US Veterans peacefully protesting Trump’s military birthday parade arrested at Capitol Hill. This is the moment a 80+ year old US veteran is taken away in handcuffs for practicing his 1st Amendment right. #3E #NoKings #NoKingsProtests (🎥 @gregjstoker.bsky.social )

A long-running US investigation of MS13 has uncovered evidence at odds with Bukele’s reputation as a crime fighter. The inquiry began as an effort to dismantle the gang’s leadership and expanded to focus on whether Bukele's government cut a secret deal with MS13 in the early years of his presidency.

I know there's a lot going on, but the Secretary of Homeland Security declaring that federal troops are in California and Los Angeles to "liberate" the state and city from its duly-elected leaders really is a fourteen-alarm fire.

Wild how we can spend millions on Trump’s military parade while literal troops sleep on the streets

“‘There’s nobody in the SecDef’s office at this point that has any … sophistication. They don’t have the experience.’ One source described a longtime Pentagon employee discussing the lack of readiness in the office, ‘close to tears,’ saying ‘the department is so fucked.’”

The latest move by the Trump administration to share personal information of Medicaid recipients with DHS should deeply concern everyone. Targeting families for their immigration status is a dangerous breach and we’re exploring all avenues to protect their information.

Completely true about Republican politicians. But do Republican voters also want this? Or do they just believe lies about what this bill does?

I am genuinely terrified of any international incident while Trump is President, let alone a war. Now we have crises abroad, chaos at home. By any measure of success, nearly all aspects of America are a raging dumpster fire right now. How could anyone not see voting for Trump was a disaster?

Netanyahu’s illegal unilateral attack on Iran risks a full-blown war. These strikes directly undermine the U.S. diplomatic efforts to address Iran’s nuclear program. Talks were planned for Sunday, but Netanyahu chose to attack. We must not be dragged into another Netanyahu war.

A pregnant mother of four in California was shocked to see around a half-dozen vehicles carrying heavily armed, masked ICE agents outside her home Thursday morning and even more concerned when she spotted Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem along for the raid.

It appears that we are actively and directly involved in a major conflict between Israel and Iran which is rapidly escalating and the only thing we have heard from the admin is an obviously false denial from the Sec of State and a Truth Social post from the president about peace talks.

Shouldn’t SOMEONE from the Trump admin have addressed the nation about this or are they too busy working on his birthday parade? Are we allowed to know anything about this new war we are fighting?

Let’s talk about yesterday. During a Department of Homeland Security press conference in Los Angeles led by Secretary Kristi Noem, Senator Alex Padilla (D‑CA) was forcibly removed, forced face-down on the ground, and handcuffed by federal agents. Here’s what to know:

We won a court order blocking the president's unconstitutional attempt to seize control of our elections. Today’s win ensures that eligible New Yorkers will be able to register and vote without fear of disenfranchisement, and we're going to continue our lawsuit.

Fox hosts, parroting DHS, claimed Sen. Padilla "ran at,” "lunged at," and tried to “bum-rush” Kristi Noem. Video disproves their claims, showing Padilla standing calmly across the room asking his question as security grabs him.

"Convincing a jury of 12 NJ citizens, most likely the congresswoman’s own constituents, that she assaulted an ICE officer and made him fear for his safety beyond a reasonable doubt, is another matter. McIver will also have a powerful defense in the Speech or Debate Clause." — @lizdye.bsky.social
