Capitol Police chief blasts Jan 6 conspiracy theories:

“My folks were here on Jan. 6.. They were assaulted.. Many of them were injured. They know exactly what happened on Jan. 6. For somebody to make up some story that, 'Oh, it wasn't that bad’..it is just not true”

Don’t let them pull the wool over your eyes and call this China trade “deal” a masterful stroke of genius – this is just another day of chaos in an administration that’s jerking around lives and livelihoods with absolutely no plan.

No one voted for “only two dolls for your kids.”

No one voted for aggressions towards Greenland and Canada.

No one voted for cutting cancer research.

No one voted for higher costs.

Today we commemorate the Six Triple Eight, the only Black, all-female unit to serve in Europe during World War Two, with a Congressional Gold Medal ceremony in the Capitol.

I was lucky enough to meet a few family members before the event. Thank you to those who served.

Why did the White House have a meltdown over reports that Amazon might display which products are subject to tariffs?

Because Trump’s chaotic tariff policy is a hidden tax on consumers and businesses – and they don’t want you to know that. www.cnbc.com/amp/2025/04/...
Trump complained to Bezos before Amazon said it scrapped idea to display tariff cost

11 pm update: I put forward a simple amendment saying let’s keep our most sensitive military info secure. Every Republican voted against it. When will they have a spine enough to say this Signalgate fiasco endangered our servicemembers?

Your job is to make sure he doesn’t have a job anymore
Pete Hegseth recklessly disclosed sensitive military attack plans that jeopardized American lives.

And previously embarrassed us in front of our NATO allies in Brussels.

Why does this guy still have a job?

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

The fact that the Department of Justice has not, and will never, launch an investigation into this massive national security breach tells you all you need to know about this lawless and profoundly corrupt Administration.
