Bove’s confirmation hearing for the 3rd Circuit is on Wednesday. His own former DOJ colleagues say they don’t trust him to be impartial. Watch the video & insist that your senators do too before they vote.
The Senate must reject Emil Bove's nomination to the federal bench. His reprehensible conduct at the Justice Department disqualifies him from a lifetime appointment as a federal judge.

Once again, how does this fit into the MAHA agenda?
RFK Jr’s whole shtick is Americans don’t need more access to medical care. They need only healthier food and fewer environmental toxins. Meanwhile the administration is reducing nutritional assistance and increasing environmental toxins.

Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time.

To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

A British theory from 2005 suggests that, for a variety of reasons, the 3d Monday in January - termed Blue Monday - is the most depressing day of the year. (Google it)

Seems close to the mark.

CNN reports that the January 6 criminals have been told they are invited to attend inaugural balls tonight. They are going to be released from the D.C. jail momentarily.

In the space of half a day, the new administration has trashed the Constitution, subverted the independence of the DOJ, granted a broad amnesty to traitors, abandoned the global community on climate and public health, and launched a wide-ranging attack on minority rights.

Crockett: The fact that we have Americans that are saying, wait a minute, are you saying that tariffs are going to negatively impact me? It's kind of like that wall that we are still waiting on Mexico to build, that they are going to pay for. No, we are going to pay for it.

So let me get this straight.

If you apply for a job at a grocery store, you have to undergo a background check.

But, if you apply to be Director of National Intelligence, you don't?

The president-elect and his team have spent much of November baiting and trolling their opponents while throwing red meat to the MAGA faithful. But Americans shouldn’t fall for it this time.
