NEW: LA County says a sample of the Trump admin's 200 names of suspected non-citizen voters showed that 38.9% attested to being born in the US. But in a new sworn statement under penalty of perjury, a DHS official says its investigation shows NONE of LA County's 200 names were born in the US.
"After a thorough review of the immigration records of all the individuals on the County's Sample List, it was determined that none of the individuals USCIS matched to the County's Sample List were born in the United States according to USCIS records," -Nicolas Bartell, Associate Director of Fraud Detection at USCIS.
Can someone explain to me the need for all the mean-mugging?
Walk-ins, intros, press conferences - everybody's putting on this fake gangster persona as if all of this attention is just so fucking troublesome and annoying.
"Just spent two hours in my hotel room putting together my fit for the walk-in - now let me just stroll in there pretending to be pissed off that other people even exist to vex me so. I am above this - I'm the meanest of the mean."
The star player on one team told the media before the series began that she didn't want them or new fans jumping on the "bandwagon" after disrespecting her with inattention all year. She doesn't need all that, she said.
Well when you're running 14 - 13 at the end of the first quarter and have a four+ minute run of 2 for 30 or so in the second quarter and you're about to play the sixth game at the same time you played your Saturday morning grade school games - and on a Thursday - you're gonna need all that.
When did it become cool to look like you're angry and "fierce" every time someone points a camera at you?
Watch to the end. Last line's a doozy.
After bringing up and pontificating on the subject of "billionaire money in Republican campaigns," @SenWarren is reminded through a brief video that Dems like her are also receiving and accepting billionaire money.
Her response?
"So what? Really? That's where we're gonna make the focus?"
🚨 ELIZABETH WARREN JUST HAD A FULL-BLOWN MELTDOWN ON LIVE TV 🚨
CNN’s Kaitlan Collins EXPOSED the hypocrisy in real time and Warren LOST IT. 👀🔥
Warren has spent YEARS demanding billionaires be banned from politics. “Get the money out!” “No more billionaire donors!”
Then Collins hit her with the facts:
• Elon Musk has already poured $276 MILLION into Republicans this midterm cycle alone.
• Michael Bloomberg’s team is dropping $80 MILLION to help Democrats.
Collins asked her point-blank: “You’ve said billionaire donors shouldn’t be in politics. Do you want Bloomberg’s help?”
Warren dodged, pivoted hard to attacking Republicans, and claimed Democrats have “the people” while Republicans only have money. 💰🚫
Then Collins played the clip of Maine Democrat Troy Jackson confidently declaring on the debate stage: “I know there are no billionaires funding me.”
His own campaign report later showed he took money from at least four billionaires.
Warren’s response?
“REALLY? That’s where we’re going to make the focus?”
She waved it off as “Oops, Troy Jackson may have gotten one of his numbers wrong.”
Rules for thee… but when her own side cashes the checks? Suddenly it’s no big deal. 😤💥
Classic radical left double standard, caught on camera.
Watch the full meltdown below 👇
Do you think billionaires should be allowed to buy influence in elections — or should the rules apply to EVERYONE? 🤔
It's as if history began on Jan 1, 2025.
Trump’s DOJ just charged James Comey for the third time in a little over a year. They lost the first one. The second one is about seashells and isn’t going anywhere. So they went looking for a new one.
What they landed on is a 2016 leak to the New York Times that Trump’s own prosecutor already looked at in 2018 and declined to charge. A second DOJ investigation closed in 2020 with the same answer. But the statute of limitations runs out this week, so they skipped the grand jury and filed anyway.
And it’s not just Comey. Yesterday a judge ruled the DOJ illegally fired his daughter, a prosecutor with outstanding reviews every year, and ordered her reinstated with back pay.
So this is what we’re dealing with. A Justice Department that will keep going after someone no matter how many times it loses, and will go after his family if that’s what it takes.
Trump said he’d do this. He campaigned on it. And the people he put in charge at the DOJ keep trying. All to keep the toddler who ended up in the White House happy. I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).

So let me get this straight…
Amy Klobuchar issued over 1,000 press releases during the period when Feeding Our Future fraud was happening, without mentioning fraud once.
Now she’s claiming she fought to secure additional federal prosecutors.
But DOJ records show that Minnesota’s U.S. Attorney’s Office added five positions focused on Tribal public safety and missing or murdered Indigenous people, not to fight fraud.
The office had 59 attorneys in 2022 and reportedly 64 before the departures in 2025.
So where are the additional fraud prosecutors Klobuchar says she fought for?
And why isn’t the local media pressing her for answers?
Weird.

Barack Obama was in Detroit condemning Trump's tariffs as job killers. That same day, Audi announced plans for a $4.2 BILLION automobile factory in Georgia, capable of producing 200,000 SUVs annually.
Talk about spectacularly shitty timing.
Audi reportedly paid $1.4 billion in tariffs last year. Now its CEO is explaining why producing vehicles in America makes financial sense. Obama is lecturing Michigan about manufacturing while a German automaker is preparing to spend billions building an American factory. The contrast practically writes its own indictment.
And Obama's lecture circuit didn't stop with economics.
He also claimed Iran emerged from Trump's military campaign in a stronger strategic position. Stronger? After devastating military losses and severe economic damage? Brit Hume captured the absurdity of that assessment by pointing to Iran's battered navy, air force, and economy. Apparently, Obama's definition of strategic strength deserves its own chapter in the Pentagon's comedy archives.
Then came the White House decorating critique.
Obama mocked Trump's ballroom plans, gold fixtures, and renovations, comparing the place to Saddam Hussein opening a Cheesecake Factory. This from the former president whose own presidential center has been ridiculed for resembling Darth Vader's concrete tomb.
Scott Bessent answered the Cheesecake Factory sneer by suggesting Obama's Martha's Vineyard crowd actually try eating there. A beautiful little reversal of the condescension.
And that's the thread running through this entire spectacle: tariffs, Iran, architecture. Obama delivers sweeping declarations, critics confront him with inconvenient specifics, and the argument somehow winds up drifting toward another lecture about Trump's judgment.
The original contrast remains the most revealing.
Trump is standing beside an automaker announcing a $4.2 billion investment in American manufacturing.
Obama is standing behind a microphone complaining about Trump's tariffs, military strategy, and taste in furniture.
One announcement involves a factory scheduled to produce 200,000 vehicles a year.
The other involves an ex-president apparently determined to inspect every gold fixture in Washington while the industrial argument unfolds in Georgia.

Hey @JeffBezos you need to come get your boy. Just setting your money on fire.
President Trump's planned 250-foot-tall arch would cast shadows on many graves and monuments in nearby Arlington National Cemetery, the @washingtonpost's 3-D analysis found.
On some days, Trump's arch would even shade the grave and eternal flame of JFK.

DeSantis signed his 8th budget having cut $10 billion in spending in his last 4 years, giving back $9b to taxpayers, having the highest credit rating in US (IL has lowest), and signing a budget that spends less than yours even though FL population is nearly twice IL. – at Wheaton, IL

"I think anybody who suggests that third country removal is fundamentally unfair has to explain how they would handle that problem because when the left had power, they did not handle that problem. They let those people live among us and a lot of them committed additional crimes against Americans and created new victims... We've proved that it can be solved." @DHSGenCounsel

I would point out that @PolitiFact declared these lies varying degrees of "true" until 2013, when Obama was finally awarded "Lie of the Year" for it. It should be noted they waited to tell the truth until a year AFTER Obama faced voters for the last time. Not a coincidence.
