There’s a lot of consensus about this among Americans. Congress is asleep at the wheel

A new poll finds 68% of Americans support stricter gun safety laws—an all-time high. Momentum grows for universal background checks.

The ‘Peace President’ killed six more people off the coast of Venezuela this morning. We have no evidence other than his word that they were a threat to anyone, anywhere and also release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention in this matter!

Duffy wants to know who is funding Antifa for the No Kings March. He can’t wrap his brain around the idea of people doing something and not being paid for it unless it’s people who don’t count. Millions of people bringing their homemade signs marching peacefully together is a concept beyond him

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids

Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

ICE exists to serve the prison industrial complex. They needed to create a fake crisis to justify even more mass incarceration. The US is a prison state.

I'm still gobsmacked by Cheeto saying an attack on Qatar is just like an attack on USA. Say what, now?

Doesn't seem like he can unilaterally promise that without Congressional consent?
