"Underage girls testing positive for pregnancy at detention centers."
Let me fix that for you.
“ICE officers are raping little girls in detention centers.”
There you go.
WHAT THE HELL.
Tim Scott stood on a stage in South Carolina and claimed, with zero evidence, that Abdul El-Sayed's mother was "part of the funding apparatus for Osama bin Laden."
Out of nowhere. About a Senate candidate in Michigan.
This is insane.
Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia.
I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.
2 problems I noticed when voting in Florida yesterday. Why aren’t republicans concerned?:
1 - They require you to sign your signature with your finger on a tablet. That signature can be used to throw out your vote if it doesn’t match the signature they have on file, which you signed with a pen.
2 - They require you to vote via paper ballot, using a pencil to fill in the bubble next to your choice. You then run your ballot through a machine that counts the votes, but you don’t get to see if the machine read your choices correctly.
Shouldn’t republicans who care about “election security” be concerned with this?
Finally looks like we may be getting somewhere with STANDING CHARGES
@andyburnham at #PMQs just now
"“I can tell the House today that I have asked the chancellor and the energy secretary to look at whether we can remove standing charges from gas bills and to report back to this House at the earliest opportunity.”

@Britain_People@Helen_Whately@KemiBadenoch That much in expenses in 10 years when front line emergency service workers would not earn 1 million pounds in 30 years service shows out of whack things are
🔴@Helen_Whately, Shadow Secretary of State for Work & Pensions, has claimed £2 MILLION expenses in 10 years.
£300,000 relates to her own travel and accommodation - yet she only lives 50 miles from London.
Her boss, @KemiBadenoch has 3 children, claims £2.7K per month to rent a 6 bed farmhouse & tried to claim expenses for a family holiday.
The country cant afford these @Conservatives.

These are the statues of Qin Hui, a notoriously corrupt 12th-century Chinese official, and his wife Wang, kneeling forever in apology. For centuries, people have spat on, cursed, and slapped the statues to show lasting contempt.
