We mourn the lives of four U.S. service members and twelve Israelis tragically lost in the past two days, and we are praying for those injured.

We are deeply concerned about President Trump’s shifting objectives and lack of strategy on Iran.

The Iranian regime has oppressed and killed its own people and is responsible for the murders of Americans, Israelis, and Jews around the world.

But as we’ve learned from history, launching a conflict in the Middle East is far easier than ending one.

3️⃣ Things You May Have Missed in the State of the Union Donald Trump praised Hamas.

6,000 Syrians legally built their lives in the U.S. under Temporary Protected Status. Trump wants them deported anyway.

The immigration crackdown is threatening to send thousands back into instability. Cruelty should not be policy.

What Trump avoided in the State of the Union could haunt him in November The president’s state of the union was notable for something his second term has largely lacked: restraint.

No new solutions. No serious policy proposals. Just political theater and the exploitation of American heroism that was completely unrelated to Trump.

We deserve more.

We know where this is going.

Trump and RFK Jr’s nominee for Surgeon General is conveniently avoiding telling us her thoughts on vaccines before her confirmation hearing.

I think we all know why.

Trump’s Favorite Voter-ID Bill Would Probably Backfire Congressional Republicans are trying to pass a strict β€œelection integrity” law that seems almost custom-designed to disenfranchise their own supporters.

The SAVE Act would upend our voting system in ways that will hit working families, rural communities, and married women the hardest.

Democracy should be accessible to everyone.

Nick Shirley is a conservative agitator who has been praised by Vance and other GOP leaders and attended Trump's SOTU.

He's now openly supporting antisemitic conspiracy theories and content online and calling to "expose" Jewish Americans.

These are the people influencing leaders of the GOP.

Watch this video.

CBS needs to explain why it is platforming someone who made such overtly antisemitic statements.

We’re grateful @elizaorlins.bsky.social was brave enough to talk about the antisemitism she is facing.

A disgusting display of antisemitism, invoking an age-old trope about Jews and money.

We condemn this antisemitism and those who perpetrated it, and we are grateful to the countless Democratic leaders who have spoken out against it.

Democrats demand special counsel investigation of Bondi, accusing her of perjury Reps. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) and Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.) are calling on the Justice Department to appoint a special counsel to investigate Attorney General Pam Bondi, accusing her of perjuring herself when asked about evidence relating to President Trump in the Epstein files.

Documents from the Epstein files directly contradict Pam Bondi’s claim that there is no evidence that Trump committed a crime.

Congress has a duty to act. @reptedlieu.bsky.social and @repdangoldman.bsky.social are right to call for accountability. Bondi cannot bend the law to protect Trump.

A U.S. veteran adopted an orphan from Iran. Decades later, ICE is trying to deport her The woman has no criminal record and is unsure what prompted the threat of removal. She fears being deported to Iran given her father's military service and her Christian faith.

She was adopted from Iran by an Air Force veteran at age two. Now in her 50s, she’s facing a DHS removal order to Iran. She’s terrified of deportation.

Trump Calls for More Limits on Trans Youth

Last night, Donald Trump again chose division by turning marginalized kids into campaign talking points.

America is strongest when we defend civil rights, including for transgender youth. The priority should be ensuring students are safe in schools – not policing their identities.

Fortunately, the American people aren’t buying it.

They see Trump as cruel and corrupt.

Last night, Democrats won three more special elections. And we’re ready to keep winning in November and provide a check on Trump’s power.

Trump’s approval rating is the lowest it has been since directly following the January 6 insurrection.

Last night, he tried to distract voters with game-show theatrics rather than provide solutions for the floundering economy or the global crises he has blundered into. (2/3)

Trump’s State of the Union Struggled to Land its Points Trump struggled to find a coherent message or tone, and spent much of the speech attacking and sneering at Democrats

Last night’s State of the Union made it clear: Trump is losing, and he knows it.

His address showed that he knows Americans aren’t buying his lies. And his attempts to distract us were pathetic. (1/3)

Urge Congress: Protect Voting Rights and Oppose the SAVE Act Republicans are trying yet again to take away our voting rights by imposing barriers to voter registration, increasing voter roll purges, and requiring unnecessary documentation for voters. Sign here ...

Donald Trump is lying about the SAVE Act.

This bill is a GOP effort to strip tens of millions of Americans of their voting rights.

Urge your elected officials to reject the SAVE Act:

14 million Americans will lose health insurance because of Trump’s Big Ugly Bill that he is now bragging about.

We're 30 minutes into the SOTU, and Trump hasn't mentioned healthcare.

Why?

Because under Trump, healthcare premiums have doubled for 20 million Americans, and 14 million people will soon lose their healthcare.

Trump’s cost-of-living crisis, by the numbers:

$1,625 average cost per family for basic living expenses
$310 average cost per family for groceries
$1,700 average hit per family from Trump’s tariff taxes

Trump's America is unaffordable.

2025 was one of the worst years for job growth. Corporations have cut over a million jobs in the last year, and people are struggling to find good-paying jobs.

Ahead of Trump’s State of the Union address, his approval rating is only 36%. Nearly half of Americans strongly disapprove.

Among independents, Trump’s approval has collapsed to 26%, a new low.

Don’t let Trump fool you: The American people are done with Trump’s chaotic and cruel agenda.

The Republican Party Has a Nazi Problem How did the GOP become a haven for slogans and ideas straight out of the Third Reich?

β€œSome Americans are expressing or abetting ancient hatreds, smirking at the mention of Hitler, and plastering public spaces with images that Allied soldiers once tore from the walls of destroyed German cities. Political leaders who encourage or tolerate such scoundrels should be driven from office.”

Four years ago, Russia invaded Ukraine, beginning a period of war, fear, and trauma for Ukrainians – but also one of unyielding resistance, courage, and endurance.

Four years later, Jewish Americans continue to stand with Ukraine.

Trump's tariffs fell. His assault on the Constitution continues. On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that Donald Trump's tariffs were illegal and violated the U.S. Constitution.

The Supreme Court ruled Trump’s tariffs unconstitutional, and now he’s insulting justices to pressure them to bend to his agenda.

We must watch closely to see if the Supreme Court will push back against his latest lies.
