Garcia: I want to remind the American public of Stephen Miller. There's probably no single person in this government that has done more damage and more harm to people across this country than this man right here. It's our job to hold him responsible

A follow up on this Jesse Watters clip from 3 weeks ago. The victim of ICE testified today before Congress that she was on her way to a 39th scheduled treatment at a traumatic brain injury center.

Here are actual facts showing that immigrants aren't a drain on government resources – quite the opposite. They pay more in taxes than they get in benefits. (The Cato Institute, which did the study, is definitely not a liberal group – it's libertarian.)
The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

Seriously, it shouldn't be hard to identify the other reporters in the Oval Office and to ask them why they remain silent when the president of the United States verbally attacks one of their colleagues.

The political party that won a very close presidential race and controls both houses of Congress by small margins says the party out of power cheats on elections.
Makes no sense.
If the party out of power cheated, it wouldn't be out of power.
Fact is, the party in power wants to end fair elections.

By the way, it’s deeply offensive for groups like this to suggest that abortion, a personal medical choice, is a bigger issue than the opioid crisis
Anti-abortion groups have long acted as if abortion is a "cause of death"—embryonic/fetal personhood!—but it's notable that a top group consistently compares abortions to overdose deaths.

The movement is trying to paint telehealth abortion pills as "drug trafficking"

Q: Pope Leo cited Matthew 25:35 to critique Donald Trump's mass deportation agenda. How would you respond to Pope Leo in scripture?

MIKE JOHNSON: Sovereign borders are biblical and right and just. It's not because we hate the people on the outside. It's because we love the people on the inside.

This is a great example of what Marx called "the vampire thirst for the living blood of labour."
Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals.

That amounts to $456,621 per hour.

But how are you doing?
