Oh you're trying to say the cost of living is skyrocketing?

Donald Trump can't hear you over the sound of bulldozers demolishing a wing of the White House to build a new grand ballroom.

One side is driven by hate, fear, and outrage, and the other side wants better healthcare. Thus, there will be an imbalance in how each reacts to such events.
This is the asymmetry in our politics and media. If this was the other way around, Biden had pardoned someone then charged with trying to kill Trump, it would be the biggest story in America and every Republican commentator, congressman, news outlet, would be screaming about it in unison.

Trump just signed an Executive Order pledging an Article 5-esque security guarantee with Qatar. If they get attacked, America will consider it an attack on us. I'm sure the $400 million bribe they gave him had nothing to do with it...

Remember that Trump lamented that domestic violence was a crime. This is their version of “masculinity”
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

The Republican leader of the committee refused to require RFK Jr. to swear in before his testimony.

He can lie without committing perjury.
Wyden on RFK Jr: "This committee's unwillingness to swear in this witness is basically a message that it is acceptable to lie to the Senate Finance Committee about hugely important questions like vaccines."

If Michigan House Republicans get their way, Lake County could see a real-life “Purge” with no prosecutors and no justice.

Without adequate funding, my office won’t be able to fill these critical gaps. The consequences would be serious and far-reaching.

The White House and DHS seem to be claiming any undocumented Latin American guy arrested by ICE in DC has "suspected gang ties" without any evidence for the accusation. That's not new for them, but it's strikingly racist, slanderous shit from the US government. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

If this is how this administration responds to a Senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, and to day laborers throughout California and across the country.

We will hold this administration accountable.

The violent detention of Sen. Alex Padilla was terrible. But what DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said right before it might be even more frightening—and it's just one of several authoritarian messages coming from Trump and his comrades.

This is a lie. We all saw the video. The Senator clearly identified himself, and he did not "lunge" toward anyone.
 
If these miserable propagandists will lie to you about roughing up a U.S. Senator in a room full of reporters, what won't they lie to you about?

I painted these strong, courageous, joyful women this week from a photo taken 2 weeks ago. These ladies go for a polar plunge in Lake Michigan twice a week, every week throughout the year. They were fun and inspiring to paint. Sunday Swimmers, 7 x 12 pastel.

These are bold and wild allegations from the FBI, which is moving to criminalize organizations like Habitat for Humanity for receiving grants from the EPA.

In a court filing, Citibank disclosed that it had been directed by the FBI to freeze the bank accounts of these groups.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer.

"Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

Several groups representing “startup nations” are drafting legislation to create “freedom cities” in the US that would be free from certain federal laws, WIRED has learned.

They say they've met with the Trump administration about the idea and that the administration has been very receptive.
