Good question for Kristi Noem.

ICE is terrorizing our cities under Sec. Noem’s watch.

Her response? More misinformation & disinformation.

If the agent of an embittered KGB officer somehow won the US presidency and entered into the office bent on destroying the USA in its national influence, network of alliances, and the American people’s quality of life, what would he be doing differently?

War hero schools a chickenhawk.

Trump: "Adam Schifty Schiff. Can you believe this guy? He's got the smallest neck I've ever seen. And the biggest head. We call him watermelon head. How can that big fat face stand on a neck that looked like this finger? ... how we can allow people like that to run in office is a shame."

Rule of Law is in the rearview mirror.

BREAKING: Judge McFadden has *granted * the AP’s injunction against the White House’s ban on access to the Oval Office and East Room.

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

Commentary: Why Tesla's bumpy ride may not be over Tesla's sales are cratering, its stock is plummeting, and its most prominent product is a joke. Is it finally crashing to Earth?

“It’s really come as quite a shock to me that there is this level of, really, hatred & violence from the Left"--Musk

If these cuts happen, hospitals will close and people will lose their jobs.

What a psycho
