We are so not ready for war on this land 😭😭😭😭

Markwayne Mullin has never served in the military or law enforcement. He made a living in the construction industry and his only academic credential is an associates' degree in the trades. He's done MMA and he thinks that combat sports makes him the same as the military. It does not.

❗On Friday evening, the CAJ learned that journalist Rachel Gilmore had recently been approached in public by individuals linked to, or implicated in, an investigation she had written, and was published by The Tyee that focused on white nationalists.

Don’t let Fox get away with it this time. Spread the word.

Fox & Friends Weekend replaced footage of Trump attending yesterday’s dignified transfer with a clip from 2025.

They clearly didn’t want their audience to see him disrespecting fallen soldiers wearing a baseball cap.

I can’t stop laughing. Perhaps this is my Joker moment but everything is so insane. This man is the nom to run Homeland Security and he is dumb as a box of rocks and also paranoid and racist.

who made this

“Mr President, the bombings have begun in Tehran and also customers are complaining we have run out of shrimp at the pool buffet.”

FACT FOCUS: A look at Trump's false and misleading claims in his State of the Union speech On inflation, immigration, tariffs and war, he presented a frequently distorted account as he claimed a “turnaround for the ages” and myriad achievements that don’t pass scrutiny.

RFK Jr: I'm not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats.

Ladies and gentlemen, the US Secretary of health and Human Services! !

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

“Imagine if we had to follow the law”

The reviews for “Melania” are going to be far more entertaining than the movie. What a fabulous headline:

CN The FBl's arrest of our former CNN colleague Don Lemon raises profoundly concerning questions about press freedom and the First Amendment. The Department of Justice already failed twice to get an arrest warrant for Don and several other journalists in Minnesota, where a chief judge of the Minnesota Federal District Court found there was "no evidence" that there was any criminal behavior involved in their work. The First Amendment in the United States protects journalists who bear witness to news and events as they unfold, ensuring they can report freely in the public interest, and the DO's attempts to violate those rights is unacceptable. We will be following this case closely.

Statement from CNN on the Don Lemon arrest:

A thread of ICE and CBP sex offenders and credibly accused sex pasts. Content-warning descriptions of abuse

Yuma Sector CBP agent Ramon Marquez, 31, was arrested in May 2025 and has been charged with 15 felonies including 14 counts of sexual conduct with a 16-year-old between Dec 2024 and Apr 2025.

TO RECAP:

-A judge declined to approve a criminal complaint against @donlemonofficial.bsky.social

-An appeals court rejected the Trump DOJ again

-They arrested him anyway

A lawless regime trampling our rights. 🇺🇸

"Fico seemed to be 'traumatized' by his encounter with Trump, one of the European diplomats said. Fico characterized Trump as being 'out of his mind,' a diplomat said, using the words briefed to them by their leader, who was directly involved in the conversation."

There are some photos that become emblematic of the event, iconic.
