A Distric Court judge has ruled that Kari Lake was not legally in charge of the US Agency for Global Media, and that actions she took while claiming to be in that role are also not legal, including her attempts to fire people

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

I will say it again: There are no moderate Republicans. There are just proud MAGA and sacred MAGA. The scared ones leave. The proud ones stay.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

A federal judge in DC rules that Kari Lake was not lawfully appointed and that actions she took as the claimed head of USAGM "shall have no force or effect," including last August's RIFs at the Voice of America.

Reporter: Did the US bomb an elementary school and kill 175 people?

Trump: Based on what I’ve seen, it was done by Iran. 

Reporter: Is that true Mr. Hegseth?
Hegseth: We’re investigating. 

Trump: It was done by Iran. They are very inaccurate with their munitions.

Long-delayed Jan. 6 plaque honoring police installed in Capitol at 4 a.m. The memorial honoring officers who defended the Capitol was required by law to be installed by March 2023.

The Jan. 6 plaque honoring police was just installed in the Capitol β€” at 4 a.m.:

Three years since Congress ignored its own deadline, the memorial plaque recognizing the service of law enforcement on Jan. 6 is finally on display in the very building they defended from a mob of Trump supporters.

Iran’s Foreign Minister says Trump derailed a potential path to de-escalation. He says Iran signaled openness to lowering tensions but Trump’s actions β€œalmost immediately killed” that opportunity, warning if he seeks escalation, it’s β€œprecisely what our Armed Forces have long been prepared for.”

Let’s be clear: Any Democrat who votes to fund Trump’s illegal war with Iran is voting for Trump’s illegal war.

We must demand that our Members of Congress oppose ANY and ALL funding for Trump’s illegal war, including voting against any supplemental funding package.
