What $70 million in taxpayer money buys: a private luxury jet for Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski to jet-set around on.
And we’re supposed to believe it’s used for deporting undocumented immigrants.
It hasn’t gone unnoticed that all four people arrested today, including two journalists, were Black.
And now we find out the charge is “conspiracy to violate civil rights,” a statute rooted in the Ku Klux Klan Act.
Sit with that.
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders is introducing an amendment to cut ICE’s $75 billion funding increase, and to use those funds to restore the federal cuts to health care.
I prefer to keep my true intimate feelings private. I only share what I want which is intentional.
GEORGE WILL: “.. The killing of the survivors by this moral slum of an administration should nauseate Americans. A nation incapable of shame is dangerous, not least to itself.”

I don't know what the Senate is going to do. But if they do in fact fold in exchange for nothing, they will be living up to past performance. To expect the Senate to carry out the will of the American people is to misunderstand why it was created in the first place.
“Jobs are booming” is Treasury Secretary-speak for “most-announced-job-cuts-for-a-full-year-since-2020.”
“Inflation is falling” is Treasury Secretary-speak for “inflation-is-at-an-eight-month-high.”
Newsom: "He is not screwing around. He's changing the rules. He's rigging the game because he knows he'll lose if all things are equal. He did not expect California to fight fire with fire."

POV you’re still not married and your grandparents just found the nicest boy with a good job they want you to meet
A mother of 8 was deported within 24 hours of reporting sexual harassment by an ICE contracto
She was following the rules & going through the process to get her green card
Someone working on behalf of ICE abused her.
She spoke out and was kicked out of the country.
It’s retaliation & it’s wrong

The president had a MRI but won't say why.
He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.
He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.
He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.
How is any of this ok?
This is the third U.S. Attorney found to be unlawfully appointed. The other two are Sigal Chattah and Alina Habba. Their indictments stand because they were signed by other prosecutors. Not true for Lindsey Halligan.
Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"
SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.
Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:
* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled
* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages
GOP’s refusal to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva is a continuation of Jan. 6 and GOP’s rejection of democracy

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families?
Now you know.
AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.
i think anyone taught by ilan wurman ought to ask the university of minnesota law school for their money back
Kimmel’s estimated Tuesday viewership (on TV alone) was 6.26 million, but since ABC’s Sinclair & NextStar affiliates censored that number only represents 77% of the possible number. Factoring back in the blacklisting stations, it’s possible that his projected rating would have been 8.13 million.
Hey! Someone figured it out!!
Jesse Watters just called for the bombing of the UN on national television. FCC? Nothing? Crickets? Got it.
"I have spent the last few weeks addressing and preparing for a military invasion by the President of the United States. No, I’m not a soldier or a foreign adversary. I’m the Governor of Illinois"
Inflation is so bad these days that taking a $50,000 cash bribe can't even get you indicted. SAD!! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
They use "Free Speech" the same way they use "Pro-Life."
They're not pro-life on healthcare, guns, Covid, the death penalty, or war.
And they're not in favour of free speech when it’s Muslims, migrants, teachers, or protesters.
It’s a brand, not a belief.

Just now, 11 state and city lawmakers were arrested by DHS police on the 10th floor of 26 Federal Plaza after a hour of demanding access to the ICE lock up on the same floor. @thecity.nyc
Imagine weaponizing the Justice Department to chase phantom crimes against your political opponents… then punishing prosecutors for not making them up. That’s not America, that’s authoritarianism.
Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:
Stephen Colbert's opening monologue on 'The Late Show'
"After threats from Trump's FCC chair, ABC yanked Jimmy Kimmel off the air indefinitely. That is blatant censorship ... With an autocrat, you can't give an inch ... If ABC thinks this is going to satisfy the regime, they are woefully naive"
Swalwell: There’s going to be a Democratic majority in just over a year. To the FCC chairperson and anyone in involved in these dirty deals: get a lawyer and save your records because you’re going to be in this room answering questions
Walz: This is North Korea style stuff. And it's being done because this is a weak, thin skinned man who's failing as a president. All of the things he promised are not happening.
It's a it's our most cherished freedom to point out very clearly, this is a terrible president
