Katie Porter's Surge in the California Governor RaceWith Kamala Harris opting out of a gubernatorial run, Katie Porter is reaping the benefits. New polling from Politico shows Porter pulling ahead, with 30 percent of Harris's former supporters now backing her. Former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra trail behind at 16 and 11 percent, respectively. Porter's advantage comes from her visibility and defined ideology — she's well known and clearly positioned on the progressive spectrum.California's jungle primary system means all candidates run on the same ballot, and the top two — regardless of party — face off in the general. Right now, two Republicans are splitting their share of the vote, which adds up to something in the thirties. Porter is in the driver's seat, but with that comes the expectation of incoming fire. Her reputation for detail and sharp questioning in Congress could cut both ways — she's admired for precision but rumored to have a temper and staff issues that may resurface.If you ask me, I'd rather be in her shoes than anyone else's in this race. Governor Porter is no longer a long shot — she's a top contender. Sure, she's not universally loved, and her style is a sharp contrast to someone like Gavin Newsom, who leans more on charisma than policy depth. But Porter's grounded, process-oriented approach might resonate with voters ready for a different kind of leadership. It's early — but she's clearly in the lead.The Freedom Caucus ExodusChip Roy is heading home — not just to Texas, but into the state attorney general race. He's leaving behind his role in the House and with it, another domino falls in the dissolution of the Freedom Caucus. He's not alone. Byron Donalds is going for Florida governor. Barry Moore wants a Senate seat in Alabama. Ralph Norman is aiming for South Carolina's governor's mansion. The list goes on — and the pattern is clear.These were the hardliners — the names you heard when Speaker fights broke out or when high-stakes votes were in play. Now, they're moving on, seeking promotions or exits. The Freedom Caucus' influence, once loud and obstructive, is quietly fading. They all bent the knee to Trump eventually, and now it seems like they're cashing out or repositioning for relevance in state politics.In Texas, the AG job is a powerful one. Ken Paxton used it as a springboard and wielded it aggressively. If Roy wins, expect more of that hard-edged, action-first governance. But nationally, their exodus signals something more — the end of a chapter. The Freedom Caucus isn't what it was, and its main voices are scattering. Their watch has ended.Tulsi Gabbard's Deep State OverhaulTulsi Gabbard, now Director of National Intelligence, has unveiled ODNI 2.0 — a major restructuring plan that slashes staff and consolidates units focused on countering foreign influence and cyber threats. The goal is to cut $700 million annually — a bold move, but one in line with this administration's mission to slim down government operations. It's another signal that this White House doesn't operate under old assumptions.The intelligence world, long a target of Trumpian criticism, is being gutted — not just for size but for perceived bias. There's a strong undercurrent here about the so-called deep state and its relationship with the press. This move isn't just administrative — it's cultural. It's about information control. Gabbard is targeting the pipelines that leak classified narratives to shape public perception.Living in D.C., you feel the impact of this. It's a company town — when the company is laying off hundreds, the town shifts. Longer happy hours. People breaking leases. Uncertainty hanging in the air. But if you're in this administration, it's not about sympathy. It's about loyalty — or the lack thereof. And for many who see Trump as the duly elected CEO of the U.S. government, trimming the fat is justice, not politics.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:43 - Interview with Alex Isenstadt00:27:40 - Update00:28:54 - Katie Porter00:31:49 - Chip Roy00:34:28 - Gabbard Cuts00:41:23 - Interview with Evan Scrimshaw01:31:52 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Graham Plattner is running for Senate in Maine. He's not a career politician. He's not a household name. He's a newcomer, and he's coming in with the kind of video that's designed to break through the noise. It's everything you'd expect from someone trying to signal that they're different — kettlebell lifting, scuba diving, oyster farming, military gear. This is Fetterman-core, and I mean that in the pre-stroke, media-savvy, meme-friendly way. It's intentionally loud, intentionally masculine, and intentionally designed to get people talking.But this isn't just a vibe campaign. Plattner's already built a real team. He's working with the same media shop that did ads for Zohran Mamdani in New York and helped elect Fetterman in Pennsylvania. These aren't DCCC types. They're insurgent operatives with a history of getting attention — and winning. That tells me Plattner's not just here to make a point. He's running to win. And in a state like Maine, where ideological boundaries don't map neatly onto party lines, he might actually have a shot.Democratic leadership, though, has other plans. Chuck Schumer and