Rachel Scott is the journalist who asked the most pointed questions of Trump as a candidate in 2024. She does her job well.

Rachel Scott is the only reporter ever to call out Vladimir Putin to his face.

it’s pretty funny that Duffy is simultaneously

1. scolding passengers for not wearing fancy clothes while flying

2. supporting airport gyms so passengers can be sweaty and gross while flying

both of these proposals are idiotic but the direct contradiction is next level

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

NEW: Carol Loennig tells Nicoll Wallace on MSNOW that the DOJ intends to try and indict Letitia James a THIRD time.

The trouble with that is these multiple tries help James prove her vindictive and selective prosecution bid, and bolster a case to get the grand jury materials.

Opinion | A sickening moral slum of an administration Regarding Venezuela, Ukraine and much more, Trump and his acolytes are worse than simply incompetent.

Conservative columnist George Will gets it.

In a piece titled "A sickening moral slum of an administration," Will writes:

"Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth seems to be a war criminal. Without a war. An interesting achievement."

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.

Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income β€” so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.

The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

This is patently false.

The Trump-Noem DHS is detaining American citizens.

And they’re doing it during violent, indiscriminate raids and using excessive force.

None of us are safer for it.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally β€” almost certainly incomplete β€” includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

Now Trump Is Threatening Naturalized Americans He’s not just bashing refugees and illegal immigrants. He’s going after U.S. citizens born in other countries.

"There’s no need for dog whistles anymore. The government of the United States now openly stands for bigotry. It’s not just closing our borders; it’s targeting Americans."

Congressman Henry Cuellar was indicted for money laundering, bribery, and conspiracy, allegedly taking about $600,000, mostly from Azerbaijan, to influence U.S. policy.

President Donald Trump pardoned Cuellar, because Trump supports money laundering, bribery, and conspiracy.

Trump Frees Fraudster Just Days Into Seven-Year Prison Sentence

Trump just commuted the 7-year sentence ofΒ David Gentile,Β a private equity leader who helped defraud thousands of people out of some $1.6 billion, almost as soon as his prison stint began.

Interesting that he omits the fact that the investigation into former Honduras president Juan Orlando Hernandez began during Trump’s first term

So technically today’s pardon would reverse a Trump witch hunt

But really, it's just another example of his "Biden Bad/Trump Good" fantasy

President Trump has pardoned former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was serving a 45-year prison sentence for drug trafficking.

"Meanwhile, fishermen on boats in the Caribbean who we have never been tried or charged with anything are shot and killed from the air."
