Sen. Dan Sullivan can’t stop himself from lying about gasoline prices, peddling a fantasy that increased oil production in Alaska will lower prices at the pump. Alaska news organizations have failed to explain that this will not change the world price of oil. www.dermotcole.com/reportingfro...

Yes, Daughters of the American Revolution is notorious for its inclusiveness, especially in the 1920s. Eleanor Roosevelt even quit over their racism. So cool observation, bigot.

Heads up. A Senate bill being sold as “permitting reform” could seriously weaken protections for our public lands, clean water, historic places, and sacred Tribal sites. S. 5653, the Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act, would narrow environmental reviews and

Well, well, well…. An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election. This is what voter fraud looks like.

Raskin: “Donald Trump, he's now out of the closet. I mean, he's absolutely a collaborator with Vladimir Putin and Erdogan and, you know, the other despots of the world against democracy and human rights.”

Rep. Jamie Raskin on what Democrats will do FIRST if they take back Congress: “First you got to put out the fire that's still going. People are still in danger.” “Millions of people have been thrown off of their health care, their Medicaid, their ACA tax credits. We got to restore all of that.”

If you’re under 25, I have old people wisdom you can ignore: When I was 18-22 I swore I would NEVER have kids, I would NEVER want to stay home at night, and I definitely wanted a tattoo. You are never a fixed product. We’re fluid, unless you’re a douchebag like Matt Walsh.

This man was dead weight, hanging high above the ground after touching a high-voltage line. His coworker climbed up, held him in place, gave him mouth-to-mouth. Randall Champion survived—and lived another 35 years. Rocco Morabito’s photo, “The Kiss of Life,” won the Pulitzer Prize. True heroism.

Murderous dictator Vladimir Putin slaughtered children in a park in Ukraine on Tuesday and Steve Witkoff praised him as a "humanitarian" on Wednesday. If you're not repulsed and disgusted, you just might be a sick and twisted piece of shit yourself.

There are “No Kings” rallies scheduled all over the country today, and it feels like it’s hardly being talked about. If you’re attending an event, be safe, be smart, stick together, be peaceful, use your voice, and walk away from agitators.

Politicians use their office to get rich. Those days have got to end. No revolving door for lobbyists, no congressional stock trading, no corporate PAC money.
