Want to lower your corporate tax rate? RAISE YOUR WAGES. And not just for the execs: for the hourly folks. Stop keeping people 1 hour UNDER the threshold for benefits, so they have no health insurance! Share the profits with the workers who make it possible instead of the CEOs.

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship. But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen. Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship. But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother. They are both shameless hypocrites.

“The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon.” Fleeing. The vehicle was driving away. That’s murder. A legal resident of the United States is now dead. The threat to public safety is ICE. It must be eliminated.
Homeland Security: On July 13, 2026, at approximately 7:00 AM ET, ICE was conducting targeted surveillance on the last known address of an illegal alien with a final order of removal. An illegal alien departed the residence in a vehicle. ICE law enforcement attempted to conduct a vehicle stop. The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon.

The driver of the vehicle was struck, and emergency services were immediately contacted. He passed away from his injuries. 
 
The Biddeford Police Department and FBI responded to the scene. DHS OIG has been notified and like all discharge of firearms this will be investigated. This is a developing situation, and we will update the public when more information is available.

Jennifer Erin Valent: It doesn’t surprise me that Trump is leaving a wake of destruction. That’s who he is. What does astonish me is how many people are aiding and abetting him, willfully participating in betraying every high ideal our country is founded on, wreaking havoc across the globe.

If it wasn't already clear, you can definitively mark today, the morning after Donald Trump depicted himself as Jesus Christ, that congressional Republicans fully revealed themselves to not actually care at all about Christian values. It was always primarily a grift.

Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.

OFFS. When Iran tried to interefere in 2020, researchers caught them and called them out. Then the Benz-Weiss-Taibbi-Musk-Jordan-Trump axis labeled those researchers "censors" ... and set about defunding them and dismantling their organizations.
