Trump is smearing Ilhan Omar in speeches all over the country now because he is an Islamophobic bigot and he thinks that’s a winning message for Republicans

DHS spotted at MSP Airport F gates today. Much like those khakis, the surveillance state is tightening its grip.

🤔 James Carville: “I’d rather Republicans keep the house by 5 than Dems win by 5… Because then they’re hostage to DSA, and Hakeem can’t move.” 😬Bill Kristol: “Good point.” So afraid of DSA folks who want M4ALL, etc. they’d rather Republicans hold power. Unreal. True colors.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Q: Can you name a time when you voted against Trump and it changed the outcome? SUSAN COLLINS: At one point, I had organized people to vote against Sec. Hegseth. At the very last minute one of our Republicans changed his mind. Otherwise he would've been defeated. Q: So it didn't change the outcome

You think this is about implying that El-Sayed is an immigrant but no, it's about El-Sayed not being white. A person of color could live here for a thousand years (indeed, some have) and still be told to be "grateful."

JD Vance calls El-Sayed "a little weasel who should shut his mouth and show a little gratitude"

Why is he so obsessed with us?

Trump: "They want to cut your children. It's unbelievable what they do. Your son leaves as Jimmy and comes home in three days as Janet, and they don't even ask you. They can take your child out of school and do whatever the hell they want. Minnesota is one of those states."

BRENNAN: Nidal Hasan is in a wheelchair. Doesn't the administration risk livestreaming this and making him a martyr? Couldn't this be a risk to the homeland? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: No one has to watch it B: Well then why are you livestreaming it? MULLIN: The president is restoring American values

Trump’s obsession with demonizing the Somali community is dangerous and reprehensible. Hate to break it to him: Somali Minnesotans are resilient. We will not let Trump intimidate us. Our neighbors have our back.

Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

I hope his kids grow up and see this. And they realize he is talking about their family.

Q: You mentioned you want people like Elon Musk to come here, but he didn't build his companies overnight. So how do you decide who is the next Elon Musk? VANCE: One, does the person fill a position that simply cannot be filled by an American worker? Two, is this person a truly elite human being?

Oh for fucks sake

ALEXANDER: Why wouldn't McConnell's constituents be better served if he stepped down? TILLIS: It's the same Q people ask of Biden A: Biden is no longer POTUS T: But guess what? We're following the bad advice of people who supported him. The difference is Mitch's brain is as strong as it ever was

Tillis is truly, a coward

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

RUHLE: Why do you think the president is taking this position? TILLIS: Uhhh. I think he got bad advice RUHLE: Why do you talk about advice? He's the president! You said he's got great political instincts, and millions of Americans are suffering

Blanche on the Trump administration deporting people to third countries where they have no connection: "This idea that we're violating human rights and the president and US is doing something to damage and put these people in harm's way is just categorically false"

We are losing ground everywhere. Adult content is being banned and censored in place after place. We MUST protect one of the few places that still stands it's ground. It is our moral obligation if you value artistic freedom. Individual support might be small but we are many!

Ok but like what is the point here? This doesn’t fucking help. They still did this to all of us. I don’t want their regret I want their damn apologies

Trump White House misspells “United” on the official “super intelligence” document with AI executives. Instead of “President of the United States,” it reads: “President of the Unites States.” Nothing says “super intelligence” quite like misspelling the name of the country.

I have kids who get sensory overload from looking at their phones too long. The fuck is she talking about?
