Every US citizen, including all those in Congress, should put this up on their wall and read this every day. These words are true and most people outside the US have been wondering why we don't see this.

An American citizen is in far more danger from an ICE agent than from an undocumented immigrant and it isn’t even close.

Peter Thiel has — privately, not publicly — broken with Trump on the Iran war. "I think we should not have done it." "There were a lot of mistakes that were made."

I am sure nothing that has happened recently has angered as many U.S. citizens as what Witkoff told Putin on camera yesterday. Maybe I’m wrong; maybe as a veteran I am particularly sensitive to that. But…I don’t think so. I’ve seen plenty of non-veteran U.S. citizens as angry as I am. VOTE

You know what pissed me off about the Ramaswamy ad beyond the obvious grotesqueries? There’s no EVIDENCE disputing Acton’s life story. There are court proceedings backing up her story. And all Ramaswamy’s got is the (accused) mother saying “nu uh” and somehow that’s enough? FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

NEWS: Jared Kushner reportedly had a secret Dubai bank account holding hundreds of millions of dollars from Azerbaijan, and he allegedly used it as a slush fund to pay a warlord, a mercenary, and a former hit man. There is no end to the corruption and depravity of these people.

One way I gauge whether an issue is breaking through is if regular people back home in Nebraska start asking me about it. Multiple people who don’t follow politics at all have asked me about Vivek’s ad against Amy Acton. This is a real problem for Republicans in a way they don’t understand yet.

Jackson: "It seems to me that a case involving a court order like the one at issue here—which left the state election rule untouched—does not necessarily fall within the ambit of Purcell and its concern about federal courts “changing the election rules” at the last minute."

Fox News' final poll of Maine's Senate race finds a 49/49 tie between Collins and Jackson among likely voters. (Jackson 50/48 among registered voters.) The same likely voter sample says they want Dems to run the Senate by a 53/45 margin.

Trump and Putin are "Birds of a Feather"! They both lie about anything and everything and you cannot trust either of them. Another thing that is the same is that Putin is for Russia and so is Trump. Vote for Democrats this November.😁

JD Vance lecturing anyone about corruption is beyond parody. He says Trump rejects people getting rich off government connections—while Trumpworld reeks of self-dealing, pay-to-play politics, family profiteering & convicted fraudsters. Corruption isn’t a bug in Trumpworld. It’s the business model.
