Democratic senators back from Middle East trip say US complicit in Israel’s ethnic cleansing
Chris Van Hollen of Maryland and Jeff Merkley of Oregon say Israel is systematically destroying Palestinians Two Democratic senators claim they’ve reached the “inescapable conclusion” that Israel is acting on a systematic plan to destroy and ethnically cleanse Palestinians from Gaza to force locals to leave, and they say the US is complicit. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland and Jeff Merkley of Oregon, both members of the Senate foreign relations committee, released their findings in a report on Thursday after returning from a congressional delegation to the Middle East where, they note, the destruction goes beyond bombs and bullets.

Trump calls for new US census that excludes undocumented immigrants
Census has historically counted all residents regardless of citizenship status, as required by the 14th amendment Donald Trump announced on Thursday that he has ordered the commerce department to conduct a new census that would exclude undocumented immigrants from the official count. In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the census would be “based on modern day facts and figures” and use “results and information gained from the Presidential Election of 2024”. He added that “people who are in our country illegally will not be counted”. Continue reading...

Security leak triggers bipartisan anger after Atlantic reveals officials inadvertently broadcast highly sensitive military plans * White House inadvertently texted top-secret Yemen war plans to journalist A catastrophic security leak is triggering bipartisan outrage after the Atlantic revealed that senior Trump administration officials accidentally broadcast highly sensitive military plans through a Signal group chat with a journalist reading along. On the Senate floor on Monday, the minority leader, Chuck Schumer, called it “one of the most stunning breaches of military intelligence I have read about in a very, very long time” and urged Republicans to seek a “full investigation into how this happened, the damage it created and how we can avoid it in the future”.
