😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

Greek Lemon Potatoes Recipe • 5★ • About 1 hr
For the dreamiest roasted potatoes — with creamy insides and very crispy outsides — follow this classic Greek method of roasting peeled potatoes in equal parts olive oil, lemon juice and chicken stock The potatoes soak up the flavorful liquid, allowing the insides to remain tender while the outsides crisp in the oven’s high heat You can follow the same method for russet potatoes, though the final result will be less moist.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

With the retirement of Marjorie Taylor Greene, and the passing of LaMalfa, it looks like the GOP no longer holds a working majority until his seat is filled. It’s at 217. They need 218 for a majority.

In a picture from behind, I'm holding a sign reading, "ABOLISH ICE / SUPPORT OUR COMMUNITY". Standing on all sides of me are protesters holding signs like "STOP RACIST DEPORTATIONS / KEEP FAMILIES TOGETHER" and "EL PUEBLO DICE / ICE FUERA".
