Can’t stress enough that it’s actually extremely economically beneficial for everybody in a community if fewer people overdose and die

Pardoned Capitol rioter who said Jan. 6 officer 'needs to be put down' charged Pardoned Jan. 6 rioter Jake Lang has been charged with making threatening statements about one of the officers he faced off with at the Capitol

Pardoned Jan. 6 rioter Jake Lang has been charged with making threatening statements about one of the officers he faced off with at the U.S. Capitol. He told Metropolitan Police Cmdr. Jason Bagshaw that he should be “put down like a dead dog” and "hung" in front of the Capitol.

Really takes a lot to make Kaitlan Collins look like a brave journalist

COLLINS: I mean, the president actually ran on not going to war Iran

SHEEHY: So, every single policy decision the president makes has to be the centerpiece of a campaign speech?

COLLINS: I think if you say you're not going to do something, and then you do it ...
