The man who’s pretending that he’s burning down the universities in order to protect Jewish students:

Border Czar Tom Homan says that once Congress passes Trump's budget bill, he'll have more money than ever to carry out arrests and deportations: "You think we're arresting people now? You wait 'til we get the funding to do what we gotta do."

What an unbelievable asshole.

How utterly shorn of dignity and self-respect must one be to speak this way about … Donald Trump and Elon Musk?

After Cuts, a Kentucky Weather Office Scrambles for Staffing as Severe Storms Bear Down

Younger folks around here might shocked to learn that once upon a time Bill Clinton let a few campaign donors have a sleepover at the White House & the national media spent months treating it as the greatest scandal in the history of the republic

The firing of the Librarian of Congress is worse than many appreciate. The Librarian is appointed for a ten year term by the president with the advice and consent of the Senate. The position is nonpartisan and runs the critically important Congressional Research Service.
