Massie indicated today that he may read the names of Epstein’s redacted co-conspirators on the floor of the House or in Committee.

If he does so, he will be protected from prosecution and/or lawsuits (like defamation) by the Speech and Debate clause of the Constitution.

These guys know what’s up.

A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

Striking a boat full of unarmed civilians is murder. The first strike was murder. The followup strike was also murder.

We're not at war. It's not a "war crime". Everyone involved, including the POTUS, SecDef, the Admiral who relayed it and the person who pressed the button needs to be on trial.

For everyone saying political violence has no place in this country…

Remember two Democratic legislators were shot in Minnesota just this year.

And America shrugged and moved on.

Moments after President Trump posted a distorted photo of Rosie O’Donnell (along with a threat to revoke her citizenship), Governor Newsom’s official press account posts a distorted photo of Trump.

FYI: the fundraising ALL goes to the redistricting effort - not to a Newsom POTUS run. I checked.
WATCH — @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “Some people may not like how @gavinnewsom.bsky.social is talking. You may not find his posts funny. It is absolutely working. His fundraising #’s just came out. $6.2 million THIS WEEK. 200,000 donors… Dems feel like ‘finally someone is fighting for us’.”

Once again, Van Hollen for the win.
We should all be disgusted by the flood of anti-Muslim remarks spewed in the aftermath of Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the NYC mayoral primary — some blatant, others latent.

Shame on the members of Congress who have engaged in such bigotry and anyone who doesn’t challenge it.
Attacks on Muslims flood mainstream after Mamdani win
Openly racist rhetoric has become normalized at the highest levels of American politics.

Hayes: Every provision in this program is cruel and they know it. That's why none of them spoke on it in committee. That's why they have no response. That's why they don't hold town halls. That's why they don't answer questions. All they do is tweet, repeat, and hide in the back until they vote yes

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?

Pete Hegseth shouldn’t just be fired

He should be ARRESTED

“Unlike the chat in which The Atlantic was mistakenly included, the newly revealed one was created by Mr. Hegseth. It included his wife and about a dozen other people from his personal and professional inner circle”
It’s so adorable that Pete Hegseth thought it was going to be *Pentagon leakers* who made him look bad. Bless his little heart.

The President of the United States engaged in insider trading, and laughed about it.

He is not exempt from the law.

Goldberg on Waltz: "This isn't The Matrix. Phone numbers don't just get sucked into other phones.
