The House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed a bill on Wednesday that could ban TikTok in the United States. The vote came with President Joe Biden’s support, amid a warning from his administration that China had used the popular social media platform to try to influence the 2022 midterm elections — and could do so again in this year’s contests.
The bill, which must still pass the Senate, would force TikTok’s China-based parent company ByteDance to sell the app within 165 days, or face a ban in the U.S. Several Democratic lawmakers,...

Chaos erupted at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday as a pro-Trump mob stormed the seat of the country’s legislative branch in a violent scene that was reminiscent of an attempted coup or an insurrection.
Lawmakers were evacuated as the rioters breached barricades, interrupting the certification of the results of the recent presidential election. Thousands of rioters, waving “Don’t Tread on Me” flags and shouting “stop the steal,” flooded Capitol Hill and paraded through National Statuary Hall, creating a tense standoff with law enforcement that dissolved into violence. Tear gas was reportedly deployed in the rotunda and shots were fired.
CNN reported that a woman was in critical condition after being shot in the chest on the Capitol grounds. Multiple outlets later reported that she had died. Several others, including a police officer, were injured.

Though Joe Biden is polling well against the still-growing field of Democratic primary contenders, a storm is brewing over the former vice president’s potential 2020 candidacy. Last week, former Nevada state assemblywoman Lucy Flores recalled in a piece for New York magazine an incident in which the infamously handsy Biden approached her from behind, smelled her hair and kissed her on the back of her head. On Monday, a second woman, Amy Lappos, came forward, writing on Facebook that Biden “did something similar” to her while she was a congressional aide for Rep.

Back in 2014, when former Nevada state assemblywoman Lucy Flores was campaigning for lieutenant governor, she got a bit of good news: Vice President Joe Biden was interested in joining her on the trail. But her initial optimism over Biden’s appearance at a rally in Las Vegas curdled upon his arrival. Flores recently recalled in a piece for New York that Biden approached her from behind, smelling her hair before planting a “big slow kiss” on the back of her head.

President Donald Trump’s firing of FBI Director James Comey triggered an FBI investigation as agents feared the president was working on behalf of the Russian government, the New York Times reported late Friday, citing law enforcement and others familiar with the investigation.
This new reporting reveals that the investigation into Trump was much bigger than we knew and that it was two-pronged, with both counterintelligence and criminal components. The counterintelligence part was concerned with whether Trump, knowingly or unknowingly, was working as an agent of the Russian government against American interests.

Yesterday I was saying “Jim Himes” for President. Remember? It was because Himes made a gutsy speech that effectively accused Donald Trump of malicious ties to Russia. But what went down today on the House Floor was legendary. My new “for president” guy has to be John Lewis. Rep. John Lewis (D-ga) delivered an impassioned speech from the House floor. While Lewis is known for his passionate delivery, he went absolutely bananas with this shout-filled address. Watch this John Lewis is shouting on the House floor: I'll “fight every day…I oppose this bill with every breath and every bone in

Jim Himes for President? I’m making the call right now. Jim Himes for President. I tend to stay away from too many politically centered posts on here but at the same time when I see a video like I just saw I have to bring it up. We all know about the odd connection and links between Donald Trump, his administration, and Russia. The extent to these connections is something I fear we’ll never get to the bottom of and this Presidency will just run for the next 4 years doing whatever it wants. About the only people who supremely
