FWIW, last year DHS briefing officers at the Army Command and Staff College told them that cartels use drones inside Mexico and they INFER that those drones periodically cross the US border but that they don’t have actual substantial data on how many or how often or if/when.

According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

Every single day, Aaron Rupar watches broadcasts of these horrible, stupid people just so we can have clips of them and I think Aaron legit deserves some kind of award for not pouring acid into his eyes by now.

Apparently, Tesla moved from California to Texas so they can dump toxic waste water on their neighbors without fear of any consequences.

Pam Bondi, upon being asked specific, reasonable, and highly important questions today – failed to answer almost any of them. Instead she responded by:

• Glorifying her boss
• Attacking the questioner (a profound tell of guilt/complicity)

America desperately needs a functioning and independent House as a check on Trump’s chaos and mania. It will never have that as long as Mike Johnson is Speaker. Every vote for a House Republican is a vote to give Trump unchecked power for two more years.

Johnson said 6 members of Congress should be criminally indicted for the video since they got in the way of sensitive operations. The Speaker wants Democrats arrested for speaking. That’s where we are at with this Republican Party.

Brooke Rollins on high beef prices: "We are coming out of the Biden years where they declared war on cattle. How crazy -- a cow burping is causing climate change and therefore we must get rid of the cattle. This is gonna take a minute to fix because it's a two year deal."

Can Judiciary Dems please hire an experienced litigator to conduct brief tutorials for members on how to question witnesses effectively. I realize this isn’t a courtroom and Bondi is determined just to yell and scream but we aren’t getting much done here either giving speeches.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

As the hearing went on Democrats on the committee did a much better job in my opinion after a very slow start as Bondi continued to be an obnoxious ass. There is only one way to handle a witness like this and the latter questioners seemed to understand that.
