Who has two thumbs and told everyone Bill Maher was garbage years ago?

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

House sparrows go completely silent and disappear from my yard whenever a hawk flies over. They don’t help the hawk. I wish US voters were as smart as birds.

A helpful guide to the current state of US trade policy:

This “genius” genuinely believes that healthcare budget analysts can simply be reassigned to making toasters.

This breaks me — because I can see my wife and daughter living through this. I don’t trust DHS, and you shouldn’t either because it could happen to anyone. They’re on a mission, and it feels lawless as hell.

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

There's not a day that goes by I don't question wth happened to the generation who marched in the street for civil rights and to stop the war who willingly vote for someone against everything they said they were against so long ago and against their own self interest. And ever day I come up empty.

Bullying China…anyone with 1/2 a brain knows we will always lose. Come on!! What a bunch of imbeciles!! And.. we the good people of America will suffer!

Here's the reality: they've backed themselves into a corner. If they bring him home there will be hell to pay. It's clear that they believe that the lesser hell is not bringing him home. So we need to make that hell the worse hell. Start calling and screaming at all of your representatives now! 1/2

I hate to say this, and it gives me the chills just to think it, but CECOT is on (and not a short way down) the road to Auschwitz.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

Wait…. Is Elon Musk in a movie coming to theaters? No!! It can’t be. One more place to protest I guess.

@booker.senate.gov: "Are we a nation that is going to tolerate this, or a nation that's going to stand up? As the great Frederick Douglass said, 'the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the people that they seek to oppress.' How much will we endure before we say enough is enough?"

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

SCOTUS: Facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia JUDGE XINIS: Tell me what you're doing to return him DOJ: We need a week XINIS: You have 3 hours DOJ: No There's supposed to be a hearing in 10 minutes.
