I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

Major media act like what happened on that boat in the Caribbean is a mystery because Democrats say the 2 surviving crewmen were desperately trying to survive and Sen. Tom Cotton says they were "staying in the fight." But it should be no mystery to seasoned journalists that Cotton is damn liar.

Republicans keep talking about how bad our health care system is and how they have "lots of ideas" to fix it. This has been going on for more than a decade. There are 3 possibilities:
1. They're incompetent.
2. They're lying about wanting to fix health care.
3. Both.

“Defund the Police” was a ruinous and nebulous street slogan Democrats got smeared with a little while ago.
But I do think “Abolish ICE” would have majority support & get a lot of traction at this point.
ICE is disgusting & un-American.

Yeah, a House member needs to send up that impeachment flag. This is illegal, immoral, dangerous behavior — that is also likely unconstitutional as well.

LETITIA JAMES ESCAPES POLITICAL PERSECUTION ONCE AGAIN! A federal grand jury made the RARE decision of rejecting an indictment. When you staff the DOJ with clout whore skank walkers (a gender neutral description), you end up spreading your cheeks and getting railed in court.

Last year, Republicans said Joe Biden was sleepy and inept, totally disengaged as president.
Now, 11 months after Biden left office, Republicans depict him as a hugely influential figure, casting such a shadow over current events that he's to blame for every bad thing that happens.
