Jeffries: "When Pete Hegseth comes up to Capitol Hill tomorrow, what he should do is submit his letter of resignation"

As a World Cup host, the U.S. shouldn't be flippantly barring officials from entering the country to do their jobs. It's terribly backward. It's also counterproductive. Global sports competitions should improve international exchange and relations, not the reverse.

If you were horrified watching elected leaders run & scramble because of gun violence, just imagine how my daughter Jaime felt in school running from an active shooter before she was killed. Now, become a part of the solution & only vote for people determined to address gun violence in America.

BRENNAN: The shooter had multiple weapons. You said he traveled from CA across the country by train. How did he do that? BLANCHE: This isn't about making laws more restrictive BRENNAN: I'm asking about crossing state lines w/firearms BLANCHE: I don't think that's something we should be focused on

We’ve had presidents who didn’t understand economics, foreign policy, diplomacy, and lacked knowledge of historical lessons. But they were advised by people who did and listened to them. Now we have a president who doesn’t understand anything and won’t listen to people who do.

I'm updating the famous Chinese curse "May you live in interesting times" to "May you live in incompetent times" to be more relevant to those of us living in the United States right now.

Andy Kim: "Homan did an excellent job dodging your question about why Trump didn't start paying the TSA agents sooner if he had the authority all along. I know the answer to that, the American people know. It's because he doesn't care about them."

wow. Republican Rep. Mike Turner snaps at Trump DoD official Elbridge Colby, telling him his testimony is "gross," "you've been so disingenuous," and raising concerns about his "commitment to the truth"

On the lighter side... Rep. Jared Moskowitz wore a "Justice for Cricket" button as he questioned Kristi Noem. The button is in remembrance of the family pet the DHS Secretary murdered at the gravel pit.

While talking about Alex Pretti, Trump suggests he feels even worse about Renee Good because her parents were Trump fans.

I continue to believe that the fastest way to get Stephen Miller fired is to convince Trump that Miller's ICE operations are what cost him the Nobel Peace Prize.

Exactly, Pam just doesnt think this will ever come back and effect her... I think it will regardless of the blanket immunity tRump may have....watch this space!

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

I get the frustration, I do...but...this sets up a false choice: either signs or vague “fierceness.” That’s not a strategy. Being watched adds moral pressure...NOT tactical clarity. “Fierce” is a mood...not an argument. The real question...is which concrete actions actually constrain power.

In America, stopping for gas can get you murdered by ICE in front of a jury of your peers. The media is failing us. They are beholden to fascism. Warning: this is disturbing footage out of St. Paul. #releasetheepsteinfiles

We condemn ICE's killing of a Minneapolis woman today and call on federal agents to withdraw from Minnesota immediately. This tragedy is further proof that ICE is out of control, endangering our communities, and must end its lawless operations before anyone else is brutally hurt or killed.

Thank God there is video and we don’t have only Kristi Noem’s lies about this - which she likely got from the agents’ supervisor. If there were no videos, as is the case with many criminal incidents, just imagine how big the lies get.

Never forget: DOJ failed us. SCOTUS failed us. Mitch McConnell failed us. Senate Republicans failed us. The mainstream media failed us. The Manhattan DA's office failed us. Everyone said Trump was DONE after January 6. But NO ONE did their jobs to make that happen.

Denmark’s PM Mette Frederiksen is blunt: If the U.S. attacks a NATO ally, the post-WWII order dies and America becomes the threat NATO was built to stop.👀

Smith: He was getting calls from people he trusts, people he relies on—and he still refused to come to the aid of the people at the Capitol. That’s very important evidence for criminal intent in our case.

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.
