There’s more than 1 ‘t*ump in the Epstein files’. I guess the guy in all those photos with him is a look a like ??

WELKER: Has the president crossed the line of impeachment?

CHRIS MURPHY: I have common sense. I know this president has committed 10 times more impeachable offenses in his second term as he did in his first. He's stealing from the American people.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

TAPPER: You called Renee Good a "domestic terrorist." Why did you not wait for an investigation?

NOEM: Everything I've said has been proven to be factual and the truth. This administration wants to operate in transparency.

T: What you said is not what happened

N: It absolutely is what happened

Also, by their own standards, the cops protecting the Capitol on Jan 6 should have opened fire all over.

DHS was created to FIGHT terrorists, not to BE terrorists. It needs to be defunded by congress in 2027, and we should select candidates who run on that platform.

I have to say, as a man with two mothers, I find the derisive deployment of language like "lesbian" and "lover" by those on the far right who are trying to justify Renee Good's death particularly disgusting and dehumanizing. These women. They are wives. They are a family. That's it.

ICE blocked Minnesota officials from investigating their shooting of Renee Good.

Trump and the GOP have blocked and overly redacted the Epstein files.

This is not the behavior of innocent people. This is the behavior of criminals engaged in a cover-up.

Shapiro: J.D. Vance is profoundly and pathetically a weak human being, and he does whatever he thinks his boss wants him to do.

What we need right now is not idiotic gaslighting from the sitting VP

He should be ashamed of himself—and he’s not. I think that speaks to the weakness of his character.

Per reporting by Anna Kramer, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, and Chevron all told Trump in their own ways that they won't be committing to spending billions of dollars in Venezuela soon.

Exxon was most direct — called Venezuela "uninvestable" and described the huge lift needed to change that.

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

Her vehicle's right front panel cleared the ICE agent who didn't open fire until after he was at the side of her vehicle. He used deadly force on a fleeing individual, which is against DHS policy. This is murder. He needs to be arrested.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.

The Constitution is clear:
Congress has the power and responsibility to authorize the use of military force and declare war. Congress has a duty of oversight. Congress must serve as a check, not a rubber stamp to the President.

On these counts, Congress has failed.

Once again, I implore media outlets to stop saying these are CDC decisions.

These are changes being made unilaterally by RFK Jr. against the expert advice of CDC scientists.

I note that RFK Jr. no longer recommends flu vaccine for kids in the midst of a horrible influenza year.
CDC overhauls childhood vaccine schedule to resemble Denmark in unprecedented move
The new U.S. guidelines recommend all children get vaccines for 11 diseases, compared with the 18 previously on the schedule.
