The Pedo-Protector Prez ordered a brand new distraction & the Dept. of War (actually the Dept. of Defense: a mini-distraction within a distraction, no extra charge!) is delivering by expanding our ongoing unlawful policy of randomly bombing the tiny boats of fishermen with no due process whatsoever.

“We gotta quit electing knuckleheads. We have a very high knucklehead percentage compared to non-knuckleheads up here,” Rep. Tim Burchett (TN) said about the recent rise in tensions on the floor. “By and large, we just need to start electing better people.”

Ted Cruz attacks laws mandating safety in new cars: automatic emergency braking (AEB) — which isn’t slated to become mandatory until 2029 — and alarms to remind drivers not to forget their kids in the back seat.

I guess maybe we can credit the Colorado Republicans for being self-aware enough to recognize themselves in this public notice?

I’m not sure the Mississippi and other Dixie Republicans would make the connection.

BREAKING: new emails CONFIRM my reporting that there are TRAINING VIDEOS instructing FBI personnel on how to review the Epstein Files. Plus, a lot more…
The emails reveal the special training given to FBI personnel working on what it called the “Epstein Transparency Project.” In some instances they referred to it as the “Special Redaction Project.” The training entailed PowerPoint slide presentations and video instruction on how to review the files.

Why and how can this be hard for anyone to understand.

Putin’s Russia will never relent in his/its attempts to undermine and destroy our Western liberal democracies. tRump is merely his latest patsy, doing Putie’s bidding, enveloped in his fog of stupidity and dementia, enabled by evil sycophants.

What a phenomenal waste of human lives and economic opportunities, just to serve the violent fantasies of stupid, evil, demented and/or insane men.

I’m old enough to remember the old adage from the Vietnam/Nixon antiwar days that if three people met to talk about antiwar activities, one of them would be an undercover FBI informant.

If voters were choosing today, 55% would elect a Dem to Congress, while 41% would vote Republican. Largest lead since Nov 2017, one year before Dems won more than 40 seats during Trump’s first term.

Absolutely right‼️

Californios are Hispanic Californians descended from Spanish and Mexican settlers of the 17th through 19th centuries (since 1683)
who arrived well before California was annexed by the United States.

Alongside the Tejanos of Texas and the Nuevomexicanos of New Mexico & Colorado.
TRUE THIS, they are NATIVE AMERICANS!!!

Suggest change first caption to 1830–__. I’m not at all that iteration of history has ended yet.

Add a panel for US agents capturing/imprisoning/killing Black people at various times in history?

Definitely for 1940s, uniformed “real” Americans hauling Japanese Americans to concentration camps.
History is simply a reboot.

First of all, a 15-year-old is not "barely legal." The age of consent in Florida is 18. So sexual behavior with a 15-year-old is rape.

Megyn Kelly is VILE trash for saying otherwise.

And Megyn Kelly is confessing to having insider information about what Jeffrey Epstein was up to but stayed silent.
