It's an absurd press conference because they have to pretend that the crap pouring out of his mouth has meaning. But the main takeaway is that he is accusing the Supreme Court of disloyalty to the United States and is ignoring their ruling.

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today.

It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files.

Just wow.

This Trump threat is now completely meaningless. "Don't do what I say and you'll lose re-election!" Yeah, well, that's going to happen anyway.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

This is Barb Kirkmeyer, a Republican running for governor of Colorado. She led a movement to try to literally secede from the state after Democrats passed modest gun safety laws after the Aurora theater massacre. Here she is with a vigilante murderer so everyone here knows the company she keeps.

Let us not forget, it was the same administration that reduced us to wearing trash bags as protective gear while we watched the hospital go up in flames around us during the pandemic that just murdered one of our own on the streets in broad daylight. As a nurse & as a person, I will never forgive. I will never forget. I will never back down. This was never about border control.
This is about total control.

For our fellow Coloradans, Republicans Gabe Evans, Lauren Boebert, Jeff Crank and Jeff Hurd all voted to fund this. Democrats Diana DeGette, Joe Neguse, Brittany Pettersen and Jason Crow all voted against funding this.
