Throwback to Pam Bondi’s campaign ad for Florida AG:

“I’ll fight to put human trafficking monsters where they belong. Behind bars.”

The ad aged. The internet remembers.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

Kristi Noem has to go.
Gregory Bovino has to go.
Stephen Miller has to go.

'Are You High?' Joe Rogan Says He Never Considered Meeting Epstein An email released by the Justice Department as part of the Epstein files showed a former guest on Joe Rogan’s podcast offering to connect Jeffrey Epstein with the podcast host in 2017.

I honestly can’t remember any prior AG being this overtly disrespectful in a Congressional hearing.

They really think they’re never going to be in the minority.

Maybe I memory holed it, but personal attacks on members of Congress during testimony just seems so out of bounds.

This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

This is a very impactful post. Would you mind if I share it on my Facebook page with credit to you for the picture??

Yes, I mounted a sleeping bag on the curtain road to lower electricity and gas bill. The room is warmer and the gas blows less often. Less light.

Never expected to do such shenanigans in USA on basic living costs.

Back-to-school shopping was a nightmare.

Clothes, shoes, backpacks—all hit with new import taxes.

The administration is literally taxing your child's new sneakers and notebooks.

This is Trumpflation, a manufactured cost-of-living crisis.

#TrumpflationSucks

Chips are pushing $10 a bag and families are supposed to “just deal with it” while billionaires get tax cuts and Trump’s chaos keeps driving prices up.

This is the cost of his instability, and we’re all paying for it. #TrumpflationSucks

Trump's policies are raising costs for families & human rights abuses by an unchecked ICE are causing businesses to struggle, making things more unaffordable. Worse yet, this chaos is being paid for by Trump & GOP leaders cutting healthcare, which raises our costs even more. #TrumpflationSucks

Billionaires rake it in while the middle class gets crushed. Stock buybacks soar, CEOs cash out, and families fall behind on groceries, rent, and healthcare.
Prosperity for the top, pain for everyone else🤬
#TrumpflationSucks

Half the country sliding into recession, GDP slowing, manufacturing shrinking, exports down, debt exploding. Billionaires still partying while regular people feel the squeeze at the grocery store and the rent check.

Trump's tariffs cost American households $1,000 last year: Research group President Donald Trump’s tariffs cost the average American household $1,000 last year, according to new research from the nonpartisan Tax Foundation.

New research shows Trump’s tariffs quietly cost the average family about $1,000 last year, rising to $1,300 this year if they stay in place.

That’s a hidden tax on groceries, cars, and everyday goods. #TrumpflationSucks

The current affordability crisis is not an accident or a natural economic cycle. It is the direct result of specific policies enacted by Donald Trump and his Republican allies in Congress. Their choices made your life more expensive. #TrumpflationSucks

Tariffs are showing up on your bill hidden in the price of products that are significantly higher now than they were before tariffs. Imported agricultural machinery cost more. Businesses aren't taking the big hits; they're passing most of the tariffs to customers/consumers.

#TrumpFlationSucks

FML grocery prices just surged at the fastest rate since 2022. Paychecks are tapped out, carts are lighter, and families are forced to choose what to put back.

This is what economic failure looks like at the checkout line.
#TrumpflationSucks

I would say Trump's policies suck, but there is no policy. There is only harmful chaos, breaking norms, laws, and human bodies in the process.

What MAGA Can Teach Democrats About Organizing—and Infighting Republicans have become adept at creating broad coalitions in which supporting Trump is the only requirement. Democrats get tied up with litmus tests.

This @newyorker.com piece should be read carefully.

TOP LESSON: Our litmus tests have prevented our movement from coalescing. We need to be as welcoming as possible, though we may sometimes disagree, to get as many people as possible moving in the same direction.

Tell your senators to vote against additional ICE funding:

California Democrats urge government shutdown after federal agents kill Minnesota nurse More than half of California's Democratic legislative caucus called for a government shutdown over ICE shootings and some introduced bills to hold federal agents accountable.

“California Democrats urge government shutdown after federal agents kill Minnesota nurse.”

One reason this administration is unraveling over Alex Pretti isn’t just the lie. It’s that ICE killed a legal gun owner after years of saying “the left wants your guns.” Someone who looks like their base. Watching ICE do it shatters the script. Propaganda doesn’t survive reality. #Pinks #Momsky
