We've all heard that there is no free lunch.

Well, guess what?

There is no free 747 either.

Now that’s one he would be eligible for!

Do they have a prize for blowing up boats in the Caribbean and then bragging that people who made their livelihood fishing there for generations are now afraid to go out on the water?

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol

This administration is flooding the zone so furiously that people have largely lost track of the lethal attacks on boats in the Caribbean, the gov’t shutdown, the economy, failed release of the Epstein files & so much else. It’s a tactic of would-be strongmen.

Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen.bsky.social · 3d

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

And an incompetent smug Secretary of Defense!

When people are hired, not for their honesty or competency, but for their ability to be snarling trolls on TV for the delight of their immature and unpleasant boss, you get an AG like Pamela Jo Bondi.

When even Marjorie Taylor Greene jumps ship on health care, you know the regime’s rot runs deep. Authoritarians don’t care if you can see a doctor…they care that you obey. Power first. People last.

Federal agents hurled tear gas at people on a busy Logan Square street, outside a grocery store and near an elementary school.

Reckless, undertrained ICE hires are a danger to everyone. This is terrorism against US citizens.

When a president sends troops into American cities to “restore order,” what he’s really doing is testing obedience. Portland and Chicago aren’t war zones…they’re warning shots. Authoritarians don’t announce takeovers. They practice them. One city at a time. However, each practice destroys families.

Mike Johnson is keeping the House in recess not just next week but the week after that as well. Sure, the shutdown has something to do with it. But, also, he doesn't have to confirm Adelita Grijalva as long as the House is not in session which delays voting on releasing the Epstein files.

These so-called "DEMOCRAT AGENCIES"...

-Ensure our food is safe to eat
-Keep our air and water clean
-Alert us to natural disasters
-Protect us from financial fraud and scammers

Remember what Trump is actually attacking.

After hearing the Howard Lutnick interview on EPSTEIN, it is seeming more likely that the Trump shutdown is a diversion from whatever is in those files.

RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!

#Agirlfrommass🦋 @bxrgrl.bsky.social · 8d

Don’t think he even knows the difference anymore.

It’s fake unless it’s in their favor of course🤡

Rep. Rich McCormick dismisses a Washington Post poll showing Americans are blaming Republicans for the shutdown: "Polling is not very accurate because the pollsters generally get out of it what they want. I don't trust those polls."
