I am begging one, JUST ONE, congressional reporter to follow up with Mike Johnson by asking, "What are the American people to make of a Speaker of the House who tells us daily that he's not aware of what's happening on Capitol Hill and the White House?"

This nation would be a better place if just one White House reporter had the courage to ask "what the hell are you rambling about, old man?"

Such a coward!
RAJU: If defenseless survivors were killed, would that constitute a violation of the laws of war?

MIKE JOHNSON: I'm not going to prejudge any of that. I was pretty busy yesterday. I didn't follow a lot of the news.

Every time he brags about that cognitive test, I’m reminded it’s the one where you have to identify a picture of a lion. The fact that he thinks it’s an achievement might actually be the test.

Jacob Frey: "We are here to respond to credible reports relaying that there are as many as 100 federal agents that will be deployed to the Twin Cities with a specific focus on targeting our Somali community. To our Somali community -- we love you and we stand with you. That commitment is rock solid"

Psychologists and even GOP national security experts have said it before, and Trump's advancing cognitive decline proves: he is not fit for office and must be removed.

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.

You couldn't write comedy better than this. It's better than VEEP.

Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

You have the right to record ICE.

You have the right to film any operation happening in public as long as you do not interfere or impede it.

Your camera is proof, but keep a safe distance. KEEP RECORDING.

It's great that reporting on the double tap has spotlighted the abject criminality of this Administration.

But don't forget: Venezuela is not waging war on America or Americans, and the men killed were not combatants.

The first strike was every bit as illegal as the second.

After a "double-tap" strike was ordered to kill survivors of an initial attack on a so-called "drug boat," the White House has tried to gaslight the American people by fabricating their own reality. This spin is the latest in a pattern of denial and distortion at the highest levels of government.

We’re all trapped in Trump’s fabricated world and need to pull ourselves up out of it.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

The whole gushing over their dear leader is beyond nauseating.

They might as well just get on their knees and do what is obvious in front of the cameras. 🙄

Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.
