So they’re “investigating” Bad Bunny for bringing joy to 135 million people?
Your tax money well spent. 🤷🏻‍♀️
Rep Mark Alford (R-MO) says House Rs are "investigating" Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show & talking with FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr. Alford says he didn't watch the whole thing & also doesn't know Spanish but suspects it might have been "much worse than the Janet Jackson wardrobe malfunction"

A @SuperBowl Sunday Fact…

In a North-South oriented football Stadium, the rotating Earth forces a kicked field goal to deflect to the right. Depending on the hang-time and distance, it can be as much as 1/3 of an inch.

There are a growing number of reports of agents impersonating construction workers, delivery drivers & anti-ICE activists, heightening fears in the state.

That's deceptive & unconstitutional, because they use trickery to get around warrant & consent protections.

As corporations shell out big bucks for Super Bowl commercials, remember that many have said they were forced to raise prices due to inflation.

Also remember that profit margins in nearly every sector in the S&P 500 are running near or above 10-year highs.

Hello???

"It's not on your resume, but weren't you on the Washington Post editorial board in 2024 and 2025?"

"You can't prove that!"
WaPo editorial board when TX imposes a legislative gerrymander: don't freak out guys! Not a threat to democracy!

When VA responds to TX with *referendum* on their own gerrymander: brass-knuckled hypocrisy, anti-democratic gamesmanship.

There is hypocrisy here, all right, but not from VA.

The President says elections should be nationalized. Isn't that what is done in Russia? GOP preaches "states rights" until things are done they don't like, then the Feds take it over. World's biggest hypocrites.

The US deficit is approaching ww2 levels as a percent of GDP.

Because of the “Big Beautiful Bill” that GOP voted for.

We are spending more on INTEREST than on anything else including the military.

This is a time bomb, and the GOP is responsible. Fiscal conservative my ass

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is:

In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could “restore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.

For the first time in modern Texas history, Dems have candidates running in every state and federal race on the 2026 ballot.

That includes all congressional seats, every state House and state Senate race, plus statewide judicial and State Board of Education.

A functioning Congress will have articles of impeachment drafted by the end of the day.

Our Congress will just go to social media to basically say “We don’t like this, but what are you gonna do?”

RealPage allegedly helped landlords price-fix and jack up the cost of rent.

Instead of cracking down, Trump's Justice Department struck a “deal” that lets them continue to rip off renters.

Is that the art of the deal or a sham? RealPage called it "an endorsement."
