NEW: the House Oversight Committee will be receiving financial documents on Jeffrey Epstein from the Treasury Department, its chair announced Friday.
👏👏

Everyone should be held to the same standards.

The murders of Charlie Kirk and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman are part of a dangerous rise in political violence.

We cannot accept this as the norm.

We must do whatever we can to reduce the anger and hate that are consuming and destroying so much of the country.

Federal judge pushes back on acting Social Security head over threat to close agency Leland Dudek argued that a ruling blocking Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team from access to sensitive taxpayer data could apply to all employees.

The Trump administration wants to shut down all of Social Security over a ruling blocking 11 DOGE workers from sticking their fingers in your private data.

11 DOGE workers. 73 million Americans.

This is illegal. If it happens, will force millions of seniors into poverty.

Decades Ago, Columbia Refused to Pay Trump $400 Million. Note That Number. A quarter century ago, the university was looking to expand. It considered, and rejected, property owned by Donald Trump. He did not forget it.

Decades before President Trump canceled $400 million in funding for Columbia University, he tried to sell property to the school — for $400 million.

Why Law Firm Paul Weiss Pleaded Its Case With Trump, and Not With a Court The capitulation by one of the top U.S. firms reflects deep worries that being threatened by the president could lead to financial ruin.

This article clears up one important point: Paul Weiss' partners were in on this deal. I had thought (hoped) that this was an example of a misguided leader. Instead, Paul Weiss rank and file partners approved this course. They all bear the shame and responsibility. www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Nothing gets under their skin like the protests and boycotts of Tesla, and the damage we are doing to the stock price. People are also starting to cancel Starlink service. Keep going! It's the best way to have our impact felt!

Trump Administration Dropped Policy Prohibiting Contractors From Having Segregated Facilities The provision had been in place since the civil rights era.

Department of Government Efficiency Deletes a Claim and Resurrects an Error DOGE removed any mention of a long-dead contract from its website, where the government-cutting team has repeatedly posted erroneous “receipts” inflating its success.

The Department of Government Efficiency has deleted a bizarre claim that it had saved taxpayers $53.7 million by “canceling” a federal contract that actually ended in 2005. At the same time, the group resurrected one of the largest errors it has made so far.

Helpful graphic:

Trump surrenders on autos after less than 2 days after the market tanked and he heard from auto CEOs and Republicans in Congress. He’s a feckless dipshit.

Last night, Rep. Lance Gooden ripped a sign out of Rep. Melanie Stansbury's hands. The sign said "This is NOT normal".
Since Rep Gooden was so fond of this sign, please email him a copy of this sign at: lance.gooden@mail.house.gov

I already emailed him this morning.

Trump administration pauses U.S. military aid to Ukraine The U.S. has been a key supplier of weapons for Ukraine as it continues to fend off the invasion launched by Russia three years ago.

First, Donald Trump blamed Zelenskyy for Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.

Then, he says he “trusts” Putin.

Now, he’s frozen bipartisan military aid.

It’s clear that Donald Trump is putting his fragile ego before our national security — siding with Putin over U.S. allies in Europe.

People are saying that Russia is winning, and Putin is now on the inside.

The Trump administration is demanding the home addresses of 700,000 people suspected of being in the country illegally from the IRS. The IRS is resisting this request, as complying would directly violate federal tax privacy laws.

Kinzinger: Zelenskyy had an opportunity to flee Ukraine when Russia attacked and he stayed. Is there anybody that has any doubt about whether Trump would flee the country if we were attacked.

We just received word that the DOJ has begun removing data detailing criminal charges and convictions related to Trump loyalists. This started with records from the January 6th insurrection, but additional records are now being erased. We will keep you updated once we have more info.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.

Trump and Vance yell and trash talk Zelensky while sucking Putin’s dick. That’s where we are at. A century of global leadership vaporized in a month.

Not even hiding it.

Yes, JD, actually he did - he thanked the entire country.
