Nothing like resigning from a job that didn't legally exist.

FOX: Interim U.S. Attorney for the state of New Jersey, Alina Habba has resigned. Attorney General Pam Bondi says she accepted the resignation after a court's decision disqualifying Habba from serving.

LESLEY STAHL: You contributed to the toxic culture. You were out there pounding, insulting people MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: You've contributed to it as well STAHL: I want you to respond to what you have done in terms of insulting people MTG: I'd like for you to respond to that

But this administration's not racist. Why would you think that?

Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks. They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

You know, this is where Trump's border wall really comes in handy, as it's well known that cows are notoriously poor climbers.

I knew they blamed immigrants for everything, but I didn’t think they would blame immigrant cows for hamburger prices.

So when the Democrats take back the House, can we all agree that they should wait 7 weeks after the new Congress convenes in 2027 to swear in Mike Johnson?

In an unforgettable Veterans Day moment, former President Barack Obama surprised dozens of Korean and Vietnam War veterans as their Honor Flight landed in Washington, D.C. The veterans, fresh off their flight from Madison, Wisconsin, were greeted by President Obama himself.

For almost four decades, Nancy Pelosi has served the American people and worked to make our country better. No one was more skilled at bringing people together and getting legislation passed – and I will always be grateful for her support of the Affordable Care Act.

Great idea! Let's do it @governor.ca.gov

This is some of the best political news I've seen in a very long time. There's a clear a way to end the Citizens United precedent by changing state incorporation laws - and now luminaries in both parties are forcing a vote on it in the 2026 election.

It's truly amazing how Trump continues to rail against wind power, apparently not realizing that the biggest producer and user of wind power in the country is the state of Texas.

Trump: "Windmills -- we're just not gonna allow them. They are ruining are country."

Every day, another reminder that we're being governed by complete idiots, starting at the top.

Trump: “I turned on last night and I see Kristi's painting the wall…If it's black, it's going to be very hard to climb…Is it going to be a two-coat job or a one-coat?” Noem: “No, just one coat. We used the paint you told me to buy.”

Republicans: Screw the little guy financially. They don't vote in large numbers and we're continually making it harder for them to vote anyway.

Re: Trump's ballroom: You could technically “fit” 90,000 sq ft somewhere on the property, but it would likely require demolition or relocation of existing functions or underground facilities. National Park Service and historical preservation laws would likely prohibit such construction.

Burgum: "When the sun goes down, you have a catastrophic failure called sunset and there's no solar energy produced, and yet we're subsidizing these things that are intermittent, unreliable, and expensive. We've gotta get back to base load."

For the “deport the criminals” crowd… Let’s get the facts straight: 📌 Being in the U.S. without papers is not a crime. It’s a civil violation, like a parking ticket—not a misdemeanor, not a felony. That includes folks who overstayed a visa. 🧵

Just the beginning . . .

So, over $100 million spent to achieve almost nothing, but let's make sure we cut those SNAP benefits.

CNN: Three sources tell CNN that according to an early U.S. Intelligence assessment, the U.S. Military strikes on three of Iran's nuclear facilities last weekend did not destroy the core components of the country's nuclear program and likely only set it back a few months
