Van Orden Wants To Overthrow Elections In Kirk's Name

As I previously reported, Rep Drunken Van Orden has not been coping very well with the death of Charlie Kirk. But now he's taking his dysfunctionality to new depths. He now wants to overturn elections in Kirk's cursed name.

CDC Expert: RFK Had No Data To Alter Child Vaccine Schedules

Susan Monarez testified to the Senate HELP Committee hearing that RFK Jr wanted her to give blanket approvals of all new ACIP recommendations, but offered no data to change the childhood vaccination schedules. The ACIP supposedly uses objective and evidence-based information to create guidelines for vaccine use in the US population. Still, Kennedy proposed changing guidelines without any proof or scientific data.

Raskin Grills Kash Patel Like A Chew Toy

At today's House Judiciary Committee hearing, Democratic Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin tore into FBI Director Kash Patel over the massive cover-up of the Epstein Files by the Trump administration. Raskin did not come to play with Patel today, as he spoke of the FBI director's betrayal of the 1,000 victims of Epstein's abuse. "Before you got in this job, you called for full release of Epstein files, telling podcaster Benny Johnson that the only reason the list was not released by DOJ and FBI was, quote, because of who's on that list," Raskin said. "Upon your confirmation, you promised that, quote, there will be no cover-ups, no missing documents, no stone left unturned. And anyone from the prior or current bureau who undermines this will be swiftly pursued."

DOJ Deletes Study Showing Domestic Terror Predominantly Right-Wing

The Trump administration has so exploited the murder of Charlie Kirk that if I were a conspiracy theorist I could easily believe it was a false flag set up to give MAGA world an excuse to unleash hatred, potential violence and legal and financial mayhem on the left. But despite the dangerously irresponsible accusations coming from the White House, one thing is very clear: extremist violence comes mostly from the right.

Someone Tell Jesus Johnson It's A Sin To Lie

During a GOP presser Tuesday, Speaker Johnson erroneously claimed Medicaid cuts are very popular in their Big Ugly Bill, despite polling clearly saying the opposite.

George Soros 'Forgot' To Pay Crooks And Liars!

I made this Bill O'Reilly video FIFTEEN years ago! "The Wealthy Left" does not fund or support progressive independent news sites at all, but if you watch Fox News or any other wingnut outlets, they pretend George Soros is the evil wizard that funds everything and everyone on "The Left."

Alabama GOP Senator: Don't Dare Call Trump Hitler Like Vance Did

Alabama GOP Senator Katie Britt talks out of both sides of her mouth on the issue of free speech during an interview with Fox's Maria Bartiromo. As the author at Mediaite noted, Britt was carrying on about how awful it was that anyone has dared to compare Trump to Hitler, even though his own VP once called him that himself. Here's the back and forth from this weekend's Sunday Morning Futures , with Bartiromo demanding to know what "consequences" there will be for anyone celebrating the shooting of Charlie Kirk, and Britt responding with how she intends to stifle free speech while simultaneously pretending to advocate for it.

'Internet Troll' Kash Patel Flips Out During Senate Hearing

Kash Patel is so far out of his league as the director of the FBI that instead of answering questions he resorts to attacking Democratic Senators who pressed him about Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein. It's disgraceful that Chairman Grassley didn't stop Patel from screaming derogatory accusations at Democratic members of the Judiciary Committee to avoid answering pertinent questions.

Pam Bondi Flat-Out Lies About Trump-Supporting Assassin

The Trump administration is gaslighting the entire country following Charlie Kirk's school shooting death, and it's infuriating. Statistics show that right-wing extremists are responsible for a significantly higher percentage of attacks and fatalities than left-wing extremists. Attorney General Pam Bondi was asked about Melissa Hortman, the Democratic speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives, who was assassinated alongside her husband and dog just a few months ago. Her response was a straight-up lie.
