"It’s unclear what reasons FBI and Justice Department officials gave for shutting down the investigation." (cue sound of laughter, before it's declared illegal)

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna just compared Charlie Kirk to Martin Luther King, Jr., which is interesting given that Kirk called King an "awful" person. But, let the beatification continue.

Raskin: "He wants to condition the public to the idea that it's completely legitimate for the president not only to be ordering prosecutions of particular people over the objections of prosecutors, but he wants to condition the public to accepting the idea he can do that in public, openly."

Damn right — lock him up!!

My humble thanks to Reverend Adolphus C. Lacey and First Lady Cheryl Matthews Lacey for welcoming me at Bethany Baptist Church in Bed-Stuy this morning.

For everyone saying this is an impeachable offense and worse than Watergate: Of course it is. But that doesn’t matter in the slightest, because this GOP Congress has completely abdicated their duty and will never do anything to hold him accountable.

Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

Amazing photo of Windsor Castle taken last night

Merch before the funeral? I thought we were the ones disrespecting the family? The call is coming from inside the cult.

What the country really needs is mandatory mental-health screening for presidential candidates and nominees for cabinet posts. Like, stat.

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

Tim Walz: "I'll tell you what doesn't make people feel safe -- a tank next to Chipotle. It's stupid and it's for the cameras ... where are the 'don't tread on me' people?"

Something people aren't talking about enough is how often Charlie Kirk invoked the Fifth Amendment when testifying before Congress about the domestic terrorists he provided buses to get to Washington on January 6, 2021.

Why didn’t anyone immediately follow up with “what’s the population of the United States?”

This is moving in exactly the wrong direction! Education & meaningful activity in prison is crucial to reducing violence and improving outcomes

Jesse Waters needs to be fired TODAY!

You’d think after their cult leader tried to hang his own VP for not helping him steal an election, they’d be familiar with the notion of right on right crime. Yet it befuddles them to this day.

Maybe putting a podcaster and a Mar-a-Lago groupie in charge of the FBI wasn’t the best plan.

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

The president went on TV to attack political opponents and blame them for the killing of Charlie Kirk, even though we don’t know who shot him. If there is anything this man can do to worsen the situation, he will do it. Despicable.

He joked multiple times about Paul Pelosi getting smashed in the skull with a hammer.

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

Thank you, Senator Warren.
