I live in KY and can tell you 1000% a huge chunk of drivers these days driving cross country do not speak English.

Somehow, they manage-don't ask me how. Managing a Pilot for several years, you see a lot.

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.

Mike Johnson: "We've always stood with Capitol police and law enforcement. We've shown that in word and deed."

Mockler: We saw this Nazi group chat which I’m sure you condemn right?

Kolvet: We can talk about it

Mockler: Do you condemn it?

Kolvet: I want to talk about it

Mockler: So, you’re like JD Vance? You won’t condemn this?

Americans, you deserve so much better than this.

Let’s make sure Saturday is just the beginning.

We will overwhelm this regime with dignity and a fierce, non-violent “NO!”

Domestic violence isn't now, nor has it ever been an important topic to these people.
Ever.

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

That's one of the big differences between us and them, I guess.

I don't want them to go without for someone else to have basic human rights and necessities; i want us all to have basic human rights and necessities 🤷‍♀️

Holy shit. This is Angelo Elia, a legislative correspondent for Congressman Dave Taylor.

According to @rooster.info, during a Zoom meeting today, he had an American nazi flag displayed in the background.

Louisiana: Plaintiffs said 'we want another majority-black district.'

Jackson: No. They said 'we aren't receiving equal electoral opportunity because our votes are being diluted.'

Louisiana: Same thing.
