Republicans slam DeSantis for calling war in Ukraine "a territorial dispute"

Republicans make fatal mistake amid impending Trump indictment
No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen. What a dumb move...

🚨 Brian Tyler Cohen launched a Spanish YouTube channel!

Trump accuses Manhattan district attorney of criminal "interference in a presidential election"
While the disgraced ex-president should be an expert in spotting criminal election interference, having conducted and benefited from various schemes and meddling efforts himself over the years, he is sorely mistaken here. Manhattan District Attorney Bragg is simply doing his job — investigating Trump's $130,000 hush-money payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels to keep their greasy affair private.

Mike Pence downplays Trump protest threats, says people have right to assemble
Having learned apparently nothing from his own brush with deadly violence at the hands of a rabid MAGA mob during Trump's failed insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, Pence naively downplayed concerns of renewed violence following the disgraced ex-president's ominous call for his followers to "TAKE OUR NATION BACK!" waxing philosophical about Americans' "constitutional right to peaceably assemble." Peaceably, huh. How'd that work out for you last time, Mike?

Rightwing conspiracy theorist and sentient neck vein Alex Jones appears to be moving large sums of money to friends and family in a craven attempt to avoid paying out nearly $1.5 billion in damages to the families of the victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school shooting, whom he tormented with disgusting false flag lies for years.

A big-business conservative lackey could be elected mayor of a Democratic union city!
Brandon Johnson for Mayor: Paul Vallas has spent his entire career fighting to destroy public education and undermine workers' rights while cozying up to DeSantis supporters and anti-LGBTQ groups — while Brandon Johnson is building a people-powered, union-backed progressive campaign to become Chicago's next mayor and put an end to the cycle of crony capitalism, austerity and missed opportunities. Can you chip in to help Brandon Johnson defeat Vallas and keep our unions safe?

With assistance from 20-year-old co-defendant Gisela Castro Medina, Lazzaro recruited and plied petite, vulnerable teenage girls with cash, liquor, and gifts before sexually assaulting them.

New law allows anti-abortion monument at Arkansas Capitol
Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders has signed a ridiculous new law that will allow a privately funded "monument to the unborn" near the state Capitol, marking the number of abortions performed in Arkansas before the Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade last summer. Good to know the ex-press secretary and peddler of myriad Trump lies is tackling Arkansas' most pressing issues from her new perch in the governor's mansion in Little Rock.

Elizabeth Warren demands probe into bank failures, urges Biden to fire Fed Chair Jerome Powell
Sen. Warren called on federal officials to investigate the causes of recent bank failures and urged President Biden to fire Trump-appointed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, whom she has criticized for intensifying financial deregulation and imposing job- and wage-destroying interest rate hikes. "My views on Jay Powell are well-known at this point. He has had two jobs. One is to deal with monetary policy, one is to deal with regulation. He has failed at both."
