I’m introducing a bill to ban bets on war and death in prediction markets.
Betting on war and death creates an environment in which insiders can profit off of nonpublic information, our national security is jeopardized, and violence is encouraged.
Congress must act.
The Trump administration has rolled back federal environmental regulations to make it easier for the corporate polluters who bankrolled his reelection campaign to profit off our families, our public health, and our planet. (1/2)
Donald Trump's war is driving up gas prices.
But now he's using this chaos to lay the groundwork to restart offshore oil drilling in California at the sites of previous spills.
Californians do not want more drilling off of our coasts.
Renewable energy is the best way forward.
“You just suggested that Iran got its hands on a U.S. Tomahawk and BOMBED ITS OWN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL on the first day of the war.
You are the only person in your government saying this.
WHY ARE YOU THE ONLY PERSON SAYING THIS?”
PEDOrump’s answer:
“Because I just don’t know enough about it.” 😲🙄🤬

This is an escalation by DHS.
Six US Citizens and permanent residents are now home after being held over 30 hours at O’Hare, transferred to Broadview, and moved across state lines.
Community pressure got them home. So many more do not have that support.

The NSF has provided no evidence to justify dismantling the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). Doing so would undermine one of the nation’s most vital scientific institutions. @ncar-ucar.bsky.social

The Defense Secretary told CBS News that the U.S. is “willing to go as far as we need to go,” as he again refused to rule out the possibility of putting U.S. boots on the ground in Iran.

Hegseth has a tattoo with the words “Deus Vult,” which he has described as a “battle cry” of the Crusades.
He wrote in a book, “American Crusade,” published in May 2020. “We don’t want to fight, but, like our fellow Christians one thousand years ago, we must.”
Christian Nationalism is NOT Christianity, but it is a national security threat.
📌 The Military Religious Freedom Foundation says it has received over 200 complaints that troops are being told war with Iran is meant to accelerate “Armageddon.”
The EPA could be misleading us about forever chemicals

Venezuela, Iran, Cuba, Greenland, Canada, and on and on and on. Lindsey Graham says they are “marching through the world.”
They don’t care how many US soldiers they get killed. Meanwhile, they’re building concentration camps at home for Americans to die in. What will it take for people to wake up?
A very powerful International Women's Day to all!
To celebrate, all today's [English-language edition of] Wikipedia's "Did you know..." features are about women, with this one about Luisa Capetillo Perón, Puerto Rican labor organiser, anarcha-feminist, and social anarchist as its main feature.
"The country has also detained a U.S. citizen, which has not been previously reported..."

Kristi Noem personally approved all DHS contracts over a certain threshold.
But before the contracts reached her, they had to be approved by political appointees. Lewandowski was typically the last to OK a contract before Noem, DHS officials said.
We have 7 days left at the hospice house my sister is at, she is dying of a brain tumor. I will have to come up with $4200 to keep her 2 more weeks. Can anybody help me? I have never asked for help. I appreciate anything you can do. JuneAshworth93@PayPal 🙏💙💙💙💙

Wow -- as first spotted by @BadFoxGraphics on X, Fox & Friends this morning used *old footage of a previous dignified transfer* to mislead their audience about the fact that Trump wore a baseball cap during the one yesterday
