Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday

It turns out the U.S. did a “double tap” attack just as emergency responders were arriving at the girls’ elementary school. This is what the Russians do routinely in Ukraine.

That’s a war crime under international humanitarian law.

Four people, with their hands up, standing behind 2 people sitting. 

The four people standing are US citizens who were detained, the two people are families whose family members were killed by migrants.

Jayapal is now introducing 4 US citizens who were detained for at least 6 hours merely for observing ICE.

Kristi Noem sent a much-delayed list of USCit detained by ICE yesterday. None of these four were on the list.

The Republicans seem to be prepping an argument that any domestic terror attacks in the aftermath of their Iran attacks will be the fault of Democrats for shutting down DHS funding, so I'd like to remind everyone of this appointment:

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge.

They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership.

We do not have serious people running our country.

The President has launched our nation and our great military into a war of choice, risking American lives and resources, ignoring American law, and endangering our allies and partners. It does nothing to help with the urgent problems here at home that Americans face every day.

NEW: The SAVE America and MEGA Acts could steer voter registration drives into a ditch by preventing civic organizations from collecting and submitting registration forms.

And who would get hit the hardest? Black and Latino Americans who rely on these initiatives. https://bit.ly/4tXfYgw

In an Intense Election Year, New Post Office Rules Could Trip Up Voter Registration A change in how mail is postmarked could lead some voters to miss key deadlines, including voter registration. Advocates worry the people most affected will be those already facing voting barriers.

Because of new USPS rules, voters who mail registration forms near the deadline may risk being left off the rolls. One solution: requesting a manual postmark at the retail counter of a post office.
