DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate β€” and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

Russian forces abducted 19 Ukrainians from the village of Sopych in Sumy Oblast, according to Ukrainian Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets.
He noted that such actions are a violation of international humanitarian law.

In December 2025, Russia illegally took about 50 Ukrainians from the village of Hrabovske.

Called 6 senators today.

Only took me 20 minutes total.

Everyone needs to be calling.

When we say nothing, they think what they’re doing is fine.

The reason we got the Epstein files was because we were loud about it.

Don’t shut up now!

Investigators now say the U.S. likely bombed a girls’ school in Iran, killing over 160 people, mostly children. If confirmed, it would rank among the worst civilian massacres of America’s Middle East wars.

The Department of Justice has sued 30 states and DC for access to their unreacted sensitive voter data. My law firm is fighting them in all 30 cases.

We are dedicating so many resources because these are the most important legal fights and the future of free and fair elections is at stake.

ICE is STILL in Minnesota and STILL terrorizing communities. Reporters that say otherwise are either uninformed (which....) or lazy (which... ) or just repeating regime lies (which... is also extremely bad).

People are still missing, people are and will be traumatized, businesses demolished...

It's horrifying to see US politicians and pundits evoke the 6 US soldiers killed in their unprovoked war of aggression, while ignoring the 1000s of Iranians killed. It assumes that Americans only care about American lives. Which is evil, obviously.

On NJ Transit on the way home and the train just died.

Just another day/reminder of how β€œthe richest and most powerful nation in the world” cannot do mass transit.

We can afford a war and build concentration camps, but not mass transit.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.

What's required is investment in working people β€” and better wages.

When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.

Remember this.

The reason we have β€œstupid rules of engagement” is to make sure we don’t bomb elementary schools.

So we're no better than the Russians, who deliberately bomb targets in Ukraine that should be off limits.

The US and Israel struck the headquarters of the Iranian Red Crescent Society, the equivalent of the Red Cross.

We bombed Gandhi Hospital in Tehran. An NICU was hit.

The strike on the girl’s elementary school can be considered an accident in this context.

Gaza was the test run.

Same Formula.
