WOW

This will mean a lot to some US Capitol Police families

Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) just now at hearing: "All those thugs have actually been pardoned, yet we haven't thanked the Capitol Police officers"

Dean Obeidallah (@deanobeidallah) Exactly right from Sen Chris Van Hollen in response to Netanyahu now bragging that his work of 40 years pressuring to destroy Iran is finally happening thanks to Trump. You can watch Netanyahu's vide...

Rubio Today: It’s false to say I said the U.S. had to attack because Israel was going to attack. That’s not what I said.

Rubio Yesterday: We knew Israel was going to strike Iran, and that would trigger attacks on U.S. forces. If we didn’t act first, Americans would suffer higher casualties.

SCHIFF: Are you saying it's just fortuitous that $143m went to a subcontractor that you worked w/ extensively as gov of SD?

KRISTI NOEM: I had no choosing of contractors.

S: Can you state for record that you or Lewandowski had no communication with any agency involved?

N: To best of my knowledge

The imagery… our leader, a serial rapist of young girls, murdered these girls as he danced! Is there any going back?

BLUMENTHAL: Is the agent who shot Ms Martinez sill on the job?

NOEM: Our officers conduct operations every day-

B: Is he still on the job carrying a gun?

N: I dunno

B: Would you agree he shouldn't be?

N: I'll get back to you

B: I think Americans would find it absolutely terrifying if he is

The vote on Rep. Massie and my WPR comes down to this. Are you with Lindsey Graham who was for the regime change war in Iraq, Libya and now Iran, or are you with those Americans who are tired of being dragged into wars in the Middle East and want us to focus on jobs and healthcare at home?

I feel her fury.

Tear him apart @democrats.org @democrats-judiciary.house.gov

Patriots! Rise up! Vote YES! #vote #virginia #VoteYES

It’ll take a backward, racist, motherfucker, like Tillis to draw the parallel, but bridge it, he did.

Tillis to Noem: "A 14 month old dog is basically a teenager in dog years. You decided to kill that dog bc you hadn't invested the appropriate training, then you have the audacity to write a book & say it's a leadership lesson! ... Those are bad decisions not unlike what happened in Minneapolis"

Someone founds his balls… well, maybe one. Hey Rep Johnson, need a testicle?

after absolutely eviscerating Kristi Noem and calling for her resignation, Tillis is applauded. He thens threatens to hold up nominees if she doesn't stop stonewalling him. My God.

@hillaryclinton.bsky.social yes, she is!

🤥 @KristiNoem today: “I didn’t call Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist.”

FLASHBACK: she sure did 👇🏽

America loves a “disaster spoils white people vacation” story. Remember when the tsunami in Asia killed 227,898 people and the film Hollywood made was about white people on holiday - they changed the real life family name from the Spanish Belón to Bennett to make it REALLY white

wow -- Tillis goes ballistic on Noem, telling her "what we've seen is a disaster under your leadership"

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?

NOEM: Yes

WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?

NOEM: No.

So the State Department is forcing everyone to immediately leave the region but is also refusing to help people leave the region.

The strike itself is illegal and disastrous but their lack of readiness for what comes next is unforgivable as well.

Incompetence everywhere.

If his rich friends can privately fund his ballroom, they can also fund his war in Iran.

KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?

NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'

KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was

Please don’t forget to vote today! Texas, Arkansas, and North Carolina are kicking off the 2026 midterm cycle with their primary elections.

Wow. The U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem tells Americans they’re on their own.

That’s exactly what war criminal Rubio said. “I didn’t want to, Mom, but I was already beating on him so I just shot my gun w/ everyone else…”

He has leprosy.

It would be curtains for him!
