: Thou shalt not kill.

STEFANIK: How dares he to attack the president like this?
