People laughing at this don't seem to realize how perilous this is. Now he can call anyone a member of Antifa. This will be his justification for disappearing more people off the streets and sending them to God knows where.

Be very careful when joking about this!

Before his arrest for murder he had pleaded guilty at age 19 to intent to distribute LSD. Although that conviction carried its own immigration consequences Subu, who was born in India but arrived in the United States when he was 9 months old, was never deported because he was serving a life sentence

For members facing rebuke on Saturday, transgressions included voting for Burrows as speaker and advancing this year’s House rules package, which banned Democrats from serving as committee chairs but left them with other means of influence.

The State Republican Executive Committee, the party’s governing board, met in the state Capitol on Saturday to consider whether to reprimand 10 Republican House members for being insufficiently conservative. In the end, the board rejected half of the censures...

Texas Politics are a fucking mess

The Texas GOP has voted to censure five of its own in the Texas House yet stopped short of banning them from the 2026 primary ballot, rejecting an untested provision that some House members say would have violated their constitutional right to appear on the ballot

Texas GOP censures five lawmakers, but rejects banning anyone from the primary ballot

Saturday’s decisions signal a deescalating intraparty tension that heightened at the start of the year.

What's really creepy is my son got money when he hadn't even told me his tooth came out..

It's pretty creepy when you think about it

A tweet by Dana Schwartz on a graphic background, humorously describing the concept of the Tooth Fairy as the most occult-like tradition, where kids exchange their teeth placed under pillows for money.

Here's what I think: Some evidence went missing when first seized. Evidence went missing after it was logged and possibly after it was bates stamped. Defense Counsel likely already received discovery. We will never see the full file, as they will not be able to account for the discrepancies.

Klobuchar: "I remember Bondi saying, 'the president is the most transparent president in history.' I wish I said, Well then why doesn't he just release the Epstein files?"

@repstansbury.bsky.social: "This is gangster activity. The president is trying to shield pedophiles by calling and threatening members of Congress. We need more members of Congress, whether it's the Epstein files, the shutdown, health care, democracy, the rule of law, to just fucking do their jobs."

(I hate to say it, but I have never been a fan of Jimmy's voice. He seems like a great guy, but have never vibed with his performances)

And Trump never cared about sanctions. Pocket change when he can fund-raise off the low information masses.

But... Sanctions for criminal cases are different.

Would not surprise me at all. They found out early that an accusation and announced investigation is political gold.

Aww.... I never got the opportunity to see them. They never came within driving distance of me. I did later kick myself when I skipped Donny and Marie's show when I was in Vegas for a conference.

Yeah, that would be worth the blood pressure spike~!
