Coons: "Right now, the clearest winner from this war in Iran is Russia. It's stunning that President Trump is on the phone with Vladimir Putin and spending more time consulting with him than he is with Congress and the American people."

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

This is an irresponsible, misleading post that misrepresents what Leavitt said. There's enough awful stuff happening. Don't confuse people.

Let the GOP rats go down with the sinking ship. They enabled this.

The U.S. economy lost jobs in 0 of the 48 months Joe Biden was president. It has lost jobs in 6 of the 14 months of Trump's second term.

The Pentagon is swimming in cash after the last GOP budget. They can’t even pass an audit for their spending. The bill was loaded up with so many earmarks the Pentagon doesn’t even know how to spend it all. But now Trump wants more. No amount of military spending for the war machine is enough.

It’s past time for Trump and Hegseth to come clean on this. They already know the truth. What they are doing now is simply refusing to accept responsibility.

New NBC poll finds Trump deeply underwater on top issues:

44-54 on immigration
43-54 on foreign policy
41-54 on handling Iran
36-62 on inflation and cost of living

More confirmation that Trump has hit the trifecta, tanking on GOP friendly issues of immigration, economy, national security:

AOC: The Pentagon has not passed an audit, and they are out here trying to kick people with disabilities off of Medicaid. It is corruption that is stealing from the public coffers — and that is the actual waste, fraud, and abuse.
