"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

WATCH: Trump sidesteps responsibility for deadly strike on Iranian girls' school President Donald Trump erroneously claimed Monday that Iran has access to the American Tomahawk cruise missile, the weapon likely used to strike a girls' school in Iran, killing 165 people. When asked...

When asked why he was the only person in his administration claiming that Iran has access to the American Tomahawk cruise missile, the weapon likely used to strike a girls' school in Iran, Trump replied, β€œBecause I just don’t know enough about it.”https://to.pbs.org/4ukeKvT

Don’t let Fox get away with it this time. Spread the word.

Fox & Friends Weekend replaced footage of Trump attending yesterday’s dignified transfer with a clip from 2025.

They clearly didn’t want their audience to see him disrespecting fallen soldiers wearing a baseball cap.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

James Talarico: "Our economy is broken. Our political system is broken. Even our relationships with each other feel broken. And that's because the most powerful people in the world want it that way. The real fight is not right vs. left. It is top vs. bottom."

So the fact that we bombed a girls elementary school, while likely using AI for targeting, is going to be a major headline story dominating American news coverage when exactly?

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.

But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

THEY FINALLY DID IT! Sheldon Whitehouse officially called out the connections between Trump, Epstein, and Russia on the Senate floor.

Trump calls on divided GOP to pass SAVE America Act β€˜at the expense of everything else’ Trump suggested the SAVE America Act includes a number of provisions that are not in the proposal.

Four rounds of severe weather will impact the Southern Plains from Wednesday through Saturday. Over 15 million people face threats of large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes, with Friday potentially being the most dangerous. Have a safety plan ready.

Trump ripped up the Iran nuclear deal and created this mess. Now, he's putting servicemembers in harm's way with no clear plan and no Congressional approval. The American people deserve answers β€” and Congress needs to do its job.

On the one hand, the presidency is a fundamentally broken institution.

On the other hand, Congress is a fundamentally broken institution.

On the third hand, the Supreme Court is a fundamentally broken institution.

The idea of a legislative body representing the population having the ability to check the ultimate power of a country’s leader sounds really neat. Someone should write that down.
