I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

Scores of staffers at the White House National Security Council have been abruptly dismissed as part of a sweeping overhaul that slashes the staff from over 300 to just 50. The move shifts the NSC’s role from policymaking to simply carrying out the president’s directives.

New head of Social Security, hired from Wall Street, tells staff he had to Google the job when he was offered it Newly sworn-in Social Security chief Frank Bisignano, who previously was a Wall Street executive, told staffers he had to Google the SSA job when it was offered to him.

β€œWhat the heck’s the commissioner of Social Security?"

That's a real question from Frank Bisignano...the commissioner of Social Security.

Millions of Americans depend on Social Security. They should be able to trust that the head of the agency even knows what the job is.

Autogenocide is a word nerd's word, no doubt. But it is remarkably descriptive of the situation we find ourselves in. Credit to Heather Marsh for "insisting" that this is the right word.

Warnock: You literally have, in real time, the leader of another nation-stateβ€”in this case, South Africaβ€”there to talk to him about trade, and he’s saying, β€œSorry, Mr. President, we don’t have a plane to offer you.” And you see why we have an Emoluments Clause in the first place.

Frost: Tonight the people stealing are not folks with tattoos and hoodies but people wearing suits and ties and congressional pins sitting in the capitol now, not in some alley wrapped in darkness but the United States congress wrapped in the flag. It is disgusting and we will never forget this.

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes

Adriana Smith’s story MUST be told so America can understand what’s at stake when draconian abortion laws like the one in GA keep a brain dead pregnant woman on life support just so the fetus can be delivered.

What kind of dystopian hellscape has Dobbs created?
