Screenshot from X (formerly Twitter) showing the profile of user "N e v s Ivanka Trump" with handle @IvankaNews_, featuring a profile picture of a smiling blonde woman speaking into a microphone. The profile includes an American flag emoji and the X logo. Below, a list of account details: "Date joined September 2010"; "Account based in Nigeria" highlighted with a yellow circle and arrow pointing to it; "Verified since August 2024" with a checkmark; "11 username changes, last on August 2024" with an at-symbol; and "Connected via Nigeria App Store" with a globe icon. The composition is a clean, white-background interface in a vertical layout, emphasizing the Nigeria location as a key anomaly.

CASSIDY: I know it's titillating, but I think we need to move beyond the titillation

TAPPER: This isn't about titillation. This is about the fact that you are the chairman of the health committee and you voted to confirm somebody that by all accounts is actually making America less healthy

His “peace plan” is a Russian wish list which requires Ukraine to surrender huge parts of their country and remain vulnerable to future Russian invasions.

…and he’s mad they are not thanking him for it.

the one part of this awful video I found inspiring is the moment when the cam pans back and you see an array of upstanding Americans with their smartphones out filming these gutter thugs. that's really the symbol of the opposition. the smartphone and its embedded video cam.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Even in the movies, scenes of the White House getting blown up by invading aliens or terrorists feel emotionally unsettling.

It’s the People’s House after all.

So imagine having to witness its destruction in real life…and the culprit is the President.
