I’d rather see them stay there, do their jobs…question every lie and half truth, ask for evidence and report that no substantiation was given for any claim he makes. Hell, why don’t they yell and scream like they did at Joe Biden?

AND he’s given them those chips…

“Malevolent” comes to mind…

I wish it was only incompetence, which can be dealt with in the voting booth. This lot has just abrogated all their responsibilities voluntarily and gleefully. Now they can get paid well for doing absolutely nothing.

The ‘justification’ for this is that we are being attacked by cartels who are killing Americans with illicit drugs. BS. The cartels are selling product to Americans who agree to purchase it. They are not innocent victims. Mr. Transaction should understand that. Arrest and trial, not murder!

I think the sad truth is this: the fact that he will do this with no authority, approval or regulation, is a sign that he has no intention of leaving at the end of his term. He is customizing his permanent residence; and I think we will learn more about this very soon.

Yeah, calling on them to resign so they can eventually take positions of importance all throughout the Magasphere. This is nothing other than street cred for Magats. There is no low too low for them.

Included with our California ballot for the statewide special election (Prop 50). Not surprising given the erosion of the Postal Service by DeJoy and the continued march toward privatization that tRUMP wants from Steiner.

Oh c’mon! Of course tRUMP doesn’t know and doesn’t care. He does as he’s told by his Project 2025 masters. I love your passion Rep Raskin, but please tell it like it is. Don’t act like it’s a mystery!

Unfortunately, working class voters are right where he wants them to be…lied to with a constant barrage of fox noise, and with their elected representatives thoroughly cowed into submission to every magat whim. They truly believe this is what they want and voted for.

The hit was so quick I barely had time to bring my camera to bear as this red shouldered hawk headed for its nest with a tasty meal.

Does the orange wonder know that Columbus Day was never stopped??

How Trump Plays Into Putin’s Hands, From Ukraine to Slashing U.S. Institutions Many of President Trump’s actions have been seen as benefiting Russia either directly or indirectly, so much so that Russian officials have celebrated some of his moves.

I wonder how may of them will be taken into custody and wind up in an ICE detention center.

What’s American for “enchilada”?

I honestly don’t know why Dems still talk in terms of serious (or even remotely possible) bipartisan agreement on ANYTHING. Republicans have no interest whatsoever in bipartisanship; and Dems need to take a lesson from their playbook…learn how to lead from behind. They did it, Dems can too.

The best you can say about arguably the most powerful man in the world is that he is a petty, vindictive little man with a fragile little ego.

Opinion | Truths to Remember in a Time of Lies Chaos and disorientation are the goals here. But we know what’s going on behind the curtain.

@raskin.house.gov You are a brilliant constitutional attorney! Why don’t you pull together the fired/resigned U.S. attorneys and flood the zone against tRUMP excesses with a barrage of lawsuits? This will not be stopped without excessive counterforce. Do it!!

Visited this morning by a Red Shouldered Hawk.

The eyes definitely have it!

A whole flock of those Oyster Catchers were living up to their name when my wife and I visited Bodega Bay this summer!

I hope it’s ONLY 4 years! I expect them to try and remove presidential term limits before the midterms. 🤨