his operation would clearly prefer Janet Mills. She's the sitting governor, she's 77 years old, and she'd walk into the race with a national fundraising network already behind her. But that's exactly the kind of candidate a guy like Plattner is built to run against. If she enters, it turns this race into a referendum on the Democratic establishment. And it gives Susan Collins exactly what she wants: two Democrats locked in a bitter primary while she gears up for a calm general election campaign.Maine is weird politically. I don't mean that as an insult — I mean it's unpredictable in a way that defies national modeling. This is a state that elects independents, splits tickets, and shrugs at coastal assumptions. A candidate like Plattner, who's running a progressive but culturally savvy campaign, could actually catch fire. He's already signaling that he's not going to run from the Second Amendment — which would make him a unicorn among progressives — and he seems to get that guns, culture, and economic populism all intersect here in a way that's not neat or clean.It's early, and most people outside the state probably haven't even heard of him. But he's getting coverage. And he's trying to frame himself as the guy who will show up everywhere — from left-wing podcasts to centrist fundraisers to gun ranges in rural districts. If he pulls it off, it won't just be a Maine story. It'll be a signal that Democrats are still capable of producing candidates who can speak across class and cultural lines without watering down the message. We'll see if he holds up under pressure.Trump, Zelensky, and the Shape of a Ukraine DealTrump's pushing a peace summit with Russia and Ukraine, and the location that's gained traction is Budapest. That's not a random choice. Budapest is where Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons in exchange for guarantees that turned out to be meaningless. Putin invaded anyway. So now, years later, trying to broker a peace deal in that same city feels almost poetic — or cynical, depending on how you look at it. Macron wants Geneva. Putin wants Moscow. Orbán, who runs Hungary, is offering Budapest as neutral turf. That offer seems to be sticking.The terms of the talks are shifting. Zelensky isn't being required to agree to a ceasefire before negotiations begin — which is a major departure from the Biden administration's stance. Trump's team seems to believe that real movement can happen only if you start talking now, without preconditions. That's risky. But it's also more flexible. The Russians are now suggesting they might accept something like NATO-style security guarantees for Ukraine — just without the name “NATO.” That's a big shift. If they're serious, it opens up a lane for something that looks like independence and protection without triggering all-out war.Zelensky, for his part, is in a bind. His approval rating has dropped. His party just lost ground. The economy is on life support. And the longer the war goes on, the harder it is to keep Ukrainians fully on board with total resistance. That's not a moral failing — it's exhaustion. What Ukraine wants now, more than anything, is certainty. If they're going to give up territory — and no one's saying that out loud, but everyone's thinking it — then they want to know they'll never have to fight this war again. That's where the Article 5-style guarantees come in.Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, is reportedly testing those waters. And Marco Rubio said the quiet part out loud — that if Ukraine can get real security commitments in exchange for ending the war, it's worth exploring. This isn't the “bleed Russia dry” strategy the Biden administration backed. That was about regime change through attrition. This is something else. It's about containment, closure, and trying to make sure the region doesn't explode again five years down the line.No one's pretending this is clean. Crimea isn't coming back. Parts of the Donbas are going to remain contested forever. But if a deal gets Ukraine real protection, even without NATO branding, and gets Russia out of the areas it's willing to surrender, that's movement. And right now, movement is the only thing that separates this from another decade of trench warfare and broken promises. Whether it holds is anyone's guess. But it's on the table now — and for the first time in a long time, that actually matters.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:42 - Maine Midterms00:18:08 - Update00:19:04 - Trilateral Meetin00:30:04 - DC Fed Takeover00:33:24 - Epstein Files00:36:00 - Interview with Alex Epstein01:34:40 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Donald Trump has laid the groundwork to become one of the wealthiest people on the planet by personally making money from every dollar printed in the United States. And the worse the economy gets, the more money he stands to make. The House has already passed three crypto bills that would make this potential a reality by allowing the Trump family to control the global stablecoin market. Now it’s up to the Senate. It’s a wild story that the media won’t report on because they don’t get it. But some very powerful people have figured it out and now the race is on to stop Trump from becoming the shadow central banker to the world.

