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!

This is Colton. He started a fire at his house when he chewed through a lithium ion battery. He's not the first dog to do this, and he won't be the last, but unfortunately his dad is a firefighter, so it's probably going down as one of the most embarrassing instances. We're still giving him a 12/10

My daughter was talking to my wife and I about lockdown drills at her school, and at one point she said

"It's like a game of hide and seek, but you can only play once if you die."

This broke my heart. We live in a sick society, and I dont know if their is a cure.

Adelita Grijalva won her election 19 days ago and she still hasn’t been sworn in.

The government has been shut down for 12 days with no end in sight.

They can stall as long as they want but the Epstein files ain’t going away.

This is not a border crossing.
There’s no law that any of us have to show our papers on the interior.

This is a blatant civil rights violation. How is anyone supposed to know whether this man is a real ICE agent or just pretending to be one?!

Network television is the perfect target for Trump. He knows it matters because it made him rich and famous, and also because TV news still carries information to a lot of people who aren’t news junkies.

Nice little TV network you got there

How easily has Trump rolled corporate media? So much more easily than he probably expected.
