Democrats brought a war powers resolution to the floor to rein in Trump’s unconstitutional war in Iran.
Republicans failed to uphold the Constitution and stop Trump’s destruction. They failed the American people.
Feb 13 — White House on Noem, in a statement: “The President continues to have full confidence in the Secretary.”
Mar 6 — White House on Bondi, in a statement: “The President has full faith in the Attorney General.”
Start the clock.
If there were credible allegations against a Democratic president that he had punched a 13 yr old girl in the face after she bit his penis while he was raping her, Fox would be running that shit on a loop 24/7 and calling for his arrest/execution let alone his impeachment.
Himes: I have a theory on how this ends…
You’re going to see oil go across $100… Projections for economic growth are going to go down.
And at some point in 3-5 weeks, the president is going to say this is really not tenable. And he’s going to declare victory and walk away.
We have gone mad.
"The first page of the draft reads: 'It has been determined that a lowering of water quality of various waters of the state associated with granting coverage under this permit is necessary to accommodate important social and economic development in the state of Ohio.'”
The Trump administration's mass deportation dragnet has unleashed a new wave of government surveillance across the country.
In Minnesota, federal agents continue to surveil, track, and intimidate people for exercising our First Amendment rights.
This is how forever wars are financed… with mountainous debts we leave to our children.
you cant teach this. either you have it or you don't.
The daily horrors, the sadism, the depravity, only strengthens my resolve to oppose this sick regime with all my energy.
Excellent and insightful piece. Netanyahu Finally Found a President Willing to Buy Into His Iran Dream newrepublic.com/article/2073... via @newrepublic.com
Wow. The corruption and self-dealing is boundless — in the billions.
Most Americans disapprove of President Trump's handling of Iran, and a majority sees Iran as either only a minor threat or no threat at all, an NPR/PBS News/Marist poll finds.
“Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”
That’s what the President of the United States is saying to the American people.
He won’t be hurt by a retaliatory attack or high gas prices. But you will — and that’s a sacrifice he’s willing to make.
The White House position is that it is no big deal that Putin is helping Iran try to kill US soldiers.
Always remember rule #1. Putin can do no wrong in Trump’s eyes.
Wonder why that is?
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Look out when the shoe's on the other foot. When you got guys, Robert Garcia and others... these folks better get ready, make sure they're not deleting anything, make sure they have lawyers, make sure they're prepared to testify."
Trump promised to deliver Americans: "lower prices" and "no new wars."
When it comes to broken promises—it does not get more blatant than that.
And it's costing you, literally.
Okay... There's absolutely nothing in this story that explains why they can't comply. Tariffs are paid electronically. Why can't they refund them the same way? They keep records of who they've collected the money. I smell bullshit.
Because it's all been grifted to Trump et. al., including ICE Barbie's luxury planes. This is what a real transfer of wealth looks like MAGA. The government literally took your money that they didn't have just a year ago and gave it to themselves.
Related to Tariffs, but underreported, is that the Lutnick family have been gobbling up Tariff Refunds for pennies on the dollar since Trump started the whole Tariff grift.
They stand to earn over a billion in refunds.
All of DHS needs to be thrown into the trash.
Trump robs Americans and then the US government throws up their hands and says, sorry we are keeping your money?
Is that how America works now?
The US Customs and Border Protection agency is unable to comply with a court order directing it to refund tariffs that the Supreme Court has ruled illegal, the agency said in a court filing with the US Court for International Trade reut.rs/4somFXm
JUST IN: US customs agency says it cannot comply with tariff refund order reut.rs/3NjQxW0
Another terrible monthly jobs report for the Trump Administration and they don’t have a pandemic to blame it on.
92,000 jobs lost in February. One has to wonder how much worse it really is?
The DEA opened an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and a dozen other individuals in 2015 that centered on allegations of money laundering, drug trafficking, and the procurement of Eastern European prostitutes for high-profile clients.
So many complicit politicians covering up this horrific tragedy to protect the wealthy and themselves. Hold every single person accountable! No one should escape this evil. #EpsteinFiles
Can a president cancel elections? "Absolutely not,” Wendy Weiser says about emergency powers and elections on the latest Briefing with Michael Waldman. bit.ly/4baHtLa
Rep. Carlos Gimenez on 6 Americans troops killed: "Outside of that, those are pretty light casualties"
The DoD is spending billions to build a shield to destroy missiles launched against the U.S. At least four of the companies awarded contracts so far are owned by a private equity firm founded by billionaire turned Deputy Secretary of Defense Steve Feinberg.
