Dear senators who think you can’t do anything,

Today, Senator Van Hollen - through diplomatic pressure - got a meeting with Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. So that thing you’re thinking about doing? DO IT.

There’s No Coming Back From Trump’s Tariff Disaster America was the world’s economic anchor. Thanks to the president, it may never have that role again.

"Whoever is elected the 48th president won’t be able to easily rebuild what Donald Trump is busy destroying. Countries can and will move on without the United States. Their firms will establish new supply chains and pursue other markets."

When the surgeon didn’t go to medical school and has no experience in the operating room but wants you to know the patient is healing after being disemboweled:

Statement from Attorney General Pamela Bondi on Federal Judge Blocking Deportations β€œTonight, a DC trial judge supported Tren de Aragua terrorists over the safety of Americans. TdA is represented by the ACLU. This order disregards well-established authority regarding President Trump’...

This so-called β€œpress release” from Pam Bondi is wildly inappropriate and factually and legally inaccurate.

How far the DOJ has fallen from grace…

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. β€œWhat can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

This is not law. It couldn’t withstand legal scrutiny.

Don’t comply in advance university presidents. General counsel, don’t panic. Do law, not vibes.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

For those of you who watched the video of an Idaho woman experiencing handmaidβ€˜s tale treatment, now is the time to decide what you would do in that situationβ€”whether it's you or whether you're nearby when this happens to someone else. We are in a moment where we all have to decide who we are.

BREAKING: RFK Jr, the most unfit and unqualified candidate for HHS Secretary, has just been confirmed by the Senate.

With a drunken abuser heading the Pentagon, and a convicted felon in the White House, America clearly isn't hiring its best.

While Musk runs the country, Trump had a productive weekend naming himself Chair of the Kennedy Center, picking the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, canceling pennies, demanding Google Maps rename Gulf of Mexico, invited only White immigrants from Africa, and saved plastic straws.
