BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

America First = America Alone Unprecedented: the U.S. is the only country out of 184 to see a drop in international tourism this year. Everyone else is rebounding. We’re projected to lose $12.5 billion in spending—jobs, small businesses, entire communities will feel this.

President Sheinbaum just launched a national program to send 20,000+ nurses and doctors to provide free home care to every elderly and disabled person in Mexico. The U.S. could do this, but won’t. Because here, healthcare isn’t a right. It’s a commodity. And that’s the whole problem. 👇

With redactions lifted, we can see what the government was trying to keep secret: ICE is seeking the addresses of people it is investigating — information that taxpayers entrust the IRS to keep confidential, and that the IRS is bound by law to keep safe. americanoversight.org/heres-what-t...

Musk lashes out at an interviewer for pressing him on DOGE, then attacks Bill Gates. He’s definitely losing it. He also claims Tesla sales are “rebounding,” but the numbers say otherwise. The boycott of Tesla is working.

Democratic Sen. Margaret Hassan has to clarify the meaning of "habeas corpus" to HSS Kristi Noem. This regime is attempting to dismantle The Constitution and/or rewrite it, by dismissing due process within our civil rights. The U.S. has become a "Police State" by definition.

Netanyahu has been given free rein to commit mass murder since Oct 2023. Aided and abetted by the former/ current US govt and, unfortunately, both the former Tory and current Labour govt. Countless beautiful innocent lives lost to greed, cowardice and horrifying inaction. Shame on them all.
