But… the masked ICE thug who killed Renee Good got 3 days of administrative leave and another position in ICE in another state. And now, the guy who posted a photo of seashells on the beach faces 10 years in prison.

DOJ is paying out millions of dollars in taxpayer money to Trump’s pardoned henchmen who were convicted of crimes by juries or after guilty pleas, while indicting the former FBI director for posting a picture of seashells.

Pete Hegseth STILL has not released any findings from the Pentagon’s “investigation” of the girls school bombing, and since he only calls on right-wing hacks at his “press conferences” since he’s afraid of real journalists, he never gets asked about it.

Comey seashell indictment is an abuse of power by DOJ. My thoughts in @msnownews.bsky.social www.ms.now/opinion/jame...

Opinion | There is nothing threatening about James Comey’s alleged threat
The second indictment of Comey, after Lindsey Halligan’s failure, shows a desperate Trump will use Instagram seashells to punish enemies.

Pennsylvania's auditor general, a Republican, audited 210,000+ new voter registrations under Gov. Shapiro's new motor voter system to see if noncitizens were registering to vote. They found one. One. And that was because a PennDOT staffer erred. It was fixed before the driver left the office.

Gas tanks are empty. Fridges are bare. Families are drowning in bills. And while you’re calculating how to make ends meet, the GOP is laser focused on a literal $400M palace for Donald Trump. This isn’t just a policy choice, it’s a glaring admission of who they actually work for.
