Let people see Jack Smith for who he is and not the characters depicted by Trump and others.
BREAKING: Jack Smith is insisting upon a public hearing if Congress wants to talk to him
Good. Why does the GOP want backroom secret questioning? What are Republicans afraid of?
Let the American people see & hear for themselves!

Today, President Trump signed a bill into law that will eliminate $1.1B of federal funding for public media. This devastating act tipped the threat against journalism in America into a crisis.

Quick note to everyone pretending that Zohran Mamdani somehow favors communism, here’s the Republican president literally saying on camera that he wishes America were more like Communist China.
Trump: "In China, you know how long it takes? One day. It's called President Xi. 'Boom. It's okay.' Over here we're gonna have almost the same thing. We're getting fast approvals."

MUST SEE: Congresswoman Schrier nails conspiracy theorist and unfortunate HHS Secretary, RFK Jr., on the value of vaccines—and it’s glorious.
Schrier also happens to be the first pediatrician in Congress.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Sayed Naser served as a U.S. military interpreter in Afghanistan. Now he’s being deported.
The Taliban assassinated his brother and kidnapped his father. All because he helped us.
Why are the feds trying to deport him, even though his asylum case is still pending?
Not justice, it’s a betrayal.

Statistically “America” is its cities. But we’re stuck with an 18th century political architecture that gives votes to cornfields & thus makes it politically viable to treat them as some kind of weird tumor.
not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns
los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor.
He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down.
The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him.

In other words, he promised repeatedly during the campaign he had a secret plan to end the war in 24 hours and he was just bullshitting everyone because he doesn’t have the first clue what to do, he gave away all negotiating leverage months ago, and his special envoy is a dope.
