It’s 100% a national security crisis and should be treated as such. POTUS is falling asleep on camera multiple times a week, and the GOP is (publicly) pretending like everything is fine. Privately, they’re panicking, but they’re also cowards, so they won’t say or do anything about it.

I saw chaos inside and outside of the ICE detention center Delaney Hall today. Detainees protesting the lack of due process, the disgusting food and poor treatment while their families and advocates stood outside calling for help. 1/4

ICE tear gassed NJ Senator Andy Kim outside Delaney Hall in Newark after detainees launched a hunger strike over conditions that included spoiled food, lack of medical care, and extreme heat. h/t veronicadelacruztv

He’s saying it outright, like he always does when he’s planning to pull some evil shit.

Trump's commencement message to Coast Guard cadets: "I'm gonna be here in '28. Maybe I'll be here in '32 too. I don't know. Maybe I will."

Hawaii just enacted a law that effectively neuters Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

Right out in the open, Donald Trump is suing his own IRS to try to steal $10 BILLION taxpayer dollars. I just introduced a bill that would make this theft ILLEGAL.

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.

Change this guy's name to Hunter and MAGA would be storming the Capitol again. open.substack.com/pub/thecause...

If the Republicans want to force everyone to have a specific voter ID in order to register to vote, they should also mandate that a convenient and free voter ID be provided to all American citizens.

wait, we had to ask *THE BRITISH* to evac US personnel? holy christ these people are incompetent abcnews.com/Internationa...

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet — and watching to see who refuses to wear them. It's Solzhenitsyn's Stalin story come to life: the first person to stop applauding ended up in the gulag. The lesson then, as now — never be the first to stop clapping.

We must stop doomspeaking and start organizing!

The fact that Donald Trump is going to try to subvert the 2026 elections doesn't mean he will be successful. We have shown before that we can fight back in court and win. The key is that we must educate everyone about what is going to happen and what they can do as well to defend democracy.

Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws? Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

It’s coming on Iran.

WAR.... #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

Name the policy, Rep. Kiley always voted with Trump. He's still backing Mike Johnson as Speaker, caucusing with the GOP, conceding their unpopular agenda and still going along with all their policies and insanity.

In contrast to the coverup of the EPSTEIN crimes here in America, there are ongoing investigations in the UK, France, Turkey, Poland, Latvia & Lithuania that is sure to expose his central, filthy role in the largest crimes against humanity case in world history. #AccountabilityIsComing

Keep it going... #Iran #Epstein #EpsteinFiles

Trump is burning through taxpayer dollars on wars just like he burned through his father’s money in the 80s.

The FBI does not interview someone four times unless they think they're credible. Trump raped a 13-year-old child.

In 2020, trump said it was “stupid” that America spent trillions on Middle East conflicts while our healthcare, roads, and schools needed fixing. Now look what he’s doing. Same wars. Same costs. Same neglect at home. The only thing that changed was the excuse.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

MOSKOWITZ: I want to give you a chance to answer on the record Rep. Kamlager-Dove's question about sexual relations with Corey Lewandowski NOEM: The tabloids you are quoting are insane MOSKOWITZ: So it's a no? NOEM: You say conservative women are stupid or sluts. I am neither.

Jasmine Crockett putting the work in. We're going to miss her when she's gone, but I have a feeling she'll be back.

I was surprised and impressed to see her there today. Just getting from Texas last night up to DC this AM must have been tough.

“Imminent.” You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Since the Dow is under 50,000, can we talk about the Epstein files again?

Most definitely 👇

CORREA: What do you suggest I tell my constituents? Have a passport with you all the time? NOEM: No. I would tell your citizens to be grateful they live in this country where President Trump is upholding the law. We will help them self-deport. CORREA: These are American citzens!

This is smartly framed by @rokhanna.bsky.social…and true.

The only things you need to know. Gas is up and the DOW is down.

Good morning, Texans. Go vote. Then, it's unity through November.

BLUMENTHAL: Have you met with any of the American citizens who have been detained or arrested by your agents? NOEM: They could've been instructing law enforcemen-- BLUMENTHAL: You haven't met with them. I'd like to introduce you to 3 of them. Will you please stand?

BREAKING: The UN's nuclear watchdog chief, Rafael Grossi, says inspectors have not found evidence of a coordinated Iranian program to build nuclear weapons, despite Israeli and US claims. LIVE updates: aje.news/dp8prb

BLUMENTHAL: Wouldn't you agree no citizen working lawfully should be arrested? NOEM: There are times when they may be arrested or detained until identity is confirmed B: Would you agree citizens should not be arrested? N: When there's probable cause ... B: They said, 'Get him. He's Mexican'

Today's explanation for the Iran War (they shift by the minute) is that Israel was going to attack and so we had to as well. We were "forced" into war by Netanyahu. That's the definition of weakness - being suckered into a war of choice that no American wants.

So the State Department is forcing everyone to immediately leave the region but is also refusing to help people leave the region. The strike itself is illegal and disastrous but their lack of readiness for what comes next is unforgivable as well. Incompetence everywhere.

It will be the kids of poor families and the middle class that die. It will be working families that pay the costs. The Epstein class will not suffer.
