The reason why our stockpiles are seriously depleted is not because of Joe Biden. It is because the Iran War is the SEVENTH bombing campaign by Trump in the past year. And that doesn’t count the Venezuelan boats. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Q: On the school strike, can you say if there is any evidence right now that it wasn't a US strike? And you didn't mention Israel. Is there any assessment about Israel's role in it?

LEAVITT: Again, the Dept of War is currently investigating

Ansari: "The DOJ was caught red handed withholding explosive and credible FBI witness interviews of a woman who accused Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her when she was a minor. Shouldn't we hold hearings on that? Shouldn't Pam Bondi be here, forced to testify about why she's violating the law?"

Ohio sends voter registration data of nearly 8 million residents to DOJ Secretary of State LaRose says the handover is required under federal law.

Shame on Ohio for handing over personal voter data to DOJ.

While other states DEFEND their voters and elections from Trump’s attacks, Ohio happily gives in.

Wow: It appears Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT) will not run for reelection.

This comes just days after Rep. Ryan Zinke (R-MT) also announced he will not seek reelection.

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do

So we’re just going to forget all about this and never ask Trump, Leavitt or Hegseth about it again after the first day because this is totally normal so who cares.

We need to pass a House rule or law that requires them to work a certain number of days to get paid. Since Mike Johnson took over these people hardly ever work. When they finally come back after weeks off they work 2 days and he sends them home for 2 more weeks. It’s ridiculous.

It’s not just that the Administration isn’t answering questions about Iran.

They’re lying.

The Military-Industrial Complex Speech (1961) National Constitution Center Historic Documents Library record for The Military-Industrial Complex Speech (1961)

In his 1961 farewell address, President Eisenhower warned: "In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists & will persist.”

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

We’ve got to keep the Epstein victims and survivors centered while we pursue transparency and accountability.

Their stories must be told.

For the first time, we now know how many Black-owned bookstores exist in the U.S. The National Association of Black Bookstores has released the β€œfirst comprehensive national report” on the state of America’s Black-owned bookstores.

There has never been an official, comprehensive record of Black-owned bookstores across the United States β€” until now

I want to know Secretary Noem's plan to stop masked ICE and CBP agents from killing American citizens like Renee Good and Alex Pretti. We can enforce our immigration laws without terrorizing American citizens and immigrant communities.
