Navarro can't even get dressed in the morning with his own judgment. Why on earth are we going to keep listening to this idiot, the twin idiot brother of DonOLD.
Peter Navarro: "One of the biggest drivers of higher rents in this country is the 20 million illegal aliens that came in during four years of Joe Biden. It's one million illegals, one percent increase in rent. That's a 20 percent national increase."

It’s been 16 years since the Citizens United decision that ushered in the current era of corrupt politics. I’m headed to the Senate floor right now to take stock of the wreckage that case caused.

BREAKING:

We've found 40+ cases of agents using banned chokeholds & other moves that can cut off breathing

People have had seizures. They passed out.

As I've been saying, Trump has been running the federal government like an organized crime enterprise. Shocking as this latest development may be, it is but one example.

Trump must be impeached and removed if our constitutional republic is to survive.

With almost no exceptions, America's leading executives have either toadied up to Trump or kept silent. Will Trump's political witch hunt against Jay Powell hit the markets? That's about the only language CEOs understand.

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

Is there a single day—1 single day—when RFK Jr does NOT do something to dismantle public health?

This one is exceptionally grim—IMHO, the USPSTF is world-leading

As Dr Caroll says, if you ever got a free mammogram, colonoscopy, or HIV test, you can thank the USPSTF

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

The danger of this moment cannot be overstated. Trump/Noem's vile defense of the killing shows that the heavily-armed government agents roaming our cities are unbound/unaccountable even when they kill Americans.

On the pod, @felipedlh.bsky.social and I dig into this:

Trump’s ICE Agents Killed a Citizen. Then Damning New Details Emerged.
As the ICE shooting horror in Minneapolis gets worse, a writer who focuses on ICE accountability explains why the government’s cover story is full of holes—and what recourse we have now.
