Israel has been carrying out a β€œbroad-scale wave” of strikes on Lebanon’s capital Beirut while the IDF also launched its 14th wave of attacks on Iran.

The US says strikes on Iran are about to β€œsurge dramatically”.

Palestinians in Gaza fear famine returning as Israel cuts off food amid Iran war Once Israel and the U.S. launched their war on Iran, Israel closed the crossings into Gaza and cut off all aid. Palestinians in the Strip now fear a return to famine amid food shortages and soaring prices.

"Israel almost immediately closed all the crossings into Gaza, including those designated for humanitarian aid."

"Gazans fear that another of Israel's wars will go unnoticed: the resumption of its starvation policy in Gaza."

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...

I’ve been asked if I would support Sen. Mullin as Noem’s replacement.

The answer is a resounding NO. The rot in DHS is deep, much deeper than any individual.

It’s a question of policy not personnel. The Senate should not consider any DHS Secretary nominee until DHS and ICE are reined in.

Americans describe feeling β€œabandonedβ€œ by the US as planes from other countries- Czech, UK, France, Spain etc arrived to evacuate their citizens from war zones in the middle East.

America has lost so much of what once made it great. This regime serves itself. They genuinely don’t care about us-

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Today the House votes on the War Powers Resolution. I will vote YES to limit U.S. military involvement in Iran.

My thoughts are with the families of the 6 American service members killed in Donald Trump’s war of choice.

Congressβ€”not the Presidentβ€”decides when America goes to war.

AOC: We already have multiple American service members who are dead for an illegal action that the president has pursued with no plan out. They don’t know why they got into this war. They’re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they don’t know how they’re getting out.
