this is L.A.
land of the free, home of the brave.
This is getting beyond bizarre.
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy:

“People dress up like they're going to bed when they fly... We want to push people as we come into a really busy travel season, help people out, be in a good mood, dress up"

Something is wrong with this guy.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Oh boy.
INGRAHAM: Is a 50 year mortgage really a good idea?

TRUMP: It's not even a big deal. You go from 40 to 50 years. All it means is you pay less per month

We need a new word for stupid.
LEAVITT: It's absolutely true that there's fraud in California's elections

Q: What's the evidence of that?

LEAVITT: It's just a fact

The man is a total lunatic.
Q: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?"

Trump: "No. I think they haven't gone far enough”

Joni Ernst is, by far, of the stupidest Iowans to ever serve in DC.
Ernst: "I think it is extremely important that we look at who is funding these protests. We have to get to the bottom of this. It could be the usual suspect -- George Soros."

Man, what a loser.
Trump on No Kings: "It's a joke. I looked at the people. They are not representative of this country. And I looked at all the brand new signs I guess paid for by Soros and other radical left lunatics. We're checking it out. The demonstrations were very small. And the people were whacked out."

Rule of law. It matters to true Americans.
Wow. Sidney Reid, the DC woman just found not guilty of assaulting an FBI agent, issues a withering and gutsy statement on Trump through her attorneys.

"I feel sorry for the prosecutors really, who must be burdened by Trump's irrational and unfounded hatred for his fellow man."

It's a must-read:

This is dangerous, ignorant, vile BS and she should be fired. Incendiary doesn't cover it.
Leavitt: "The Democrat Party's main constituency is made up of Hamas terrorists, illegal aliens, and violent criminals."

Clear, concise, accurate.
Khanna: "There's no one in America who believes the Dems are in charge. Trump brags about his big victories in the House & Senate. Everyone knows he's controlling govt - in fact, too much. So the argument to blame Ds ... no one believes it. If he wants Democrats' votes, he should get healthcare."

Kavanaugh Stop.
"Johnson said he was left tied up outside the building for nearly three hours.

'I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, and they said I had to wait until they looked me up. I asked if they had a warrant and I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one.'"
Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated'
The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

What the hell is wrong with this guy?
Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"

Why would any legislator vote for a budget the executive will ignore?

In that situation, a yes vote conveys one thing and nothing else: validation for the White House’s blatantly unconstitutional actions.
The White House is canceling food research funding popular with the GOP despite budget chief Russell Vought's promise to leave that money untouched.

25th Amendment.
Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"

that we have built an alternate media ecosystem in which every American city is an apocalyptic hellhole - completely unmoored from reality - and the political system has collapsed to the point that the president can use this fabrication to send troops against his own citizens is a staggering failure
Trump says he’s authorized Hegseth to use “Full Force” against Antifa in “War ravaged” Portland

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

So lawyers cannot follow the law?
"Beckwith reminded him of the federal court order [restricting CBP operations]...

"At 10:57, she emailed him to reiterate she expected 'compliance with court orders and the Constitution.'

"Hours later, her work cellphone went dark. Then her computer did, too."

This is blocks from my home. There is *zero* justification for this violence from the government. This city does not want this. The President is out of control. Congress is neutered. What country is this? What laws do we have? How does this end?
One day after the Supreme Court lifted the ban on racial profiling, federal agents swarmed a car in Van Nuys.

Four masked agents with guns drawn yanked people out, slammed them to the ground, and pointed a weapon at a pregnant woman.

There is no justification for this. None.

This is well said. They are contemptuous of our country, our values and laws and they deeply
hate their own fellow citizens.
I study political parties around the world and have never seen a governing party so openly contemptuous of its country, laws, and citizens.

The GOP seems to hate America, Americans, our constitution, and democracy in general.
Mike Johnson: "I cannot for the life of me understand how the Democrats think this is some kind of winning political message. Yield man! Let the troops come into your city and show how crime can be reduced."

The vicious delusions that have infected a majority of the Court are simply incompatible with a “free” society based on truth, law and order.
This is a paragraph Brett Kavanaugh wrote on his little computer and then sent out into the world:

Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"
