Reupping.

Not only did Trump minimize possibility of terrorist attacks on US. But White House nixed a law enforcement bulletin ABOUT those threats.

It’s about time someone said it out loud on a national news show.

Major Gen. Paul Eaton (ret.) — on Trump’s interest in putting boots on the ground:

“We have a situation where someone called a malignant narcissist is unfortunately drifting into a state of dementia that is difficult to manage.”

Yes. And we have to talk about this now, because talking about it is the first step to making it seem like a callous crime rather than a surprising emergency.

This is an important step forward, and I want to thank @libradunn1.bsky.social and @semperwry.bsky.social for their courage in fighting for this. To make sure that a future Congress doesn’t take the plaque down, we’re going to continue our litigation until the plaque has a permanent home.

We can throw another $500,000,000,000 at the Pentagon this year and spend $1,000,000,000/day on a wholly useless war, but we can't afford to hire doctors and nurses to take care of our veterans? The United States is such an irresponsible, messed up country right now.

Ben Stiller is calling out the White House after it used a clip from Tropic Thunder in a video promoting the Iran war.

“We never gave you permission and have no interest in being part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie,” Stiller wrote.

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.

DOJ releases missing Epstein files related to a woman who made an allegation against Trump The Justice Department indicated that the documents were not previously released because they had been "incorrectly coded as duplicative."

"In a series of 2019 interviews with the FBI, the woman said she was a sexual assault victim of Jeffrey Epstein. She also alleged that she was assaulted by Trump in the 1980s when she was between the ages of 13 and 15." 1/

Today in Budapest, Hungarian authorities took seven Ukrainian citizens hostage. The reasons are still unknown, as well as their current well-being, or the possibility of contacting them.

These seven Ukrainians are employees of state-owned Oschadbank, who were operating two bank cars transiting between Austria and Ukraine and carrying cash as part of regular services between state banks.

In fact, we are talking about Hungary taking hostages and stealing money. If this is the “force” announced earlier today by Mr Orban, then this is a force of a criminal gang. This is state terrorism and racketeering.

We have already sent an official note demanding an immediate release of our citizens. 

We will also address the European Union with the request to provide a clear qualification of Hungary’s unlawful actions, hostage-taking, and robbery.

GOP Sen. Steve Daines announces retirement as part of a cynical gambit It was a cynical process that effectively gutted the idea behind primary campaigns: GOP leaders picked their candidate and told GOP voters who it would be.

As I suspected, Daines announced his retirement at the last minute so he could pick his own successor. There's really no time left for anyone else to get in, and Alme was informed first and ready to go.

Republicans really don't like voters choosing their candidates.

SCOOP: A prosecutor who helped build the Georgia election interference case against Trump is running to unseat the appeals court judge whose ruling helped bring the case to an end.

Will Wooten will challenge Trent Brown, who wrote the opinion disqualifying Fani Willis.