This is our second episode covering Lyndon Johnson himself and selected parts of his own background. In today's episode (which is  part 2 of a two-part mini-series covering this event), we conclude the telling of the story of the stolen Democratic primary run off race in 1948 that occurred in Texas. The Box 13 scandal is a classic and blatant voter fraud case that propelled Lyndon Johnson ultimately to the Senate. And it revealed, on a national basis, the unbridled ambition of this man who would take outrageous and illegal actions to secure victory in the senate runoff. It was not the first time that Johnson had shown a major character flaw, but never before  had it reached this scale. And without this pivotal moment, Johnson would never have acceded ultimately to the presidency as he did. And so, the ultimate question in our quest for the truth is whether this event (along with the larger and related chain of events which came after as a result)...ultimately led to the assassination of President Kennedy. Rumors of Johnson's involvement began to swirl almost immediately after the President's assassination and there is a defined school of thought within the JFK assassination research community that staunchly believes in Johnson's involvement. His involvement  in both the assassination and its cover up. Join us in one of the most fascinating story tells of the Kennedy assassination and stick around as we will be returning to the Mexico City series right after we complete this min-series that was spawned by the recent release of the Billy Sol Estes and Cliff Carter tape that the two recorded in 1971. Folks, you just can't write this stuff. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

Send us a textMark Lynch is challenging the political establishment in a race that could dramatically reshape South Carolina's representation in Washington. A successful businessman who transformed his family enterprise from 5 employees to 110 while maintaining debt-free operations since 1999, Lynch brings a refreshing perspective to a political landscape dominated by career politicians.The conversation reveals Lynch's deeply held convictions about returning America to its constitutional foundations. Having invested $5 million of his own retirement funds into his campaign, Lynch demonstrates his commitment to remaining independent from special interests while mounting a serious challenge to Senator Lindsey Graham's long-held seat. His decision to run stems from years of community involvement and growing concern about the direction of the country.Lynch's platform centers around putting "God first," advocating for constitutional governance, eliminating what he views as unconstitutional federal agencies, implementing a biblical flat tax system, and enforcing immigration laws. His pro-life stance and emphasis on manufacturing revival resonate with conservative South Carolina voters. Internal polling suggests a promising path forward, with Lynch reporting that 57% of South Carolina voters say they'll never vote for Graham again, while 60% prefer a successful businessman.While acknowledging the challenge of running against an incumbent with President Trump's endorsement, Lynch remains confident that his business experience and America-first platform will ultimately win over South Carolina voters in the June 2026 primary. For those interested in supporting his campaign, Lynch invites listeners to visit Lynch4Senate.com to volunteer, donate, or learn more about his vision for representing South Carolina with integrity and conservative principles.

When those activity calendars get too packed it quickly becomes a second job to schedule and organize the events.

Powers speaks with Zoya Lehrer, founder and CEO of the app 'Orgo', a time management tool, who shares her inspiration for creating the app to help busy families better organize their time.

President Trump declared his Alaskan summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin "extremely productive," but says no deal or ceasefire has been reached yet. Giving few details about the tentative agreement, Trump said he first had to speak to Ukrainian President Zelenskyy and our European allies about what transpired. FOX News Radio's Eben Brown discusses the no-deal result, the Trump administration's objectives for negotiating an end to the war on Ukraine, and the challenges the President will confront in a possible second meeting with Putin. The Trump administration is cracking down on crime in the nation's capital. City leaders in Washington, D.C., filed a lawsuit Friday, ultimately challenging the administration's takeover of the Metropolitan Police Department. Republicans have praised the move, arguing that crime has gotten out of control. However, others are arguing that the city has seen record-low crime this year. Former FBI Assistant Director Chris Swecker joined the FOX News Rundown earlier this week to discuss the president's decision.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Julian Epstein, attorney, former chief counsel to the Democratic House Judiciary Committee, and NYP Columnist, joined the Guy Benson Show with guest host Harry Hurley today to discuss the lost state of the Democratic party. The pair weighed in on the radicalism of Zohran Mamdani and why the "Obama brand" suffers from his reported phone call with the radical. Epstein also weighed in on the "weak" state of Democratic leadership in the House and in the Senate, and you can listen to the full interview below! Learn more about your ad choices.

