DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.
He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.
The grift continues.
Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.
But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
Just thinking about what we could do with a billion dollars a day that doesn’t include bombing people.
Fuck this xunt. She has ruined so many lives
Just a thought, maybe SecDef shouldn’t jerk himself off on live television at the thought of casualties in war.
War isn’t something to be giddy about. Were the most powerful nation on the planet. We’re supposed to be the quiet professionals, not carnival barking morons.
BREAKING: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton calls for an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged foreign intelligence ties.
AOC: If people like Kristi Noem, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi violate the law, there are supposed to be consequences. These are people who call themselves law enforcement officers. The message they’re sending is that they can cover up for pedophiles and street executions. That cannot be acceptable.
This is how we treat veterans in America. This veteran came to stand up for fellow soldiers being used by Israel and his arm was broken as he was violently removed.
Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) was accused of breaking the hand of Marine veteran and anti-war activist Brian McGinnis.
Jesus Christ there is no rock bottom
KAMLAGER-DOVE: At any point in your tenure at DHS, have you had sexual relations with Corey Lewandowski?
NOEM: You're peddling tabloid garbage
K: You should be able to answer if someone asks if a federal official is sleeping with their subordinate
NOEM: It's garbage
K: It's about your judgment
Kamlager-Dove: During you tenure at DHS, have you had sexual relations with Corey Lewandowski?
Noem: I am shocked we are peddling tabloid garbage.
NOEM: I would disagree with the judge
CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?
NOEM: A what?
CROCKETT: A law degree
NOEM: No I do no-
CROCKETT: Okay
This is the message that needs to be repeated by the Democrats. There is a tomorrow, and there will be accountability for the corruption and anti-democratic behaviour of officials.
No, this is not retribution, and no this doesn't apply to voters.
Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."
Excellent response.
WALZ: What a 'stop payment' meant by what the administration did last week is 400,000 children without healthcare
COMER: We believe that's your fault
WALZ: Our Medicaid error rate is lower than your state
Joe Neguse and Kristi Noem, split screen.
Neguse is walking Noem through her false testimony yesterday that her $220M propaganda campaign was competitively bid.
He's reading right from no-bid justification. 4 companies were given the bid.
Neguse: Where is it HQed?
Noem: I don't know.
Neguse: We don't know either. We tried to find it.
It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.
Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.
Raskin tears Kristi Noem a new one: "Apparently when your blankie was left on one of the govt jets and not transported to the new one, your special govt employee, Corey Lewandowski, chivalrously stepped forward to fight the pilot -- mid air!"
Neguse demolishes Noem (2/2)
"It is fraud" -- Neguse nails Kristi Noem for lying during her testimony yesterday when she told the Senate that DHS's $220m ad campaign starring her "went out to a competitive bid" (it did not), and tells her "I think there's gonna be accountability" (1/2)
LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?
NOEM: She did not. She's with her family
LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release
Jayapal: DHS is supposed to be protecting our residents. You have actually turned the United States government against its own residents. Yours is a case of failed leadership secretary, you need to resign, be fired, or be impeached.
Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."
Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities.
Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.
Pritzker: "It's clear that Donald Trump has diminished capacity, which I think is sad -- that the people around him are not getting him help, and instead they're just taking advantage of him. And that's what Stephen Miller is."
Michael Waltz had TWENTY group chats exposing America's most sensitive military secrets??!!?
Sounds like we need TWENTY articles of impeachment to remove Waltz from office
Trump isn’t just playing with fire — he’s lighting the whole damn thing up. Ruining our economy, raising costs for everyday working Americans, causing stock markets to fall, and slapping tariffs on 185 countries.
This is not leadership.
As said by the Orange Stain himself...
