I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy.
She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.
Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.
Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.
It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

In time, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker would come to think of Operation Midway Blitz in an extraordinary way: “An invasion,” he said.
64 days in Chicago: The story of Operation Midway Blitz
President Donald Trump’s federal immigration enforcement operation led to most surreal autumn in Chicago history. What happened during those 64 days will be remembered for a long time.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Michigan’s utility regulator just rubber-stamped DTE Energy’s sweetheart deal to power a mammoth 1.4-gigawatt Saline Township data center — a project so huge it will draw more electricity than many towns — without public scrutiny.

I still can't believe they're trying to make a war happen out of thin air. Not just their abrogation of Congress's role in formally declaring a war -- that's been a slippery slope for decades -- but their total unwillingness even to go through the motions of drumming up public support.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families.

Utah’s signature-gathering industry isn’t “democracy in action.” It’s a gig economy built on workers sleeping in cars, wearing diapers to avoid losing pay, and hustling to meet quotas for million-dollar campaigns. Utah doesn’t have a ballot-initiative problem — it has an exploitation problem.
