3 toddlers. And their wounded warrior father. All killed. And their pregnant mother wounded.

This is what Putin is doing.

And this is why all Americans must stand with Ukraine and against Russia.

Three toddlers and their father were killed in a Russian drone strike in eastern Ukraine that also injured their pregnant mother and their grandmother, local emergency services said. https://cnn.it/4acvRbf

Lieu plays Bondi the infamous clip of Trump & Epstein partying together & asks her if there were underaged girls at any party the two attended

"This is so ridiculous," Bondi says. "There's no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime"

"I believe you just lied under oath," Lieu replies

Something people seem to miss here is that being asked for ID on a train, which doesn't happen, doesn't come with the threat of being thrown into a concentration camp if one fails to show the proper ID.
Markwayne Mullin defends "show me your papers": "If you're here legally, there's nothing to hide. Most people already are walking around with a government-issued ID, meaning your Real ID or your driver's license. If you go board a train here, you gotta show your ID."

This is the FBI’s list of “Prominent Names” it was tracking in the Epstein Case. This list appears in this slide show, FBI email correspondence, and FBI tip sheets — all of which I saw unredacted today. Believe the survivors.

You can see this file on DOJ’s website

Donald Trump and the Republicans are threatening to destroy representative democracy while killing civilians, taking massive bribes, destroying alliances, and exploding costs. That's why it's so critical that the Democrats find candidates who are inspiring enough to get me to vote.

GOLDMAN: Do you know what other regimes in the 20th century required similar proof of citizenship?

LYONS: Various nefarious regimes did that

GOLDMAN: Is Nazi Germany one?

LYONS: This is the wrong type of question

GOLDMAN: What guidance have you given your agents about asking people to show proof of citizenship?

LYONS: We don't do that

G: Really? So all of those individual citizens who have been randomly asked are lying?

LYONS: If ICE is conducting an investigation, they'll ask someone their nationality

I believe Lyons is going to resign. He looks pained by the criminal activity that he has allowed by ICE under his leadership.

I just watched Lindsey Vonn go down.

She is a remarkable person. And remarkable people sometimes cannot see their limits. This makes her special, admirable, and inimitable. You can't imitate such bravery and stubbornness. I don't suggest you try. I would root for you too if you did.

The best will be Trump losing the midterms.
