Not health insurance, not SNAP benefits, not illegal abduction of immigrants. The fucking ballroom!

I believe that. Because it's his pet project, and he could give two shits about anything else beyond what he wants.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The sad and pathetic truth is that if he did do this Republican cowards in Congress would still say nothing.

The day after the Chinatown raid, New York AG Tish James launches an online portal for the public to submit photos and videos of ICE activity.

"We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law," she writes.

Attorney General James Launches Portal to Collect Photos and Videos of ICE Activity in New York

NEW YORK – New York Attorney General Letitia James is encouraging New Yorkers to submit videos or other documentation of federal immigration enforcement actions in New York following yesterday’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid on Canal Street in New York City.

“Every New Yorker has the right to live without fear or intimidation,” said Attorney General James. “If you witnessed and documented ICE activity yesterday, I urge you to share that footage with my office. We are committed to reviewing these reports and assessing any violations of law. No one should be subject to unlawful questioning, detention, or intimidation.”

Attorney General James is asking New Yorkers to share photos or videos of federal government actions using the Office of the Attorney General’s new online portal.

I’d like to report that the White House looks like a war zone. Rubble everywhere. Time to send in the National Guard to restore order

Is this the Twilight Zone?

Manufactured outrage about the “other” has replaced outrage aimed towards someone who is attempting to annihilate a country’s highest ideals. Is one’s life meaningful, if not lived by the highest ideals?

He did everything he possibly could to overturn the election & stay in power - threatening his VP, Govs & Secs of States, organizing a mob to storm the Capitol. He knew if he ordered a military coup they would’ve refused & he would’ve been tried for treason. That’s why he left.

ICE has increased its spending on weapons by 700% since Trump took office.

You read that right — SEVEN HUNDRED PERCENT.

Trump is building his own personal military to terrorize American cities, trample on civil rights, and intimidate his opponents.

it's dizzying to me that stories like this -- a corrupt grift built on democracy-wrecking lies that culminated in a coup attempt -- barely breakthrough anymore. they're just daily background noise now.

COLLINS: The NYT is reporting your legal team is seeking $230 million from your own DOJ now in response to the investigations into you. Is that something you want?

TRUMP: It could be, yeah. I don't even talk to them about it. All I know is they would owe me a lot of money. They rigged the election.

To be clear: deportations to increase cultural homogeneity is the text book definition of ethnic cleansing. Demands that come even close to this are so far outside any democratic norm and the rule of law. What has happened to a country when this is not condemned in the strongest possible terms?

Trump: "As you know, they found $31 billion. They came to see me, 'Sir, we found $31b.' They said, 'We don't know why.' I said, 'Was this a good find or a bad find?' It was a good find. It was a plus 31. We're used to finding negative 31s for the last 30 years. I said, 'Check the tariff shelf'"

When he first got into the WH, I would say, as an image of his disregard for anything: he will take a dump on the top of the resolute desk and argue there’s nothing written against it. This is far beyond.
