The literal reading of this statement is Pam Bondi is planning extrajudicial executions of random protesters.

Republicans could draw 19 more House seats after an upcoming Supreme Court ruling Many experts are forecasting the end of a key provision of election law โ€” enabling Republicans to shore up their advantage in the House, according to a new report.

NEW: Next week, the Supreme Court will re-hear a case that could allow Republicans to create 19 new safe U.S. House seats by gutting whatโ€™s left of the Voting Rights Act.

The far-right majority may finally be ready to finish the VRA off.

Hereโ€™s whatโ€™s at stake. โฌ‡๏ธ

More history from this Nazi adulated by the Trump team. These are explicit, proud Nazis who scream and cry and call every referee they can find when you quote their Nazism back to them.

It just moved the tax burden off of the billionaires and certain groups and into a different column paid by the lower and middle everyday people. That's why they did it. It's a tax.

JPM DESK: โ€œ.. the US budget deficit has not shrunk despite the tariff revenue.

Democrats should go on TV to say they need to impeach Trump because of the cocaine-fueled pedophilia parties that he holds in the East Room of the White House with his friends in MS-13.

I mean, if he gets to lie shamelessly, why not them?

Why is he even invited? Involved? Even in the room? He's as shady and compromised as it gets. He's probably a traitor and almost certainly paid by outside sources. Should he even be in the area of government? Security clearance?

Someone should put a vehicle on the streets in Portland with live cameras 24/7 and broadcast it to however many streaming services and opportunities available. Plaster the website all over every MAGA favorite social. Just drive around Portland and document the non war.

If you are a federal worker, there are several credit unions and other financial institutions that are offering zero interest loans during the government shutdown.

Jimmy Kimmel: "Trump was confused by old footage of the Portland protests from 2020, that were being played on a loop by Fox News, so he sent in the National Guard to stop a protest that ended five years ago. God forbid they ever show him footage of Pearl Harbor โ€” Japan will be in a LOT of trouble."

I canโ€™t believe I have to say this, but historically, masked men who kidnap families in the middle of the night are usually not the good guys.

75% of Labor Department workers are furloughed during Trumpโ€™s shutdown.

That means millions of workers will have fewer watchdogs on the beat to ensure job safety, crack down on wage theft, and enforce labor protections.

And the so-called โ€œpro-worker presidentโ€ is to blame.
