Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

It would much more surprising if they were NOT doing this
Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too?

A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

The left joins with right against the middle takes on the Trump/Mamdani meeting are way off. There is nothing substantive here. There will be no policy breakthroughs. That’s not what this is about. It’s about a young smart guy who knew how to play an old fool who worships stars.

Wonder how much of DOJ/FBI is currently at work preparing "The Epstein Files" to Pam Bondi's exact specifications, now that Trump and Mike Johnson "support" their release.

Gonna look like this by the time it's done.

Ellis is now moves to Oct . 24 in Lakeview:

No evidence that anyone tried to deflate the tires of a vehicle carrying federal agents.

Video captured by body-worn cameras recorded one agent mocking the crowd as tear gas was deployed, saying twice, “have fun!” and laughing as they fled, Ellis says

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 91st day out of the last 103.

12 days of work in 103 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

A brave young woman asks JD Vance: “When you talk about too many immigrants here, when did you guys decide that number? Why did you sell us a dream? You gave us the path and now tell us we don't belong here? Why do you have to be Christian to be American?”

Dems, repeat after me: "It is pathetic to see this sick, old, clearly confused, likely dying old man being trotted out like a trained monkey by his Project 2025 handlers to play President. It is clear he lacks the cognitive capacity for the job."

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

This is the guy who lied on the stand at a trial in LA, telling the jury he witnessed the defendant assault the ICE officer, when the video showed the ICE officer assault the defendant. The jury took an hour to acquit. He's referred to immigrants as "filth, trash, and scum."
