Emmer: "Another reform they claim they want is they want ICE agents to identify themselves, to show identification. But they don't want identification for voters in elections. I mean, this stuff is just intellectually inconsistent."

I see the talking points have been issued, and they're going to parrot them no matter how stupid they are
Rep. Steube: "They want ICE agents to have their ID, but they don't want voters who vote in our nation's elections to have ID to show they're actual citizens of our country. The hypocrisy is beyond the pale."

"When Lewandowski was told Noem's personal items had been left behind, including a heated blanket, he yelled at Coast Guard staff

The pilot came out of cockpit to see what was happening & Lewandowski insisted plane return to collect Noem's items

When he refused, Lewandowski announced he was fired"
Noem's use of Coast Guard resources strains her relationship with the military branch, sources say
Some early decisions by the homeland security secretary, including to divert Coast Guard resources from a search and rescue mission to the deportation of immigrants, set the tone early.

Naturally, Trump is going to try to cash in on this. Every t-shirt, coffee cup, everything with the airport’s name on it means Trump will make money off it.

This video hit me especially hard this morning.

This beautiful Husky has been roaming the streets for 3 months, evading capture after his family was disappeared by ICE in Watts, CA.

And what the fuck would these ruthless criminals know about "sensitive nature"?

The left-over MAGAts prove themselves to be increasingly ignorant... such suckers and fools.

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.

They speak about negotiations during the day,
And at night they show their real intentions in the sky.

Peace is not prepared with hundreds of drones.

If you really think the colour of your neighbour's skin, or their sexual orientation, or the religion they practice is a problem, it's not. Turns out it's YOU that's the problem.

Pol Pot killed 3 million people. Vought and Musk have him beat three times over.
As a direct result of the obscene actions of Russell Vought and Elon Musk in destroying USAID, we can expect “at least 9.4 million additional deaths by 2030, if the current funding trend continues.

About 2.5 million of those deaths are projected to be children under the age of 5.”

Calling it now: the US political media's treatment of AOC is going to make their treatment of Hillary Clinton or Al Gore look like a model of balance and discretion.

Trump: I have nothing to hide. I have been exonerated. I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I have been totally exonerated on Epstein.

I still can't believe that this happened.
Health boss RFK Jr.'s 1-year anniversary week was packed with new disasters and reminders of old ones. But even those who should care most are MIA. GOP senators Bill Cassidy (a doctor) and Mitch McConnell (a polio survivor) top my list. My latest at @thebulwark.com open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...
