I mean there have been A LOT of crazy moments of Trump officials testifying before Congress over the years, but Attorney General Pam Bondi ranting about the stock market during a House Judiciary hearing - amidst questions about Epstein, ICE, and political prosecutions - has gotta make the Top 3.
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

We just shared the link from NBC about three warehouses being bought to house immigrants, but it now looks like we seriously underreported how many are being purchased. Based on information many of you have shared, the number appears to be over 26.

Trump already indicted Rep. LaMonica McIver for protesting at ICE facility. Now he tried to indict 6 more Democrats. We have NEVER seen a President use DOJ like this before. Dems need to make it clear they will be prosecuting Trump AND all GOP co-conspirators. Plus declare His pardons are invalid!
UNFU**ING REAL! Trump regime sought to prosecute and imprison 6 members of Congress for daring to defy them. Again we are at war. And the fact so many Democrats don't know or are too timid to fight back is why Im considering running for Congress in NY's 12th CD! www.nytimes.com/2026/02/10/u...

What's more likely to happen with the SAVE Act? Voter suppression, not voter fraud prevention.

The new voter suppression bill—called the "Save America Act"—would require 21 million American citizens to produce passports or birth certificates to register to vote. Most don't have these documents. This is a poll tax by another name.
