#BREAKING: John Ewing Jr. has been elected mayor of Omaha, making history as the first Black man ever elected to the office. His victory marks a significant milestone in the city's political landscape.
Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"
RFK Jr starts having a tantrum as Chris Murphy details how he lied during his confirmation hearing about his anti-vax views
Alsobrooks to RFK Jr: "You are the wrong person for this job. And you had in this hearing today the unmitigated gall to say at the beginning of your testimony that China is ahead of the United States in healthcare because China does not have DEI."

Really stark for a candidate who didn’t win to have to give a speech like this telling the truth about the man in the White House. Pretty uncharted speech in American history. But I’m glad @kamalaharris.com is using her voice & calling on Americans to use theirs.
The way she situated the moment we are in is clarifying and poweferful. “What we are, in fact, witnessing is a high-velocity event. Where a vessel is being used for the swift implementation of an agenda that has been decades in the making,” said VP Harris. 1/2 sfstandard.com/2025/04/30/k...
