SC’s Republican Attorney General issues a statement responding to Nancy Mace’s speech tonight in the House by basically saying she is an unhinged nut.

If these questions are designed to hire people with no grasp on reality, U.S. national security is at significant risk. Was Jan. 6 “an inside job?” Was the 2020 presidential election “stolen?” Who were the “real patriots” on January 6? Who won the 2020 election? Who is your “real boss?”

A statement from the Kennedy Center

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

Another FBI leader standing up for the rule of law “Today, we find ourselves in the middle of a battle of our own, as good people are being walked out of the FBI and others are being targeted because they did their jobs in accordance with the law and FBI policy." James Dennehy, FBI NY Field Office

Way back in 2016, @GOP believed the truth: the economy is just a complex set of interactions between people, and govt should facilitate that. Tariffs are the opposite. It’s big govt. And they say I changed. LOL

1/❗Michael Clark, President, Society of Former Agents of FBI: "Acting Director Driscoll has communicated to the DOJ, requesting that he receive written assurance from the DOJ that all individuals on the list will be guaranteed due process protections. To date that assurance has not been provided."

When you’re an oligarch, they let you do it. You can do anything…. grab ‘em by the Treasury. You can do anything.

For all federal employees: Before you are locked out of your systems, ensure you have copies of unclassified performance appraisals, awards & other relevant personnel docs. If you have access to your office, grab your more important personal items sooner rather than later.

A location of a chain of Mexican restaurants was targeted by ICE in the St. Louis area. They rolled up and scooped up the manager and 2 cooks as they arrived for work. The place is on a rural highway. All 3 were released later because they aren’t criminals. Who tipped ICE? Competitor? Local racists?

Trump promised to end the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 24 hours and stop the senseless killing, and he would do it easily with one phone call. He hasn’t gotten around to that yet but he is teaching Canada a lesson for selling us lumber, oil & maple syrup. America First! MAGA!

Ive said this before. Unions have a moment in time to create parallel, Non Profit Trust or Associated Health Plans and offer them to small to medium size businesses. Unions can negotiate far better than SMBs or associations . Imagine if millions got their healthcare from unions ? Thoughts ?

You must deal with the world the way it is, not the way you wish it to be.

I'm so old, I remember when Obama signing ONE executive order was tyranny

Here are the options on the table (which are not mutually exclusive): 1. House Dems bring articles of impeachment* 2. Senate Dems play constitutional hardball and obstruct everything 3. State AGs litigate (and prosecute) everything they can 4. Citizens march en mass

Jan 6 must be fully & conclusively adjudicated in a court of law if this country is to ever move forward. They can't just wish it away unless we let them.

You're not overwhelmed. You're under attack.

Did you know? In 1968, 24 Black men in Pittsburgh revolutionized emergency medicine. The Freedom House Ambulance Service was established to provide emergency medical care to underserved Black neighborhoods—creating the world’s first paramedics.

Stephen Miller is on Fox News and it's not going great

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

SURPRISE: BREAKING: Authoritarian Trump is moving to fire FBI agents involved in investigations into President Donald Trump, AP sources say. apnews.com/article/trum...

Rand Paul just walked by me at DCA. I’m proud of myself for not telling him to stop being an insufferable douchebag.

My coworker is an immigrant from Afghanistan. She said “I survived three wars. If you have lentils and water, we can get through this. I will make sure.”

We won’t be whitewashing history here at VoteVets.

Trump went from the world’s foremost expert on water management and forest fires to an aviation and crash reconstruction expert, all in one week. He’s amazing!

Buckle up America! Puppet Trump is about to raise your gas and grocery prices tomorrow with his massive tariffs! More money out of your pocket because of his *incompetent* leadership. I thought he was supposed to lower prices?? Lies, lies, it always was a lie. The GREAT AMERICAN SCAM!

So if the Trump Admin is saying that Biden hired a bunch of unqualified people in the FAA, why should anyone fly in US airspace right now or buy a plane ticket?

Well said, Pete Buttigieg

Zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights when Dems were in charge.

Mexico is Texas' largest trading partner. Trump's 25% tariffs aren't just going to raise prices - they're going to put Texans out of business. Many Texas truck operators, warehousing companies, car dealers, and more won't survive this tax hike. www.texastribune.org/2025/01/30/t...

Because air traffic controllers and cancer researchers leaving their jobs is definitely going to Make America Great Again. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/31/u...

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker blocks Jan. 6 rioters from state jobs after Trump pardons. In a written directive, the Democratic Illinois governor tells his hiring office that "no one who attempts to overthrow a government should serve in government." www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol...

Not an idiot like so many others, but also not qualified for the job either www.nytimes.com/2025/01/29/s...

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

Hegseth confirms Trump’s directive to house immigrants at Guantánamo Bay.

The man in the White House is bringing in the biggest swamp in the history to the US government instead of draining the swamp.

"The buck stops here"- Harry Truman "I don't take any responsibility at all."- DJT

Staffing at the air traffic control tower at D.C. airport was "not normal" at the time of last night's collision, according to the FAA. 1 controller was handling helicopters while also giving instructions to planes. This is usually done by 2 controllers - NYT

Shameful from this unqualified Oompa Loompa

Absolutely bush league and childish. It’s like listening to a child figure out what happened. Let grown adults work it out first Mr. President then you can send your opinion

ONE HOUR AWAY on #TheBreakdown: Trump exploits tragedy to stir DEI culture wars, to distract from his unfit radical appointments. @therickwilson.bsky.social and @mayaonstage.bsky.social break it all down and more at 7PM EST. 📺 : youtube.com/watch?v=n9X-Q1…

Here's a clip from 2009, when President Obama spoke about the Continental Airlines crash -- the LAST time we had an airline crash with fatalities in America. He didn't blame Bush. He didn't blame Reagan. He just consoled America. A REAL Commander in Chief.

The administration’s gross incompetence in rolling out the funding freeze should serve as a preview of things to come for at least the next four years. That might make things better...or it might not. The latest Press Pass from @cheetah.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/never-unde...

An upside down world. Chair Grassley and #KashPatel frame Patel as needed to direct FBI due to low levels of American trust in FBI. Reality: Patel's hundreds of media appearances spreading outrageous conspiracy theories like this ⬇️⬇️⬇️ smearing FBI is one reason for Americans' low trust in FBI.

Department of Transportation order signed by the secretary tells staff to “give preference to communities with marriage and birth rates higher than the national average,” including on certain grant programs. It bars recipients of funding “from imposing vaccine and mask mandates.”

Air controllers at the airport work up to 10 hours a day, six days a week. Those levels probably have not been helped by Trump’s federal hiring freeze, his gutting of the Aviation Security Advisory Committee, and the FAA chief’s resignation at Elon Musk’s behest. newrepublic.com/post/190964/...

This press conference on the DC crash is an embarrassment. Just a lot of rambling.

Meta is renewing its threats against employees, telling them today that they will hunt for leakers and tolerate zero leaks. Want to know how that is going? Three Meta employees who I’ve never spoken to before just cold messaged/emailed me offering me to be sources.
