I am back in D.C. to hear from cruel Kristi Noem on why she is complicit in the chaos happening at DHS, vote on a War Powers Resolution to rein Donald Trump in, and vote against a DHS funding bill that does nothing to address the reckless actions we’re seeing from ICE.

The work continues.

Former Marine Sgt. Brian McGuinness:
“No one wants to fight for Israel.”

They responded by breaking his arm. Freedom of speech… until you say you don’t want to fight for Israel.

ICE brutally tackled U.S. Marine veteran—now he has filed excessive force lawsuit.

Head hit the ground so hard it left him with concussion.

"You’re not talking shit anymore are you?" agent mocked.

The assault bruised him to the point that it hurt to breathe—was diagnosed with chest contusions.

His name is Jared Polis, he's betrayed the United States and he's a Democrat. Secure voting is the foundation of our democracy, and he's going to the dark side.

Huge slap in the face to democracy. Democratic Colorado governor, @colorado.gov, just publicly signaled clemency to Tina peters, convicted of election interference. If election crimes have no consequences, why would the next denier stop?

Bombardement d’une école en Iran : l’enquête du « Monde » atteste la présence de nombreuses victimes civiles, dont des enfants Les vidéos obtenues et analysées par « Le Monde » démontrent la présence d’enfants et de victimes civiles lors du bombardement d’une école à Minab, en Iran, au premier jour des frappes israélo-américa...

Le Monde investigates the bombing of a girls' school in Minab that claimed more than 180 dead. There was no ambiguity that this was a school when it was attacked, they write. This was a clear war crime that reminds of Hegseth's statement that there would be no "stupid roles of engagement."

NOEM: I would disagree with the judge

CROCKETT: I'm sure you would, but can you tell me whether or not you have a law degree?

NOEM: A what?

CROCKETT: A law degree

NOEM: No I do no-

CROCKETT: Okay

Pete Hegseth Treats Fallen American Soldiers as a PR Problem His use of the Iran war dead to attack the media was disgraceful.

Hegseth shames himself, dishonors the fallen.

Joe Neguse and Kristi Noem, split screen.

Joe Neguse and Kristi Noem, split screen.

Neguse is walking Noem through her false testimony yesterday that her $220M propaganda campaign was competitively bid.

He's reading right from no-bid justification. 4 companies were given the bid.

Neguse: Where is it HQed?
Noem: I don't know.
Neguse: We don't know either. We tried to find it.

Americans are stranded abroad — we all have a responsibility to do everything in our power to safely get them home.

The federal government must immediately provide clear evacuation guidance and plans to leave the region.

I’m calling on the State Department to take action now.

Tuesday Trump volunteered the US Navy to escort commercial vessels through the Straight of Hormuz.
Monday the US Navy made it clear that they do not have the ships for commercial escorts.
The Straight are effectively closed.
Carriers not taking contracts.
Insurers canceling policies.

Trump already wants to give the Pentagon an extra $500 billion in its budget — so much money that officials reportedly don't even know how to spend it.

Now they're gearing up to ask Congress for even more billions to fund the war with Iran.

Imagine what we could do with that money.

The Iranians also have hypersonic missiles.They are possibly more advanced and productive than our corrupt military industrial complex that just seems to scam large amounts of money.

Analysts are noting that while the US couldn't stop Iran's Shahed drones from hitting its well-defended base in Bahrain, Ukraine downs up to 95% of Shaheds in mass strikes across the whole country

You remember the guy from Ukraine, that has no suit doesn’t say enough thank you, and supposedly has no cards?

Looks like he doesn’t need cards - because he has something the “War“-Dept. has not.

Zelenskyj has the @wildhornets.bsky.social

Perhaps time for a nice phone call? 😏

The Pentagon is rapidly burning through its stocks of precision weapons at a rate that puts the U.S. military potentially “days away” from having to prioritize which targets to intercept, according to three people familiar with the matter.-WSJ

Trump henchman Mike Johnson: “We're not at war right now.”

They keep repeating this line so they can argue against the “congress must authorize a war” rule and evade the consequences of declaring war without congress or a legal international basis.
