The condescension of two-bit Attorney General Pamela Jo Bondi today underscores that the only thing this administration excels at is a complete lack of self-awareness.

Tomorrow the Epstein survivors will storm Capitol Hill to demand release of the files. I hope new Congresswoman Adelita Grijalva is sworn in at their press conference by another judge or official who is authorized to do so (doesn’t have to be the Speaker).

I wouldn’t advise anyone in Portland to walk your dog near this building.

The complete and total bullshit about this is that it should have been the FIRST question asked of Johnson. It is a disgrace that he was not asked about this before he ended his press conference. Unbelievable that he continues to get away with this. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.

When people are hired, not for their honesty or competency, but for their ability to be snarling trolls on TV for the delight of their immature and unpleasant boss, you get an AG like Pamela Jo Bondi.

Way to go, Chicago, more of this! Kristi Noem is upset that ICE agents in Chicago are being β€œdenied entry” to restrooms and lunch spots.

Greta Thunberg is obviously a heroic person by any measure, she is quite obviously the kind of person who any decent society would hope they see their reflection in. It is remarkable how cruelty is so common place that people will openly hate her, and in really vicious ways, with no shame.

NBC, CBS, ABC, Wall Street Journal, Fox, the New York Times, the Washington Post, and a host of other collaborators are responsible for bringing fascism to America

What's happening in Chicago is not normal.

The arrest of Alderperson Fuentes is just the latest example of how far Noem and Bovino are willing to go to ignore the rule of law. We must all speak 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

Dear Martha,

The pissed off grandmas have us surrounded. Soon they will stab us to death with their knitting needles, eat our flesh, and make onesies for their grandbabies out of our skins. And if we're very, very lucky, they'll do in that order.

Give my guns my love.

ICE admitted when they conducted their large Chicago raid that 50–60% of those they detained were "targeted".

Think about that.

It means that 40–50% of them were kidnapped WITHOUT warrants or any probable cause or reasonable suspicion to apprehend or detain them. HALF of those apprehended.

Hope the Chicago PD arrests them for urinating in public.
