US military spent $9 million on crab legs and lobster in the months before Iran war
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth also authorized the $100,000 purchase of a Steinway & Sons grand piano for the Air Force chief of staff’s home, according to a watchdog report
I used to work for the government. In order to justify budgets, bad actors overspend at the end of the fiscal year. So the administration spent $93B on bullshit to justify massive Pentagon budget proposals, all while gutting health care and food assistance. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

These companies all settled lawsuits with Donald Trump by promising to donate as much as $63 MILLION to his presidential library.
But then, Trump dissolved a library fund.
So where'd the money go?
I'm pressing these CEOs for answers.

Dems call for probe into 'troubling pattern' of legal wins for Pam Bondi's brother
Two Democrats are calling on the DOJ internal watchdog to launch a probe into what they say is a "troubling pattern" of favorable outcomes for Brad Bondi's clients.
Pam Bondi has failed to explain how her brother and his corporate clients continue to achieve unexpected and favorable outcomes in cases in which the Bondi Justice Department intervenes.
@congressmin.bsky.social and I are urging the DOJ Inspector General to launch an investigation.

Russia didn’t just wage war in Ukraine.
It tried to bring explosives into Europe’s logistics networks.
Parcels packed with incendiary devices moved through courier hubs in the UK and EU.
Investigators say the trail leads to Russian intelligence.

This. The “Save America Act” aims to nationalize voter purges using DHS’s centralized “SAVE” voter purge system, which is already plagued by security & accuracy systems, while simultaneously making it difficult for voters to re-register if they are wrongly purged, as Rs have a habit of doing. 1/

The problem with this “sacrifice for our freedom” language is that the Trump administration cannot articulate a single half-plausible reason it did this, didn’t bother to explain to the public it was starting a war in the first place, and has changed its explanation for why three times in a week.

The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs — including nearly two million children.
The move would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war.

‘The cover-up is brazen’: one journalist’s tenacious, traumatic fight to expose Ghislaine Maxwell
Lucia Osborne-Crowley has endured threats and sexual harassment to report on Jeffrey Epstein’s chief enabler. Maxwell’s conviction was only the start of the quest for justice, she says
🚨 'This is her frustration: the coverage centres Epstein, Maxwell & Windsor & tries to unpack their psychology & connections, finding it easier to talk about political corruption than sexual abuse. The human collateral gets lost, as does the survivors’ agency.'
