And #2: The Senate race is set between GOP incumbent Cindy Hyde-Smith and Scott Colom for Dems. Colom is a DA whose nomination to a lifetime federal judgeship by Biden was blocked by Hyde-Smith.

The idea that America isn’t for everyone who wants to be an American is something that makes my blood boil. Posting a photo of yourself as a Congressman smiling next to these words is wicked. It’s antithetical to the concept of America.

3 examples of misused funds:

Vanity/propaganda ~100’s of MILLIONS of dollars LIKELY BILLIONS once totaled

Pentagon spend-Hegseth ~10s of BILLIONS clearly going to low‑priority items in a 93 BILLION spree

~430 BILLION never spent as Congress intended b/c they were frozen or reprogrammed unlawfully

Holy shit - this would be very, very bad:

Witkoff admits he and Jared Kusher are communicating with Russia through Putin adviser Yuri Ushakov "independently." Witkoff goes on to say the Russians told them they are not sharing info with Iran. Pinky promised.

I’m introducing a bill to ban bets on war and death in prediction markets.

Betting on war and death creates an environment in which insiders can profit off of nonpublic information, our national security is jeopardized, and violence is encouraged.

Congress must act.

one more time: our problem is not polarization. our problem is fascism.

"polarization is the problem" is literally the thesis of Birth of a Nation. it has long been a white supremacist justification for fascism in the US. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/our-proble...

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.

As of today, the joint U.S./Israeli war against Iran has resulted in 1,330 Iranian civilian deaths since the conflict began on February 28, 2026. Approximately 300 children are among the dead. -CNN.

Al Jazeera estimates the wounded at over 12,000.

Who voted for this being done - in their names?

Saying that you -must- be grateful is what domestic abusers and Russian prison guards do. You must take the violence and say you like it. It is a mark of fascism.

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

Golf club firm owned by Trump’s sons merges with drone manufacturer Merger to take drone firm public is latest business move by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr as father is in White House

A Golf club firm owned by Trump’s sons is merging with a drone manufacturer.

But nothing to see here, right? Cause a golf club manufacturing company and drone manufacturer with Israeli ties merger is perfectly fucking normal.

Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement — way more tolerance for civilian harm.

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

Don’t let Fox get away with it this time. Spread the word.

Fox & Friends Weekend replaced footage of Trump attending yesterday’s dignified transfer with a clip from 2025.

They clearly didn’t want their audience to see him disrespecting fallen soldiers wearing a baseball cap.

Americans. Now he’s posting a string of mugshots of black and brown people, presumably to pacify his base.

"The United States government made a promise over 13 years ago... Straightforward, a promise."

Despite keeping their end of the bargain, Dreamers are now being swept up in this administration's mass deportation campaign.
