Department of Justice tries to use GOP shutdown to stall key cases

(solemnly) You've had mail.

There is a certain kind of Army officer who, after the excitement of company command, finds his career stalled, and who perhaps leaves the service as a major in the National Guard filled with bitterness and resentment. He may then dream of one day being in a position to make all the superior officers who failed to appreciate his leadership qualities, his insight, his sheer fitness stand to attention and hear him lay down the law about what it is to be an officer, and threaten to fire those who do not meet his standards. In this respect, and this respect only, on that stage Pete Hegseth was living the dream. In all other respects, however, he was ridiculous...

I did not expect this kind of fire from Eliot Cohen, but he has Hegseth absolutely pegged www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Trump has slammed the doors of government shut and Republicans scattered like cowards from D.C.

Their ransom? More billionaire tax breaks while families face skyrocketing healthcare costs. The Trump budget is sabotage.

America says HELL NO. #DonaldTrumpsShutdown

Photo from the January 6th attack on the Capitol Building, featuring hundreds of Trump supporters, mobbing the building

Fact is, the January 6 attack on my Capitol Building did WAY more damage to the United States than the 9/11 terror attacks.

Important to remember this, moving forward; the insurrection attempt the U.S. President incited cemented the nation’s impending doom.

Witnessing that demise, now.
God bless 🇺🇸

BASH: You mentioned $1.5 trillion. $1 trillion of that is to reverse Medicaid cuts that you put in the big beautiful bill

MIKE JOHNSON: Medicaid reforms, not cuts.

BASH: It's less spending. You can call it what you want.

I just supported @ww2.kqed.org.web.brid.gy and @npr.org to the tune of a few lattes per month. You can support your local station and NPR now, too - now more than ever, we need trusted sources of news and information outside corporate control and right-wing influence

When the Supreme Court let Trump fire an appointee to the NLRB-despite a law preventing her dismissal

It said Fed Governors are unique and shouldn’t be removed except for cause

So it’s no surprise SCOTUS let Lisa Cook stay

But it’s a rare instance of the Roberts court upholding governmental norms

I am heartbroken by the news of a mass shooting at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc, Michigan. No one should fear the threat of gun violence in their place of worship, at their school, or anywhere.

Looks like the same thing my grandmother put on ceramics that she made at the senior citizen retirement home ceramic class. Although the ginger jars she made are bangin' she got her supplies from Michaels arts and craft store.

That’s not shocking.. it’s been a lie all along to try to justify white nationalism.

The British know how to annihilate a SOB with such creativity and sophistication. I would love to tip my hat and share a pint with the genius that thought this up.

Well, we're not lowering shit in Schaumburg.

Exactly! No commentary needed. Just quoting him sets them off. But truth and reality is something MAGA has never been able to tolerate. It's offensive to them.

You're not wrong! I'm with this 100%.

Maybe I am wrong? If someone comes on here and justifies and supports Charlie Kirk I am blocking the mother fucker. I do not condone what happened to him. I do have a problem with someone justifying his beliefs as opinions. He was a real piece of shit spreading hate and misinformation.

"I think it's worth it, to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year, so that we can have a 2nd Amendment to protect our other God given rights"

- Charlie Kirk

This disgusts me for so many reasons.

Tyler Robinson, a white registered Republican who dressed up as Trump for Halloween.

All the conservatives are trying to spin it on all the right-wing sites that in "no way is he one of us."

It is always one of them.

Always.

Trump can't hide his long legacy of inciting violence No president has appealed to Americans' darkest impulses or sought to turn them on one another like Trump has.

This is the real shooter.

Republicans are martyring Charlie Kirk and will turn his killer Tyler Robinson into a mentally ill loon.

But it's Trump that fuels those bullets, and Trump's mouth that keeps fueling the hatred that loads them.
