"No more beardos": Hegseth's comments stir religious, medical concerns In some religions, a beard is more than facial hair — it's a critical part of one's faith.

I've had a beard for 40 years. Little did I know it would mark me as a member of the resistance.✊

WATCH LIVE: Trump, Hegseth celebrate Navy's 250th anniversary at Naval Station Norfolk President Donald Trump has decided not to let the government shutdown interfere with a stop in Norfolk, Virginia, on Sunday to salute the Navy as it celebrates its 250th anniversary.

You mean the major US navy base where they're having to spend literally hundreds of millions of dollars to adapt to the accelerating impacts of #climatechange on sea level and extreme events?

Feel-good animal thread of the day:

We now have the privilege once more of being serenaded nightly by his hoots from the nest he shares with his mate in the oak tree outside our house. One of the most surreal yet worthwhile commitments I’ve ever made.

If this folklore malarky ever falls through, I think I might have found my calling…

Image of an X post from @JessicaTarlov showing a screenshot of her on "The Five" on Fox News, with the chyron "DEMS SHOOT DOWN BILL THAT WOULD END GOVT SHUTDOWN" and the time "2:02." The post reads: "Republicans can mock Democrats all they want, but the numbers don’t lie. By a 17 point margin, Americans blame the GOP for the shutdown. And Americans overwhelmingly back extending ACA subsidies—71% in WaPo, 78% in the KFF poll. This has nothing to do with 'healthcare for illegal immigrants,' and Trump knows it."

End the shutdown, GOP. Extend the ACA subsidies. Stop shoving more money at the billionaires.

Stephen Miller was not elected, he was appointed.

The people did not choose him.

He’s behind the bombings of Venezuelan boats which have killed multiple people.

Tonight he’s calling for an insurrection.

He’s defying a federal court judge & suggesting people take to the streets in Portland.

Wise words.

White House official inadvertently reveals plans to send elite army unit to Portland Anthony Salisbury displayed chat about deployment of 82nd airborne division on cellphone while in Minnesota

Oh look, another White House Signal scandal.

This time it was an aide to Stephen Miller who was using Signal so openly in a public space that a bystander captured images of the chat.

Oh and the messages were about sending the *82nd Airborne* into Portland.

A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A.

ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why.

A judge has ordered his immediate release.
