@sanders.senate.gov on the opportunity cost of war: "All over this country, people are sleeping out on the street, can't afford housing, can't afford healthcare. We are the richest country in the history of the world... We need to provide a decent standard of living for every man, woman and child."

1. BREAKING

A federal judge has ruled that Kari Lake was not legally allowed to serve as acting CEO of the U.S. Agency for Global Media (USAGM) because her appointment violated both the Constitution’s Appointments Clause and the Federal Vacancies Reform Act.

2. The court found that Lake was never eligible to take the role because she had not been Senate-confirmed and also was not serving in the agency when the vacancy occurred.

3. As a result, the court held that any actions she took while exercising those powers β€”including major personnel decisions like layoffs β€” have no legal force and cannot be ratified after the fact.

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

The Trump regime has abandoned the constitution:

- declared war without Congressional authorization

- ignoring multiple court orders

- impounding Congressional authorized funds

- ignoring the freedom of speech and assembly

It’s a lawless regime that has no legitimacy.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

$1.5T defense budget
$170B on ICE & Border Patrol
$100B on tax cuts for the 1%
$20B from Treasury for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$300M on Kristi Noem's jets
$100M+ for Trump to golf
$75k+ for Kash Patel's Olympic trip

And now $50B in emergency funding for war in Iran?

Priorities.

A federal crime.

The president of the United States is accusing his DHS secretary of committing a federal crime.

President Trump tells Reuters that he never signed off on a controversial $200 million ad campaign prominently featuring Noem herself.

Which means the President is accusing Noem of lying to congress.
