Let's not forget... TFG pardoned the likes of Flynn, Stone, Manafort, Kushner, Bannon, Papadopoulos, Pirro, Arpaio, Blagojevich, and more! So, when #POTUS decided to pardon Hunter, I say, "Good for you, Joe!"

I wonder if RFK Jr. will win the 'Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine' in 2026.

He did make the significant discovery that Tylenol and circumcision cause Autism this year.

You can't help but ask, "What are they hiding?"

BREAKING: Sens. DURBIN, DUCKWORTH were just denied entrance to the Broadview ICE Facility in Illinois, unable to conduct constitutional role of oversight.

Not for a minute did I think you were exaggerating! Sadly, it is all too familiar.

Lest you think I'm exaggerating, this is just a sample.

Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

This is so blatantly full of bullshit that I almost spit out my coffee. His cardiovascular vitality is that of a person 14 years younger than his actual age? Please, he's a walking heart attack/stroke just waiting to happen.

I've been sounding the alarm about Fetterman for a long time. Prof. Ealy takes all the information and serves it up not only with prime snark, but makes it make sense.

Pennsylvania Deserves Better — And It’s Not Too Late to Demand I

How John Fetterman went from working-class hero to absentee senator—and why Pennsylvania shouldn’t settle for excuses.

Perhaps the Pope should also speak with the cardinals - uh, especially Cardinal Timothy Dolan?

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

Apparently she did, in part. From the @the-independent.com: "Venezuelan opposition leader and the newly awarded Nobel Peace Prize winner has dedicated her win to Donald Trump for his “decisive support” in her country’s fight for democracy."

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”
