The average person is more likely to be struck by lightning than they are to commit voter fraud. Seriously. That's a real stat. I'm voting NO on the SAVE America Act.

@conorsen Let’s call it a tin-foil lining maybe?

Supply chain shocks are bad but the silver lining is they mean a lot of great Odd Lots episodes.

Trump: “Larry, it looks like Netflix is gonna get Warner Bros., but if you really really want it, Larry, I’ll make sure you get it.” If the president really said this — as alleged — it’s smoking-gun corruption. And possible cause for a criminal probe.

NEW REPORTING: Trump Administration's attempt to resuscitate criminal case against James Comey is languishing -- and risks stalling out @macfarlanenews/note/p-191427019?utm_source=notes-share-action&r=69xcje" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@macfarlanenew…

ICE detain 7 year old girl from Canada—who suffers from severe autism. She's traumatized in loud & overcrowded cell—no reason she can't be at home with her legal stepfather. "They are being unlawfully detained," he said. "My wife and daughter's papers are good and up to date." He provided his wife's social security documentation—that prove she is a lawful alien with a right to work in the U.S. Mother and child are currently locked up at the Ursula ICE detention center in McAllen, Texas—notorious for having child "cages."

After Tom Homan came to the Senate to meet with key appropriators amid standoff over ICE and DHS shutdown, Sen. Patty Murray — top Dem on Appropriations — told us: “I’m glad that the White House was here, but we are a long ways way.”

BREAKING: I just signed the bill to extend postpartum coverage for Wisconsin moms from a lousy 60 days to one full year after giving birth. I promised I'd never stop fighting to make sure moms and babies had the postpartum care they need, and today, I delivered on that promise.

AP confirming our story 👍

"Some of these Americans are in their early or mid 20s, and we give them the gift of this incredible responsibility, hundreds of thousands of pounds of aircraft," Chairman of Joint Chiefs Dan Caine says of B-1 and B-52 bomber crews. "Their mission actually begins the day prior, when they're given a target, or a bunch of targets, and they begin to study those targets--looking at what are the effects required, what are the weapons required to get there, how will we program these weapons, what is the weather, what is the tanker flow? "It's an incredibly complex problem that we give each and every one of these crews, and they work it over the period of 24 hours prior, get some rest, and then step out the door to go fly. "The last thing they do is they check all of their equipment -- their oxygen mask, survival gear. "They crank the jets about an hour prior to take off and then launch into the daylight, doing their pre-flight checks. And as the kids say, lock in and prepare to go to war, sometimes on a long and stressful journey."

The President of the United States said I insulted Jesus. You want to know what insults Jesus? Kicking the sick off their healthcare. Bombing schoolchildren in Iran. Deporting moms and babies. Covering up the Epstein files.

So interesting how stuff the defense press has been reporting on in great detail for years, some of us outright and repeatedly warning about glaring gas and issues for a decade or more, are packaged into posts for big outlets years later once the problem has totally metastasized. I think stories on these issues are great to do by all, even the MSM hitting it much later, it's just weird because it is the farthest thing from new, but usually these stories are written as if the writers broke a big story. It's wild to see how the whole process has become inverted, with the big guys being last, not first. (This is not directly about Gregg's story here, just an example of new story from a larger outlet on one of these issues)

Scoop: House GOP leaders are weighing putting a clean FISA extension on the floor via suspension next week - given the opposition from GOP hardliners to extend warrantless government surveillance powers Leaders also have no plans to attach anything to FISA - including the SAVE America Act. rule is still more likely - but hardliners are warning in public and private a rule for a clean FISA extension will not pass. Several also raised concerns during a classified briefing this afternoon. “Warrants or bust,” Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) told us, adding that a clean extension “will not pass.” Johnson, asked if FISA could be a suspension vote next week, told @politico tonight leaders were talking about it. "I think I can pass the rule," he added. Dem leadership is also deeply skeptical there'd be enough votes for suspension without major concessions from Republicans. w/ @Reporter_Mia politi.co/4783V6r via @politico

Talking Filibuster Day 3 on the SAVE America Act

Just a partial list of the amendments submitted by Senate Democrats to the SAVE America Act. After 3 days, the Senate has not voted on any amendments or motions to the bill.

Same attempted shootdown video shows how bright the engine gets when the fighter goes to afterburner.

There is a lot of discussion surrounding the supposed F-35 video today picking up the same level of brightness from the airframe as the exhaust. Wanted to compare with some old attempted shootdown video screenshots from the Houthis using Iranian-provided equipment.

WHOA. Lewandowski is accused of demanding fees from a private prison company to steer them ICE contracts, at a time when he was widely known to be running DHS on Kristi Noem's behalf. Congress should conduct a full and bipartisan investigation into this.
