Shocking no one with a brain, CA State Bar confirms “No record of White House press sec Katie Zacharia having been licensed to practice law in CA” despite her claims. Which makes sense because her boss’s Alma mater had no record of him being a top student despite his claims. Liars hiring liars.

Israel was killing Palestinians before 2023. In 2014 three Israelis abducted a Palestinian child, Abu Khdeir. They took him to a forest, tied him up, poured gasoline on him and BURNED HIM ALIVE!

The argument for taxing the rich harder is about paying for social support systems, yes, but its utility in democracy is limiting the amount of power that any one individual can wield over the rest of us

Because my job can be a real bummer, when I am searching for instances of sexual violence among men in a defined group, you don't search for "sexual assault," you search for "hazing." We have euphemized language because we really, really don't want to address this in any real terms.

There is absolutely no viable path forward for this country that doesn’t hinge on extreme accountability for everyone involved in this administration. They’re going to whine about politicization and credulous media types will echo them, but the thing is, they’ve committed tons of obvious crimes!

The key part is at the end of this clip where Jackson calls out Collins for her role as Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee. She could have done more than simply vote for war powers resolutions to stop the Iran War. The power of the purse is the ultimate war power.

Police compete in racist game-to see who can arrest more Black people. Encouraged each other to use excessive force. Even to fire their guns in direction of Black residents. Call them N-words in writing to the group chat.

Darren Bailey doesn’t care that we’ve funded local schools, fixed roads, and expanded healthcare. That’s why when he was in the legislature, he voted against budgets, tax cuts, and debt payments. He wants to take us right back to the Rauner days of dysfunction.

When Washington walked away, we expanded healthcare access and freed 500,000 people from the crushing burden of medical debt. Lower costs, more coverage, and real peace of mind for Illinois families.

On abortion, Sen. Jon Ossoff accused Mike Collins of supporting a no-exceptions ban that would leave women to “die.” Collins denied the allegation, saying he supports the three exceptions, while accusing Ossoff of backing abortion “up until and past birth.”
