Sens. Schumer, Merkley, Murray, and Peters are calling for the resignation of OMB Director Russell Vought.

"By impounding billions of dollars … and aggressively pursuing the illegal use of pocket rescissions, Vought has done everything in his power to gut the federal government piece by piece."

Even as FBI is being downsized, it must allocate more of its resources to the only part of the govt that is growing: immigration enforcement.
The scale of this growth is hard to comprehend. DHS has a slushfund of $10B - bigger than the old ICE budget - to pay other agencies and state & local cops.

If you don’t know, through the history of America, who the most violent Americans are, you are most certainly a sheep.

Only one thing could top the honor of speaking at the No Kings rally, and that's the honor of speaking at No Kings 2. See you October 18th!

Mr. Newsom, @governor.ca.gov do something before it's too late! Don't allow California, & other Blue states become prison camps for innocent Americans & Immigrants.

Self-hating Jew, EVIL gollum Miller is the acting prez doing all sorts of undisciplined plenary & unconstitutional Acts. 🤬

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

That Antifa doesn't actually exist is what makes it the perfect pretense for siccing the DOJ on just about anybody.

Guess who just got both the updated COVID vaccine and flu shots today? Your dear Leader Trump. Maybe you should get them too.

Trump doesn’t like data. He wants investors, consumers, and everyone else to be in the dark, so he can lie without fear of factual contradiction. He can create even more of a fantasy world. He can pretend that he’s been wildly successful even when he’s been a terrible failure.

I was in a Kansas bookstore yesterday, and two women in front of me were discussing the Kansas Eisenhower Museum Director who refused to give Trump a sword from the museum and was fired.

They were appalled, and it became a conversation between several others in line. The news is getting out…
