Yes, Republicans. The entire news cycle on your moronic Jack Smith hearing will now be dominated by Eric Schmitt’s basketball game buffoonery and John ‘Foghorn Leghorn’ Kennedy asking Smith about the Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy. Brilliant job, once again by the feckless fools.

Sounds about Right…. The reason presidents are limited to two terms is that the last time we had a president who was a Democratic Socialist, the people elected him four straight times!!!

Jack Smith defends his team of prosecutors: "I'm extremely proud to have worked with them, and the fact that they have been targeted illegally, lost their jobs illegally, and had their lives turned upside down by this Department of Justice is an outrage."

This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

These are 48-hour reports. Which means in the last 48 hours, Elon has added nearly half a million dollars to his fight to put Florida Mike Rogers in the Senate. If you live in Michigan, please make sure your friends and family know that a vote for Mike Rogers is a vote for Elon Musk.

I'd like rapists to be blacklisted from offices of power. 💯
THEM: "But you'll ruin that young man's life if you report him for sexual assault."
ME: Correct. I'd prefer if he didn't get to become a Supreme Court Judge or run for President.

Gone are the mass raids and militarized metro operations. Gone are the pomp and pageantry. But ICE arrests have hit record levels. ICE operations are no longer concentrated in large American cities. Immigration enforcement officials are also working in suburban and rural areas, all across the US.

It's already estimated that the richest 1% alone evade $163 billion in taxes every year. But Trump gutted the IRS — including the unit tasked with auditing billionaires. The agency's audit revenue fell 35%. Now, Trump's IRS is not publishing data on unpaid taxes. See the problem?

Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Mark Zuckerberg are worth about $1.59 trillion combined. That means three people own more wealth than about 171 million Americans. And we just gave them tax breaks forever and subsidized their companies. You don't become this rich without screwing over someone.

A question worth asking: If a president repeatedly violates the Constitution, and enough members of his own party knowingly refuse to use their constitutional powers to restrain him, when does that stop being one president’s failure—and become a crisis of the party’s constitutional legitimacy?
