Repubs say Dem's not cooperating, but House Ranking Dem Rosa Delauro put forth legislation to fund DHS except for ICE & CBP while working out details re observing the 4th & 6th Amendments by those agencies. Repubs refused because they think judicial warrants are an imposition.

$11 billion spent in just six days of war.
$38 trillion in debt.

Trump sounds so deranged, frenzied, and dangerously unbalanced on Iran that every Republican refusing to say it publicly is drifting toward something that looks a lot like criminal negligence.

Bartenders have gone to prison for enabling one drunk driver.

Trump said the U.S. is โ€œdoing very well on the war front, to put it mildly.โ€ Then he gives the U.S. a 15 out of 10 grade for the Iran war. ๐Ÿฅด

Six Americans are dead and heโ€™s grading it like a game.

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America.

And if it was any other presidentโ€™s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, itโ€™d be the instant end of their presidency.

Bots and followers of our 80 year old President who shits himself and the guy who couldn't prevent the October 7th attacks want you to believe Trump & Netanyahu have this all under control in Iran.

I assure you they do not.

American citizens shouldn't get dragged into the dangerous operation at the whim of one man.

Lawmakers, prove your worth! Not voting on the War Powers Resolution means unconditional surrender of your power to the Mad King.

Trump officials move to kill system that protects US from chemical disasters EPA rolls back rules as chemical firms claim provisions in RMP protection system too expensive to implement

#ResistanceEarth

Trump is bowing to chemical companies and rolling back Biden-era regulations that strengthened the EPA's Response Management Program, which is designed to protect workers, first responders and nearby communities from chemical disasters. /1

Trump may force banks to demand your papers. Survivors of abuse will pay. The White House is reportedly eyeing rules that advocates say โ€œwill make getting a bank account nearly impossible" for many survivors, citizens or not.

Itโ€™s unclear what exactly the administration would demand from banks and their users, though the action could impact those who are in the country legally but arenโ€™t citizens and those without access to key documentation that could prove citizenshipโ€”

The Supreme Court ruling has helped the family of one man in particular: the architect of Trumpโ€™s tariffs himself.

A firm headed by Lutnickโ€™s sons was allowing traders to buy the rights to hundreds of millions of dollars of refunds in case tariffs were struck down. trib.al/be2l16x

Doing one thing right every few years doesnโ€™t absolve the Roberts court. Especially after Dobbs and immunity.

A Fatal ICE Shooting Occurred in Texas Months Before Renee Goodโ€™s Killing

ICE killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a U.S. citizenโ€”and you likely havenโ€™t heard about it because DHS has been covering it up for nearly a year.

My heart breaks for his family, who deserve immediate answers and an independent investigation into his death. ICE will be held accountable.
