Rep. Jasmine Crockett Grills DHS Sec. Krisi Noem YouTube video by electron media group, inc.

The difference between the two parties is once again on full display. Despite a heartbreaking loss, Jasmine Crockett immediately returns to Washington to represent her constituents.

Rep. Crockett, you waged a clean campaign and your constituents should be proud. We haven't seen the last of you.

Welcome to the world of voter suppression.

If it appears Democrats will win the Senate, I predict Supreme Court justices Thomas, Alito, or both, will announce their retirements this fall.

Face it, old people. Bad Bunny is the Gen-Z Elvis.

I can't help but chuckle at oldsters' over-the-top reactions to Bad Bunny's halftime appearance. Had Super Bowl halftime shows and cable channels existed in the day, oldsters would have switched channels on Elvis to watch Perry Como.

ICE plans ‘mega’ Texas detention center in Hutchins to hold 9,500, agency doc shows An internal agency document reviewed by The Dallas Morning News identifies, for the first time, the address of the Hutchins warehouse and names three other...

"In April, Todd Lyons, the acting director for ICE, said at a border security conference in Phoenix the agency should treat deportations in the same way Amazon delivers packages with intense speed.

"He said he wanted deportations to mirror Amazon Prime 'but with human beings.'" The Arizona Mirror.

Milan mayor calls ICE "a militia that kills" and says agents not welcome as part of U.S. Olympic security As reports say ICE will join the U.S. security detail at the Winter Olympics in Milan, the Italian city's mayor calls it "a militia that kills."

ICE has become so fascist even Italians are offended.

History doesn't repeat itself, but it rhymes

Gun rights groups challenge shooting of legally armed Minneapolis man Videos show he was holding a cell phone, not his gun.

I get tired of having to say this. The first and second amendments are oil and water. Each may indeed have a valid purpose, but they don't mix. Don't bring your political opinions to a firing range, and don't bring a weapon to a peaceful protest.

The sun struggles to break through the clouds as viewed through an ice-streaked window on a snowy Sunday morning in Dallas.

Two homicides in Hennepin County thus far in 2026, both by federal agents. Who will protect us from our protectors?

Albino pigeon?

Calling all birders: What's a snow white pigeon doing pecking around in downtown Dallas?

Have pigeons up north adapted to be white to blend in with winter snow, and this one got somehow misplaced? Or, is this an honest-to-goodness freak of nature?

Enquiring minds want to know.
