These people make Marie Antoinette look connected to the people and empathetic by comparison. They laugh at what their own voters are going through as they continue to mock them as they enrich themselves and have a great time.

Grassley has repeatedly made clear to Iowa GOP grandees that in the event of his death in office, he expects his grandson and designated heir, Pat Grassley, speaker of the Iowa House of Representatives, to succeed to his senate seat. Applying the principle of dynastic succession.

She was an FBI agent. She started an investigation of the murder of Renee Good. Trump forced her to reclassify it as an ICE agent assault. She was then forced to resign. Her evidence confirms that a cover-up of the homicide has been undertaken, directed from the highest levels.

Through the end of August 2026, the House was in session for roughly 383 hours total. That’s an average of about 48 hours per month. Their average monthly floor time is well below the 80-hour monthly threshold the same Congress imposed on Medicaid recipients.

Israel kickstarted Russia's entire drone effort and have been the unseen force behind Russian attacks on Ukraine, together with Iran and N Korea. This explains Netanyahu's ostentatious friendship with Putin and his disdain for Ukraine. Israel sold $400 million worth of military drones to Russia.

The video of this is genuinely unsettling. He literally appears to have no idea what the journalist is talking about when she mentions January 6—even when she clarifies that she is talking about 2021 and about the rioters at the Capitol that day. He looks at her blankly. Scary.

In the 25 years since 9/11, the United States has spent $8 trillion+ on wars that have taken millions of lives in the name of fighting "terror." Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds here on climate, health care, housing, and education?
