BREAKING: We’re suing the Trump administration over the expected unlawful and unprecedented invocation of the Alien Enemies Act. This is the same policy used during WWII to justify the internment of people of Japanese ancestry.

Growing number of experts say that Trump is providing Russia with intelligence against Ukraine. Russian forces in Kursk miraculously had extremely precise coordinates for Ukrainian troop locations, logistics and ammo depots in Kursk after Trump cut off aid. A day before Russia was on the back foot.

Trump's cutting of Ukraine's access to intelligence feeds is already inflcting a catastrophic loss of life at the front. And today, North Koreans are pouring over the border for the first time. Americans will never be forgiven for this. eutoday.net/us-intellige...

From The Atlantic interview w Elissa Slotkin: "After her speech, the senator... headed down the street to a Teamster bar, and Slotkin told me the highest praise they hoped to hear from the owner and his patrons was: 'That sounded pretty normal.'" Huh, that about says it all.

We are working on launching an ALT DOGE website. It will soon feature a team page listing all of Elon’s staffers, our own wall of receipts (tracking the money he’s taking from America), and a section to help Americans keep tabs on the false claims on Doge’s website—which now exceed 52%.

Re Slotkin: Respond to a coup with a moderate who soft pedals the unprecedented crisis we are in? Did anyone get the message that we are in imminent danger of losing our democracy? We need more Al Greens! Slotkin one of 5 Dems who voted the most to confirm DTs cabinet nominees. Pathetic.

This current Social Security riff by Trump is completely debunked 100% total made-up BS. No president has EVER lied this baldly from the podium. And Vance, Johnson, and the whole GOP just nod and go along with it.

US Rep Al Green removed by Trump's Nazi while others sat and watched or jeer at him. He stood up to Trump and told him he had no mandate to disrupt Medicaid for millions of people. Make a list of which politicians you are going to keep. So far it's a short list. #3E #SOTU

Zelensky is the clear hero in the staged horror show I watched. Unwavering under extraordinarily difficult circumstances. Trump's supporters watched a high school drama. One where bullies high-five each other for making fun of someone's outfit. And where no one cares about the consequences.

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white retired Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

Let's say their names: * General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK * Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE * Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE All replaced by less qualified white guys.
