Rep. Andy Biggs: "I would suspect that probably in about four months you'll see something really dramatic happen and the prices will come down ... things are going better than most people would realize, but Americans feel things."

Why Russell Vought Is Worse Than Watergate

Conservatives used to think you could be a political hatchet artist or you could serve the Lord. Now they say: Why choose?

No American president has ever named ships or institutions after himself—until now. Trump’s gold-plated presidency isn’t about strength. It’s about fear, ego, and unmistakable ignorance.

Civic excellence starts locally.

🏆 Sheridan High School is Wyoming’s We the People State Winner
⭐ Cheyenne Central is Wyoming’s Wild Card Team

These students mastered the Constitution. Next stop: the We the People National Finals this April.

Democracy is in action & the competition is on.

Trump isn't beating the antichrist allegations with posts like this. My goodness.
Raphael Warnock was on Meet the Fake Press with a one sided and very biased Kristen Welker as the Host(ess!). Warnock spent the entire show using Religion to try and divide the Country! If a Republican, in particular ME, made those statements, it would be FRONT PAGE NEWS. He ended by saying that he was going to his Church to preach now, and while I think that’s fine, I do say, “What ever happened to separation of Church and State?” That would be the first thing they would use against us but, actually, it’s something that never much bothered me. Anyway, Warnock is a LIGHTWEIGHT whose wife correctly states that he tried to run her over with a car. Fortunately, she was able to get out of the way, and only almost lost her foot. Warnock is a bad guy, and NBC News, which is second only to ABC Fake News for being the worst, should be ashamed of themselves in allowing garbage “interviews” with untalented and uncaring people to take place. The Public airwaves, which these Networks are using at no charge, should not be allowed to get away with this any longer! They should be properly licensed, and pay significant amounts of money for using this very valuable Public space. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAGA!

Warren: "The president says here's what he thinks should happen to CNN. If that doesn't make your hair stand up, I don't know what does. That's him saying, 'You've got to make a deal w/me. That might involve a $1m a dinner & buying crypto & getting rid of a pesky news outfit I don't like'"

If you’re wondering how the push for “patriotic education” could shape civics classrooms, this conversation is for you.

Our Aruna Patel will break down what’s happening in civics education across the U.S. and revisit the historical role of civics learning.

Ossoff: "This is so much deeper than the politics. What does it say about the moral condition of this Congress that the thing that has them all tied up in knots is a very simple question: Should people's health insurance premiums go up double or triple? This is a policy choice."

My periodic reminder that Sarah Palin (quite correctly) called for Rahm Emmanuel to be fired when he used the "R" word.

And my periodic reminder that maybe a political reporter wants to ask her what should happen when Trump uses it.

Like any reporter.
