@RepNancyMace Washington’s war machine has spent decades sending our sons and daughters into endless conflicts in the Middle East, with no clear exit strategy, all to serve the interests of powerful politicians. We will not stand for it. We will not sacrifice American lives for the same failed foreign policies. The war machine may be willing to give the lives of your sons and daughters for the price of oil, but we are not.

The Loyola Phoenix, the student newspaper of Loyola University Chicago, has issued an editor’s note apologizing for an Instagram post calling the alleged killer of 18-year-old student Sheridan Gorman an "illegal immigrant." "On March 23, a post on The Phoenix’s Instagram page carried the following headline: ‘Immigrant Man Charged in Murder of Sheridan Gorman, DHS Involved,’" the editor’s note, posted below a Sunday article about Gorman’s murder, read. "That headline didn’t reflect the most important elements in the story, and it was taken down minutes later to prevent any further harm to affected community members," the editor’s note continued. "Additionally,...

@RepNancyMace Just walked out of a House Armed Services briefing on Iran. Let me repeat: I will not support troops on the ground in Iran, even more so after this briefing. @RepNancyMace The justifications presented to the American public for the war in Iran were not the same military objectives we were briefed on today in the House Armed Services Committee. This gap is deeply troubling. The longer this war continues, the faster it will lose the support of Congress and the American people. @RepNancyMace Washington’s war machine is hard at work. They are try to drag us into Iran...

Peter Jackson gave a promising video update on Andy Serkis' progress on The Hunt for Gollum, the next chapter in The Lord of the Rings cinematic saga. "The script is coming together really well, and I think it's going to be a really good film," Jackson teased, before bringing on Stephen Colbert to announce another new LOTR film. The Lord of the Rings: Shadow of the Past, developed by Colbert and his son, Peter, will depict chapters 3-8 of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Fellowship of the Ring, which did not appear in Jackson's original film trilogy. Let the hunt officially commence...

I just ordered home heating oil... FIVE TWENTY-NINE A GALLON. I have (2) 330 gallon tanks. I thought I'd order 200 at 4.65 to tide me over until the price goes down, but today it is FIVE TWENTY-NINE. So I ordered the miserable 100 gallon minimum instead of paying over a thousand for 200 gallons. I love Trump, but this is unsustainable, and there should be no reason it is happening with the amount of oil we are producing domestically. I am P!SSED! If you have some snide insulting comment for me, blast away, but if you do that I...

Former Minnesota Governor and ex-professional wrestler Jesse Ventura is now openly suggesting that President Donald Trump somehow faked the assassination attempt that nearly took his life in Butler, Pennsylvania just so he could look like a hero. In a disgusting display of disrespect toward the victims of the Butler, Pennsylvania tragedy, Ventura appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored to suggest that the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump was nothing more than a scripted wrestling “blade job.” In pro wrestling, a blade job (also known as “blading,” “juicing,” or “getting color”) is the intentional act of a wrestler cutting themselves, usually...

@ggreenwald The latest major poll for Brazil's October presidential election shows the incumbent, Lula da Silva, now trailing Flavio Bolsonaro, the Rio Senator and son of the now-imprisoned former President Jair Bolsonaro (within the margin of error but most polls now have similar results):

The “tolerant” left is at it again, and this time, it’s coming from the “Golden Years” crowd. Two elderly leftists in Arlington Heights, Illinois, have been arrested and charged after a months-long investigation into the disgusting vandalism of the Republicans of Wheeling Township headquarters. According to the Arlington Heights Police Department, 72-year-old Brock McNerney and 69-year-old Moisette McNerney were taken into custody on Monday in connection with the defacement of the headquarters last January. The pair now face misdemeanor charges of criminal damage to property and criminal defacement of property under Illinois law. Authorities say the arrests were made without...

Gov. Ron DeSantis joins 'Hang Out with Sean Hannity' to discuss the massive migration to Florida and why blue states like New York and California are facing declining populations. For many Americans, moving to Florida isn't just about the weather — it’s about escaping a "spendthrift" government that fritters away taxpayer dollars. Gov. Ron DeSantis told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that the state’s massive 1.4 million Republican voter registration lead is driven by results: a 50-year low crime rate, top rankings in education freedom and a refusal to "hunt" down residents for income tax. From police officers fleeing "demagoguing" mayors...

It’s looking amazing. The script is coming together really well and I think it’s going to be a really good...

The conflict has raised global concerns over nuclear proliferation, as Iran’s nuclear program has been a central issue for the president. “They’ve agreed,” he said. “They will never have a nuclear weapon. They’ve agreed to that.” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama has advice for young women starting their careers: Don’t try to dismantle a broken system until you have clout that commands authority. Sadly, that means waiting until you’re older and established in your career to make those changes. Her new book chronicles the evolution of her personal style as First Lady and after leaving the White House. Specifically, the book delves into how fashion played a key role in establishing Obama’s credibility—a rubric all professional women are judged by, sadly. In her talk with Cooper, Obama reflected on how fashion choices are more consequential for...

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said that a legal theory supported by the Republican National Committee in a case related to mail-in ballots “imperils a lot of different things.” Jackson noted during oral arguments in the case on Monday that election practices have changed over time, which she said undermines the idea that there was ever a consistent practice across all states. “It's been changing throughout the course in a way that undermines the notion that there was one consistent practice first of all, or that Congress's law, the meaning of Election Day in the federal statutes, somehow was...
