Senator @johnfetterman.com — whose wife was an undocumented immigrant, and who said he was grateful that her family “broke the law” — now speaks up supportively of ICE as they terrorize others.

What a tremendous hypocrite.

This isn't how gov't is supposed to work: The acting commissioner of Social Security admitted “I was ticked at the governor of Maine for not being real cordial to the president,” so I ended a program in Maine. www.pressherald.com/2025/03/25/s...
Social Security official ended program for Maine newborns because he was ‘ticked’ at Mills
U.S. Rep. Chellie Pingree said the rationale given by Lee Dudek, the acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration, is 'infuriating and absurd.'

Johnson says, "desperate times call for desperate measures"! tRump being held to the standard of his office is desperate? Tell that to the people who may lose their Healthcare, Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, jobs, clean air and water. Billionaires have no idea what constitutes desperate!
Trump has been losing in the courts because his policies go against the law and the Constitution.
Mike Johnson’s remedy for Trump’s losses; get rid of federal district courts.
Have we ever had a bigger mealy mouthed suck up Speaker than Johnson?

It was always Rand Paul’s destiny to be the last man to board the political Titanic and the first one to shove a woman out of the way to take the last seat on a lifeboat.

This week isn't the first time former NFL kicker Chris Kluwe has spoken out, made a difference

As a result of Kluwe's previous advocacy, the MN Vikings made contributions to LGBTQ orgs, suspended a coach for homophobic rants & instituted sensitivy training

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.

When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.

As the military under Pete Hegseth rolls back recruiting for minority Americans remember that black women are the only reason the Army met its recruiting goals last year. Not enough white men qualify to even serve no matter volunteer. They'll learn when recruiting collapses and it ain't "wokeness."

John Roberts is very upset that the public has lost confidence in John Roberts and the institution John Roberts leads following a series of confidence-cratering actions by John Roberts and his colleagues, and therefore would like everyone to know that this is not John Roberts' fault, it's yours.

Arguably one of Jimmy Carter's greatest achievement is bringing the world to the brink of eradicating the Guinea Worm.

From 3.5m cases a year in the 80s to less than 15 the last few years. It's an astounding public health achievement.

Will Pete and Rick sit in with DMB?

Will Trevor sit in with Warren Haynes and maybe Trey?

Will Derek Trucks and Rick and Joe Russo do a thang?

Will Derek/Susan and Trombone Shorty sit in with Goose?

Time will tell but the fact these are possibilities tomorrow in The Garden in NYC is amazing 🤩