This is our first episode covering Lyndon Johnson himself and selected parts of his own background. In today's episode (which is one of 2 episodes covering this event), we begin by telling the story of the stolen Democrat primary run off race in 1948 that occurred in Texas. The Box 13 scandal is a classic and blatant voter fraud case that propelled Lyndon Johnson ultimately to the Senate. And it revealed, on a national basis, the unbridled ambition of this man who would take outrageous and illegal actions to secure victory in the senate runoff. It was not the first time that Johnson had shown a major character flaw, but never before  had it reached this scale. And without this pivotal moment, Johnson would never have acceded ultimately to the presidency as he did. And so, the ultimate question in our quest for the truth is whether this event (along with the larger and related chain of events which came after as a result)...ultimately led to the assassination of President Kennedy. Rumors of Johnson's involvement began to swirl almost immediately after the President's assassination and there is a defined school of thought within the JFK assassination research community that staunchly believes in Johnson's involvement. His involvement  in both the assassination and its cover up. Join us in one of the most fascinating story tells of the Kennedy assassination and stick around as we will be returning to the Mexico City series right after we complete this min-series that was spawned by the recent release of the Billy Sol Estes and Cliff Carter tape that the two recorded in 1971. Folks, you just can't write this stuff. Even as early as 1964, rumors and serious concerns over  the lone gunman theory and the evidence that might contravene it,  were becoming a major concern for the government and the commission. Conspiracy theories were contrary to the government's stated narrative from the very beginning. This  real-life story is more fascinating than fiction.  No matter whether you are a serious researcher or a casual student, you will enjoy the fact filled narrative and story as  we relive one of the most shocking moments in American History. An event that changed the nation and changed the world forever.

