Tonight’s Senate vote on the federal government shutdown should have been a time for strength.

Instead we saw capitulation and a betrayal of working Americans.

The American people need more from their leaders.

According to Tom Homan, for the crime Tom Homan allegedly committed, Tom Homan should have his citizenship stripped away and be renditioned to a foreign prison without receiving due process in the courts.

Sorry, Tom Homan, but those are Tom Homan's rules.

If you're a cable host interviewing Tom Homan, at the very least you need to ask him about accepting bribes to influence government contracts.

Or -- hear me out -- you could wordlessly pull a thick envelope from your coat pocket and slide it to him across the table with a stage wink.

The journalism inside baseball here is what an amazing hire Carol Leonnig has been for MSNBC (part of the mass exodus from the Washington Post)
“On Sept. 20, with hidden cameras recording the scene, Homan accepted $50,000 in bills, according to an internal summary of the case.”

Homan was being investigated for allegedly “soliciting payments in exchange for awarding contracts should Trump win the election”

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

Was cancellation of the Colbert show a secret side agreement in CBS parent Paramount's $16 million lawsuit settlement with Trump? Seems like an amazing coincidence if it wasn't.

We live in a nation where I am now sending out alerts about what the U.S. attorney general is doing in our name.

It’s a lot to sit with.

It’s going to get a lot darker before it starts getting lighter, but I will keep doing what I do. And, it will get lighter again.
ALERT: Attorney General Pam Bondi is apparently threatening some of those providing medical care to their minor transgender patients.

If you receive one of these subpoenas, please reach out, have your lawyer do so, or send me a copy. My email is in bio, as is my Signal.

Bass: We have to stop this mess. The idea of having troops go through the park and disrupt a children’s summer camp, or drive through the streets and just pick people off…

So our city attorney is leading the way. We are filing a lawsuit and calling for an injunction to stop this.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.

It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules.

It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.
These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to.

This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented.

So ICE took her into custody.

The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck.
