Robert Reich: "DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate -- and violated

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

Trump is stark raving mad: β€œSpain has been terrible. In fact, I told Scott Bessent to cut off all dealings with Spain. And now Spain actually said that we can’t use their bases, we could use their base if we want, we could just fly in and use it. Nobody’s gonna tell us not to use it”

Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.

They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.

Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.

Watch how they vote this week.

Trump: β€œI’m not going to start a war. I’m going to stop wars”
