Trump shows Iran who's boss.

Apparently nobody told Bessent about Obama’s Iran Deal (that Trump pulled out of) 😬🤷🏼

Corruption in plain sight. It will take a decade to fix this debacle. #TrumpCorruption

We’d like to set the record straight. At the Cabinet meeting, Trump said the Obama and Biden administrations spent “hundreds of millions of dollars” trying to fix the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool and claimed his own renovations were being done far more cheaply.

Both parts of that claim are false and misleading. FDT!

This is messed up! The White House rolled out an extraterrestrial-themed “aliens” webpage not about UFOs, but as a tool targeting immigrants. If you haven’t seen it. It’s just a WTF moment. Link: www.whitehouse.gov/aliens/

One reason Republicans have had lots of political success in recent years (i.e., control of all three branches of government, the majority of governors and most state legislatures) is because their movement is underpinned by the threat of state and state-sponsored violence.

💔 Bakhmut in Donetsk Oblast was once a large, vibrant city with its own industry, streets full of life, and tens of thousands of residents. After Russia came, it became a scorched and lifeless land. This is what 'liberation' means in Russian.

Tokyo says it will continue supporting Ukraine in the pursuit of a just and lasting peace and further strengthen Japan-NATO cooperation. Grateful to Japan for its consistent support. Every contribution that strengthens Ukraine brings a just and lasting peace closer.

Russia has destroyed a train station building in Shostka, Sumy region, and damaged the station's infrastructure. This was done by direct attacks of dozens of Russian drones. Thankfully, there are no victims. So, last night Ukrainian drones destroyed Russian military equipment worth millions

The overall death toll from "suspected" drug boats in the Eastern Pacific & Caribbean has surpassed 200 people! How bloody sadistic does one have to be to actually sign off on something such as this? 200 dead & for what?

No more bombing fishing boats in the Caribbean Sea.

Today, I led a NJ delegation letter demanding that Secretary Mullin and Acting Attorney General Blanche take action to immediately end the inhumane conditions at Delaney Hall and ICE's retaliatory tactics against detainees and advocates. 1/2

What I saw there earlier this week and continue to see is absolutely unacceptable. Delaney Hall must be shut down immediately. 2/2

A revolving door of corruption. Zero regard for the rule of law. Companies like GEO Group are profiting off of human misery and it’s time for it to end.

Close Delaney Hall. Close them all.

ICE is targeting press outside Delaney Hall

It’s telling how many of the large news organizations who are flush with money aren’t sending journalists to cover ICE (and now state trooper) violence overnight outside Delaney Hall and the independent outlets with far less financial and insurance coverage are braving it.

Chris Murphy: “We're living in a banana republic right now. Let's just be honest – I mean, there is no law when it comes to the friends of the president & when it comes to the enemies of the president”

A reminder that bribe for hire Pam Bondi isn’t the only one involved in the criminal cover up of the Epstein Files, Todd Blanche is very much guilty too considering it was him who sent Ghislaine Maxwell to a lower security prison. Both belong in prison.

Thanks to Trump's war with Iran, American farmers are feeling the squeeze: fertilizer prices are changing by the minute, soybean farmers are still facing export tariffs, and diesel costs are up, too.

In preparation for Trump’s UFC fight at the White House next month, Pentagon officials are hoping to lure hundreds of troops to attend the event. The catch? Troops need to meet strict physical requirements, including weight and height standards, in order to be eligible.
