It's bad enough that our sitting president sits up in either the Oval Office or in some golf cart somewhere, posting racist and/or Democrat-hating AI-generated videos during a time that would be better spent - oh, I don't know - running a country that is currently operating without a funded federal government. But, since Trump has been back in office, the social media feeds the White House and other federal agencies have also become little more than government-run 4chan threads for MAGA rubes who communicate their political ideologies through memes because they don't read books.

The Department of Homeland Security entered into a contract to purchase two US-made Gulfstream G700s for $172 million on Friday, The New York Times reported. Thetaxpayer-fundedplanes will be used by Noem, as well as other high-ranking DHS personnel, said a release put out by the Coast Guard, which is part of DHS. They're replacing decades-old planes that "experienced 30 days of unplanned maintenance, with six missions requiring unplanned cancellation," the release said.

Authorities are on the scene of a fatal shooting at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in Dallas. In a post on X, Kristi Noem, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, said, "Details are still emerging but we can confirm there were multiple injuries and fatalities. The shooter is deceased by a self-inflicted gun shot wound." Noem said a motive is not known and that "ICE law enforcement is facing unprecedented violence against them."

Yesterday afternoon, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) posted a piece of disgusting propaganda that glorifies the concept of a militarized police state forcefully entering people's homes and businesses and leading them away in handcuffs and zip ties - all set to the classic Pokémon theme song and using numerous pieces of obviously copyrighted imagery from the '90s TV show.

In March 2021, a 25-year-old US citizen was traveling through Chicago's Midway airport when they were stopped by US border patrol agents. Though charged with no crime, the 25-year-old was subjected to a cheek swab to collect their DNA, which was sent to the FBI, according to a new report. The unnamed citizen was later admitted into the country. Their DNA was added to the FBI's database of genetic material despite the lack of criminal charges.

Honey is a protege of Cleta Mitchell, a lawyer who tried to help Trump overturn the 2020 election results. In 2024, ProPublica reported that Honey had played a key role in Mitchell's behind-the-scenes effort to change Georgia's election rules to allow Republican officials to contest a potential Trump loss in that year's presidential race. Honey also promoted election conspiracy theories, including one Trump cited in a speech to his followers before they stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

Known as SGEs, special government employees are limited to 130 days per year of unpaid work. Like recent SGE Elon Musk, they can be in senior positions and still have private employment and clients, unlike typical government workers at departments that handle hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts.

The July 23 premiere of Season 27 skewered Trump's extractive legal battles with the media and other institutions, his long entanglement in the Jeffrey Epstein saga, and, well, his manhood.

The 1873 painting by John Gast shows a group of white pioneers traveling west, forcing a group of Indigenous people out of frame.

"FEMA grants remain governed by existing law and policy and not political litmus tests. DHS will enforce all anti-discrimination laws and policies, including as it relates to the BDS movement, which is expressly grounded in antisemitism."
