Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Murray: I talked to a family that’s paying about $300 a month for their health insurance. It’s going to jump to over $1,800 per month.

Many people will turn away and not pay for it—obviously, they’ll lose their health insurance. The fewer people who have insurance, the more everybody pays.

Goon squads.

It's very bad.

This strikes me as pretty bad

Schiff: "You were asked whether you were firing career prosecutors just because they worked on January 6 investigations. You refused to answer that question."

Plenary power…Stephen “The Bridge Troll” Miller said the quiet part out loud. Here’s the clip shared by Nick.

Trump is DESPERATE for war in our streets!

FBI snagged Sen. Ron Johnson's phone logs in their Jan. 6 probe, eyeing his push for bogus electors to Pence. Now he whines about "shocking" surveillance from the same crew he accuses of threatening democracy. #Jan6

Take a moment to listen to the inimitable Jane Goodall. RIP. ❤️✊🏽

I agree with Mr. Steele.

She needed put in check 100%. This is insane.

The Weeknight host @michaelsteele.bsky.social slams Attorney General Pam Bondi as a “petulant political hack” for insulting Democrats during a Senate hearing and refusing to answer their questions.

The original version of the book said that Epstein was involved in introducing Melania to her beloved husband.

Any adults left in the GOP to represent the people.

Many of their constituents are starting to be negatively impacted and GOP Representatives and Senators are too busy riding Trump's jock around the clock to notice or care.

Fox and Jessie Watters specifically are useless trash. They make Jerry Springer look serious. This really does look like they masked up Robert O'neill for these fictional "interviews". This fits right in with right wing influencers showing up in Portland pretending to be Antifa.

Don't look now, but Pam Bondi is refusing to answer Lindsey Graham's question about how many "illegals" live in Chicago.

Instead, she filibustered about how many drug traffickers were caught there, most based on investigations started under Biden.

BONDI: The National Guard is on the way right now as we speak. You're sitting here grilling me and they're on their way to Chicago to keep your state safe.

DURBIN: It's my job to grill you

THE CHICKENS ARE FINALLY COMING HOME TO ROOST

Ryan Walters is out & the investigation floodgates just opened. The Oklahoma AG launched a full audit of Walters’ entire tenure as Superintendent, and it’s about damn time.

Also the education dept website’s being scrubbed of his culture-war nonsense.

Stephen is nuts.

Mike Johnson says he would accept Hakeem Jeffries's invitation to debate on TV but he's already "cleaned his clock"

WATCH: CA Gov. Gavin Newsom calls BS on Republican healthcare promises by pointing out the recent damage they’ve done to our healthcare 🎯

WATCH: “There we go!”

🔥🧢 Holler hat-wearing @timmiller.bsky.social commends @aoc.bsky.social for mocking Stephen Miller’s insecurities, says it’s not about attacking masculinity but instead pointing out what masculinity should really be about. (Hint: Miller ain’t it)
