Sen. PADILLA: This Justice Department fired a 15-year career prosecutor who put away sex traffickers and transnational terrorists. She was marched out of her office. Why? Because she had the audacity to remind Border Patrol that it should follow court orders.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted “no one has died” as a result of U.S. foreign aid cuts. In Myanmar, the grieving father of a 2-year-old boy who died after their food rations were cut calls such claims a lie.

Starving children screaming for food as US aid cuts unleash devastation and death across Myanmar

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has repeatedly said “no one has died" because of his government’s decision to gut its foreign aid program.

Good morning and happy Wednesday to everyone. If you are worried that Pam Bondi acts like there will never be another peaceful transfer of power, we should be friends.

Who'd have thought it?

MTG has more moral courage & cares more about her constituents than Elise Stefanik.

Over 40,000 in NY21 will lose their Medicaid.

She cares more about running for Govenor than she does for sick men, women, AND children.

She is the worst.

CBS reports ICE agents have repeatedly made fake 911 calls. Each time, police found no threat. In Illinois, that’s a felony.

A summary of the current GOP plan on the shutdown:

1.) We are actually the stewards of healthcare (ignore your premiums, plez)

2.) If the democraps don't open government, we'll ruin our own voters lives.

3.) *vague heavy breathing sounds from Stephen Miller's office*

Texas Paul @realtexaspaul.com · 3h

I don't understand why I see things so differently. I see a health insurance industry that thinks it's entitled to charge people 1/3rd of their income for healthcare. That industry shouldn't be "fixed." It should be burned to the ground and its ashes pissed on.

ICE agent called woman “bitch” before he shot her seven times. She was not brandishing a weapon as they claimed. Why won’t they release his name? Don’t let them provoke you. Record everything you can safely.

It's been two weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected and Mike Johnson has still refused to seat her, unlike in past cases where he swore in new members within 24 hours.

There cannot be one set of rules for Rs and another for Ds.

Also, release the damn Epstein files already.
