BREAKING: The scene at the Rayburn Building is pure rebellion. Protesters are swarming in during live hearings on Medicaid cuts. Security’s losing control. Because when the government wages war on the poor, the poor fight back.

Y’all gotta go read books. There’s no way around it. Read books. Form your own opinions. LEARN THINGS. READ BOOKS WHILE LIBRARIES ARE STILL AROUND

Keep downplaying the protests at your own peril. Keep threatening Americans. The protests will only get bigger. Trump is hated. Musk is hated. The political winds have shifted. People are fed up. This is only the beginning.

We don't need to continue arguing about the Nazi salute after Elon appeared at a campaign event for Germany's far-right party (AfD), where he complained that multiculturalism "dilutes everything." At this point, the salute discourse is a distraction from his demonstrated pattern of promoting racism.

I have to admit that as closely as I've followed everything, I was shocked by the amount of damage Trump was able to do yesterday with everything he signed and declared

It's a miracle: Trump has courageously saved TikTok (somehow) after TikTok banned itself for a few hours.

Matt Gaetz is a gun owner and drug user. Did he disclose that when applying for the gun permit? Sounds quite similar to what they prosecuted Hunter Biden for. Huh.

Big congratulations to Republicans on their first big victory of the Trump era: empowering President Musk to strip funding for childhood cancer research out of the budget.

House Republicans should ask Santa for a spine for Christmas. Elon Musk isn't even eligible to become president, but now he's pulling the House GOP's strings and pushing them to throw out a clean, BIPARTISAN, spending deal and shut the government down on Christmas.

For two years, House Republicans have used the false testimony of a Russian foreign agent, Alexander Smirnov, to improve their electoral prospects by spreading lies about President Joe Biden. Now, Smirnov is pleading guilty to lying to the FBI. Read my full statement below.

For years, Trump and his allies have attacked democratic norms and institutions. The legacy media watched and did not take a side. Now, Trump is threatening to attack the legacy media and they are wondering why so few are rushing to take a side.

After Fox co-workers told media he was often drinking or hungover while at work, Pete Hegseth challenged people to find a single clip showing him drinking on the job. We accepted the challenge.

While Hegseth complains about the “Left” smearing him with “fake, anonymous sources & BS stories,” remember that the abuse allegations against him came from his own mother.

It seems both Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk are absolutely furious about Bluesky's growth, even if their platforms still have way more users (for now). If they are furious, something good must be happening here.
