These are insane numbers. If El-Sayed wins after being outspent by this much, wow, watch out!

Schiff: "The president is entitled to his own views about me or anybody else. He is not entitled, however, to use the DOJ to go after his political opponents. The day we say that's ok and the day we confirm an AG who says that's ok is the day the rule of law becomes merely an unenforceable idea."

Biden was replenishing our stockpiles with US manufacturers using US union steel. Trump has sent tens of thousands of those jobs overseas and has crippled our supply chain with tariffs and none of our allies want to help us. Maybe we can buy our arms back from Saudi Arabia.

CNN: Measles in the US is at 35-year high, the 2nd record-breaking year in a row. 93% of these cases are among unvaccinated. This is happening on your watch. For years, you denied the efficacy of vaccines. Do you accept some responsibility for this outbreak? RFK: Absolutely not.
