It was physically impossible for that boat to reach anywhere close to the United States, even before it was a flaming upside-down wreck, and Tom Cotton knows that. He's not that stupid, he just thinks everyone else is. This kind of dishonesty is inseparable from egotistical arrogance.
Q: What did you see in the second strike?

Cotton: "I saw two survivors trying to flip a boat -- loaded with drugs, bound for the United States -- back over, so they could stay in the fight."

“In keeping with other trends in maternal and infant health, we see a persistent racial disparity, in which Black women experience stillbirths at a rate roughly twice as high as white women.

A key factor in the prevalence of stillbirth is the failure of healthcare systems to listen to women.”

JUST IN: Mike Johnson plans to swear in Rep.-elect Matt Van Epps on Thursday — less than two days after he won the TN-07 special election.

As a reminder, it took Johnson 50 days to swear in Democratic Rep. Adelita Grijalva.

Trump won this district by 22 points. We’ll see what the margins are in the end, but the fact that this race was even close bodes well for Democrats in 2026 and will totally freak out Republicans (Mike Johnson especially).
