H2P. Be kind.

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

So what changed? The Senate passed the Epstein Transparency Act - unanimously. Now, some of those very same senators are lining up to confirm Todd Blanche — the same man who's been leading the Epstein cover-up. We deserve better.

Wow. The ICE shooter in Maine asked his ex-wife to "to lie for him and to cover for his character." She said he was abusive and had previously reported concerns about him to his military superiors. He was also a volunteer firefighter, but was removed after several spats with department leadership.

An ex-wife told the Press Herald that David Brouillette called her and admitted he was the ICE agent who shot Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero.

A school counselor needs a master’s degree, state certification, supervised clinical hours, and a license. Many years of preparation and professional development. Five states, Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Missouri, and Alabama now let a religious volunteer do the job with none of that.

Does anyone else think it’s just a bit odd that Jay Clayton, the prosecutor put in charge of the Epstein investigation, the same one Pam Bondi pointed to over and over in her testimony released just last week, was just nominated by Trump to run the entire intelligence community?

Republicans said we couldn't afford to extend health care tax credits for 20 million Americans. Today, they passed $70 billion for ICE with no accountability, no reforms, and no help from Democrats. ICE was created to protect national security.

Survivor of Jeffrey Epstein breaks down in tears describing the moment she learned her name was revealed while the rich and powerful remained protected by redactions Roza: I kept my identity protected as Jane Doe. I woke up one day with my name mentioned over 500 times.

It’s insane the number of times I see a headline that is like “huge scandal” with this administration and absolutely nothing happens. This country is a joke.

WATCH: “Don’t know don’t care, William? Really? About $300 MILLION in taxpayer dollars?” William Lamberth is trying to DOUBLE @GovBillLee’s private school vouchers, but Republicans refuse to track how many of the kids were already in private schools. (Hint: almost all)
