We have an amazing Indivisible community that braved the heat and humidity to protest ICE and their unlawful abductions.

Trump’s Border Czar Secretly Deported Two U.S. Citizen Children Two citizens, 5 and 4, simply vanished when their mother was lured to an immigration appointment, advocates say.

A total of at least five children have now been deported by ICE despite being U.S. citizens.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.

The Secretary is unfit to lead.

So are we still more upset about Diverse, but qualified, yet presumed unqualified hires, than DUI hires?

(Asking for anyone who cares about US National Security)

Pete Hegseth needs to go for the safety of the United States & the allies that we still have.

Every time the Justice Department tries to claim the military isn’t actually banning transgender people, Pete Hegseth tweets that it is.

This is likely to come up at oral arguments at the DC Circuit Court of appeals β€” conveniently scheduled for tomorrow.

Trump administration ramps up farm aid discussions amid tariff fallout Trump’s Agriculture secretary met with the Senate Agriculture Committee chair at the White House complex Thursday.

People realize they wouldn't need to be bailed out if unnecessary tariffs weren't applied in the first place, right?
It's a manufactured problem.

If you aren't registering voters at the #HandsOff events, it's a missed opportunity. These folks are showing up - channel that toward voting.

If Pete Hegseth had even a tiny bit of honor and sense of responsibility, then he would hand in his resignation this morning.

Reading my local paper this morning: farmers see loss of income, people with housing vouchers see rental increases due to cuts, schools worry about loss of funding. Two months in and our country is poorer & worse off than we were in... January.

Collins: Do you think someone should be fired over this?

Buttigieg: Absolutely… if there’s not accountability for a screw up like this, especially from a president who used to fire people on television for sport, what are we even doing here..

This was his reception when he tried to leave and dodge the 200 people in the atrium who couldn't get in the town hall due to capacity.

'Where is Congress?' Sen. Chuck Grassley town hall in Iowa gets heated quickly Speakers asked Iowa GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley to answer questions about veterans' issues, Trump administration policies and federal government cuts.

It's called accountability.And his staff did their best to keep people from attending.

Reading "why" Democrats voted on the CR to advance the govt funding bill, it's like they don't realize since 1/20/25, MAGA Republicans have been working to dismantle the govt & now they have a blank check from Congress to do more damage.
Huge disconnect
