Markwayne Mullin defends "show me your papers": "If you're here legally, there's nothing to hide. Most people already are walking around with a government-issued ID, meaning your Real ID or your driver's license. If you go board a train here, you gotta show your ID."

The flu and pneumonia kill over 45,000 people a year. Moderna developed a new mRNA flu vaccine for people 50 and older--who are most at risk. Prasad, unilaterally, against the recommendation of experts within the agency, denied Moderna's appplication. www.statnews.com/2026/02/11/m...
Prasad overruled FDA staff to reject Moderna's flu vaccine application
The rejection is the latest instance of Vinay Prasad overruling career FDA scientists to place vaccines under harsher scrutiny.

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

These Border Patrol thugs say they are being boxed in by a car driven by a mom. A lie.

Then they veer into her car & say they've been struck. Another lie.

Then the driver opens fire at her.

Trump's CBP & #ICE savages are terrorizing our streets.

Call Congress at 202-224-3121 & demand action.

Following yesterday’s tragic shootings in Tumbler Ridge, B.C., I have asked that Canada’s flag atop the Peace Tower, and across all government buildings, be flown at half-mast for the next seven days as our nation mourns with the community.

I can appreciate as a Canadian that school shootings are so rare that the prime minister suspends his entire schedule over this tragedy.

I'm so enthralled with the whole Trump-Carney-Windsor-Detroit Gordie Howe bridge scandal. A billionaire who owns the only other bridge gets pissy and suddenly the fucking President is ranting on Truth Social about how Canada is evil. It's so funny. And so, so dumb. And corrupt. Can't forget corrupt.

Tumber Ridge is not just idyllic but resilient.

It has seen mines open and close and reopen. It has embraced wind energy, made unprecedented dinosaur discoveries, hosts epic adventures and reinvented itself through tourism.

Thinking of everyone there as the town faces the unimaginable days ahead.

At “Ageing on the Hill,” I met the community groups helping seniors age at home with dignity. Nearly 10,000 nonprofits deliver meals, rides & visit, but they are stretched thin. I’m pushing for stable funding, elder-abuse protections & real caregiver support. Seniors deserve action, not words.

I’ve cared for young women dying of cervical cancer. It’s devastating and largely preventable now with the HPV vaccine.

When a vaccine prevents cancer, the question isn’t whether to re-examine it, it’s why would we hesitate?

Now we learn the billionaire owner of a bridge that will compete w/the new Canada-MI bridge met with Lutnick right before Trump issued his threat to shut down the new bridge. The Trump admin is a lawless mafia gangster extortion racket existing to enrich oligarchs at our expense.

there are two things about this, one is that there is no prime minister of switzerland, he's talking about the president of the swiss confederation, which is a different thing entirely, and, two, i'm not sure you could make a more persuasive case to SCOTUS for nuking tariffs than this one
atrupar.com Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d
Trump: "So I put on a 30% tariff, which is very low. I got an emergency call from I believe the prime minister of Switzerland. She was very aggressive ... I didn't really like the way she talked to us, so instead of giving her a reduction, I raised it to 39%."

The details of this case are enraging evidence of the vicious, virulent misogyny that runs through everything Trump and his demonic cultists do and say.
Police in the town investigated the 23-year-old's death as possible manslaughter but no criminal case was brought against Kris Harrison after a grand jury in Collin County declined to indict him. An inquest into Lucy Harrison's death opened earlier at Cheshire Coroner's Court, where her boyfriend Sam Littler described the "big argument" about Trump, who was preparing to be inaugurated for his second term of office. Littler, who travelled to the US with Lucy Harrison for the holiday, said she would often become upset with her father when he spoke about owning a gun. The inquest also heard how Kris Harrison, who moved to the United States when his daughter was a child, had previously been to rehab for alcohol addiction. Kris Harrison, who did not attend the inquest, admitted in a statement sent to the court that he had relapsed on the day of the shooting and had drunk about 500ml of white wine. Littler said on the morning of 10 January his partner had asked her father during the Trump row: "How would you feel if I was the girl in that situation and I'd been sexually assaulted?" Kris Harrison had replied that he had two other daughters who lived with him so it would not upset him that much. Littler said Lucy became "quite upset" and ran upstairs. He told the court that later that day, about half an hour before they were due to leave to go to the airport, Lucy had been in the kitchen when her father took her by the hand and led her into his ground-floor bedroom. Littler said he heard a loud bang about 15 seconds later and then Kris Harrison screamed for his wife, Heather. Littler said: "I remember running into the room and Lucy was lying on the floor near the entrance to the bathroom and Kris was just screaming, just sort of nonsense." The statement from Kris Harrison said he and his daughter had been watching a news item on gun crime when he told her he had a gun and asked her if she wanted to see it. They went into the bedroom so he could show her a Glock 9mm semi-automatic handgun which he kept in the bedside cabinet. Harrison said he had bought the gun a couple of years before because he wanted a "sense of security" for his family. He denied ever discussing it with his daughter before. He said: "As I lifted the gun to show her I suddenly heard a loud bang. I did not understand what had happened. Lucy immediately fell." Harrison said he could not recall whether his finger was on the trigger. He acknowledged he had issues with alcohol in the past and said he "briefly lapsed" on the day of his daughter's death because he was emotional about her leaving.