From California to New England, Texas Democrats have the entire nation focused on the Great State and President Donald Trump's push to redraw the state's congressional districts. Reporters John Moritz and Taylor Goldenstein explain where things stand and whether Democrats are succeeding in their mission. U.S. Sen. John Cornyn also joins the show, pushing back against critics who say he is becoming more MAGA just to salvage his political career. Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Colin Allred also drops by to talk about where he went wrong in his last campaign and how he'll be a different candidate this time. Finally, there's another Bush family member ready to jump on the campaign circuit. Host Jeremy Wallace breaks it all down with a little inspiration from Paul McCartney, George Strait and Randy Rogers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode, John Byrne and Elliot Berman unpack a series of significant developments in banking, compliance, and enforcement. They begin with the White House's new executive order on “Guaranteeing Fair Banking for All Americans,” which aims to prevent what some call “debanking.” While positioned as a fairness measure, John and Elliot warn that it could weaken banks' ability to make independent, risk-based decisions, potentially increasing white-collar crime exposure. They note concerns over the subjective nature of risk scoring and parallels to the 2008–2010 financial crisis. Next, they spotlight the IRS-CI “CI-FIRST” program, a collaborative effort between financial institutions and the IRS's Criminal Investigation division to improve information sharing and streamline financial record requests. The recent CI-FIRST Executive Forum in Washington is seen as a model for effective public-private partnerships in combating financial crime. The discussion then turns to enforcement actions: Paxos Trust Company will pay $26.5 million to New York regulators for failing to properly vet Binance and for systemic AML program weaknesses, alongside a $22 million investment in compliance upgrades. The DOJ issued its first corporate FCPA action since resuming enforcement, with Liberty Mutual paying $4.7 million to resolve bribery allegations involving Indian state-owned banks. Do Kwon, co-founder of Terraform Labs, pled guilty to wire fraud and conspiracy, tied to the $40 billion collapse of Terra USD and Luna, with a $19 million penalty and possible 12-year sentence. They also cover a Senate minority report critical of the administration's approach to Russian sanctions, arguing it undermines Ukraine's leverage and lacks consistent enforcement. The FACT Coalition emphasizes the need for tools like the Corporate Transparency Act to bolster sanctions' effectiveness. On the policy front, they discuss delays and staffing cuts affecting the State Department's annual human rights report and the pending trafficking in persons report—both key references for global human rights and anti-trafficking efforts.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, George and Alex Soros are relentlessly working to undermine this nation. Despite the Soros family amassing billions from this country, they choose to finance antisemitic protestors, purchase radio stations to sway public opinion, and back radical Democrats and influencers. They are now supporting protests against President Trump's crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., including a $20 million contribution to groups opposing the deployment of National Guard troops and federalization of D.C.'s police. When will the Republicans investigate the Soros family? Also, Gov Mike Dunleavy calls in to discuss the Trump/Putin meeting in Alaska this Friday. In addition, Alaska's energy resources are vital, but under the Biden and Obama administrations, the state faced restrictive federal policies. In contrast, Trump has liberated Alaska's energy sector. Later, Democrats, having lost touch with the cultural zeitgeist, are attempting to fracture the MAGA coalition built by Trump. Their strategy involves exploiting internal disagreements within MAGA, using media-driven wedge issues like foreign policy and the Epstein case to create divisions. “Some are being advanced by paid influencers and operatives, along with bot armies, to split the movement.” Afterward, Gov Greg Abbott calls in and addresses the ongoing issue of redistricting in Texas, where a special 30-day legislative session is nearing its end with less than a week remaining. Democrats in the Texas House, numbering 62 out of 150 members, left the state to block a quorum, which requires two-thirds of the House and Senate to act, preventing a vote on redistricting. Abbott expressed confidence in passing the redistricting legislation by calling consecutive special sessions if needed. Finally, Gov Ron DeSantis calls in to announce his new Lieutenant Gov Jay Collins. They discuss Florida's appeal and the need for redistricting to ensure fair representation, especially in rapidly growing areas like Tampa Bay and Sarasota. They also advocate for a census that counts only legal residents and points out California's gerrymandered district maps, which favor liberal candidates despite being drawn by an independent commission.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the deployment of National Guard troops to Washington, D.C., as Trump launches a federal crackdown on crime in the capital. They analyze the administration's show of force, the sharp pushback from Mayor Bowser, and what this unprecedented federal intervention means for local autonomy. Kander and Gupta also dive into Trump's escalating economic nationalism, from bizarre tariff proposals to his plan to take a cut of Nvidia's China sales, and the growing alarm over his appointment of a partisan loyalist to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Plus, they discuss Trump's latest mixed signals on Ukraine, the political theater surrounding the manufactured Sydney Sweeney controversy, and they are joined by Arkansas farmer Hallie Shoffner to talk about her run for U.S. Senate against Tom Cotton.

In this special edition of American Potential, guest host Daniel Garza sits down with U.S. Senator Rick Scott for an inspiring and candid conversation recorded during LIBRE's fly-in. Senator Scott shares his personal journey from growing up in public housing to building the largest hospital company in the nation, serving as Florida's two-term governor, and now representing the state in the U.S. Senate. They discuss the economic turnaround Scott led in Florida—reversing job losses, slashing fees, and creating a pro-business environment where entrepreneurs can thrive. He talks about why small businesses are the backbone of the economy, how balancing budgets unleashes opportunity, and why unchecked federal spending threatens America's future. Scott also reflects on the values that shaped him—faith, hard work, and personal responsibility—and why he believes those same principles drive the aspirations of Latino families across the country. This episode is a call to action for every American to protect opportunity, stay engaged, and help keep the American Dream alive.

Provision 453 of the current House Appropriations bill for FY 2026 will create, in effect, a kind of liability shield for pesticide companies, protecting them from lawsuits. This means that if you are made sick by their products you will have no real legal recourse, even though scientific evidence points to the harm caused by their products. Today, molecular toxicologist Dr. Alexandra Muñoz helps us examine this particular provision that is in front of U.S. lawmakers right now. We invite you to learn more about what's at stake, the ramifications of this bill's passage, and to act swiftly to communicate to U.S. representatives in the House and Senate that we do NOT want this bill passed with this provision.

