The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.

15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

White House: the witness’sΒ allegations are β€œcompletely baseless” and β€œbacked by zero credible evidence.”

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

There’s a New Sheriff in Town. But Buffalo Area Jails Remain as Dangerous as Ever. - Bolts Despite federal oversight, elections, and promises of reform from a new sheriff, little has changed for people detained in Erie County jails.

Did you read about the blind refugee who was left to die in the Buffalo region?

NY’s AG is reportedly investigating the Buffalo sheriff’s office over this: www.investigativepost.org/2026/03/06/n...

We at Bolts reported on the frightening record of people dying under this office last year:

Tesla sued after Austin shooting suspect allegedly assaulted co-worker A 65-year-old woman says the automaker ignored warning signs before Ndiaga Diagne, the suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting, assaulted her. She sued Thursday.

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter
