The thing about ICE is that eventually it WILL be abolished. I don't know if it will be in 5 years or 50 years but it will happen. With certainty. And when it does, it will be remembered along the securitate, Stasi, etc, and so will the people who served there.

I think we need to start referring to the House representative from Kentucky as 'Senator Carmack.'

Fun Fact: Tommy Tuberville's degree is in Physical Education and he didn't get into politics until 2020. Alabama deserves a more qualified candidate for governor than Tuberville.

So how long until the Kennedy Center has a Reichstag fire and Trump points to that as reason to claim and rebuild it?

The president is mentally incapacitated, and leaving him in charge of our nuclear weapons is both ludicrous and terrifying. Are there no actual ADULTS in this administration??

When Donald knew there was no real threat to his life, he preened for photographers, yelled “Fight, fight, fight!” and didn’t care if a fireman died. When Donald knew there was a real threat to his life, he hid in a catering truck and didn’t care if his staff died in the decoy plane.

You think Trump might be planning to move the contents of Fort Knox into his bunker? I wouldn't put it past him to hold it hostage that way.

McConnell's aides have a vested interest--namely their outrageous salaries--in keeping up the pretense that the senator is recovering. He's not. And it's criminal to behave as if he is ever returning to the Senate. His state deserves better.

Trump neither deserves nor is entitled to have his name replace that of Doris Miller's on an aircraft carrier. Miller saved lives at Pearl Harbor. Trump avoided military service repeatedly. My God, the United States Navy should be ashamed to even consider this craven absurdity.

Trump and Hegseth's comments about the crew of the Abraham Lincoln are beyond the pale. I am livid over their callousness and cruelty. Get them out of office. NOW.

One of the quickest ways to cut down Trump's vanity projects is to make him pay the bill. He wants an arch? He has to pay for it. Because Trump never pays for jack shit if he can weasel out of it. "It's for the people!" BS. It's called a vanity project for a reason, doofus.

I absolutely LOVE that the media always mentions the salary of Mitch McConnell's chief of staff as " $226,000-a-year chief-of-staff Terry Carmack."

Having seen the photo of Mitch McConnell I'm still having trouble believing he's alive. Weird stare, no teeth, wife holding him up, and amazing lighting for a hospital/rehabilitation room. Maybe it's just me, but . . .

Media tabloids are calling Lindsey Graham's death 'shocking.' Sorry, but an aortic dissection may be rare but it's not in any way 'shocking," especially for a 71 year old man with a family history of heart disease. If he'd died of snake venom, or castor bean poisoning, now THAT would be shocking.

I hope the Democrats running for office use the phrase "My opponent LET Trump" and fill in the blank with whatever fact-based outrage/crime/overreach/illegal action will work best for them. Because the voting record will support the truth of the statement.

I am truly beginning to hate the term 'meltdown' as a descriptor for Trump's reactions. 'infantile tantrum' is more accurate as far as I'm concerned.

Please, press corps, when Trump gets up to speak: walk out. Just leave. Show him you don't trust a single word he says about the incident or anything else. HAVE SOME COURAGE at your own event!
