Yesterday I published the piece below and some folks said it was alarmist evidence of TDS (how anyone could say that after Jan. 6 boggles the mind). And today Trump says Republicans should take over the voting in multiple places. We're still too complacent.…

In any other time or presidency, this story. reported by @WSJ, would be an earthquake of a scandal. The size, scope and implications of it are unprecedented and mind-boggling. But will this Congress, which brayed endlessly about the "Biden crime family," probe it? Not a chance.

To be clear about what this depicts: An immigration officer threw a woman onto the ground. Alex Pretti, a registered nurse on scene as a legal observer, is filming and goes to help the woman up. He is then pepper sprayed and thrown to the ground for no discernible reason. Many…

The government's stated rationale for this killing is that the victim was carrying a legal firearm. The very people that told us we need to accept mass child slaughter for the right to protect ourselves from scary Obama, now say the govt can kill you if you possess a weapon.

The 2nd Amendment protects us from government tyranny crowd changes their tune right quick when their preferred jack booted thugs kill a dude with a gun.

In multiple interviews, stakeholders told me that the White House did not exert any political pressure on lawmakers to pass year-round E15. If WH did, the bill would've likely passed.

In @nytopinion One year ago, President Trump took an oath to serve the American people. Instead, he used the presidency to enrich himself, the @nytimes editorial board writes. This is how Trump has pocketed at least $1.4 billion. nyti.ms/49uhAWW

This should stir the blood of every American.

MN Doctor: I learned that Renee Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent. And yet the offer to administer aid from a physician on the scene was denied. I can't say how much that stirs the blood of everyone behind me here as we try to fulfill our oath…

Canadian Prime Minister @MarkJCarney's speech at Davos is quite brilliant. Without vitriol or exaggeration, he outlines the harsh new world that Trump is leading us all toward. Here's the full text; much recommended: globalnews.ca/news/11620877/…

As horrible as it was to live through January 6, I remember feeling at the end of that day that decency had won. We did our Constitutional duty. And surely Americans would come together to say that a mob attacking cops and a president using violence to stay in power was wrong. 1/

Amid whitewashing of history of Capitol siege, new transcript of House interview w/ Jack Smith highlights police injuries: "Cracked ribs, traumatic brain injuries, smashed spinal disks & heart attacks as rioters used bats, poles, chemical sprays, stolen police shields & batons"

Jack Smith spent more than 8 hours answering questions in a closed-door deposition before the House Judiciary Committee on Dec 17. It’s worth watching — you can see why Smith wanted to testify publicly — and why the committee waited until New Year’s Eve to release the video.…
