you are nuts
Kaitlan Collins is an absolute imbecile and a pure partisan hack. Have some respect for the two women standing in front of you who are exposing lies, deep corruption and keeping the country safe. The White House should pull her credentials.
The hours after a disaster are critical to saving lives. Every second counts, and it requires close collaboration between federal and local officials. It’s where government efficacy is truly tested. FEMA has been hampered and demeaned. No surprise to read the below.
FEMA Urban Search & Rescue branch head resigns. Told colleagues that TX delay was tipping point after months of admin efforts to dismantle agency. DHS Sec Noem took 72 hours after TX flooding to authorize the deployment of FEMA’s search and rescue network cnn.com/2025/07/21/pol…

A letter from @KerryKennedyRFK after seeing the ICE detention centers in Louisiana. The scenes are horrifying. And this is our government. This is happening in OUR country.
I wrote this letter to my daughters, detailing what I witnessed earlier this week in Louisiana. I believe everyone should read it. ICE detention centers must be shut down, not invested in.
(1/2) This week, @RFKHumanRights, @ACLUofLouisiana, and members of the SouthEast Dignity Not Detention Coalition toured three of Louisiana’s ICE detention facilities. What we saw was harrowing.
I’m thrilled to welcome @DaleCaldwell as our Democratic candidate for Lt. Governor of New Jersey! Dr. Caldwell has spent his life in service — to his faith, to his students, and to the communities he’s helped strengthen with decades of leadership. Dale and I are ready to fight…
Tony Evers has been a model of what it means to be a governor and a public servant. A former science teacher and superintendent who devoted over 50 years to public service, Tony works every day to make life better for the state he loves. From record investments in public schools…
There is something so painfully unfair about paying for airplane wifi. I know it’s like 12 dollars. But it’s just not right!
Think about it: House Republicans just passed the most unpopular bill of the 21st century: ❌ 17 million could lose health care ❌ Rural hospitals shuttered ❌ Tax cuts for billionaires ….And they’d still rather skip town to face blowback in their districts than deal with…
Not good news in the polls for Donald Trump. -14 on the economy -5 on immigration -37 on Epstein Trump’s underwater across the board — and Americans know it.
Rep. @jamestalarico on Morning Joe: “Before I went on Joe Rogan, I went on Fox News and the Christian Broadcasting Network. We Democrats can’t be afraid of uncomfortable conversations with folks who may not agree with us yet.”
A sad and pathetic capitulation by @Columbia that only invites further aggression by this malevolent administration. All the more reason why we all should be supporting @Harvard as it courageously is fighting to preserve academic freedom and independence.

Donald Trump (and republicans in congress!) are just manufacturing distractions. This isn’t a witch hunt. Trump got into bed with fringe conspiracy theorists. THAT is why his base is turning on him. THAT is why republicans in congress are running home to hide.
Everyone gets that we just pay more for goods under these new tariff deals, right? Just a reminder - cost of living is the number one concern of voters.
It looks like Caesar’s Palace threw up in the Oval Office.
Trump: “It's time to go after people. Obama's been caught directly…He's guilty. This was treason.”
This from Wyden is striking: "Epstein clearly had access to enormous financing to operate his sex trafficking network, and the details on how he got the cash to pay for it are sitting in a Treasury Department filing cabinet." Lays out roadmap for DOJ: newrepublic.com/article/198247…
