Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."
No quarter is the refusal to take prisoners and instead just execute everyone. It's been considered a war crime for over a century.

NEW: Boasberg blocks subpoenas in Powell’s case. "A mountain of evidence suggests that the Government served these subpoenas on the Board to pressure its Chair into voting for lower interest rates or resigning.” www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...
WATCH: JD Vance hides behind confidentiality and refuses to say what he advised Trump about going to War with Iran (which he had previously said was a bad idea)

LANDERS: Why did the FBI seize election records in AZ?
TRUMP: They probably thought the election was rigged
LANDERS: It wasn't though
TRUMP: Oh really? How do you know?
LANDERS: Your own AG said it
TRUMP: If you say it wasn't rigged, you're a rotten reporter
LANDERS: Where's the evidence?
“The timing couldn’t be worse”
Tennessee farmers have been squeezed by Trump’s trade war - now they’re getting hit by his Iran War 🧑🌾
That’s a rare downbeat note from Kudlow.
NEW: We sent a letter to Congress in partnership with more than 250 organizations urging them to block any bill that would give the Pentagon more money to continue this illegal war against Iran.
Our tax dollars must not be used to pay for this unconstitutional and unpopular war.
NEWS: The Trump administration confirmed it bombed a girl’s school in Iran.
It's one of the most devastating military errors in decades.
Trump lied about it. Pete Hegseth gutted the office preventing civilian casualties.
175 are dead. Most were kids. Hegseth should be fired.

1) Trump spends his first year, making America more energy dependent on oil
2) Then he starts a war to drive up oil prices even more.
NEW: The Iranian drone strike that killed 6 U.S. troops in Kuwait at the start of the war was far more devastating than previously disclosed.
Dozens suffered traumatic brain injuries, burns, and shrapnel wounds. At least one required an amputation. More than 30 remain hospitalized. (CBS News)
Middle East war creating ‘largest supply disruption in the history of oil markets’
Absolutely, flabbergastingly insane.
Gen. Grynkewich: "What I've observed over the course of studying air power in history is that any time you attack a civilian population, you usually end up finding that it just hardens their resolve."
The 2026 National Science Foundation budget is $8.75 Billion.

ROGAN: "It just seems so insane based on what he ran on. I mean, this is why a lot of people feel betrayed. He ran on no more wars and these stupid, senseless wars. And then we have one that we can't even really clearly define why we did it."

Ex-Trump National Security Advisor Nadia Schadlow: “Congress does not have a constitutional role in the declaration of war.”
@ezraklein.bsky.social : *READS HER THE CONSTITUTION* 🤔
NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”
Judge rules ICE must limit number of detainees held in Baltimore facility
And just like that we’re back to “Department of Defense”
This is honestly one of the most anti-Jewish things I’ve ever seen from the United States government.
The fuck kind of answer is this
MASSIE: “Iran is not Venezuela. The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 turned him into a martyr, expended billions, 6 🇺🇸 families must now lay to rest their sons & daughters. And for what? This administration can't even give us a straight answer.”
WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.
Thank you, Maryland State Bar Association, for speaking UP!

National Review article excerpt. It reads: "On the other hand, when I hear some people accuse immigrants of destroying the American economy and culture and stealing jobs from American citizens, it stirs my anger, too. I can’t stand to hear immigrants described in terms more appropriate to a plague of locusts than human beings. And although I believe they are a small minority, I begin to wonder if some of the people who speak so disparagingly about immigrants would be just as worked up if most of them were coming from Canada."
Marco Rubio, June 2012.
Rep. Angie Craig: "We were told because this facility is being funding by the 'Big Beautiful Bill,' not the congressional appropriations act, that we would not be allowed to enter the facility. That's complete nonsense ... I informed them they were violating the law. They said they didn't care."
