Mike Johnson put on his theologian hat and broke down scripture for the Vicar of Christ. So you want me to give you a theological dissertation? All right. I tell you what. I'll post it on my website later today, but let me give you a quick summary," Johnson responded before launching into a soliloquy insisting that the Bible says "assimilation is expected and anticipated and proper." "When someone comes into your country, comes into your nation, they do not have the right to change its laws or to change a society. They're expected to assimilate. We haven't had a lot of that going on," he said.


Republicans are in full-out panic mode over their plunging support with Hispanic voters after losing a special election in a ruby-red Texas district over the weekend. On Saturday, a Democrat posted a 14-point victory in a Fort Worth-based state senate district President Donald Trump had won by 17 points in 2024, a staggering swing that was powered by significant shifts across the district's Hispanic areas. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) told reporters Tuesday that the election was a "very concerning outcome." Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick posted on X that the results should be a "wake-up call for Republicans across Texas. Our voters cannot take anything for granted." Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said "a swing of this magnitude is not something that can be dismissed."


A Justice Department lawyer seemed fed up with her line of work when she had meltdown during a court hearing about ICE's conduct. On Tuesday, DOJ attorney Julie Le took part in a federal hearing about ICE's immigration enforcement in Minnesota. At one point during the session, Judge Jerry Blackwell pressed Le on the agency repeatedly ignoring court orders. In response, Le appeared to have a sudden stream of consciousness " according to an account from local Fox 9 reporter Paul Blume, who detailed the bizarre moment: "SHOCKING FEDERAL COURT MOMENT: DOJ attorney Julie Le, The system sucks, this job sucks' to Judge Jerry Blackwell who pressed her on why so many court orders are being ignored by ICE/Trump admin. She asked to be held in contempt just so she could get 24 hours of sleep."
