Simon Le Bon & Roger Taylor told me I resemble Kylie Minogue, and an online alias was born. Skater, Liberal, Trojan, Duranie…not necessarily in that order.

--Kristi Noem, the Head of Costuming, Hair, and Makeup at Political Theater
There is no universe in which it is acceptable for a Secretary of DHS to say anything like this.
Kristi Noem must resign immediately.
Or be impeached.
This is chilling to watch and utterly unacceptable in the United States of America.
As a former Senator, I’m calling on all current members to speak out on behalf of Sen. Padilla and defend him and the Senate against these outrageous attacks.
see what you need to understand is that they’re coming hard at california bc if they can take us down then it tells the smaller states there’s no point in fighting. we’re the bellwether. that’s why it’s so important we stop this shit NOW.

We need leaders and fighters.
It's now.
Today they have crossed a deep red line.
We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.
This is beyond delusional insanity, it needs its own new terminology for how devoid of reality it is. This man is a deranged lunatic.
I live in L.A., am out doing errands. L.A. is exactly like it is on any other day, with a few hundred protestors in a couple of spots in a city of nearly 10,000,000
Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.
What Trump/Vance did today by attacking Zelensky using Putin's talking points would be like in 1940 FDR openly mocking Winston Churchill using Hitler's talking points as the Nazis bombed London. This was TREASONOUS!

They may not have done it last year; they do it when it’s necessary for TV purposes. It’s obviously not an ideal scenario for the skaters or the in-person spectators.
