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
Imagine if jill Biden did this
Trump turns to Patel after Stephen Miller praises him for five minutes and says, "So Kash, see if you can top that. That's a tough one, Kash."
"That is tough," Patel replies, and then he starts praising him too
Thanks - hard to think of a more important legislative objective
My resolution to overturn the Supreme Court’s disastrous Citizens United decision — H.J.Res 122 — has now been co-sponsored by 72 Members of Congress. You can view the full list at: www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c....
I’ll keep fighting to get it across the finish line!
Lieu: "Undocumented immigrants want nothing to do with the govt! To vote, you have to first register. How many undocumented immigrants are gonna go, 'Yes, I'm gonna give all my information to the govt that's maybe trying to deport me. No way!' This is a problem that doesn't exist."
1) we don't have to show ID for many things. 2) the id most of us have is a driver's license which doesn't prove citizenship anyway. 3) voter registration already checks citizenship 4) non citizen voting is already very, very rare. 5) the bill will disenfranchise many legal voters

Ted Lieu: “A foreign hacker likely has the Epstein Files — the best way to prevent blackmail of government officials, such as Trump & Howard Lutnick, would be for AG Pam Bondi to stop the cover up & release all the Epstein Files as required by law”
I don't think you have to Nostradamus to figure that bombing Iran might raise oil prices. And it seems pretty obvious that buying oil in advance of causing an oil price spike might just save Americans a lot of money. But...
...maybe there wasn't much planning?
A Reductress post features a photo of Kristi Noem with the headline, “Kristi Noem Put Down for Being Too Hard to Train”
Screaming
This aged well. Note the author.
Holy shit.
A lot of people have suggested this, but I don’t think Lieu would make the allegation unless he had seen some evidence.
An absolutely insane "investment"
ICE expects to spend $38.3 BILLION on its plan to turn warehouses across the country into immigrant detention centers, according to agency documents.
The plan’s budget is more than the total annual spending for 22 states.
NEW: The FBI interview implicating Trump for raping and assaulting a 14 year old took place one day before Epstein was found dead in his jail cell, and emails about the credible accusation came around the time Blanche visited Ghislaine Maxwell in pirson. substack.com/home/post/p-...

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.
BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned
NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?
Jayapal: To the survivors in the room, if you are willing, please stand. And if you are willing, please raise your hands. If you have still not been able to meet with this DOJ. Please note for the record that every single survivor has raised their hand.
"A modern-day concentration camp ... People have been killed by the staff here." Irish citizen Seamus Culleton has been in ICE detention since September, despite having a valid work permit and his own business in the US.
The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

Someone in Congress needs to sponsor the Pretti-Good Act of 2026. It would:
1) remove immunity from any federal agent who willfully and intentionally violates the constitutional rights of a civilian;
2) prohibit any federal agent from pretending to have a judicial warrant if they don’t, from
In case anyone forgot, this administration had already prohibited public funding of mRNA vaccine research. Moderna was one of the single biggest private funders of mRNA vaccine research. This will set us back decades.
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."
Holy shit.
The amount of money that is currently going to fund immigration enforcement in the US is larger than the military budgets of every country in the world other than the US and China. We are witnessing a military assault on American cities by a wildly unpopular governing party.
Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.
🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.
The most consistent them in Trump's second term has been that every time he leans into his tariff agenda, markets tank, and every time he backs off, they rise. And here's the latest round of uppy-downy to prove the point.
Markets clearly believe that Trump's tariff agenda hurts American businesses.
