Trump says Republicans should 'nationalize' elections, take control from states President Trump said Republicans should try to "nationalize" elections as he keeps leveling unfounded claims of voter fraud in the 2020 election.

Ahh, and there it is. The End Game. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

"The reason why this is of concern, isβ€”he's the president of the United States, he's been found in another case by a civil jury to have been liable for sexually abusing a woman in a department store, he's a convicted felon, and he's had dozens of women accuse him of sexual abuse."

The Pride parade in Annapolis was rescheduled for today after a June cancelation for flooding. So today was Pride with overtones of #NoKings.

Beloved Easton pastor detained by ICE reportedly returns home A local pastor detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in July has reportedly returned to his family in Easton.

Thanks to all who rallied to bring Pastor Daniel Fuentes Espinal home after his unjust abduction from Maryland’s Eastern Shore.

An important victory. There are many more like him. Keep up the fight!

How the US-EU trade deal wards off more escalation but will raise prices and slow growth U.S. President Donald Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen have announced a sweeping trade deal. It raises tariffs on most European goods to 15%.

No one should celebrate the tariff β€œdeal” that Trump struck with the European Union, which will have the impact of a national 15% sales tax.

Trump said he was going to reduce prices on Day One. He is doing the opposite. The Great Betrayal.

Moskowitz: "Kristi Noem doesn't know what she is doing. She has no idea what she is doing when it comes to FEMA ... what she did is she broke it, and she broke it on purpose so that when it fails this summer, she can say, 'Oh, see, we told you -- FEMA doesn't work.'"

On the eve of the celebration of our "freedom" I spoke at a rally in Frederick Maryland, in which we all sang in unison, no one is free until we all are free. That includes freedom of political persecution, freedom to love who you want, freedom from opression and a host of many other things.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Shockingly out-of-it: the person in charge of the Medicare system was unaware last week that the Justice Department is investigating UnitedHealthcareβ€”the biggest seller of Medicare Advantage plansβ€”for criminal Medicare fraud. A major story that broke in May.

What we saw today is what we see in dictatorships.

And if they can do this to @padilla.senate.gov, imagine how vulnerable others in this country are to this kind of tyranny and abuse.

This is a moment for every American to STAND UP for freedom and for our Constitution.
