Remember, they're currently arguing that Biden's pardons are illegitimate because he signed the actual forms with an autopen.

Trump, meanwhile, repeatedly insists he knows nothing at all about one of his very controversial pardons. Never heard of the guy!

Sorta seems like a problem.

Sweet. Easy congressional inquiry in 2027.

Who is drafting the pardon paperwork? Who is briefing him before he signs them? What ethics checks are being done before these pardons are being drafted?

Is he actually even signing? Are these all auto pen?

Weird.

It's almost like her current boyfriend, the director of the FBI who flies her around the nation on government jets, might have shared information that would normally be limited to trusted law enforcement circles.

But that can't be right, because that would probably be a *crime*

Kash Patel’s girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, warns that additional sleeper cells are preparing to launch attacks across the United States.

How many 26-year-old, aspiring country singers do you know of who are featured media guests on sleeper cell attacks?

If ICE agents begins harassing voters on the way to vote on Tuesday, we need local prosecutors to charge the ICE officers with state law crimes. We need to send a message for 2026 that they will be swiftly arrested.
