Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.

26 February 1925 | Dutch Jewish girl, Mirjam Rahel Fortuin, was born in Lochem.

She was deported to #Auschwitz from #Westerbork in November 1942. She did not survive.

Europe's Epstein Prosecutors: "Americans Will Greet Us As Liberators" This week's Dadaist graffiti news headlines!

Put DOWN the meme. ‘Europe’s Epstein Prosecutors: Greeted As Liberators’ — SATIRE. Halfway Cafe. Nobody said it. France is genuinely digging through Epstein files but some maniac welded fiction onto that fact. Verify before you amplify. Every. Damn. Time.

Must be nice to have a functioning Supreme Court.

Used heavily for spam accounts, bot networks, explicit content accounts, and mass-generated profiles on Bluesky. Get real. You’re losing the battle.

Satellite phones are the AM radio in my ‘72 pink Cadillac as preachers, prophets & Morrison’s ghost are swallowed by static under overpasses. The radio doesn’t die. It squawks. Cold satellite blinking behind the misty mountain. Blasting its signal into the void.

U2 have emerged from a long hiatus with a surprise six-song EP, 'Days of Ash,' where they address political flashpoints around the world, including ICE raids, the Iranian uprisings, the war in Ukraine, and Israeli settlements in the West Bank.

Hold tight, wait 'till the party's over
Hold tight, we're in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way
Burning down the house

Trump's EPA is revoking the "endangerment finding" on greenhouse gases. Here's what to know. The Trump administration says greenhouse gases emitted from sources like cars, trucks and power plants will no longer by regulated by the federal government.

Trump’s EPA just tore out the endangerment finding, the legal fuse that lets the government regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. Cut that wire and the rules on carbon from cars and power plants go dark. The smokestacks win. The air, the oceans, the future take the hit.

Trump’s DOJ tried to charge me with a crime simply for saying something they didn’t like. Think about that. This is after DOD already censured and threatened to demote me.

He wants to make an example out of me and scare Americans from speaking out against him. Don’t let it work.

Who is more patriotic, the man that says "Together, we are America" or the man that depicts black people as monkeys?

Green Day should shut up about politics and just stick to singing songs about politics.

Assumption is still the mother of all fuckups, squatting on the Democrats’ shoulders like a diseased albatross, shitting certainty into their ears while reality gnaws the bones. They keep relying on sanity and the sanctity of America.

911 doesn’t give you ICE. It gives you a tired dispatcher and a real lawman. Seeing Jake Paul confuse that in a public post is like seeing a man argue with a toaster, burn himself, and lose the fight. Every post of his is another IQ toe-tag.

New York City officials stand behind a podium during a press conference as a man in a dark suit and red tie speaks into microphones. The image caption identifies the speaker as Zohran Mamdani. A sign behind them reads “034 days, a new era,” beside an NYC banner, and The Guardian headline below states that rightwing critics blame Mamdani as New York snow fails to melt.

The nerve of Mamdani not melting the snow!

*I’m not a fan of memes; they tend to spread false and exaggerated info and are rarely fact-checked, but this headline wrote itself.

Why isn't news of Trump building vast concentration camps being treated as a national emergency?

Barack Obama went to Columbia and Harvard University.

Michelle Obama went to Princeton and Harvard University.

Donald Trump went to Epstein's Island.

Bless Billie Eilish For Saying “No One Is Illegal On Stolen Land” That’s damn right.

NEW: Bill and Hillary Clinton agreed to testify in the House Oversight Committee’s investigation into the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. (NYT)

WATCH — @pabloreports.bsky.social : “What do you make of Trump being mentioned 38,000 times in the Epstein files?”

@ericswalwell.bsky.social : “That’s 38,000 more times than most people I know, and that’s 38,000 reasons why people want to know why he won’t come in and sit for an interview.“

Liam home with his hat and backpack. A small miracle carried out of a cage by determined adults who refused to look away. Relief and rage in the same breath. No child belongs to concrete floors and razor wire. Thank you Joaquin for being determined.

I remember thinking after the so called assassination attempt on Trump that no one would dare fake something like that or burn human lives as collateral. Now? I wouldn’t put anything past Trump or the parasites clinging to his shadow.

Yup. Trump suggested Ilhan Omar staged her own attack in Minneapolis. Trump's latest in a string of attacks against Omar, Somalis, and Minnesotans.

This fucking guy.

— Who would fake an assassination attempt?

— Trump clears his throat and coughs awkwardly.
