News flash - you don’t actually “believe women” when women come forward and you believe literally everyone other than the women.

There is no place in our country or the Democratic Party for those who abuse women and girls. I stand with the courageous survivor who shared her story. Congressman Swalwell must leave the Governor’s race immediately.

I do not care if someone sends nudes, flirts, or invites someone for drinks; none of that implies consent.

Welcome home Artemis II crew!

Yeet him into the sun.

I have read the San Francisco Chronicle’s account and I am deeply distressed by its allegations. This woman was brave to come forward, and we should take her story seriously. I am withdrawing my endorsement immediately, and believe that he should withdraw from the race.

This is the good news I needed today! 🚀 www.nbcnews.com/science/spac...

BTC: Trump goes after Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, Alex Jones, Megyn Kelly for daring hold Trump to the same standard that he campaigned on (no new wars, gas prices, etc). Katie Zacharia: You simplify this that he's just raising gas prices & dropping bombs. BTC: That's exactly what he's doing.

Congress has a vicious “to-do” list and a BIG problem with Pam Bondi next week Just filed at Capitol ===> youtu.be/hbTUgIm1Gm4?...

Nearly half of Americans (49%) worry that the Trump administration will seize ballots in the upcoming midterm elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Sure, Don.

Top Democrat on House Judiciary formally asks White House physician to conduct cognitive exam of Trump: “Experts have repeatedly warned that the President has been exhibiting signs consistent with dementia and cognitive decline… increasingly incoherent, volatile, profane, deranged, and threatening.”

MacFarlane: If the first lady is trying to preemptively defuse a journalistic bomb that's coming on the Epstein files, I know a lot of good PR practitioners would say: you don't defuse a bomb by calling attention to the bomb

"The whole point was supposed to be regime change; we've gone from Khamenei to Khamenei... At home, we've had 13 service members die, 400 wounded, it's cost tens of billions that should've gone to domestic priorities, the cost of gas is surging. Any way you cut this, unmitigated disaster."

🇺🇸 SOLDIER: “We moved closer to Iran, to a deeply unsafe known target. No good reason articulated.” Q: “Were these deaths preventable?” 🇺🇸 SOLDIER: “Absolutely.” Q: “Hegseth said it was fortified. What fortifications were there?” 🇺🇸 SOLDIER: “I’d put it in the none category.”

NEW: Justice Dept argues Trump’s sweeping Jan 6 pardons do NOT cover the alleged Jan 6 pipe bomber “Different category”.. they say Defense attorneys disagree

This is how Bruce Springsteen opened his concert in Los Angeles last night. 🔥🔥 Footage from @margaret_nagle on Threads.

Happy Dolores Huerta Day. Since 2020, we've recognized this state holiday in Washington. As Governor, it's an honor to celebrate her work fighting for farmworkers, who do backbreaking work, helping ensure safer working conditions, more benefits, and better wages.

Epstein crisis metastasizes for Trump Admin My latest ===> youtube.com/shorts/MTMqe...

Buttigieg: "The big thing that's different now is that in many periods in American history, you have inflation and then the administration does things to reduce it. Right now, we have the administration actively making prices higher."

For people just catching up to the Amanda Ungaro / Paolo Zampolli story (she was an Epstein victim, then the mother of his child; he just had her deported by ICE), here's the bigger context: it was Zampolli who brought the Slovenian model Melania Knauss to the US and introduced her to Trump. 1/

New in PN: America learns about "personalist regimes" the hard way "Trump’s second-term swath of destruction doesn’t only prove that the fascist moniker is apt. It also shows that America is living under a personalist regime, and it’s wrecking us."

I wanna point out something serious. The admin has been complaining about Iran winning the information war. This same administration shut down Voice of America, and other information operations the US govt does. It’s a self goal. Actions have consequences

About Hegseth's restrictions on Pentagon media... Former Navy pilot Ken Harbaugh says the removing of reporters risks lives

In recordings obtained exclusively by the Daily Beast, convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein bragged about his close friendship with both Donald and Melania Trump.

🚨🚨 BOMBSHELL on Sky News: Expert correspondent reads leaked 2002 email from Melania Trump to Ghislaine Maxwell — asking about Jeffrey Epstein and Palm Beach. The Trump White House is in full panic mode, desperately trying to distance itself from the exploding scandal.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: "President Trump is failing right now, so he's a man who's lashing out. He's mentally unstable."

Survivors of the deadliest Iranian attack on U.S. forces since the war began have disputed the Pentagon's description of events and said their unit in Kuwait was left dangerously exposed when six service members were killed and more than 20 wounded. www.cbsnews.com/news/iran-wa...

Melania Trump wants these photos and emails to be scrubbed from the Internet. Please stop liking and sharing them. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Trump is done. He needs to be removed from office. He’s compromised, unwell, and unfit. Call your Republican reps and tell them it’s time. He’s an albatross. Cut him loose.

Trump just posted a video of a woman getting murdered on his Truth Social account truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...

A very “bizarre” day for the First Lady of the United States She re-inflames the Epstein crisis for the Administration Tonight’s edition of “Scott MacFarlane Reports” youtu.be/pO4f9Oog8PQ?...

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that Trump released a series of deranged Truth Social posts right after Melania did a surprise “press conference” on Epstein without telling him.

Reuters: US JUDGE ORDERS PENTAGON TO COMPLY WITH RULING RESTORING PRESS ACCESS - COURT DECISION

EXCLUSIVE: At least three people have lodged discrimination complaints against Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, alleging she sought to retaliate against women who reported her husband for sexual misconduct, sources say. Read more from Carol Leonnig and Mychael Schnell:

More than 400 hospitals are at risk of closing thanks to Trump's "big, ugly bill." This will hit rural families—they'll now have to drive even farther before they can get care—if it's not too late by then. This is what happens when you prioritize billionaires & bombs over Americans.

Periodic reminder: It doesn’t matter how loyal you are. The second you disagree with Trump on anything, he’ll turn on you and most of his base will blindly follow. This is why the GOP never speaks out. They all hate him, but they’re terrified of his social media accounts.

Coming in hot

Trump posts a bonkers rant: “I know why Tucker, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, & Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — bc they have one thing in common, Low IQs”

BREAKING: First Lady Melania Trump urges Congress to provide Epstein victims with public hearing, saying "give these victims their opportunity to testify under oath, in front of Congress."

There is NO reason unless she's trying to get out ahead of something. Why on earth would the administration risk putting the Epstein files back into the news cycle? I think (dons tinfoil hat) Ghislaine is threatening to spill the tea in exchange for a pardon.

NEW: Epstein survivor Dani Bensky, “It’s great to hear Melania Trump acknowledge the devastating harm to survivors But we need a serious legal mechanism that gets to the truth without putting survivors in harms way.”

Melania Trump: Epstein was not alone. I call on congress to provide the women who have been victimized by Epstein with a public hearing specifically centered around the survivors. Give these victims the opportunity to testify under oath in front of congress with the power of sworn testimony.

Residents of a small Wisconsin town just passed a first-of-its-kind referendum on AI data center development. Tax incentives for future data centers will now require voter approval. Kudos to these residents for taking on Big Tech. Never doubt your power to change the system.
