You'll never guess what the "startling admission" was Just kidding, it's very obvious: the ICE agents lied. The shooting victim didn't assault them.

In response to many questions tonight… Yes, I oppose pardoning a man convicted in U.S. courts by a U.S. jury of trafficking 400 tons of cocaine into the our country. That is 800,000 pounds of cocaine. It is not defensible.

This photo deserves a Pulitzer because it shows Federal agents shooting the Pastor of the First Presbyterian church in Chicago with rubber bullets in the head and spraying him with tear gas in the face when he was just there to pray with everyone!

No, actually Chip Roy is admitting that married women are going to be required to take extra steps to register to vote that are not required of men - married or single. Married women will be unequal in this bill and have extra burdens to register to vote. Oh, you will LET us

Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro: The Trump economy is perfect. It’s probably one of the best years in modern American economic history. Not hyperbole. (It was the worst January for layoffs in 17 years.)

Aaron Rupar Greer claims tariffs aren't regressive because the wealthy buy more? Brilliant logic: since billionaires purchase more yachts, a single mother's sneaker tax becomes progressive. Admin math: where suffering scales inversely with income. Reality: Yale Budget Lab confirms tariffs

Aaron Rupar The core flaw in Greer's analysis is that he looks only at total dollars spent. Rich people buy the most stuff, that's true. But "regressive" means the cost hurts poorer people more as a share of their income. Poor families spend almost all their money on clothes, shoes, TVs

Several current and former defense officials expressed astonishment at Butler’s ouster, describing him as a steady hand and thoughtful strategist who has earned the trust of numerous generals, civilian political appointees and journalists. They still don’t know what Trump is. 🤔

Ruby Dhalla, who was running to become Canada’s Prime Minister, visited Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club this weekend. Dhalla: “I’m here in Mar-a-Lago celebrating Valentine’s Day and celebrating the great friendship and partnership that Canada and the United States of America has.”

A) hilarious head-pat burn here, BUT B) it is okay for NORMAL PERSON to be confused abt tariffs' regressivity. It is NOT OKAY for such confusion to come from the guy literally/legally in charge of US trade policy

ICE officials knew use of force was rising well before Minneapolis shootings Internal agency emails show a surge in reports of ICE officers using more force going back nearly a year, but DHS leadership did not see it as a concern to be addressed. politi.co/46WPBgL
