This would not be happening if Speaker Mike Johnson thought his own party didn't have enough votes to impeach Pete Hegseth. Pete is such a wildly incompetent buffoon, his own party wants to kick him to the curb. #CabinetOfClowns.

Since it is Constitution Day, I have a question for all you Christian nationalists out there. QUESTION: "How many times does the Constitution mention Jesus?" ANSWER: "Zero times. That's right—NEVER." Thank you for your strenuous lack of attention to this fact.

Jared Kushner is currently negotiating for the USA. How gifted is Jared at negotiating? In 2007, Jared bought an office tower at the top of the market, the most expensive single-building real estate purchase in NYC history. The market tanked in 2008, leaving his company over $1 billion in debt.

We need to protect Social Security for the next generation.
The Social Security payroll tax is capped at $184,500 in income. So if you're a nurse or construction worker, you pay Social Security on 100% of your income. But if you're a lawyer raking in millions, you only pay Social Security on a tiny fraction of your income. That is not right.
