Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.

We’re getting very used to this but the statement is unusually unhinged.

I’m a career prosecutor who took a $25,000 check from an affiliated entity of Donald Trump’s while investigating Trump University and later left my lobbying firm to become Donald Trump’s personal impeachment lawyer, White House aide, and Attorney General. So don’t you DARE question my integrity.

This is not going well for Pam Bondi

Stephen froze like a deer in the headlights and pretended to have connection issues because he unintentionally gave away the game plan.

“Plenary authority is complete, absolute power over a specific area or issue, with no significant limitations."

Show people this clip. This is an insane slip up.

"This is supposed to be an oversight hearing" -- Schiff helpfully ticks through all of the incriminating questions -- and there are many of them -- that Bondi refused to answer during today's hearing

Schiff gets Bondi so flustered that she starts blurting things out while he details what a farce this "oversight" hearing has been and the Republican members' lack of interest in doing their jobs

And of course, it sounds so plausible, I seriously checked whether I had forgotten it, or the footnote was slightly wrong.

Opinion | Six surgeons general: It’s our duty to warn the nation about RFK Jr. We took an oath to declare dangers when we found them. We’re doing that again today.

From the 6 Surgeon Generals who served across administrations since President Bush: "Secretary Kennedy is entitled to his views. But he is not entitled to put people’s health at risk. He has rejected science, misled the public and compromised the health of Americans."

Mike Johnson ignores a question about when he'll swear in Rep.-elect Grijalva and walks away

Hey, @msnbc.com , @cbsnews.com.web.brid.gy @cnn.com

Eine Seniorin in Hannover muss aus ihrer Wohnung ausziehen, weil sie ihren Vermieter rassistisch beleidigt hat. Bei einem Gespräch im Dezember 2024 nannte sie ihn u.a. „Scheiß Ausländer“ u „Ihr Kanaken“ und sagte: „Bald kommt die AfD. Euer Leben wird genauso enden wie bei den Juden!“.

Trump on Chicago: "It's probably worse than almost any city in the world. You could go to Afghanistan, you could go to a lot of different places."

Opinion | How foreign powers are gaslighting Americans Russia, China and Iran pay no price for spreading false claims about the U.S.

L. Gordon Crovitz: The United States has unilaterally disarmed in the information wars. The Trump administration has ended key efforts to defend against Russian, Chinese and Iranian targeting of Americans with false claims. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

As someone who has worked on the blood-brain barrier for a large part of his last 40 years as a research scientist RFK Jr just needs to shut up. He should try and restrict his comments to things he is knowledgeable about. Now what on earth could that be.....🤔?

A ‘hostile takeover’: ousted CDC official raises alarm over RFK Jr approach to infectious disease Debra Houry speaks after testifying on eight months under Kennedy, who critics say shuns science and spreads falsehoods

Thank you Dr. Houry for calling a spade a spade. RFK Jr. is leading a hostile takeover of the CDC. ~80% of experienced leaders gone, science sidelined. The health of all Americans is on the line. #FireRFKJ #SaveTheCDC

A British academic is doing a daily Trump Tracker of all the moves he and his regime are making as they attempt to take US democracy into autocracy.

"This is a free resource, provided and maintained by Professor Christina Pagel in the UK and a few brilliant volunteers."

The end of federal funding for NPR stations cuts deep in Trump country It’s beyond bizarre that the federal funding cuts are going to devastate stations in places that put Trump back in offic

For communities in West Virginia and beyond, NPR has long served as a vital connector — linking residents to local and national news. Jeff Nesbit explains the harm of Trump’s decision to end federal funding for public broadcasting.

It really is staggering to see so many people willing to abandon our 249 year experiment in democracy for an increasingly unstable criminally convicted reality show charlatan.
