🚨MAJOR BREAKING: MAGA is stunned into silence as news confirms National Guard shooter, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, entered the U.S. in 2021 and was vetted and granted LEGAL ASYLUM by the TRUMP ADMINISTRATION in April 2025.

Their entire narrative just collapsed.

Oh no 😱

Is the media finally treating Trump, who is clearly in rapid decline, the way they treated Biden?

It’s about fucking time! Who’s with me?

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

When the CDC quietly rewrote its vaccine–autism page, it didn’t just edit a website; it handed anti-vaccine rhetoric a government badge.In this clip, I break down how you destroy public trust in science one asterisk at a time—& why that should terrify anyone who cares about keeping outbreaks at bay.

DOGE did what it was intended to do: gather massive amounts of personal data from government sources, cause chaos, and drive out people who would stand up for regularity and accountability

An utter failure that is going to kill a lot of people, It was a complete success it gutted government capacity, hurt people, and gave Musk access to our most precious and secure data. Don’t engage with it on traditionally conservative terms.

In Mangling CDC Vaccine Pages, RFK Jr. Is Laughing In All of Our Faces
It's a schoolyard friend saying "I promise not to tell anyone your secret" and then shouting it from on top of the jungle gym, claiming he didn't tell "anyone," he told "the sky."

Prediction: Some will seize on the shooting to try to pull Dems back to a position of cowardice on Trump's deportations, and Stephen Miller will scam dimwit commentators into making this case as well, but what happened ultimately won't dent public disapproval of the raids/arrests in the slightest.

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?

TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

The reason that we reporters are focused so intensely on the L'affair Nuzzi is that, as Olivia notes, it is a basically apocalyptic scandal in the most literal sense of that term: a dropping of masks. It's acting as confirmation of every hideous story anybody's ever told about political journalists
this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit

Inflation is driving up prices for Thanksgiving staples. Since last year:

– Turkey is up 36%
– Ham is up 49%
– Cranberry sauce is up 22%

Trump’s trade war is shrinking portions and making the holidays less affordable.

I recall the media having a field day accusing Biden of putting our troops in harms way during their withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Let’s see if they offer the same courtesy to Trump for his disaster in DC.

I stood with community leaders at the ICE facility in Burlington today to say: No family should fear separation. No refugee should be stranded. No human being should be denied dignity. The Trump administration has broken our promise of justice and we must repair it.

🚨 COMMUNITY ALERT🚨

At LaGuardia Airport, there are several rumored and one confirmed ICE arrest of domestic travelers.

If you are at risk of detention or not sure, exercise caution while traveling. Make a safety plan in case of detention and consult an immigration attorney.

By his own standards and his insistence on scapegoating and blaming, Trump should either explain why he and his administration granted Asylum to the DC shooter suspect SEVEN MONTHS AGO, fire Noem and Homan and apologize - or Trump should resign
