If Ogles' name sounds familiar, it may be because he was in hot water with investigators for having holes in his personal story.

"In particular, the stories Ogles told during his winning 2022 campaign about his personal and campaign finances." https://t.co/y4ZxFDgodD

Here is one Democrat already saying the very easy and obvious thing to say in response to comments like Ogles'

[Jennifer Bendery @jbendery]

Ogles' comments are as brazenly Islamophobic as it gets.

And yet, if past is precedent, House Republican leaders will say or do absolutely nothing about this.

I asked Mike Johnson's office for comment. So far, nada.

@NancyLeeGrahn We have never met but after 30 yrs...I applaud you & admire your conviction. Vaccines, gun control, and respected classes by civil rights laws all make a better community. Continual lust to preach hate, racism, bigotry and defense of sex trafficking is on the nose

[Justin Wolfers @JustinWolfers]

They're now saying it out loud: The Administration's goal is to undo the political independence that Congress granted the Fed, so that the President can directly set rates.

Trump -- a twice-impeached convicted felon who incited an insurrection and was found liable for sexual abuse by a jury -- is currently fundraising by saying he wants to get into heaven.

@AubryKWDSU @wdsu A few questions- where can we find local water readings & are they watching water? Where us Landry or Merrill- More absent then Latoya? Where can we make local donations for those effected? Who owns Smittys & where is the owner? Hiding like nursing home millionaire?

Donald Trump in August 2016:
“I love golf, but if I were in the White House, I don’t think I’d ever see Turnberry again.”

President Trump just said Hamas has been stealing food in Gaza from civilians.

But, an internal U.S. government analysis found no evidence of systematic theft by Hamas of U.S.-funded humanitarian supplies. https://t.co/phE8uvCsYR

And, the Israeli military has not found proof that Hamas had systematically stolen aid from the United Nations.

[Louisiana Democrats @LaDemos]

Louisiana’s minimum wage: $7.25
Poverty wage: $7.52

Mike Johnson and Jeff Landry are fine keeping you below the poverty line while their donors get richer. #LaDemos

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

The floods ripped through Texas on July 4.

On July 5, FEMA received 3000 calls from survivors. 1% were unanswered.

That night, Trump/Noem fired the people who answer the calls.

On July 6, FEMA received 2,363 calls. 65% unanswered.

July 7: 85%.

Sick. https://t.co/UHQiVOSL0z

[Chris D. Jackson @ChrisDJackson]

I hate to say it, but something’s not adding up.

ADP said we lost 33,000 jobs in June. Trump’s Labor Dept claimed we gained over 100,000. That’s not a small miss—it’s a red flag and it's happened multiple times already since he took over.

When someone lies about $2 gas and everything else, why would we blindly trust their jobs report? At some point, you have to ask: are they cooking the books? They have earned the scrutiny.

@ByPiperHutch @LAGovJeffLandry Is it bring your own tin foil hat or will they be supplying them complete w trackers?

[Julia Ioffe @juliaioffe]

So for those of you keeping track:
• Trump says he will end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. Putin tells him to pound sand. War is now worse than ever.
• Trump says he’ll solve the Gaza war. That war is now worse than ever.
• Trump tells Bibi not to strike Iran to give him space to negotiate. Bibi strikes Iran two days before talks.
Does it seem like world leaders respect Trump?

Mentioned on a couple pods that this rumor was going around. Insane fasci behavior

Here's who voted to remove confidentiality for tips to the ethics board about people breaking ethics laws.

The state representative bringing the bill was fined by the ethics board in 2023. #lalege https://t.co/5XPr9NUd2U

[derek guy @dieworkwear]

Hi Anthony! I agree, we should support US manufacturing jobs. I see you're the CEO of Sticker Mule and your $20 t-shirts are made in Nicaragua. As you know, cheap imports make it hard for US factories. Would you be interested in supporting US manufacturers? I can help for a fee.

[Rep. Lauren Underwood @RepUnderwood]

My committee just received a last-minute addition to the Coast Guard’s spend plan: $50 million for a new Gulfstream 5 jet for DHS Secretary Kristi Noem’s personal use. She already has a Gulfstream 5, by the way, but she wants a new one paid for with your taxpayer dollars.

We should be investing in our national security and improving the lives of our Coasties – not wasting taxpayer dollars on luxury travel and political stunts.

I'm demanding answers. LIVE now: https://t.co/6Mkj8YaROz
