Five Republicans just voted with Democrats to subpoena AG Bondi over Epstein files.

She will now need to sit for a deposition under oath.

Trump is losing his grip on his party, over both Epstein and his deepening unpopularity.

Keep speaking up. It's working.

Balint to Noem: "You're the secretary of DHS -- for now. And you think you're immune from accountability. But I promise you this: one day he is not gonna be president anymore. And when that day comes, we will still be here. And in hearings like this, we are going to continue to prove your guilt."

For a start, the way he’s removing the navy around and concentrating it in areas where he has grievances is reducing the strength uf the US Navy to respond to authentic crises. This will probably be shelved as so many of his promises have been.

Analysis: What Kristi Noem and Marco Rubio said vs. what they claimed they said | CNN Politics Two of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet secretaries claimed Tuesday that their comments on high-profile subjects were being described inaccurately.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem claimed yesterday that she never called Alex Pretti a domestic terrorist, just said β€œit appeared to be an incident of” domestic terrorism. In fact, Noem unequivocally called him a domestic terrorist: | CNN www.cnn.com/2026/03/04/p...

FL is β€œa right to work state”, denying workers union benefits. It’s been law in FL since 1944. It prohibits workers from being forced to join a union to be able to work. Like so many laws it pretends to help workers while in effect helping employers keep wages low and able to fire at will.

Alex Pretti and RenΓ©e Good were murdered by federal agents. Soon after, Secretary Noem labeled them 'domestic terrorists.’

I gave her the chance to recant and apologize for the pain she's caused their families with these outrageous lies. She refused.

LIEU: Did Amalia commit a crime?

NOEM: She did not. She's with her family

LIEU: The reason she's with her family is because she almost died in ICE detention until folks brought a lawsuit forcing her release

It has crossed my mind that trump may have made a deal through jared where trump launches an attack at netanyahu’s direction in exchange for getting the Gaza Riviera for free. I dont believe for one second that jared was negotiating anything other than real estate deals.

Marylanders deserve a refund.
YouTube video by Governor Wes Moore Marylanders deserve a refund.

Trump’s illegal tariffs cost Maryland’s businesses and consumers up to an estimated $4 billion.

Marylanders deserve a refund from the Trump-Vance Administration.

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflictβ€”and 9000
miles from North Americaβ€”makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

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.

Many in Florida have turned out to be nothing but scams. The people running them have no facilities, teachers, curriculum, desks, books, or computers, and sometimes not even any students. They get enormous amounts of money based solely on their declarations, pocket the money, and disappear.

Raskin: Based on what you know today, were Renee Good and Alex Pretti domestic terrorists?

Noem: What happened was an absolute tragedy.

Raskin: Were they domestic terrorists?

Noem: My condolences to their families

Raskin: You lied about them.
