The national average price of a gallon of gas was just announced. $3.20 per gallon. Math check: is that less than $2.00 per gallon?

BREAKING: The House just passed SB 5855, Sen. Valdez's bill to bar law enforcement from wearing face coverings.

I look forward to signing it once it reaches my desk.

It's a crime to lie to Congress, which is why Kristi Noem refused to answer this question about whether she's schtupping her adviser Corey Lewandowski.

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

Oh WOW! β€œTARGETED ENFORCEMENT” β€” the vaguest, slipperiest NON-ANSWER I’ve ever heard. You won’t say NO to ICE lurking near SCHOOL BUS STOPS? That’s not LAW AND ORDER, that’s FEAR CAMPAIGNING. KIDS aren’t COLLATERAL DAMAGE, Kristi. BUT WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM A PUPPY EXECUTIONER?!

SWALWELL: Has anyone been fired?

I want to know Secretary Noem's plan to stop masked ICE and CBP agents from killing American citizens like Renee Good and Alex Pretti. We can enforce our immigration laws without terrorizing American citizens and immigrant communities.

WALZ: What a 'stop payment' meant by what the administration did last week is 400,000 children without healthcare

COMER: We believe that's your fault

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

This is also why tech moved to subscription models.

They can't *dramatically* improve on PhotoShop. So if you have no reason to buy a new edition, they'll make you re-buy the old one, every single month.

Televisions hit a wall, too. How do you *dramatically* improve on a 95-inch, 8K television?

US contractors in Kuwait decry meager bunkers and pay cuts amid Iran war: β€˜We’re treated as expendable’ Employees say they have heard little from major defense contractor V2X Inc about safety and evacuation protocols

What do they expect under the administration of a greedy and corrupt rapist who bankrupted a casino? That they’d have rights? That the contracting companies that they chose to work for would have to follow any rules?

Why is Bessent even opining on this? He must be in the Epstein files.

Trump’s administration can’t agree on why they started war with Iran. They can't even agree that they started it..

Yup. There was also a group of strategists who ended up convincing voters that people like he, Manchin, and Sinema were the only people who could win in those districts.

This is dramatic. Total NC Dem voters 800K, total GOP ~620K. No wonder Trump's so desperate to rig the Nov. elections.

He prefers his cozy fantasy world to hearing the message & taking constructive action. His mind can conjure fantasies but not tackle reality. Megalomania meets senility.
