The question is, why do 4 large ICE predators feel like they need to accost a lady on roller skates dressed as the Statue of Liberty? These clowns are depraved.

Good job CBS, you wrecked the Saturday morning show by putting bland hosts in place, and now you feature that traitor Steve Bannon on Sunday? I have officially quit ur weekday show, 60 minutes, and now all weekend shows. Bye, done!

I for one think it’s bad that the president can just say crazy stuff all day every day and 99% of it doesn’t make the news because we’ve normalized having an insane president

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was killed by ICE agents after working in the U.S. for 35 years. His sons, Ronaldo and Lorenzo Jr., testified before Congress and reminded us that this rogue agency MUST be held accountable for its horrific actions.

The Kennedy Center was financially stable until Trump took over: "In the fiscal year ending in 2024, when the center was led by President Deborah Rutter and a bipartisan board of trustees, it brought in about $40 million more than it spent" www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

WE CAN WIN KANSAS. ICYMI— This debate 🔥 Adam Hamilton won over the crowd. Incumbent Republican Roger Marshall did his best, and still got booed, jeered and heckled by the people he represents.

Very interesting convo on #JacobSoboroff. As a former Tarrant county voter, I presented my voter registration card upon checking, I was additionally asked for a driver's license. I complied, but had zero clue why I needed to provide that, other than I had a D listed next to my name.

One thing that's been bugging me today: people who claim Dolly Parton wasn't political. False. She was very political. Her art and life's work were about interrogating power + amplifying the powerless. You only think she wasn't political because she did this by example, not bullshit slogans.

Our troops could be using UNSAFE or INEFFECTIVE weapons because of Pete Hegseth. That's right. Hegseth gutted the office that tests weapons. @norcross.house.gov and I are pressing Hegseth to reverse these cuts. We shouldn’t unnecessarily risk troops’ lives and our national security.

There are going to be Democrats who say we shouldn’t rip it all out — it’s already built, we have other priorities — but removing the visible signs of Trumpism is absolutely necessary.

All of these Natalie Harp stories are leaking for one reason: Someone in the West Wing is sick of Harp’s shit. Probably just a coincidence that it’s all happening as Leavitt is leaving.

Here's a fact: clearly Trump needs Natalie Harp like we all need water. So MAGA can clutch some more pearls; as if her weirdo reputation is damaged. Ha!

Look, The New York Times can't report on *everything* Yes, yes, this Republican congressman urged a military-backed coup to overthrow an election. But did you know that a gubernatorial candidate said she didn't like Thanksgiving? You can't cover it all. It's all about priorities, people.
