And just like that we’re back to “Department of Defense”

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.

Donald Trump made trade threats against Spain during an Oval Office meeting with reporters and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. (ANDREW CABALLERO-REYNOLDS / AFP VIA GETTY IMAGES)

Trump: "Spain said we can't use their bases. We could use their bases if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody is gonna tell us not to use it"

Not receiving consent and moving forward anyway is a consistent theme in his life — as E. Jean Carroll can attest

Jayapal: DHS is supposed to be protecting our residents. You have actually turned the United States government against its own residents. Yours is a case of failed leadership secretary, you need to resign, be fired, or be impeached.

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

A handful of Republicans could end all of this. And there are quite a few who hate this war, masked terrorists in our cities, flouting of Congress, corruption, etc.

But unless they prove otherwise they’re all cowards.

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflict—and 9000
miles from North America—makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

It's infuriating and frankly disrespectful to call our modern-day Gestapo, aka ICE, "law enforcement officers." They're nothing of the sort. Real law enforcement protects (or should protect) people. ICE terrorizes them.

BLUMENTHAL: Is the agent who shot Ms Martinez sill on the job?

NOEM: Our officers conduct operations every day-

B: Is he still on the job carrying a gun?

N: I dunno

B: Would you agree he shouldn't be?

N: I'll get back to you

B: I think Americans would find it absolutely terrifying if he is

3 ICE agents got McDonald’s and then went on a joy ride through the neighborhood tonight around 1 AM. This has nothing to do with public safety and is all about terrorizing people and burning through taxpayer dollars. This is why we can’t rest until every last agent leaves our state.

Our taxes

Our taxes

Our taxes are paying for this instead of healthcare.

Something strange really is happening. Some of the MAGA voices now breaking with Trump are suddenly making points that actually make sense. Are we agreeing with them or are they finally agreeing with us? It’s honestly unsettling finding ourselves nodding along with MTG and Massie on a regular basis.

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

Tell Congress: Demand AG Bondi release ALL of the Epstein files now Contact Congress today!

The Epstein cover-up is starting to crack, but Pam Bondi is still stonewalling. This is the biggest scandal in modern history, and it's being buried.

Congress: Do your job. Demand the full release NOW.

Who's with us? Tell your reps:

How come “How are you going to pay for it?” is never asked about endless war?

He was rambling on about the war he got us into and veered off into curtain talk, then seamlessly continued on to discuss the men that have lost their lives.
He did that so easily because he doesn’t care about the dead. His ability to pick curtains is just as important and must be mentioned.
