DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin to leave Trump administration The move comes as public opinion has turned on the administration’s hardline immigration policies.

Breaking Politico:

Tricia McLaughlin, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's spokesperson and a known spreader of disinformation, is expected to inform colleagues Tuesday that she's leaving DHS.

It sounds like she’s being pushed out to give Noem some cover. Noem is probably telling Trump that replacing her will fix the problem even though Noem is the problem. Trump has no idea what is happening.

One year ago: 90 deals in 90 days.

DONALD TRUMP: “I’ve been totally exonerated…”

REALITY:

• The DOJ has been shielding him.

• Multiple lawsuits, court documents, and allegations in the files name Trump.

• Not charged is not the same thing as exonerated.

Colbert Doesn’t Give an FCC About Calling Out CBS

My thoughts on Stephen A Smith potentially running for president are:

Could we please stop fucking electing celebrities and get back to the business of running the country with boring people who just want to do a good job.

Thanks

Bluesky is the new science Twitter, new study by @whysharksmatter.bsky.social and Julia Wester concludes!

BREAKING: @barackobama.bsky.social clarifies his position on aliens after his answer during the speed round of our interview went viral.

TBF, I've assumed there are aliens for years. How can there not be?

Our collective arrogance as humans makes the thought of other life forms heresy for some. That was understandable thousands of years ago but not now. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies.

Epstein files fallout takes down elite figures in Europe, while U.S. reckoning is muted Unlike in Europe, officials in the U.S. with ties to Epstein have largely held their positions of power.

Trump is shielded from accountability because his fellow criminals and other enablers refuse to hold him accountable. He is threatening to ignore term limits so that is not a factor. He’s likely to issue preemptive pardons all around if the heat gets to him.

You can trace the idea that "Real America is rural" through presidential candidates of the 19th and early 20th century always presenting themselves as being linked to the frontier or the farm or, at the very least, a small town.

But that was never entirely true then and not remotely true now.

Rural areas are generally made up of that hardcore MAGA base with a majority of older white residents. The younger people continue to flee rural areas as they have for many decades. Crimes are underreported so the rates don’t reflect reality.

Kristi Noem: "When it gets to Election Day, we've been proactive to make sure we have the right people voting, electing the right leaders to lead this country."

Right according to who? How on earth does she still have a job? Trump really picked the worst of a sorry lot for his push for a dictatorship.

Goldman’s Top Lawyer Departs Amid Revelations About Her Ties to Epstein

Expect much more of this type news because businesses concerned about be connected to csa will take action, especially those doing business in countries where pedos are reviled and not in power.

Watching the administration try to tweet their way through this Epstein fallout is really something.

Wise man once said: if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.

Trump posted a video depicting the first Black president and his wife as apes and his excuse for this is that it's a riff on The Lion King, a movie that does not feature any apes. Somehow this was a one-day story and we've already moved on.

The rope-a-dope continues. 🇯🇵

Japan must be wondering if Lutnick will even be around for the finale of this. Most of us in the US are betting he is gone soon. He has the Epstein stink all over him.

I think this everyday. Credit to whoever created it.

Homan: "Operation Metro Surge is ending. In the next week, we're going to deploy the officers here on detail back to their home stations or to other areas of the country where they're needed."

Didn’t Trump just say agents wouldn’t be deployed unless they were invited? If cities say they aren’t needed the agents should be sent to the unemployment line. We shouldn’t be using taxpayer money to pay agents sitting around their home stations.
