This is also a magnificently strange statement to make when our primary partner in the illegal war is Israel!

Nah! He's probably favored to win re-election

As Kristi Noem exits post, her ‘ICE Barbie’ shadow remains The former Homeland Security chief made her steely-eyed and polished image synonymous with deportation and the department.

Steve-O was on Joe Rogan's show trying to defend trans people and Rogan went off, he called trans people "fucking perverts" and "mass shooters" who have done the majority of school shootings.

Jon Tester keeps it real: "I don’t believe that, as none of us were running. He fucked his own party"

Exclusive: Daines says his stunning exit was designed to avoid ‘a very expensive’ race The Montana Republican sat down with Semafor to talk about the backstory behind his sudden, field-clearing retirement from Congress.

BACKSTORY: in interview Sen. Steve Daines says he closely worked with White House to coalesce behind Kurt Alme, avoid a primary and withdraw from race at last minute to block Democrats Tester, Bullock or Schweitzer from running. Alme didn’t even know White House was vetting him

Thank you. Now just gotta wait to see what happens to Tony.

I was not patronizing you at all. Apologies for coming off as a jackass. I was agreeing with you. But I came off as a putz. I was saying I remember all this and it's been a long time rolling.

Thank you. Five for Six

Five for six? Not bad. And Herrera might beat Tony in a runoff. I'll take it.

You still gotta pay for the barbershop. But I've had my haircut in the Senate barbershop a few times. It's nice, but still costs a penny.

Russia is kind of boned because they no longer have Assad in Syria and Maduro in Caracas. Its focus on Ukraine means it can't support those proxies as much as it once did.

The administration calling it a war gives away the game

Democrats who voted against the War Powers resolution:
-Cuellar

Robin Kelly and Jasmine Crockett are deep in conversation right now. Kelly is running her own campaign where she is trailing in third for Senate in Illinois.

Pelosi giving a forceful speech on the war powers act on Iran. People forget, she not only votes against the Iraq War: SHE WHIPPED AGAINST IT.

True. The majority are the ones who didn't do a thing and it took Thom Tillis raising hell and Kennedy asking a good question to axe her.
