SEVEN. That’s how many strikes hit near the Iranian girls’ school.

Video shows a tomahawk missile hitting a building next to the school. The kind of “precision” you get when an incompetent administration runs a war on outdated intelligence.

Kristi Noem Is Leaving a Trail of Death Behind Her in ICE Jails Two more deaths in ICE custody were reported this week, including a refugee who died after an untreated toothache.

The reality of what goes on inside ICE jails and prisons often only slowly leaks out through families, victims, lawsuits, and independent investigations. Researchers found that 95 percent of deaths recorded during Trump’s first term were preventable.

New YouGov poll finds that for the first time, a majority of Americans disapprove of Trump *strongly.* His overall approval is down to 38%, a new second-term low.
