ICE is using a Navy war-fighting contract (WEXMAC TITUS) to turn warehouses into detention sites in the US.

They're using mil procurement to skip transparency & local safety laws.

Call your Reps and demand:

1. Why is ICE using WEXMAC TITUS?
2. Where is the oversight?
3. What are you going to do?

"Ordering America’s best military leaders to leave their duty stations at the same time to fly from all around the world to gather in one room to listen to highly partisan speeches is an incredible security risk and waste of taxpayer dollars. We should be focused on improving military readiness, supporting servicemembers and their families, getting our shipbuilding programs back on track, and addressing real threats from China, Russia, and other adversaries. Instead, Secretary Hegseth disrespected servicemembers, especially women who serve in combat, and announced steps to weaken Inspector General oversight that is critical to delivering safety and efficiency..." "...President Trump’s proposal to use U.S. cities as ‘training grounds’ to address the ‘enemy from within’ should be deeply troubling to every American. It’s clear that today’s meeting was nothing but a performance for the Republican base and an effort by Secretary Hegseth to keep his position amid increasing reports of his erratic behavior and concerns from members of Congress, defense officials, and his own Administration about his ability to do the job."

My statement on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and President Donald Trump’s meeting with military officers at Quantico:

This story is WILD. Trump sent Seal Team 6 into North Korea to plant a listening device. The entire thing went sideways within minutes of landing when they noticed a fishing boat near the beach. They killed everyone on board, sunk the bodies to cover their tracks, and fled. Congress was never told.

I just saw this piece at the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk, VA. It is powerful but "Remember Don't Forget" literally brought me to tears. I can not ever remember having such a viseral and emotional reaction to a work of art.

Reproductive Health Services The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is proposing to reinstate the full exclusion on abortions and abortion counseling from the medical benefits package, which was removed in 2022. Before that time...

Under a proposed rule from the Trump administration, pregnant veterans would be barred from accessing abortions at Department of Veterans Affairs hospitals in cases involving rape, incest, or serious risks to the mother’s health.

Shouldn't we be challenging his use of emergency powers to impose the tariffs in the first place?
