Why didn’t they do that the last two years? Too busy naming things after Trump?

Every Republican, with the exception of Massie, just went on the record in support of a man who bombed a school in Iran killing 160+ kids and murdered fishermen at sea because he feels like they were transporting drugs.
No wonder they were wiped out in the midterms.

On this day in 1969, a new educational show for children premiered on PBS. It was called "Sesame Street."
Photos from the Library's Prints & Photographs collections show Jim Henson piloting his muppet creations on early seasons of the show.

He openly murdered hundreds of innocent people
Has Pete Hegseth committed impeachable crimes? The question is absurd and the answer is: obviously not.
Like so much of Congress, impeachment has become a ridiculous show that stands in for actual policymaking. Congress has so many tools for registering its policy disagreements. Rather than use them, they're going to try to impeach Pete Hegseth. They did the same to Donald Trump. Legislation is hard. Impeachments are easy (and ultimately, inconsequential).
The irony is that legislators are most angry at Pete on the issues where he's most correct: repositioning forces away from Europe/Ukraine and reorganizing the general officer corps.
This isn't about Iran, this is about the fact that Pete took on the bureaucracy at the Pentagon.

Lmao Hegseth just used the "just following orders" defense and now Rubio is doing it….they should brush up on the a Nuremberg trials and find out how well that defense strategy worked out for the Nazis

Almost always, when someone of note is being accused of a misdeed, and he says 'make no mistake, this isn't about me,' it is, indeed, about him.

Only taking questions from friendly if not supportive press outlets is not the sign of a confident public official.

IMPEACHMENT, Article III
The law requires our military to withdraw from hostilities within 60 days if Congress does not authorize the activity.
Operation Epic Fury has been underway for 256 days. Congress has not authorized it.
Hegseth is breaking the law.
Not even debatable.

If by “lawful military operations” you mean bombing an Iranian school and killing 165 kids, or blowing up “drug boats” and then killing the survivors clinging to the wreckage, then your understanding of international law is apparently as dead as the people you left in the water.

This is what weakness looks like

Hegseth must be held accountable for:
1 Murdering 250 fishermen suspected of drug trafficking w/o due process
2 Murdering 160 Iranian school girls
3 Lying about how many US troops have been killed/wounded in Iran War
4 Unjustifiably firing black and/or female generals&admirals

She’s right, once again.
Trump is about to get even weirder and, sadly, more dangerous.
From our last taping before the midterms, here's my prediction for @karaswisher about how he'll handle defeat.
(He's already doing the "blame everyone else" part.)

I cannot imagine a more brutally nasty, incompetent, dangerous person to serve as White House Chief of Staff than Stephen Miller.
This is the same guy who smeared Renée Good and Alex Pretti as “domestic terrorists” and “assassins” after federal agents murdered them.
Miller represents everything Americans just overwhelmingly rejected.

Massie: "I hope Hegseth addresses the 8 articles of impeachment, and doesn‘t get up and misquote the Bible in Quentin Tarantino fashion and do some pull-ups and call everybody fat and gay. I may have just given you half his speech, I don't know."