Hillsdale College Radio General Manager and Radio Free Hillsdale Hour host Scot Bertram fills in for Jim on Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Scot and Greg as they cover the political comeback of former Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown, furious left-wing reactions to President Trump federalizing the D.C. police, a new poll exposing a sharp partisan divide over pride in America, and troubling consequences from legalizing marijuana.First, after a quick discussion about Sherrod Brown running for U.S. Senate again, they highlight former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi blaming Pres. Trump for not activating the National Guard before the January 6th riots, the former U.S. Capitol Police Chief slams Pelosi for denying his request for National Guard forces leading up to that day. They also rip Peter Baker of the New York Times for claiming DC has a "non-existent crime crisis."Next, they examine a Cygnal poll revealing that 63 percent of Americans believe the nation is worth celebrating as it nears its 250th birthday. But the numbers split sharply along party lines. 89 percent of Republicans agree, compared to just 37 percent of Democrats. Scot and Greg try to explain why the difference is so stark.Finally, they groan over the menace that legalized marijuana is to our society. A New York Times report reveals that weed gummies are sending thousands of small kids going to the hospital.

Steve contrasts President Trump's move to federalize Washington, D.C., with former Texas gubernatorial and Senate candidate Beto O'Rourke's assertion over the weekend that Democrats need to "F**k the rules" when it comes to congressional redistricting and says it's a perfect illustration of the broken social compact. Bob Vander Plaats from the Family Leader joins the show to discuss activist Chris Rufo's social media question about the lack of evangelical impact on elite discourse. In Hour Two, the team takes Iowa gubernatorial candidate Brad Sherman's "Freedom Quiz." Finally, author and pastor Virgil Walker joins the show to talk about his new Substack article, "A Letter to the Sons We Never Made."

Delays in PJM's interconnection queue have stalled 143 gigawatts of new projects (mostly renewables like solar and wind), creating a bottleneck.  Reliance on natural gas, which can be expensive and unreliable during extreme weather, has also driven up costs. Offshore wind projects, part of the state's clean energy push, have faced setbacks and higher costs, contributing to the supply-demand mismatch. Political and Policy Context Governor Phil Murphy's administration has pursued aggressive clean energy goals (e.g., 100% clean energy by 2035, EV mandates), which supporters say are necessary for long-term sustainability but critics blame for closing plants and inflating costs without adequate backups. In response, the state offered relief like $100-200 credits per household and deferred some costs.    https://twitter.com/KobeissiLetter/status/1954841769272541503     Fed structure may be in flux, not just rates For one, Miran, who has written about re-ordering the Fed voting system and appointment process and binding the central bank more closely to government thinking, still has to be confirmed by the Senate. While that process may be expedited, because he was already confirmed as a White House official, he would ostensibly only hold the post until Kugler's term formally ends in January. He would also only get one vote under the current system, and Trump has yet to name his pick to replace Chair Jerome Powell next May. But most Fed watchers think Miran is likely to be confirmed for the full board term eventually, even if he's not considered a candidate for the top job. For some critics, Trump's dramatic embrace of digital assets, crypto tokens and stablecoins is already an indication of a very real direction of travel that could transform the monetary world and banking system.

It's a Monday Fun Day on the Majority Report where the fun is rare, but you can't deny it is Monday.  We open with a good news - bad news situation. The good news is violent crime in Washington DC has a hit a 30-year low. Bad news is Trump is declaring DC under federal control and deploying the National Guard. We are joined by Palestinian-Canadian emergency room physician, Dr. Tarek Loubani who is currently volunteering at Nasser hospital in Gaza. It's a harrowing interview but we must bear witness to the terror our tax dollars are funding. Check out Emma's interview with Dr. Loubani from last year. In the Fun Half: Pete Buttigieg uses his signature brand of meaningless corporate consultant talk to the topic of Israel on Pod Save America. Rep Bryan Steil (R-WI) gets heckled out of the building during his town hall. Israel assassinated 5 more journalists, never in history have we seen a country target the press like this. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver did a segment on Chuck Schumer's imaginary best friends, "The Baileys". Maybe one of the LWT writers are MR fans? Patrick Bet-David uses every ounce of his very limited broadcasting ability to spin a report that shows how monumentally unpopular Elon Musk and Donald Trump are. ICE and CBP claim being brown qualifies as reasonable suspicion and GOP Latinos are starting to feel the pressure that they voted for. All that and more plus phone calls and IMs The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. You can use this number to connect with either the U.S. Senate or the House of Representatives.
