Hegseth refused to be interviewed, refused to hand over his phone or the transcript of the illegal Signal chat. (that came from The Atlantic, not Hegseth.) Beyond his obstruction, investig. found he released classified data to people w/out clearance on a personal phone, which “shredded” all records.

Rest in power, Chairman Fred!

Unlike Trump policies, the internet wins again 😂

Every damn next day!! How DOES he do it??

X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based. Here’s an “influencer from Texas”

In a world where Trump punches down, be like Pope Leo and lift people up.

A House panel is holding a hearing on a proposed ban on Congressional stock trading. This ban is long overdue. Why should members of Congress be able to use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you?

CNN: What if there are more names connected to the Democratic Party that come out in the files? CHRIS MURPHY: So what?

Whistles are one of the most accessible tools in resisting ICE. Here’s how to use them:

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

What these Epstein e- mails do verify, is that is Dump is dumb as hell, or as Epstein puts it, " your world doesn't understand how dumb he really is" We all knew this from his first term, that Dump has no business in the Whitehouse as President of the United States

A report released Wednesday includes interviews with 40 of the 252 Venezuelans who were sent to the notorious Terrorism Confinement Center. They describe being beaten by guards, with some being taken to solitary confinement as punishment for protesting, & others being driven to the brink of suicide

Newsom's latest troll 😆

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

ICE is inflicting a lifetime of trauma on families. And it’s being carried out in the name of the United States of America.

Child rapist Donald Trump is doing everything to keep accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell happy, until he pardons her, so she doesn't talk.

People line up for food at food banks while The Dictator builds himself a ballroom. LET HIM EAT SHIT!!!

This is real. 😏

Today marks 30 days of the Republicans’ shutdown. Now, 42 million Americans, including 3.5 million Texans, are at risk of losing access to SNAP. Enough with the games. It’s time for them to show up and do their damn jobs.

I agree, but I also fundamentally think the GOP coalition in its current form can't win any shutdown fight. They are explicitly the party of anti-governance and government.

I’m the first congressional candidate to be indicted under the second Trump administration. But if things keep going the way they are, I won’t be the last. That’s why I need to fight these charges with everything we’ve got. Help us do that here: katforillinois.com/legal

It's amazing to see what action happens when names are actually named if only there were anyone who knows any names now would be a great time to name them or you can just write a book about it after your dead 📚

FACT THERE HAVE BEEN 20 DEATHS IN ICE CUSTODY THIS YEAR. That is more than the prior 4 years. Here is the link to ice.gov. What they have on their website is disgusting. .

😳

Well, this is not going to go over so well with the Libertarian/MAGA crowd I'm glad they are taking up gun control, but based on weed use? 🤔 That might be the most Boomer thing I have ever heard. #Pinks #GunControl

Why do the racists always end up being pedophiles too 🧬

Vance on public outrage over the "I love Hitler" group chat: "Grow up! Focus on the real issues. Don't focus on what kids say in group chats... The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys — they tell edgy, offensive jokes. That's what kids do."

Seems our reporting was spot on
