Rep Kevin Kiley, who doesn’t quite fit into his borrowed skin suit, has announced he is leaving the Republican party to become independent.

He’s still deeply maga.
He’s just hoping to fool voters in his redrawn California district.

Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.

Trump’s handpicked prosecutors are going to keep getting rejected by federal judges. Unless the president starts appointing them legally, every federal prosecution is going to be in jeopardy. trib.al/zURnUfL

Anthropic wanted guardrails to protect their AI systems from being used for automated lethal warfare or mass domestic surveillance.

Trump and Plastered Pete call that “woke.”

Umm, no.
The supply disruptions won’t immediately dissipate and the damage to oil infrastructure in the region will negatively impact supply for months if not years so…

Putin is helping Iran.

Zelenskyy is helping us.

Trump does not seem to understand or is ignoring these basic facts.

Hope someone on his team will help the president correct this policy position and...

Thank Zelenskyy.
Arm Ukraine.
Sanction Putin.

Iran kills 7 American soldiers after being attacked by the United States without justification and is a "barbaric and terrorist" regime.

The United States kills 150 Iranian school girls for no reason and is on the side of goodness and right.

Yeah, right, Lindsey, you lying drunk.

“Are you going to tap the strategic reserve?”

“We will start at the appropriate time, which is basically a gut instinct, we will start filling the strategic reserves.”

I’m no expert, but usually you fill them before a price spike…

Tensions aren’t easing in Minneapolis as #ICE continues “Operation Metro Surge.”

Protesters marched with a giant U.S. Constitution, demanding accountability. New filings, per NYT, allege ICE agents intimidated demonstrators at rallies and at home.

This isn’t going away and we need you to donate:

“What do you mean by ‘unconditional surrender?’”

“It’s where they cry uncle or when they can’t fight any longer and there’s no one around to cry uncle.”

They have no plan.
They’re just lurching towards Armageddon.

I mean, if even Fox thinks it’s disrespectful to the point they feel the need to mislead their audience…

Who am I kidding. They regularly mislead their audience. 🤣

QAnon luminaries say they’ve drafted the Trump “national emergency” declaration to scuttle the midterm elections:

“Sir, are you considering a national emergency around the midterm election?”

“Who told you that?”

Which pretty much answers her question. 🫣

The woman on the right is being brought GIFTS from our very own DOJ (including a puppy) to keep her mouth shut. That's who Republicans say "exonerated" Trump?
Oh, sit down. When the government rewards a sadist with a new shiny prison, they have to be held accountable. This is some sick shit.

Democrats join legal challenge to Trump’s planned 250-foot arch “This is a straightforward issue of who’s in charge,” Sen. Angus King of Maine told The Post, citing a law that certain monuments must receive Congress’s approval.

New: Democrats asked a federal court to block Trump's 250-ft arch.

Under law, Congress must approve certain monuments in DC.

“This is a straightforward issue of who’s in charge,” @SenAngusKing said.

They also mocked the "vanity" project.

“This is not Pyongyang,” @RepHuffman told me.

When a government goes after a company and threatens to burn it down because they won't let their product be used for nefarious reasons says something chilling about that government.🗽

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.

We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.
