This is a win for veterans everywhere. The fact that this was proposed in the first place was an insult to every person who has ever put on the uniform.

We will continue to hold this administration accountable to make sure our promises to those who served are kept, period.

These children kidnapped without due process have no medical care, rancid food, cramped quarters, and are living in terror. AND WE KNOW WHERE THEY ARE. 3/3

And honestly it stands in stark contrast to the people who have been kidnapped and disappeared by our government. The 1000+ at Alligator Alcatraz, and the hundreds (thousands?) of imprisoned children living in squalor 2/3

Traveling to the US after moving to Europe gets more and more surreal. I kept wondering what the news networks would be covering if it wasn’t Nancy Guthrie’s kidnapping. I’m sure she’s lovely and it’s a terrible thing, but this is not what the rest of the world is talking about… πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ 1/

Sitting on a plane and the music is Piano Man and I’m wondering why I have been hearing this song as much as when I was in grade school. A Billy Joel resurgence? 🎹

Still waiting with bated breath for the Supreme Court to decide whether this is just fine because we are functionally a monarchy now.

The man who told reporters it’s time to move on from the Epstein files won’t shut up about the 2020 election.

Trump has posted on Truth Social about 65 times in the last 90 minutes, including a video he posted at 8:44 PM PT describing election fraud lies that shows racist AI images of Michelle and Barack Obama as monkeys at the end. I’ve confirmed this is real and watched it myself.

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

BREAKING: Bernie Sanders is introducing an amendment to cut ICE’s $75 billion funding increase, and to use those funds to restore the federal cuts to health care.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.
