Houlahan to Hegseth: "In your opening remarks, you reserved more words and more vitriol to condemn Democrats than you did for Xi and Putin combined. It's pretty telling to me that you decided to use your time for that."

Use one word to describe Erika Kirk.

Erika Kirk addresses the nation about the danger of political violence and says the United States has now become unrecognizable because of radicalized liberals. She explains she went to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner to confront the journalists who have dehumanized her and put her at risk. “They motivated the murder of my husband.” “They’ve continuously tried to assassinate the President.”

FBI Director Kash Patel explains how the criminal investigation into James Comey’s seashell post wasn’t a simple one: This has been a case that's been investigated over the past 9, 10, 11 months. These cases take time. Our investigators work methodically

Trump's numbers on inflation aren't just the worst for him ever. They're the worst I've seen for any president. They're worse than Biden's worst & worse than Carter's pre-1980 election. On the cost of living, just 9% of indies & 39% (!) of the GOP say we're on the right track.

Hegseth sounds like an unhinged zealot every time he opens his mouth. Even with the sound off so you can't hear his ridiculous tirade, he looks completely insane.

🚨HOLY SHIT: Rep. John Garamendi OBLITERATES Pete Hegseth and calls him a liar right to his face: “You have been lying to the American public about this war from day one.” His entire remarks are 🔥 “This war of choice is a political and economic disaster at every level. …the strategy has been an outstanding example of INCOMPETENCE. …Despite the President's promise to lower the cost of living, gas prices are up 40% and inflation is soaring. So much for lowering the cost of living. The President has got himself and America stuck in the quagmire of another war in the Middle East. He's desperately trying to extricate himself from his own mistakes.” THIS IS HOW IT’S DONE! DAMN!!!
