This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system.

We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Why does NO ONE in the press corps have the ability to ask a question framed in this way???
The Speaker of the House has firm views that Bad Bunny is a terrible pick for singing at the Super Bowl, but hasn't had time to watch the President's speech to our military leadership or form an opinion whether furloughed federal workers should be paid or Illinois' governor should be thrown in jail.

Aside from multiple SCOTUS decisions ruling this unconstitutional, and the fact you can’t declare a new law with an EO…
If you burn a flag, a year in prison.
If you viciously beat a police officer with a flag pole during an insurrection, immediate pardon and appointment to a DOJ position.

This is so factually incorrect it makes me want to bash my head against the mf wall.
The “negotiation” was when they ceded part of a Czechoslovakia to try and satiate Hitler BEFORE WW2 started. Then a year later the Nazis still invaded Poland…
The surrender of Germany and Japan was unconditional.

Aren’t these the same people that bitched and moaned about socialism when Democrats saved the American automobile industry through a temporary bailout and then turned a profit on that investment?
Q: As a conservative, do you think the govt should have ownership stakes in private companies?
LAWLER: Generally speaking, no... I think what the president is seemingly trying to do is get a return on these tens of billions of dollars that are being invested by taxpayers into companies like Intel

That’s weird because when I DO have to cross the street to avoid someone yelling crazy things… it’s almost universally someone you can be 100% sure is a Trump/Vance supporter.

Schumer wants us to believe Senate Dems are powerless while literally providing the votes to ensure the GOP agenda goes forward.
If a shutdown was better for Trump, the House GOP wouldn't have passed this CR and the Senate GOP wouldn't vote for it.
