Incumbent Republican Cornyn locked in runoff with ultra MAGA Texas AG for Senate The race between Cornyn and the scandal-ridden Ken Paxton risks the Senate seat in blood-red Texas falling into the Democrats’ hands

Cornyn slammed Ken Paxton as he gets ready for the toughest 12-week campaign:

"I refuse to allow a flawed, self-centered and shameless candidate like Ken Paxton risk everything we've worked so hard to build over these many years."

There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.

Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very oftenβ€”and her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.

They didnt even show up for the deposition of Les Wexner? If they don't depose Melania Trump, this whole thing is a farce we shouldn't let them waste time & money distracting from the fact they still haven't released ALL of the Epstein files as required by law (they supported).

NOTHING is ever about the country. It's always about HIM.

Let's vote everyone who enables him...the f*ck OUT.

They did place bets on when they would bomb Iran and he did it at a black tie, one million dollar/plate at Mara Lago.

It's all of them who were watching our troops die.

They are some sadistic fux.

I have a theory on why Will Jones decided not to pursue criminal charges against Governor Sanders. How is he allowed to run for anything after letting tax payers foot the bill for his extramarital affair with 11 trips? How can he make determinations on criminal charges on the misuse of funds? #arpx

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

What did folks think was going to happen when they changed the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of War?

Trump took us to war and has no freaking idea how to get us out of it.

Hot take: Trump & friends know who the newest defense contracts are with, know who we are buying the bombs from, want to increase defense spending. And Trump started this war for them to make money in the stock market. Because they have absolutely no low too low for them. & an #Epstein distraction

Trump tells Iranians: β€œDon’t leave your home. It’s very dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere.” Meanwhile, U.S. strikes reportedly hit residential buildings in Tehran. That isn’t liberation. That’s civilians trapped in fear while missiles fall around them.

Pentagon Admission BACKFIRES and Leaves Trump in TOTAL PANIC

#Pentagon officials told congressional staffers there WAS no imminent #Iranian attack, undercutting Trump’s stated justification that recent US strikes on #Iran were "necessary to protect #American personnel". As polls show a MAJORITY of #Americans OPPOSE the military action

Anthropic’s AI model Claude gets popularity boost after US military feud Claude climbs to top of app store charts in US and UK after being blacklisted by Pentagon over ethics concerns

As I've been saying for days: this feud with Hegseth -- in which Anthropic looks principled, and Claude looks so valuable that the Pentagon can't live without it -- has been terrific marketing for Anthropic www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Hegseth taking the Pentagon is Musk taking Twitter: both obsessed with "woke," both allergic to self-reflection, both crave the blood of innocents. Both have the same pickup line: "Sign this NDA."
