Had Joe Biden tweeted "Pete Buttigieg killed it on MSNBC this morning" and Buttigieg wasn't even on, Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson would've written a book about it. Normal stuff from Trump though.

Pete Hegseth was not on Fox News this morning. They did play a clip of a video Hegseth posted on social media. Perhaps a confused Trump thought it was live.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth was great on FoxNews this morning. Talking about modern weapons and warfare. Thank you also to Brett Velicovich, who really knows his “stuff.” We are really on our way. MAGA!

Don Bongino desperately misses the attention that comes with being an online shitposter and is bored to death having a real job. If he resigns, that's why.

RACIAL PROFILING 101A.

Homan: "People need to understand ICE officers and Border Patrol don't need probable cause to walk up to somebody, briefly detain them, and question them ... based on their physical appearance."

"Metadata embedded in the Epstein video and analyzed by WIRED and independent video forensics experts shows that rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using the professional editing tool Adobe Premiere Pro."

Metadata Shows the FBI’s ‘Raw’ Jeffrey Epstein Prison Video Was Likely Modified

There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein's death.

WTF?!? Border Czar Tom Homan claimed that ICE and Border Patrol agents don’t need probable cause to detain people they suspect are undocumented, saying they can do so based on factors like physical appearance. This is straight-up racial profiling, not law enforcement.

We shouldn't need a Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, but here we are. Still underpaid. Still undervalued.

66 cents on the dollar means we lose thousands every year, for doing the same job.

Over a lifetime? That’s hundreds of thousands gone.

Pay Black women. Period.

Axios just reported that Bongino took a DAY OFF from work today over his frustration with the Epstein files debacle.

It’s worth revisiting this clip where Bongino complained about how hard work was.

REPORTER: What do you do next time to make sure people are alerted if they're dead asleep? Maybe a siren system?

TRUMP: Yeah. You'll probably have to do that. You'll probably come up with something very unique, because there's no system right now. A thing like this has never happened.

Well, it's starting.

The first group of immigrants has arrived at a new “camp” deep in the Florida Everglades, where officials are openly describing it as “concentrating” certain people in one area. Have you seen the photos of the flooding? This entire site is a human rights violation.

Tens of thousands of Honduran and Nicaraguan individuals have depended on protected status to live in our nation, contribute to society, and avoid danger in their countries.

This is another cruel attack on our immigrant communities, and I will fight back.

Trump to terminate deportation protection for thousands of Hondurans and Nicaraguans in U.S.

The Trump administration will terminate deportation protections for thousands of Hondurans and Nicaraguans in the U.S., according to Federal Register notices posted on Monday, part of a broad effort by the president to strip legal status from migrants.
