@JamesTate121@pamMOvotes He voted in Florida! Yeah, he lives in Florida. You live where you vote. Weird thing is, we have both senate &governor positions open for running. Why not just run here in Florida?🤷🏻♀️
In his defense Tuberville is willfully ignorant of politics & law. He may not know ANY of this.
Meet MAGAt and J6 insurrectionist Elias Irizarry who was a 19-year-old student at The Citadel when he stormed the Capitol during J6 riots. He is currently an employee receiving a federal salary at the Department of Justice. @dojphofficial
He pleaded guilty to a federal misdemeanor for entering the restricted Capitol building and served a 14-day jail sentence.
Trump appointed him as a political staffer at the DOJ, with the administration defending him as a "qualified, patriotic young professional.
@commons96055467 Does tRump know he was grifting? Did he give a cut to the House? Biggest crime in tRump World is NOT the grift. It’s not cutting the House in for their due. Why Noem lost her job. tRump found out in hearing she &Lewandowski were grifting for millions &giving him too small a cut.
@Cathy2NotToday Problem with Florida is not the local laws. I like being able to speak directly to my Commissioner about things in my county &neighborhood. The problem with Florida is at state level. Laws &policies out of Tallahassee are making Florida unaffordable &impossible to make a living.
@OlenaRohoza Omg as if Zelenskyy cares. He just wants Russia to stop bombing his buildings, churches and ppl AND stay the hell off of his land. Poland can keep their dumbass award. Help Ukraine fight or get TF out of the way. #slavaUkraine
Ivanka was only 12 years old. Two years later, Trump sent her to model for his and Paolo Zampolli’s friend, John Casablancas at the tender age of 14. Trump settled with a woman he assaulted in, then 12yo Ivanka’s bedroom. Are you done yet?
@NiallHarbison@DianneCallaha16 If you discover she can only sit around and not walk, let me know. Sitting around and eating is all we do at my house! She’ll fit right in.
he “Save Our Bacon Act” isn’t about food security, it’s about wiping out hard‑won state laws that ban the sale of pork, eggs, and veal from animals kept in tiny metal cages and crates so small they can’t even turn around. Fifteen states — red, blue, and purple — have passed laws to stop the worst factory farm abuses, like gestation crates for mother pigs, battery cages for hens, and veal crates for calves, and this one rider would nullify hundreds of those protections in one fell swoop. Voters approved measures like California’s Prop 12 and Massachusetts’ Question 3 because they were sick of animals being warehoused in cages and crates, and courts have upheld those laws — but Congress is now trying to do for Big Ag what it couldn’t do itself at the ballot box or in court.
Let’s be clear: this is a blatant power grab for corporate pork giants and the agribusiness lobby, not “help” for family farmers. Small and mid‑size farmers who actually give a damn have already spent time and money to comply with these humane standards, building systems that let animals move, lie down, and turn around. The ones demanding this federal override are the factory farms that chose not to modernize, because it’s cheaper to pack animals shoulder‑to‑shoulder in crates than to treat them like living beings or protect consumers from disease.
What this bill really protects is cruelty and filth. On industrial operations, pregnant sows are locked in “gestation crates” — metal stalls so narrow they can’t turn around or walk, forced to stand or lie in one position, surrounded by their own waste. This extreme confinement causes injuries, chronic stress, and illness, and it creates exactly the kind of dirty, crowded conditions where disease and antibiotic‑resistant bacteria thrive. Research on swine farms has found manure and farm environments loaded with diverse antibiotic resistance genes at levels far higher than in human sewage or soil, which can spread into water, crops, and the broader environment. What happens in those barns does not “stay on the farm” — it comes back to us through the food system, our water, and our communities.
My friend Jamie Raskin is one of the most careful and principled people in Congress. So when he says the director of the FBI may be running a taxpayer funded slush fund, I pay attention.
Here is what he found.
Kash Patel directed more than $1 million in bonus payments to a small circle of agents in his inner circle and on his security detail.
Some were getting nearly $8,000 every two weeks on top of salaries that were already maxed out at the federal ceiling. A number of them collected close to $40,000 over consecutive pay periods.
The payments came so fast that the FBI’s bonus reserve accounts ran dry and some checks bounced.
So who got the money?
Agents on Patel’s so-called "director’s advisory team."
That is the unit created in 2025 and described internally as a payback squad, built to dig up dirt on the law enforcement officials who investigated Trump and his allies.
Raskin has given Patel until June 29 to account for every payment, every recipient, and any internal review of whether this was even legal.
Patel should answer for all of it.
