Remember, too, that Hegseth would have been rejected if a single additional Republican senator — or, JD Vance — had joined Sen. Collins, McConnell, and Murkowski in voting no with the Democrats. See: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

Holder: I don’t think Jim Comey stands any chance of being convicted. I think the same is true for Letitia James.
But to have a former insurance lawyer—someone who has never been a criminal prosecutor—present a case to a grand jury simply at the call of the President is extremely dangerous.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.
She was later released with NO CHARGE.
