I would love to be a fly on the gold plated wall of the White House tonight. Lots of interesting stuff, I’m sure.

Licensed hair stylists receive more training than most law enforcement officers. Yet, when they make a mistake, you only get a bad haircut. When law enforcement officers make a mistake, someone gets shot.

Wyoming U.S. Sen. Cynthia Lummis told a reporter last week that she once thought "the First Amendment should always be sort of the ultimate right. And that there should be almost no checks and balances on it. I don't feel that anymore."
Lummis now says her position never shifted.

I have a solution to the outrage against MSM. Cut all ties. Cancel your subscription and/or don’t watch. Give them none of your attention. It’s not hard. There’s plenty of objective options out there to keep you informed.

“Also, as I was swimming in sewage, I saw many children suffering from poorly functioning chloroplasts. I just looked at their fingernails. Their photosynthetic abilities are well below what they should be.”

wtf is this nonsense? He thinks he can understand kid’s “mitochondrial challenges” just by looking at them?

Could ICE, who are allegedly law enforcement, be held liable for not abiding Good Samaritan Laws, or the like, in the event of an actual crime or emergency? I’m no lawyer, so I was just curious.

Isaiah has been dragged to the ground and arrested inside of the Texas State Capitol for speaking out against Greg Abbott and Donald Trump’s illegal gerrymandering. We are waiting for more information as it develops.

We said Rep. Hageman should host some town halls, and the dates were posted the very next day. 🤔
Can we take credit? Absolutely not!
Can we make sure you know where to show up? That's what we're doing!

The whole “You didn’t hear or see what you thought because I say so” approach should have never been viable. It’s especially true now that the only people who would agree to it you just called stupid.

Here’s my prediction for trump’s Epstein distraction within the week:
trump: our DOJ is doing such a tremendous job. We’ve just discovered Bidengate.
maga: like Obamagate?
trump: this makes Obamagate look like child’s play.
maga: what is it?
trump: it’s so bad, I’m never going to actually say

In all the photos of ICE that I’ve seen, none of them fit the typical law enforcement physical stereotypes. The guys in this photo look (from what you can see) way too young to be federal agents. These are mom’s basement, cosplayers. Convince me otherwise.
If you’ve got a badge and a gun but think your actions are shameful enough to need a mask, you should quit.
