The feeling when you realize you are the only member of the Biden family who actually needed a pardon, and you were passed over.

The German Shepherd's attacks caused the Secret Service to change tactics for safety, documents show.

America was last Pretti Good when we had a President who actually honored his oath of office to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Target in Minneapolis has pulled Hispanic employees off of pick-up order duty after ICE arrested two US citizen Hispanic employees while on the job.

“I’m literally a U.S. citizen!” one shouted as they escorted him into a van.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

The total NSF budget was 9 billion. I doubt they spend 89% of it on quail.

Rand Paul up to his usual dipshittery.

"The NSF spent $8 billion to study whether Japanese qual are more sexually promiscuous while on cocaine"

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell just hired an extremely aggressive law firm in his criminal fight against Donald Trump.

The firm is known for going “scorched earth” and fighting until the very end without settling.

She was protesting.

He told her to leave.

She was complying.

SHE TURNED THE WHEEL TO LEAVE.

Another agent tried to forcibly open her door.

She gave the car gas to leave.

He shot her in the face.

These are the facts of what happened.
