How is any of this "pro-life"?
Like George Carlin used to say:
"If you're pre-born, you're fine.
If you're pre-school, you're fucked."

Obama didn’t make Oprah in charge of the federal government spending because she’s rich.
Biden didn’t make Tom Hanks in charge of military because he played one in a war movie.
Harris had zero intentions of nominating a podcaster to the FBI.
That would be a joke, nobody does that …. Right?

“I’ll see you and raise you one.”
BREAKING: Mexican President Sheinbaum argues that if cartels are deemed terrorist orgs, then the suppliers of weapons—over 74% of which come FROM the U.S.—should ALSO face accountability for enabling terrorism.
As a result, Mexico is expanding its lawsuit targeting U.S gun manufacturers. 🇲🇽

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

Big, growing crowd just west of the U.S. Capitol protesting Trump, Musk and DOGE on President’s Day. “Hey Congress, grow a spine,” they shout, gathering for a rally around the reflecting pool.

I did a walkthrough, here’s a timelapse. This is probably the biggest demo in D.C. so far post-inauguration, brought together by the 50501 Movement which originated on Reddit.
Everyone was chanting “fire Elon!” while I was filming this.
