Just today, Jeffries has praised Trump on his signature issue, and excused a pardon Trump handed to a corrupt Democrat.

He couldn’t be less up to the moment if he tried.

Your Mail Truck Is Probably 30 Years Old. Its Electric Replacement Is Finally Arriving After at least 31 years of diligent public service, your local mail truck deserves a nice retirement package. It may finally get one.

"These vehicles will spend their whole lives operating around people’s homes and neighborhoods, so it’s good that they now come with automatic emergency braking, rear pedestrian detection & a backup camera. Air conditioning will also make a huge difference for drivers" insideevs.com/news/780498/...

Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) says Pete Hegseth should "resign immediately" if it's true he gave a directive to “kill everybody” in a strike on boats in the Caribbean, including a second strike to kill survivors of the first strike.

“If the reports are true, Pete Hegseth likely committed a war crime."

Can the war on coal still be won? Ten years ago, the U.S. was on track to phase out coal by 2030, thanks to the Sierra Club. Now Trump and AI are delaying the fuel’s decline.

"utilities have proposed a total of 200 new gas plants . . . Many experts estimate that AI will increase power demand as much as 10% nationally, but the Sierra Club has calculated that the various utility proposals would increase power capacity by more than 100%" www.canarymedia.com/articles/cle...

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

The Quick and Shameful Death of Biden’s Biggest Policy It was far too easy for Republicans to kill the Inflation Reduction Act. Where did those who crafted it go wrong?

Again: Impeach Hegseth and Trump for war crimes.

132 members of the House have law degrees and surely could write Articles in their sleep.

All of them swore an oath to support and defend the Constitution.

Write the Articles tonight.

"Western civilization," the font, the 11 stars - 11 states in the confederacy, for the record.

Why is this never news? Why are we letting our government agencies do this sort of thing while the news agencies report on hallucinated trade deals and act like everything is normal

“Career officials in the office overseeing sanctions at the Treasury Department have at times learned details of Witkoff’s meetings with Moscow from their British counterparts.”

The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.

Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.

They are paying more because their INCOME has increased astronomically, where the income of the bottom half has

Gallup Nov. Trump approval: 36% approve, 60% disapprove, a 5 point drop in approval and 6 point increase in disapproval since Oct. Several points below my approval trend across all polls which puts approval at 40.5%, disapproval at 56.1%

Here is Gallup approval history since FDR

I don’t think I’ve ever seen him at 60% disapproval. He should resign or be impeached.

Gov Walz is saying what we’ve been saying. If the president is this erratic, then the public deserves to know what is going on. Four simple words: show the MRI results.

If Trump is fine, prove it. If he isn’t, step aside.
