Tariffs made the ex-im balance WORSE

People cannot actually be this stupid...

Elimination of emissions standards was one of the pretty clear policy stakes of the 2024 election and it received about 1% as much coverage as whether Tim Walz retiring from the national guard after 21 years was cowardly.

It is absolutely a choice.

Always finding new lows for our country

Oh to be a fly on the wall of the Fox News creative meaning as this brain trust of C students kicks around how they're going to launder the world's most infamous child rapist into just a normal guy....

Guess we found the MN scapegoat….

Decades of scientific advancement lost

Trump's big, ugly budget megabill gives ICE more agents than the FBI, more jails than the federal Bureau of Prisons, and a larger budget than most countries' militaries. It does this by stripping food away from children, the disabled, and the working poor. Not one more penny.

Probably worth reminding folks that Walz & Ellison were the first to discover this fraud back in 2021, and they pulled the benefits, but the offending org sued in Federal Court and the court forced MN to resume paying benefits

Just take a look at this and remember, Pam Bondi's concern here was not with any of the victims of these crimes but with the nosy Democrats who actually gave a shit about them.

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

Notice that Bondi doesn’t turn around.

It's the party of Pedophiles

This guy has always been a quack

"Images obtained by CBS News appear to show the zip ties and bruised wrists of Anabel Romero's 14-year-old daughter SueHey, a U.S. citizen who was tending to her 6- and 8-year-old siblings when the agents descended on the crowd in military-style gear and herded them into a confined area."

Probably worth noting that after Raskin, Khanna and Massie commented on the redactions, DOJ re-released several of these documents without the redactions Khanna didn't perform some herculean feat here, he just read the updated version from the DOJ website

Pepper spray launched at a moving vehicle of US citizens, and NOTHING happened to the ICE goon that did it. No investigation, no suspension, no counseling on his record, he kept working, kept violating procedure and law.

Calling out fascism is not threatening to anyone but fascists.

BONUS RULING: Judge Thomas Johnston, a George W. Bush appoiintee in West Virginia, used a recent ruling to warn of the dangers of defying due process for immigrants because of what it could also mean for Americans. It's worth a read. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I'm grateful that Kyle surfaced all these extraordinary opinions slamming the Trump administration for the illegal detention of immigrants. This one leaps out in part because the judge is warning us that abuses being inflicted on immigrants now are a preview of what could be unleashed on citizens.

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

tfw you leave Plato’s cave awfulannouncing.com/nfl/pat-mcaf...

Pour one out for every professional political pundit, writer, consultant whatever that has spent the last decade trying to pretend that the Trump phenomenon was about trade or opiates and not a big chunk of white america losing its mind over having a black president bsky.app/profile/kyle...

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

there's something unholy about the Trump administration being laser focused on "fraud" while Trump pardons an endless clown car of fraudsters and bilks taxpayers at every opportunity. it's just transparently absurd.

Operation Metro Surge is not making Minnesota safer. Today's announcement is a step in the right direction, but we need a faster and larger drawdown of forces, state-led investigations into the killings of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, and an end to this campaign of retribution.

For those keeping score at home:

Its really a disgrace this guy was ever given a job in DOJ

This isn’t some anonymous tip. This is sworn testimony, under penalty of perjury, from someone who said Trump threatened to kill her if she exposed Epstein’s sexual abuse.

Local news is reporting that Le contracted with DOJ precisely because ICE is breaking the law so often and so seriously that DHS is being hammered with habeas petitions. Some people get what they deserve.

This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.

This is now without question the biggest politico-financial scandal in United States history. Teapot Dome was trivial in comparison.

ROFL

In the last 48 hours, Musk's reactions to the Epstein release show exactly why he bought Twitter. He's used the platform to call coverage of his emails with Epstein as "lies," elevated his fans who have defended him, and gotten positive reinforcement from his AI chatbot.

ICE now confirming that there is a measles outbreak at the Texas concentration camp where young Liam was held.

Gassing kids is bad, no?

Scamming the Federal govt as POTUS. The founders are rolling in their graves

Yeah hey JD remember that? What ever happened with that?

Remember when Musk accused Trump of being in the Epstein files - pretty damning! - and then deleted the claim? Anyway... abcnews.go.com/Politics/tru...

Trump's #1 concern is protecting the perpetrators of sexual violence, not the victims. This much has been clear from the start.

This gets us one step closer toward the final form of Tesla, where the only thing it sells is pieces of paper that say “we swear this isn’t a Ponzi scheme.”

"I'm coming to Boston and I'm bringing hell with me." --Homan in February "Do I expect violence to escalate? Absolutely." -- Tom Homan in March "I actually thought about getting up and throwing that man a beating right there in the middle of the room" -- Homan in July, referring to a D congressman

To paraphrase Dave Barry, someone who is nice to you, but cruel to most of America, is not a nice person. Narcissists tend to like superficially charming but awful people because the superficial charm satisfies their need for admiration.

Rand Paul: "After seeing this, if you call this a good shooting you aren't watching the video. This was a real tragedy and a mistake. The man had been disarmed and then shot 10 times ... if we say things that are obviously not true, the situation is going to get worse."

Of the biggest scandals in US history just this week, I think I’d rank them: 1) Federal paramilitaries invade US city based on racist lies, murder US citizens 2) Slush fund for the president from stolen foreign resources held in Qatar 3) Whatever FBI and DNI are doing re: 2020 election in Georgia
