Earlier this year leaked video showed the inhumane conditions at the Baltimore ICE Holding Facility.

Today we conducted an unannounced oversight visit.

Here's some of what we learned:

There’s never enough money for schools or healthcare or veterans.

But there’s always enough money to bomb people on the other side of the world.

We can support the democracy movement in Iran without bombing innocent schoolchildren and sending our American troops off to die.

Instead of lowering prices for you, Republicans are busy dreaming up new ways to make the rich even richer.

Here’s their latest idea: sidestepping Congress to hand another giant tax cut to the top 1%.

Reporter: You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. But you're the only person in your government saying this. Why?

Trump: Because I just don't know enough about it.

California is stepping up as the Trump admin undermines public health and puts lives at risk

@governor.ca.gov is defending science: launching the West Coast Health Alliance and partnering with global health leaders like the @who.int as vaccine guidance is rolled back and research funding is slashed

GOP group targets Black voters with mailer comparing Virginia redistricting to Jim Crow The Virginia Legislative Black Caucus endorsed the redistricting effort Monday and condemned the imagery in the mailer.

NEW: A GOP-tied group targeted Black Virginians with manipulative mailers on the state’s redistricting special election, claiming “Just like Jim Crow, [Democrats] want to silence your voice.”

While it provided no detailed information on the measure, it did depict Ku Klux Klan imagery.

Other presidents care about things like dead children, terrorism, radicalization, expense to taxpayers, economic downsides, global destabilization, preemptive attacks on- and invasions of allies... fuck all that shit, right Donald?

Eric Trump and Donald Trump, Jr. are acquiring a drone company that is seeking to meet Pentagon demand after Trump banned the use of Chinese drones.

We’re barely a week into Trump’s war and already his family has found a way to cash in.

Everything is for sale.

As an IR professor, it's depressing that this is outperforming all others as the best theory of US foreign policy

"He wants to be very constructive" -- moments after announcing that he's taking sanctions off Russia without mentioning Russia by name, Trump says "I had a very good call with President Putin" today

unsurprising. the us is the senior power here but it's not calling the shots and seems to have no visibility or veto on actions which may have some military logic but which weigh heavily on civilians.

Hakeem Jeffries won't commit to blocking additional Iran war funding The House minority leader said Democrats will "cross that bridge when we get to it" but added that President Donald Trump has so far failed to justify his "war of choice."

In January, Jeffries declined to whip against DHS funding. Then DHS murdered Alex Pretti, and Dems had to play catchup to the politics. Now Jeffries won't commit to whip against Trump's war. This isn't rocket science - unify Dems against bad and unpopular things! www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

@lindseypatrickwright is running against him.

Just killed a man's whole family and accidentally installed him as leader of Iran. We created Super Vengeance Boy and are just assuming he'll leave us alone.

Deaths in ICE detention are horrifying.

But the Trump Administration isn’t even notifying families—or foreign governments—when someone dies in their custody.

Inhumane incompetence.

The Pentagon is swimming in cash after the last GOP budget. They can’t even pass an audit for their spending. The bill was loaded up with so many earmarks the Pentagon doesn’t even know how to spend it all. But now Trump wants more. No amount of military spending for the war machine is enough.

The White House released a photo of Trump and Vance without their heads bowed during the dignified transfer ceremony.

Pete Hegseth and military officials are bowing their heads in the photo.

This is not true—driver’s licenses aren’t acceptable under the SAVE Act without additional proof of citizenship. The fact that they keep doing this sleight of hand should make clear that the SAVE Act is not something that “every American gets”

I understand that there are a lot of folks on the left who instinctively recoil from religious language, and with good reason given its use by the right.

But please listen to this, and focus on how he's trying to realign "Christian values" so they align with and advance progressive policy goals.

Statement from Attorney General Jay Jones on Misleading Mailers Targeting Black Voters

Richmond, VA – Attorney General Jay Jones released the following statement regarding deceptive mailers being sent to Black voters about Virginia’s redistricting referendum.

“As Virginia’s first Black Attorney General, I take very seriously the history that is being invoked in these mailers. Reports indicate that a group opposing the redistricting referendum has sent materials to Black voters that misuse imagery from the Civil Rights Movement and even invoke Jim Crow while falsely suggesting the measure threatens Black representation.

My parents and grandparents lived through the reality of Jim Crow in Virginia. They experienced firsthand what it meant when the law and the political system were used to silence Black voices. That history is not a political prop, and it should never be exploited in a misleading attempt to confuse voters.

Virginians deserve honest information about the choices before them. Invoking the pain and sacrifice of the civil rights movement while spreading misleading claims about this referendum disrespects the very people who fought to secure the right to vote and have their voices heard.”

Don’t worry, America. The House Republican majority is working hard for you at Trump’s golf resort in Miami this week.

Six years ago this week, an unplanned disaster engulfed the world. Trump catastrophically mismanaged it. The economy collapsed and 1m+ died.

Now reelected, he’s on the verge of topping that, only this time the disaster is entirely of his own making.

The results may be even worse.

“I didn’t vote for THIS,” say the manosphere podcasters who simply had no way of knowing that Trump would lie about being a populist to get into office and then govern like a autocratic lunatic once in power, other than the fact that he did it for 4 entire years before that.

We're in uncharted territory- if WTI crude holds these gains tomorrow- the current rise of 29.9% or $27.16/bbl would be its largest single day price jump- in both percent and amount- ever. Ever. EVER.
