In light of the mismanagement of DOD funds, Minority Leader Jeffries still non-committal whether he'll vote against add'l $55bn defense supplemental.
In a world full of Hakim Jeffries and Chuck Schumers, be an Elizabeth Warren.
Thatβs just one week.
Offered below is a snapshot since Pam Bondi testified before the House Judiciary Committee.
Two veteran journalists produced a documentary that showed evidence of war crimes in Gaza. But the BBC refused to air the film.

Letβs Face Facts: This Isnβt Going Well (Iran War Edition) talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/lets-...
Yep. I dig
The media, wholesale, derided President Bidenβs pullout of Afghanistan as βbotchedβ β over 120,000 people were evacuated, and 13 American soldiers were killed. His popularity took a nosedive and never recovered.
Didn't the GOP and corporate media enablers lose their shit when the Biden Admin. didn't have an evacuation plan after the
Afghan gov't collapsed?
Come Inside the War Room Prepping for SCOTUS to Upend Democracy talkingpointsmemo.com/news/voting-...
Like Iraq's Ahmed Chalabi, Pahlavi is a US/Israeli project.
George W was the first modern leader to give tax cuts before invading Iraq.
The easiest way to prevent the US entering another war is imposing taxes to pay for it.
Guaranteed if the richest individuals and corporations had to underwrite these mistakes they would never get passed ideation.

White Star Line has promoted 1st Mate Bari Weiss to Chief Navigation Officer of HMS Titanic.
According to Luca Brasi βBrendan Carr held a gun to David Zazloffβs head and assured him either his brains or his signature would be on the contract.β

I'm disgusted by the behavior of the men's hockey team and look forward to the intestinal distress they suffer from the McD's happy meals served them by the WH.
Here is my opening statement to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee today.
SCOTUS neglected to indicate a remedy in their ruling.
Basically said "Yeah this thing we could have stopped you from doing months ago is illegal. Don't know what to do but we'll let you, Mr. Executive Branch, figure that out"
It's a loss for the American people wrapped inside a win.
From what I understand, the basis for Roberts, Barrett and Kavanaugh ruling was the totally made-up "major questions doctrine."
Point 2, they left unmentioned the remedy leaving it to the executive to figure it out.
In other words, wrap a loss inside a victory.
Would anyone doubt Kristi Noem setting up an OnlyFans account if it kept attention on her?
If youβre an American service member who gets killed in a retaliatory strike, your family can take comfort in the fact that it was done in service of making the host of Celebrity Apprentice feel like a big man for a minute, before he moved on to something else and forgets about this forever
What helps me sleep at night is believing one day we'll be able to tax the billionaires who support all this corruption and have them pay us back.
