Conveniently, right before the midterms! This isn’t going to go the way they think it is. The National Guard isn’t going to allow themselves to be used as Trump’s voter suppression force.

Hegseth doesn't dispute the existence of a memo planning for the establishment of a "National Guard response force that's gonna be trained in crowd control and civil unrest and deployed in all 50 states by April 2026."

In a fiery moment on the House floor, Rep. Tom Suozzi just tore into the GOP’s reconciliation package—exposing contradiction after contradiction. If you watch one clip today, make it this. 🎯🔥

BREAKING: A federal court just ruled against the Trump admin's freeze on billions in congressionally approved funds. This victory -- the largest release of this funding to date -- will ensure resources go to communities across the nation for critical infrastructure needs.

In all the outrage about what the White House is doing, please pause for a moment - and even LOWER YOUR PHONE - to pray for the souls of these four brave patriots. Sons of Illinois, California, Guam, and Michigan. They died for their country.

The four U.S. Army soldiers killed in Lithuania: * Sgt. Jose Duenez Jr., 25, from Joliet, Illinois. * Sgt. Edvin F. Franco, 25, from Glendale, California. * Pfc. Dante D. Taitano, 21, from Dededo, Guam. * Staff Sgt. Troy S. Knutson-Collins, 28, from Battle Creek, Michigan. The world honors you. 💔

A memo has just leaked revealing that the Trump administration is planning to sabotage the Social Security Administration. Their plan would gut the agency’s claims process, potentially preventing millions of Americans from getting their earned benefits. Per @juddlegum.bsky.social:

Maddow: I enjoy Bluesky very much. I do not enjoy any other social media platforms at this point at all, but Bluesky is different and I don't have any connection to them at all other than the fact that I'm a happy user there

Remember Cuomo’s daily briefings about Covid from New York. The rest of the country was fixated on them. It was live. It was real. It was the truth of how bad it was. We need that model now to give America the truth…details in a 30-60 minutes. Every single day critical updates. Who’s our leader? Go.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns. 100% of his salary is paid by WA state. Elon fired him. Share his story.

Here’s a thought. With our social media exploding yet under threat of collapse… perhaps we will be able to build more one one one F2F personal and professional relationships. Let TikTok fold. Have more real friends. Just a thought from a media addict who wants reform for the better.

President Musk in his new efficiency office to be, pulled 190 million from childhood cancer research in this latest spending bill. The bill failed the vote tonight. Really? Taking money away from childhood cancer? Really?

You are up to date.
