This is an actual photo taken at the #Ohio Statehouse.

This is Ohio's Attorney General (the guy on his knees) with one of the state's top lobbying groups, "Center For Christian Virtue"

A visual reminder of their power over our state laws

After Mike Lawler calls it "political malpractice" and "bullshit" to not vote on ACA subsidies, Mike Johnson told reporters: "Mike Lawler is a very dear friend..Ironically, week before last, I was in NY in his district on Long Island and we were campaigning together."

It wasn't long ago that women were forced to have a male co-signer to get a credit card or a home loan.

Now, the Trump administration wants to end protections against such discrimination.

A JetBlue pilot changed elevation to avoid colliding with a U.S. Air Force plane in the southern Caribbean on Friday, he told air traffic controllers.

The New York-bound flight was leaving the island of Curaçao, just north of the Venezuelan coast.

The airline pilot told Curaçao air traffic control that “we almost had a mid-air collision” with an unidentified military aircraft.

Our competitors/colleagues at the @miamiherald.com posted an explosive investigation a few days ago showing the DeSantis administration misappropriated more than $35 million in state funds. Now, the Legislature must do its job, because DeSantis won't police himself.

UPDATE: The ICE Air flight (OAE3832) is scheduled to depart Baltimore, MD for Cairo, Egypt later today. It’s possible that people (possibly including Russians) on this flight may be transferred to other countries from Cairo.

@marcorubio.bsky.social is only the puppet secretary of state. I wonder if he will figure it out in time?
What is Jared Kushner's job in the administration?
I’d rather question why is Kushner there and why is he laying out a vision? We did not vote him into any gov position nor the senate we voted for has approved his candidacy.

This isn’t a grey zone anymore, it’s 50 shades of grey.

excellent point.
A question for discussion — especially for vets:
If you were ordered to stop a ship in the Caribbean believed to be carrying drugs, board it, and execute its crew — purely as a hypothetical raised by recent DoD interdiction videos — would you follow that order?

What would guide your decision?

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

@secduffy.bsky.social Jesus, what a tool this guy is. DRESS BETTER? The former news host says this on national television? I guess this is what counts as "leadership" in Trumpworld.
In Mussolini's Italy, the fascist movement was obsessed with people wearing suitable attire in all social settings. Thomas Mann describes this brilliantly in one of his novellas. The fact that transportation secretary Duffy obsesses over how one should dress to fly in an airplane, while being
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

She doesn’t even try to hide that she’s a spokesperson for Putin serving in the US Congress. Post after post, day after day, echoing Russian propaganda. Truly sad that people in Pinellas County have chosen this as their representation.

Trump’s special envoy Witkoff put his hand over his heart when Putin walked in the room. Like he’s reunited with a loved one. That really tells you all you need to know.

The bill last numbered H.R. 9495 would empower the Treasury Secretary to designate any nonprofit the Secretary wishes to kill a “terrorist supporting organization” and revoke the tax-exempt status on which it depends for survival. Unconstitutional but lethal in the harm it would do while in force.

So we know that Trump intervened to make Ghislaine Maxwell's life easier.

And that he intervened to make Andrew Tate's life easier.

I wonder how many sex traffickers Donald has gone out of his way to help that we don't know about.
NEW: The White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation.

“It was so offensive to what we’re all here to do, to uphold the law and protect the American people,” one official involved said.
