Ted Lieu to Kristi Noem: “I just showed you a video with ICE officers at a school drop-off location — your refusal to commit to stopping these operations at or near schools & drop-off locations is why you're failing — so I'm going to show you this video that encapsulates why you're failing”

Good news that the execrable Kristi Noem has been fired, but Trump should really be firing Stephen Miller, the primary engineer of the vile ethnic reengineering agenda and murderously violent civic tensions that are sucking all of them into a bottomless political sinkhole, Trump included.

Move the World Cup to another country and don’t let the US participate. Take away the Olympics right now, and don’t let the US participate. US athletes should not be allowed to compete under their national flag. US teams in international competitions should have their license to compete revoked.

Proving yet again one of my basic rules on navigating Trumpism: He will always replace an incompetent person with someone more incompetent.

I didn't think there was anyone in Trump's orbit that was dumber than Noem, for the exception of Boepert. But Trump seems to know just where to find them.

Kristi Noem has used $200M+ in taxpayer funds to pay firms with close ties to her top aides to make anti-immigrant PSAs.

Her luxury jets will cost taxpayers nearly $300M.

Trump's lackeys rail against "government waste," but are happy to pilfer taxpayer funds for themselves.

Of course he is. They seem to be inseparable. Good buddies and colleagues have to stick together. Share a blanket. Collaborate and commisserate. That kind of stuff.

The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

Someone needs to make a list including Jim Jordan who took up for Kristi Noem while she was being questioned by the committee and keep posting their names so they’ll never be voted in again!!!

Guns? These armed gangs, that call themselves militias today, are not regulated at all, yet the 2nd Amendment specifically uses the words "well regulated."

Someday he'll fire RFK Jr. too, because he's a savvy politician, and RFK Jr. is viscerally disgusting to the human sensibility. When he does - and he will - public health will have to grapple with the fact that it was doable, and we could have tried harder, sooner

A small group of Democratic lawmakers have just proposed legislation to bar members of Congress from profiting off prediction markets, citing elected officials' possession of "material nonpublic information."

The drunk from Fox News stated at a briefing today that dead American soldiers are a PR problem. There was stunned silence from everyone, including some of his own staff. He should never have quit A. A. Would it be rude of me to call this loser a piece of shit? Probably.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
