A top staffer to Sen. Tina Smith emailed Sen. Mike Lee’s top staffers on Monday about “how much additional pain you’ve caused on an unspeakably horrific weekend” Full emails below

And now, a few words of wisdom from Lindsey Graham…. youtu.be/DATRTj_gFOE

That army parade was straight outta Spinal Tap.

US foreign policy - do what we want or we will kill you all - Israel and US can do anything it wants - kill as many people as we like - Fuck you pay me .

So it was the "No Kings" marches versus the "No Crowds" parade

So Stephen, A Smith, has blamed Senator Padilla for being assaulted after trying to ask an actual question at the Noem Propaganda Conference I've waited a long time to tell you this, SAS: Your only skill is killing air time without actually saying anything Please! Stick to it

Looking at the nastiness of these Fed raids in SoCal, I can’t help concluding that Stephen Miller had a horrible time at Santa Monica High.

It can happen here. It is happening here.

The new Countdown podcast drops at midnight Eastern, focused on Gavin Newsom's startling anti-Trump rallying cry, and his proposal to cut Trump's legs off with a Blue State tax strike. And why wasn't Jake Tapper fired for THAT? Get the new Countdown at MIDNIGHT TONIGHT

Wow. California Sen. Alex Padilla is wrestled and detained by federal officers after showing up to DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference in LA. (video from Bill Melugin of Fox News)

THERE WAS LESS TROUBLE IN L.A. SUNDAY, THAN THE LAST TIME THE LAKERS WON THE TITLE. 76 people arrested then. 42 on Sunday THE BLANK CHECK: Newsom sues; memo "lets" Trump use military even if there's been no violence Get the new Tuesday Countdown podcast: tinyurl.com/4886dx4p

Worth remembering at this moment: “The Posse Comitatus Act bars federal troops from participating in civilian law enforcement except when expressly authorized by law.” Where’s that law? www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...

IT’S ON!

Before Elon checks out of the White House and returns to the company whose brand he has deep-sixed, he might want to have his Doge-icians take their famous chainsaw to this $40million chara—I mean, parade: www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

NEW! The #leshow podcast now lives at YouTube, too. youtu.be/3Y8SgdWofq4

As the Felodent goes to extremes to deport illegal immigrants, it’s useful to remember whom he hired for his 1st big Manhattan project. Hint: undocumented immigrants. www.outtengolden.com/insights/med...

🤷🏼‍♂️

Sometimes it’s not actually abt the amnt of resources that you have, but rather how you organize people in order to use your queue most effectively, (…), because we believe that when you try to address wait times, you should do it in a way that benefits every1, not just people who can afford to pay

Now Praying!

The second worst part of this is Barrasso evades the feckless Welker's question on SUSPENDING HABEAS CORPUS three different times and she mindlessly thanks him more fulsomely than if he'd donated a million to her charity🤦🏼‍♂️

For those of us who have actually lived in other countries, the level of ignorance in the USA is absolutely astounding.

Now Praying:

If you think suspending Habeas Corpus "just for undocumented immigrants" is acceptable, remember that there would be NO HEARINGS and NO LEGAL RECOURSE for ANYONE detained in this way So all they have to do is CLAIM that YOU are an undocumented immigrant to DISAPPEAR YOU

Dropping at Midnight Eastern: it’s almost certain. Judges in both the Abrego Garcia and Rendition Flights cases are looking to charge the same guy with Contempt of Court: Stephen Miller! You’re taking the fall! Monday’s Countdown podcast drops at midnight wherever you podcast

John Oliver is funny but he’s also absolutely right — @TerryMoran shouldn’t have moved on from Trump’s lie about the photoshopped MS-13 tattoos, he should’ve pressed Trump on it further and made him wear it even harder.

Just backstopping Monday's podcast mention that I would be taking the rest of the week off and thus no podcast today. It's not missing; it may not even be missed! Back on Monday.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

According to IRS estimates, the internal sabotage by DOGE has already cost the U.S. Treasury more than $500 billion in revenues that otherwise would have been raised by April 15th. But it doesn’t stop there. DOGE is also in the process of closing down the Tax Division at the Department of Justice.

Maybe Canada can let us become the 11th Province 🙏

We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.

Alex Lifeson was recently interviewed for "News 4 WOAI" in San Antonio, where Lerxst talks about his "Envy of None" project's new "Stygian Wavz" album, Rush and more ... www.rushisaband.com/blog/2025/04...

"Trump was so certain that every other world leader would capitulate because he has such a distorted perception of how people act, in that he is surrounded by the most groveling, sycophantic, obsequious hangers-on with their mouths latched onto his ass."

Of course they used Signal. What better way for Assets to leak /share US secrets with their masters? Takes the hard work out of being clandestine & despite NSA warnings, provides plausible [deniability] IDIOCRACY . @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social @thetnholler.bsky.social @gtconway.bsky.social

The grift gets griftier. Apparently, our strategic petroleum reserves are no longer going to be managed by DOE? The SPR has been contracted out to a small firm that manages self storage units? Nothing to see here citizens, move along. www.tiktok.com/@mrglobaltoo...

I blame George W. Bush. He softened America up to the idea that we could have someone stupid in the White House and things would still function.

They want to imprison anyone for burning down a Tesla. For 20 years. How much for burning down the stock market?

George HW Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Clinton (D) got us out. George W Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Obama (D) got us out. Trump (R) got us mired in a recession. Biden (D) got us out. Trump (R) is yet again ushering us into a recession. Starting to notice a trend?

Wow who could’ve guessed that this would happen It’s almost as if USAID was a pillar of American soft power and influence in the world It’s almost as if it was entirely predictable that America’s adversaries would work to fill the void left by USAID’s destruction

This was….five months ago
