Retired attorney; Yanks/Giants fan. Never forget the hypocrisy of the flag-hugging draft dodger, and the murderous insurrection he incited and his party enabled. All in on the fight against fascism, and the nauseating hypocrisy of sanctimonious Republicans

Dog killer also has zero regard for human life??
Shocker.
How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.

Just as when JD Vance previously characterized Trump as another Hitler, Marco Rubio's warnings about Orban vanished when he sold he soul to the orange authoritarian.
Marco Rubio just flew to Budapest to deliver a speech in which he provided a full endorsement of Viktor Orbán in the upcoming Hungarian elections.
Here is the letter he signed in 2019 warning about Hungary's "downward democratic trajectory" under Orbán

Elon Musk turned Twitter into a right wing propaganda mill, Jeff Bezos is turning the Washington Post into a right wing propaganda mill, Larry Ellison is turning CBS (and potentially soon CNN and TikTok) into a right wing propaganda mill.

You'd think there'd be more stories about it.

Trump has wiped out all our top, most experienced generals and admirals. He and Bondi wiped out out best investigators ans prosecutors at the DOJ. Patel cleaned out the FBI. No more Dep. Education. We'll be 100 yrs recovering from this.

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold.

We really are not a very good-natured country.

I’ve watched a lot of congressional hearings over the last 40 years. This performance by Bondi is the single most unprofessional, non-responsive, reprehensible and obnoxious I have ever seen from any witness who has testified before any committee of either chamber.

Swalwell: ICE agents shot Alex Pretti and Renee Good. And the only person in the world who has been held accountable by DHS is the pilot who somehow forgot to move Kristi Noem’s blankie.

The Dow was at 43,488 when Trump took office. It just hit 50,000.

So if you had invested $43,488 in the US, you would now have $50,000. But if you had invested the same amount in the rest of the world, you would now be worth $60,000.

Just a reminder that the UC system was not a party in this litigation. Faculty, staff and the @aaup.org fought on their own. UCLA, and the entire UC system, should be ashamed of themselves, and their leaders should be reminded of their submissives every day.

An example of Republican misrepresenting the facts!

Democrats don't refuse to fund DHS...

REPUBLICANS REFUSE TO REIN IN TRUMP'S GESTAPO!

Prohibiting facemasks is not unreasonable.
Having a judicial warrant before entering someone's home is not a novelty.

It's in the BILL OF RIGHTS!!!

At midnight, the government will enter a partial shutdown. Why? Because Democrats are choosing to protect dangerous illegal aliens over Americans.

House Republicans did our job. We passed bipartisan legislation to fund the govt.

Why are Democrats still playing games with our national security?

How the fuck is Corey Lewandowski in any position to fire a Coast Guard pilot?

What is his title?

What is his job?

What is his official position in the US government?

If you are Kristi Noem’s boyfriend you get to fire Coast Guard officers?
