Ron White to Joe Rogan: Talarico didn't cost this state $6 million in fines and lawsuits, and that happened with Ken Paxton. Guess who paid that $6 million? You and me paid the $6 million for his bribery. His own party impeached him. He's a criminal. He's a piece of shit.

I don’t believe the U.S. taxpayer should continue to arm Netanyahu’s government with deadly military equipment.

I believe Netanyahu is a war criminal and that his government has committed genocide in Gaza.

Rep. Al Green is forcing the question.

Using Rule 9, he’s bringing an impeachment resolution to the floor and forcing members of Congress to go on the record.

The vote is coming. Pay attention to who stands up and who stays silent.
