Hey, just reminding you Charlie Kirk was an awful person that said hateful false things to other awful people. His espoused beliefs were anti-Christian and Turning Point USA is a dangerous organization grooming your kids.

New: A site licensing Trump's name is selling merch with the presidential seal — including a $20 beer-pong set with “Presidential themed balls.”

Federal law says you can’t manufacture or sell likenesses of the seal without authorization.

I am growing tired of media reports that focus on a criminal being undocumented.

If those same outlets would start using the term “white guy” would people become alarmed at the rise in Caucasian crime?

I asked a DoorDash spokesperson today if the company had concluded from its report that inflation had been tamed. DoorDash spokesperson told me, "We did not write that."

Another reason to call your Senator if they’re one of the useless ones. The bill to open the government kills the THC industry.
NEW: Buried in 141-page text of the latest draft text of the Senate's ag appropriations bill is a restriction on hemp-derived THC products w/ >0.4mg per container—an effective ban on the existing market. Would go into effect 1yr from passage: www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Let’s clarify: the GOP is responsible for SNAP benefits NOT being paid when there is a $5B congressional appropriation within the USDA budget to pay SNAP benefits in case of government shut down. The both of these clowns are lying. 🤥
