Long-delayed Jan. 6 plaque honoring police quietly erected overnight at Capitol The memorial honoring officers who defended the Capitol was required by law to be installed by March 2023.

Years after Congress ordered a plaque to honor the police defending the Capitol on Jan. 6, it was finally installed — at 4 am this morning.

@oliviacgeorge.bsky.social was there. Read her eloquent, somber scoop.

"Americans are seeing the real “America First” agenda up close—militarism, imperialism, malign nationalism, unabashed authoritarianism—and they’re recoiling."

Trump Administration Live Updates: House to Vote on Funding of Homeland Security Department

Noem funneled 220 million to her buddies and bought airplanes and the GOP wants to vote on further funding for the DHS.
I as a taxpayer, am sick of the corruption and wasting of my money for things that do not benefit our country.

Sgt. 1st Class Nicole Amor of White Bear Lake, MN was killed in Kuwait while serving our country. She was an avid gardener who made salsa from peppers and tomatoes in her garden with her son. She also loved rollerblading and bicycling with her daughter. Here she is with her husband Joey. 🙏

I remember watching the video. It was horrific.

Adding to the horror was that the uniformed thugs who inflicted this savagery were acquitted of state charges, and only two were convicted on federal civil rights charges.

James Talarico and Woke Jesus Maybe we can force “Christian nationalism” to reveal its true self.

It seems there is no figure on the US political stage the Christian Nationalists will hate with more fervor. Jonathan V Last explains why: "It is just objectively true that the teachings of Jesus are diametrically opposed to the bulk of the Christian nationalist project."

The CDC has just issued a Travel Health Notice specifically related to polio popping up in about 30 countries.

They recommend making sure you’re up to date on your vaccinations, and if you are traveling to one of the countries in red, you should consider a booster.

Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.

This is ENRAGING. Not only did they start an illegal war-without notifying Congress-in which 6 American soldiers and many civilians have died, creating chaos because they have no plan for what happens next

But they left Americans in the Middle East completely stranded and vulnerable on top of it
