This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

Sen. Smith and I just spoke about the lives of Melissa and Mark Hortman on the floor. I shared these poignant words from their kids: “The best way to honor our parents’ memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else.”

Truth to power. Always.

🇲🇽 #PresidentOfMexico #ClaudiaSheinbaum arrives as a special guest at the #G7 in #Canada. Mexicans receive her with great affection, and she responds with great affection in return 🥰

SCOOP: The "Appeal To Heaven" flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists that was waved by January 6 rioters, was raised over the Small Business Administration headquarters last week.

CNN: Breaking news just into CNN, sources say DHS secretary Kristi Noem this afternoon has been taken to the hospital.

Why is AG Pam Bondi refusing to release documents tying wealthy men to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein? Does anyone want to hazard a guess? 🤨

If you are unfamiliar with the term "stochastic terrorism," this is one of the absolute most important times in history to understand what it means.

Tina Smith on Mike Lee: "I went to him and I said, 'Your message on social media showed the image of the man who killed my friend ... and your message is, this is what happens? You need to take responsibility and accountability ...' And I wanted him to hear that from me directly."

Q: What can you do in Washington that you couldn't do in Canada? TRUMP: Just be a little bit, ah, I think more well-versed. Not having to use telephones so much, because I don't believe in telephones, because people like you listen to them.

@smith.senate.gov: "I think [Mike Lee] was sort of stunned to be coming face to face with somebody who was really calling him out on his bullshit... The way that people like Mike Lee and others on the right take advantage of the worst kind of human tragedy and political violence... is unacceptable."

Most members of Congress don't have a young child – so it can be hard to see how online slop is killing our kids' attention spans. Last week, I voted to keep public broadcasting alive, that way our kids have higher-quality alternatives – and so rural families can access vital emergency alerts.

Hey, Mike. As someone whose wife barely survived an assassination attempt, let me tell you: Your joke isn't funny and you have an entire state to apologize to.

A new day, a new impeachable offense. The conflicts of interest here are... staggering. They would be comical if they were not so impeachable.

Trump attacked LA and this led to the largest single day demonstration in US history. Now he’s attacking every ‘blue’ city. The next march will be over 20 million people.

Sen. Baldwin was one of at least 45 people named on a list of Dem politicians found in the vehicle of the alleged Minnesota shooter.

My god he’s thick

"In our zeal to project power, let’s not forget that the best expression of American strength often comes not from the might of our military, but from the measure of our generosity, the soundness of our word and the reach of our ideals."

No Calgary? ☹️

In 2020, I published a national bestseller about Kash Patel working with the future publisher of Just the News to try to steal the 2020 U.S. presidential election via fake intelligence. Now it’s 2025—and the same two people are spreading dodgy intel with an eye on 2026 and 2028.

I relate. 💯

"Here is how bad things are: We look at the last 48 hours and feel relief. But at any other point in American history, the events of this weekend would be understood as a sign that the country was falling apart." www.thebulwark.com/p/it-was-wor...
