“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.”

Does this look like a “domestic terrorist”?

@KristiNoem needs to resign.
@JDVance owes her son an apology.

Shame on everyone.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

If they could do this to Renee Nicole Good, they could do this to you. This is a lawless regime.

Commentators have to stop describing these rebukes of Trump as rare. The Senate voted to roll back his tariffs. Both chambers delivered a historic rebuke on the Epstein files. The House is voting this week to undo part of his health care agenda and override two vetoes. His coalition is fraying.
NEWS: Senate votes 52-47 to advance a measure restricting Trump's power to use military force in Venezuela.

A rare warning shot from Congress to Trump as he dials up foreign rhetoric.

Voting YES: Democrats + Rand Paul, Collins, Murkowski, Young, Hawley.

Senate advances measure to restrict Trump's power to use military force in Venezuela
Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine, who led the bipartisan resolution, said that Trump's actions in Venezuela are "clearly illegal" because he did not seek congressional approval.

By saying the ICE officer "followed his training" when he shot an innocent civilian three times, Sec. Noem has just opened the door for the demand of her removal that the American public would overwhelmingly support.

In another presser today, DHS Kristi Noem continued to spin what really happened in Minneapolis yesterday despite all of the video that contradicts everything she says.

Noem even went so far as to call the ICE shooter "an experienced officer" who "followed his training."

I just left the Venezuela briefing.

It's worse than you thought.

Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people.

We need public Senate hearings NOW.

Just saying aloud. The new colonialism. The US will "control the incredible natural resources of Venezuela." What might the people of Venezuela have to say about that?
WATTERS: Taking out a dictator in Venezuela -- how does that help the average American?

JD VANCE: First of all, what it means is we're gonna be able to control the incredible natural resources of Venezuela

Swalwell: You better believe that accountability is coming. Immunity is going to be stripped. And to Kristi Noem, Tom “Cashbag” Homan, Greg Bovino—your asses are going to be in these witness chairs.

Renee Good was murdered in broad daylight, and Republicans are acting as if it is ok. Where is your decency? Where is your humanity? When will y’all develop a backbone and actually represent the people that sent you here?

Playing more matches typically also allows teams to grow and develop. As an example, England played at least 12 matches last year while Spain (11, thanks to the RWC) Netherlands played 5, Portugal played 3, and Belgium played 4.

We included the rankings because that is a common argument that lower ranked teams shouldn't be included. In our opinion this is a "build it and they will come" situation. Investment will/should follow if teams are given the opportunity to compete.
