Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change—all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Impeach, arrest, and prosecute them all. Anything less is being complicit.

No wonder Bondi spent the entire hearing screeching and deflecting.

Living in Minnesota right now is wondering if your patient is late because they got caught in traffic, because they got arrested, or because they got detained and all of these are perfectly plausible and equally likely.

In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP.

KIM: There's reporting that FBI agents equipped with a signed warrant prepared to document blood splatter and bullet holes in Ms. Good's SUV. They received orders to stop supposedly from Kash Patel. Do you think a sufficient investigation is happening?

Imagine being charged with murder and defending yourself by saying “but look at all the people I HAVEN’T killed, don’t I get credit for that? Like all the people in this courtroom, for example.”

In just a few moments, I will vote against the so-called SAVE America Act and I am a strong no. That's because this bill would place unnecessary burdens on millions of women and eligible citizens to register to vote and make their voices heard. It is un-American & undermines our democracy.

When the U.S. uses the military against citizens, attacks immigrants, and executes people who pose no threat, it jeopardizes our national security because it incites violence, invites retaliation, normalizes fascism, and sets precedence for others to follow suit.

Genuinely want to know the last time this raggedy plastic bag watched a full football game, with or without “meatloaf and fried chicken.”
The NFL had Bad Bunny on because the NFL has good data on its actual fan base.

Megyn Kelly just shouting “FOOTBALL IS OURS” at Piers Morgan about Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl show is the perfect example of this moment in time. Put it in a time capsule and send it out into space.

Leslie Wexner is one of the 10 co-conspirators named by the FBI during the 2019 arrest of Epstein.
He gave Epstein millions of dollars and the $70 million NYC townhouse.
Leon Black gave Epstein over $170 million.
Both men are alive.
How come they've never been asked to testify?
