Swalwell: You better believe that accountability is coming. Immunity is going to be stripped. And to Kristi Noem, Tom “Cashbag” Homan, Greg Bovino—your asses are going to be in these witness chairs.

After the House refused to display it, the Senate unanimously agreed to hang a plaque honoring the officers who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6. It only took five years. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
Senate votes to display Jan. 6 plaque after House GOP refuses to hang it at Capitol
The office of House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., has argued that the federal law requiring the plaque's display was "not implementable."

The U.S. is a rogue state which should be sanctioned and condemned by the international community for our flagrant violations of international law and the peace of the world. We won't be, because imperialists tend to stick together.

Just remember what I wrote last May (and which continues to bear out.)

“Trump's numbers are tanking, with a majority of Americans saying he's a ‘dangerous dictator.’ And yet, they're now putting the face of pure evil in the White House on TV more and more.”

The more they put Stephen Miller out front, the more Trump will collapse

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

The “Venezuela distracts from Epstein” line is ridiculous because 1) many awful things happen at once 2) Same Iran-Contra crowd pushing Venezuela invasion are or were involved with Epstein/Maxwell 3) Epstein associates (for ex, Dershowitz) want Iran invasion and see Venezuela as a test run for Iran

Joy Reid stated bluntly on my show that news anchors were not allowed to say Trump fell asleep at meetings or events: We literally had pictures of Trump with his eyes straight up closed. He was definitely asleep,” adding, “but we were told we could not say he was asleep.” youtu.be/0o9SsUzGtjg?...

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

Precisely.
We this, we that.

You know what, fuck that.

The US has never been a united country.

It’s a place built with the sole purpose of enabling white supremacy in the most destructive ways possible.

Black, Brown and Native folks have been screaming this for centuries.

Fuck outta here with ‘we.’

I’m trying to think what would have happened if, during the Mississippi welfare fraud scandal between 2020 and 2023, the Biden administration had halted *all* federal welfare funding to Mississippi.

The right would have lost it; Fox & GOP would have called for an armed revolt.
