Taking back the Senate in 2026 is absolutely vital.

Trump is going to start firing his cabinet secretaries because he needs scapegoats for all his lunacy. After he does that he'll likely nominate some even more blindingly incompetent lunatics to replace them. Who can stop him? Only the Senate.

Excuse me, excuse me. Was it OK for a prior administration to unilaterally order the execution of a U.S. CITIZEN with no trial and no due process?

Where were the Senate defenders of rule-of-law, due process, and limits on executive power back then?

Imagine Stephen Miller getting the clear voice in his earpiece to...
STOP TALKING IMMEDIATELY. NOT ONE MORE WORD!! Or he stopped himself, realizing he just slipped their next step.
This was not a tv glitch. He was still moving & blinking.

I went through conversion therapy years ago when I expressed an undue fondness for strawberry ice cream. Now I only like chocolate & vanilla, so I guess it worked.

P.S. It's really kinda amazing how much the repeated application of a cattle prod to the genitals can influence a person's desires.

I live in California, but not in L.A. Have you Los Angelenos been rioting lately? If so, I didn't get the memo.

Also, the last time I looked Schiff wasn't in charge of the LAFD.

But what about the Lindbergh baby?

Schiff: This is supposed to be an oversight hearing when dozens of prosecutors have been fired simply because they worked on cases investigating the former president.

Bondi: What about the fires in California? Are the riots in LA serious?
