Jim Jordan has never passed the bar exam. The fact that he serves as Chair of the House Judiciary Committee tells you everything about how seriously today’s Republican Party takes its responsibility for legal oversight.

Everyone gets to bite the apple of value after the patient pays the pharmacy that whole value price. The bigger the price is set the bigger the bite marks are in that consumer’s apple as it gets passed along to maximize profits.
AOC: This is quite a bit of market concentration. Agreed?

CVS HEALTH CHAIR DAVID JOYNER: No. I'd suggest it's a model that works well for the consumer

AOC: It works well for CVS. Health insurance gets a cut, pharmacy benefit manager gets one, drug manufacturer gets one, & the patient gets screwed

Jamie Raskin says he has signatures from all the dems on the panel to recall Jack Smith to testify after the potential release of Volume II of his final report on the classified documents case. The block on the report is set to expire February 24th.

Credibility is in this chair testifying to Congress. Ears open remember what this sounds like please. For all our sakes.
Woah! Jack Smith just said that Trump intimidated witnesses via death threats!

Meanwhile back in the villages we call home…
The US withdrawal from #WHO became official today, leaving the world less prepared for dangerous disease outbreaks. “When that will bite us in the ass, it’s impossible to predict. But there is a 100% certainty that it will bite us in the ass,” one expert told me. www.statnews.com/2026/01/22/u...
U.S. makes exit from the WHO complete
The U.S. withdrawal from the WHO became official Thursday, formalizing a fissure between the Trump administration and the Geneva-based global health agency.

Let’s carve this statement into granite and mount it on the JFK Kennedy Arts Center.
Jack Smith looked Jim Jordan in the eye and said the evidence showed Trump “willfully broke” the law—and he’d do it again.
The cases didn’t die because the facts changed. They died because power protects itself.

Bingo
LOFGREN: The fact that Trump, according to Senator Graham, would be that 'Martians stole the election' -- what does that tell you about Trump's state of mind?

JACK SMITH: Trump was not looking for honest answers about if there was fraud in the election. He was looking for ways to stay in power

Evidence
If this is accurate, Good was killed by a bullet fired after there was any conceivable argument Agent Ross was in the path of her vehicle, which means there was no legal justification for using deadly force. But DOJ says there’s no reason to investigate.

The house of empty cards built against Jack Smith is falling down. Jack Smith not only has credibility. He built the case with evidence. Two grand juries agreed with Jack Smith.
Jim Jordan is now hammering on Cassidy Hutchinson, and how Smith wouldn't use her as a witness in court. The reason isn't because she's a liar, but because her testimony was second-hand. Totally disingenuous of him to consider hearsay a lie.

Renee Good Family’s Lawyer: We gave the federal government a letter of preservation last week. We asked them to preserve that vehicle to make sure that it’s stored in a safe manner so that none of the evidence gets altered…That is an example of one piece of evidence that we don’t have access to.

We pay these public servants to do their jobs.
Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)

This new whistleblower report is on par with the Zelensky call - not just because it’s violative of law - but because they also tried to keep people from seeing it. I’ve been doing this for a long time and this is absolutely explosive news. Impeachable and criminal. Swift accountability must follow.

JUST IN: Jack Smith told Congress Trump “willfully broke the law… the very laws he took an oath to uphold” — engaging in a criminal scheme to overturn the 2020 election and illegally retaining classified documents after leaving office.

ICE is using a facial recognition app called Mobile Fortify

They're scanning everyone's faces, fingerprinting detainees, and forcing them to provide DNA samples

The Trump regime is creating a general warrant for our persons, the kind of abuse that ignited the American Revolution

I do not have any sarcasm to give this abomination of a court system. Raw systematic kangaroo reinvention designed to politicize racism and hate and dysfunction.
I spent the morning at the San Antonio immigration court. It’s out of control.

Crawling with ICE - arresting legal immigrants showing up for court appearances.

I asked one officer who they are prioritizing. His answer: everyone.

I need to share with you what I saw.

Standing against the wind.
They clearly believed that Minneapolis would riot after they killed one of us. We didn’t, we organized. We followed them, we monitored them. We alerted our neighbors. We fought them in the courts. And now they’re desperate, so they’re brutalizing us, without a hint of legitimate government purpose.

The dysfunctional abusive ICE led by dismally abusive dysfunctional human beings.
They are targeting children because they are trying incite violence. I have talked to many journalists today, and they all made the same observation: Border Patrol and ICE have been rolling around with maximum aggression, lingering for ages as crowds, gather, seemingly trying to cause a riot.
