It now costs the truck drivers on average $1,200 to fill up a single tank because of the war in Iran.

Mike Rogers said it's a win-win-win. Are you winning?

NO FLUID was found in Nolan Wells' lungs or airways, per the autopsy report by the Mississippi State Medical Examiner.

How do you die by "accidental drowning" if there is no water in your lungs?

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective.

Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive.

Hard to describe how bad this is.

Lots of good polling for Democrats right now. Keep in mind, however, that polling in the last few cycles has been significantly off (~4 points in big races), generally to the benefit of Republicans.

My sense is that this is because voting for Trump drives shame. So respondents simply lie.
🚨🚨🚨

Just got info from the Jamie Davis (Louisiana US Dem candidate) campaign that a poll taken from 9/17 to 9/19 shows he's within 4 points of US Rep. Julia Letlow (the R senate candidate) in the Louisiana US senate race.

Of note, Letlow's name recognition is double that of Davis. (82% vs. 41%)

a year ago the Cillizzas of the world were saying democrats were falling into Trump's savvy political trap by criticizing ICE.

Now a Kansas Republican senator facing re-election is sweatily tweeting his concern about ICE.
They’re panicking.

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.

i think you can fairly say that the second trump administration is the most racist federal administration since woodrow wilson and honestly i'm not sure that it isn't more racist than wilson's
Tough competition of course, but the Trump admin deciding that white South Africans are the only group of people on earth currently worthy of refugee status has to be the most overtly racist thing any administration has done in decades
Hi folks. If you saw this, you know the administration plans to only accept white South Africans next year. Tomorrow is Congress's formal say before the determination is signed. Please check this brief thread on why I'd like you to speak out for the Afghan people still in limbo...

When the president has an open event, the designated TV pool network distributes it.

But on Monday, those cameras were dark. That's because the White House TV pool banded together and refused to cover Trump's events after he banned CNN, Politico and MS NOW.

LMFAO -- Trump is holding an event at the White House right now but there's no audio because the press pool isn't there. The Newsmax host notes that this is an example of Trump's attacks on the press "backfiring just a little bit"
