This is not normal. The Administration's arrest of a sitting judge in Wisconsin is a drastic move that threatens the rule of law. While we don’t have all the details, this is a grave step and undermines our system of checks and balances.

For the first time in history, the NCAA women's basketball title game drew more viewers than the men's.

Xcel Energy says this incident had nothing to do with closure of Sherco Unit 2: "We had a wire fail on the Sauk Rapids side of the feeder line. After we made that repair, the substation breaker tripped, which caused a second outage. Our technical team is investigating..."

Nearly 73,000 Americans died from fentanyl last year—some of them were teenagers who unknowingly bought laced pills on social media. That’s why I am insisting that any border funding include state-of-the-art technology to detect fentanyl and why I’m part of a bipartisan effort to take on this threat. startribune.com/if-youre-not-r…

BREAKING: Republican 2024 presidential candidate Nikki Haley is humiliated on live national television as Meet the Press host Kristen Welker calls her out on a whopping lie about Pres. Biden and the attacks by Hammas against Israel. It all started when Welker asked Hailey if she thinks that it is “irresponsible” for her Republican 2024 presidential rivals to falsely accuse Biden of having used “$6 billion” U.S. taxpayer dollars to “fund” the Hammas attacks “without any evidence or proof.” Haley responding by shamelessly claiming that the money, which hasn’t even been spent yet and can ONLY be spent on humanitarian aid and food, is “spreading terrorism” and is being “moved around as we speak.” At this point, host Kristen Welker didn’t let her get away from her dangerous lie, cutting her off and putting her own notice that “there's just no proof of that,” and that her fellow Republican press it all candidates and members of Congress started pushing that false attack against President Biden “just hours after that the attacks.” Then, Welker pressed on, asking Hailey again, “Is it irresponsible to level that charge when you really don't have any evidence of that at this point in time?" At thins point, Haley had no choice but to point to “evidence” that has nothing to do with yesterday’s attacks, mumbljj I’mg about “what the Iranian” people have done to “freedom-loving people all over the world.” Luckily, Welker didn’t let get her away with this, again making it clear to the live viewers that even the Secretary of State came out and said that there is “no link” between the money that was freed by the Biden Administration and green-lighted under the Trump Administration had anything to do with the attacks — and is still sitting in a bank account in Qatar. Well done, Kristen Welker!👏👏👏 Please retweet and hit the ❤️ to thank NBC host Kristen Welker for setting Nikki Haley straight on live national television — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a woke new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: tribel.app.link/okwPIHYCIqb

@porter_dh That’s funny

one cool part about accepting that politicians aren’t your friends is, then you don’t have to get mad every time they do something self aggrandizing or duplicitous or just plain dumb. because you already knew the deal
