"Maybe I’m being totally paranoid, but sometimes I’ll pull up at a stop sign and notice people staring at me and laughing, and I could swear they’re saying mean things about me under their breath. Is that insane?" theonion.com/am-i-ugly/

theonion.comAm I Ugly?So this is kind of awkward but it’s been on my mind lately and I know it’s probably nothing but I’ve gotta ask.

Ok, yes.. time for him to step down. But, in typical Democrat style… they’re not keeping focused on the true villains poaching our government.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position. Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

Whether it comes from mayors or presidents, threats against press freedom are threats against freedom in general. We all have a duty to support journalism against the authoritarian impulse. ICYMI Bill Lueders: www.thebulwark.com/p/press-free...

thebulwark.comNow Is the Time to Stand Up for Press FreedomBad-faith lawsuits, ugly smears, and even violence against journalists are becoming more common. To that, we must all say, ‘Enough.’

Without the CFPB, giant financial institutions — like banks, mortgage lenders, credit card companies, and debt collection companies — will have an easier time picking your pocket. It’s clear who Trump and Musk serve — and it’s not you.

Homan: "We'll find the bad guy, but if he's with others -- others that aren't a criminal priority but are in the country illegally -- they're gonna go too. So sanctuary cities are gonna get exactly what they don't want -- more agents in the neighborhoods and more non-criminals being arrested."
