If you watch anything from the Pam Bondi hearing, let it be this questioning from Dick Durbin today.

Chuck Schumer has forced the Senate to read the entire 940+ page Big Beautiful Bill out loud before voting on it.

This is the level of petty and invigorating filibustering I want from all Democrats.

For those who are still catching up on the tariff news from today, let a penguin sum it up for you.

Trump: Bow down to me!

China: lol cry more loser

Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA):

"I'm writing to the White House to demand who knew in advance that the President was going to, once again, flip flop on tariffs. And are people cashing in? There is just all too much opportunity for people in the White House and the administration to be insider trading"

Trump: If China does not take its tariffs off us, I will impose a 104% tariff in response tonight. China has to make a deal. They love deals. They love me. China loves Trump. Make a DEAL. I love deals, and I love China.

Me: Sir, I am a penguin

Probably needed a hug, but crashed the global stock markets and taxed a bunch of penguins instead.

Our human was on the front lines of the protest in Denver yesterday. He did us proud, as did all humans. #handsoff

Remember folks, not only has he tariffed penguins, but his Defense Secretary spilled the krill on top-secret military operations.

Even the penguins are aware of it.

Frankly, it is in the Council’s opinion that this is outrageous. We will be in contact with our Antarctic birds shortly.

Per The Council of Penguins directive, we are denouncing the 10% tariff put upon our fellow birds in the Heard and McDonald Islands. We protest this action severely, and rest assured Donald Trump will not hear the last of this.
