Former President Clinton’s deposition raised even more questions about Trump’s relationship with Epstein.

What’s clear is that the Trump administration is engaging in a massive cover-up and they must be held accountable.

170 killed Iranian schoolgirls - Trump is spinning one of his usual fantasy narratives, denying that the US bears any responsibility β€” claiming other countries somehow used a Tomahawk missile to destroy that Iranian girls' school and kill 170 schoolgirls and teachers

Trump says Iranian missile misfired
One problem, Iran does not have tomahawks
Neither does Israel for that matter
US military said the tomahawks were used on day 1
Hegseth said we are investigating
Turns out America is bombing civilians too, Russian style

Vague and contradictory Trump says Iran war β€˜won’, but not β€˜won enough’ After oil prices surged on Monday the US president sought – and failed – to offer a clear vision for when the largest US intervention in the Middle East in years will end

www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m... Anyone who watches this whole speech will be terrified this morning. Trump is losing his cognitive capacity so something he said mins ago is unprocessed and then contradicted. He always lies but to claim Iran had a tomohawk and bombed their own kids wow

Somehow, #Trump can run multiple, contradictory messages, simultaneously, hour by hour. ”The war is very complete, pretty much.” With he and Hegseth riffing off each other. The market analysts and investors jump around like cats on a hot tin roof. Who’s raking it in most? #Iran #Putin

I think JD's message has become more clear. When Kamala Harris sends young people to fight in stupid wars, that's bad. When Donald Trump sends young people to fight in stupid wars, however, that's good.

Does this seem right?

ICE locked up a deaf kid without his hearing aidsβ€”and wouldn't let him have them back Rep. Eric Swalwell is working to help the family seek humanitarian parole.

When six-year-old Joseph Rodriguez got sick, his mother had to bring him along to her regular check-in at a California ICE office.

There, last week, he was immediately detained and quickly deportedβ€”all without his hearing aids.

So he’s surrendering without accomplishing any of his stated objectives while declaring victory. Exactly what we said would happen.

How Democrats flipped 22 Georgia counties with a utility board race The campaign for once-obscure regulatory positions could be a bellwether for midterm elections as skyrocketing electricity prices drive voters to the polls.

In a stunning upset, Democrats Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard unseated Republican incumbents Tim Echols and Fitz Johnson by record margins β€” installing Democrats on Georgia’s Public Service Commission for the first time in more than 20 years.

Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.
