MUST-SEE: AOC Has a Mental Breakdown After Bobulinski Runs Circles Around Her

Democrats never want to live by their own rules, and that's why it's so important to make them do so when given the opportunity.

It was popcorn time on Capitol Hill Wednesday as Hunter Biden’s former business partner Tony Bobulinski testified in front of the House Oversight Committee—and came loaded for bear.

Ayanna Pressley Lets Mask Slip After Ron DeSantis Floats Sending Haitian Refugees to Martha's Vineyard

As far as I'm concerned, giving people false hope is one of the least compassionate, most exploitative things someone can do, and that is exactly what Ayanna Pressley and her radical open borders ilk are doing every time they open their mouths on this topic.

WHAT'S ON TAP?

Today on Capitol Hill...

It's not likely that Thursday will be quite as eventful as Bobulinski Wednesday was on Capitol Hill, but there are still multiple hearings set. Here's a sampling:

• House Science, Space, and Technology — Advancing Scientific Discovery: Assessing the Status of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate
• House Financial Services — Importing Global Governance: Examining the Dangers of Ceding Authority Over American Financial Regulation
• House Oversight and Accountability — White House Overreach on AI
• House Armed Services — US Military Posture and National Security Challenges in the Greater Middle East and Africa
• Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation — Hearings to examine spectrum and national security
• House Committee on House Administration — Safety on Capitol Hill: DC Crime's Impact on Congressional Operations and Visitors
• House Foreign Affairs — Commerce as Statecraft: Better Leveraging U.S. Business to Advance our Economic and National Security Goals in the Indo-Pacific
• House Foreign Affairs — Assessing State Department Compliance with Oversight

MORNING MUSING

Happy 18th Birthday to X (f/k/a Twitter)! That's right, the revolutionary social media behemoth was founded on March 21, 2006. There's no way to quantify the impact it's had on our world, but I know it played a not-insignificant role in how I wound up here, writing this missive. So that's fun.
