Notice that Trump is calling a peace deal with Iran a "transaction," which leads me to emphasize again that Jared and Witkoff have no business being in the thick of things.

NEW: We obtained the government’s settlement agreement with Michael Flynn.
As previously reported, DOJ agreed to pay $1.25 million to settle Flynn’s claims that he was wrongfully prosecuted.
But docs suggest a separate settlement could be in the works: www.lawfaremedia.org/article/u.s....
Again, every Democrat needs to brand their COLLEAGUES with this failure too.
The Republican Party, from top to bottom, are giving adjudged terrorists the ability to rearm.
The GOP is pro-terrorist and need to be called on it.
In his second term, Trump seems even less restrained and more incoherent at times. He uses more profanity, speaks longer, regularly makes comments rooted in fantasy rather than fact, wanders off into odd tangents and shocks even allies with his outbursts. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/13/u...
When the White House released their ridiculous “weaponization of government” report, claiming the Biden administration discriminated against conservatives, the press lapped it up
Meanwhile today the Trump DOJ looked to vacate convictions against seditionists and Tulsi Gabbard did this
Can confirm
BREAKING on MS NOW:
Tulsi Gabbard just referred the whistleblower whose complaint led to the first impeachment of Trump — and the Inspector General who deemed the complaint "credible" — for possible criminal prosecution by the Trump Justice Department.
NEW: The Justice Department has moved to erase the seditious conspiracy convictions of the key Oath Keepers and Proud Boys leaders who played central roles in the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol — including Stewart Rhodes, Ethan Nordean, Joe Biggs, etc.

“The past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became the truth.”
CNN exposes a global “online rape academy” that teaches men how to drug and rape women without detection. Over 62 million men attended in February alone.
Barrera said her husband said the smell of human feces in the toilet caused a fellow detainee to vomit and, in turn, created a chain of people vomiting. She said her husband is asthmatic and has not received medication to treat his condition. The lack of medicine and the stress of the overcrowded holding cell has left him short of breath and teetering on the edge of an asthma attack, Barrera said. ICE did not immediately respond to questions on April 10 about the conditions of the Mesa or Phoenix facilities. After the publication of this article, Barrera told The Arizona Republic her husband was transferred to the ICE facility at San Luis Regional Detention Center at about midnight. The San Luis Regional Detention Center is in Southwestern Arizona and has the capacity to hold 700 people.
This is horrific. A U.S. citizen describes the facility in Arizona that her husband was brought to while he waited to be put on a deportation flight. Dozens of people were crammed into tiny cells, there was a "chain of people vomiting" from filthy toilets, no medical care, and only one meal per day.
This is low on the list of Trump outrages, but it’s completely unethical for him to make important government announcements exclusively on a social media platform he owns. It’s a perversion of the presidency to put cash in Trump’s pocket.
BALINT: Are you trying to get revenge on states that did not vote for your boss?
VOUGHT: What's interesting about your question is Joe Biden--
BALINT: Oh, for goodness' sake!
Something like this will have to happen in this country once Trumpism is defeated. In the absence of accountability, the world will rightly assume that it will happen again.
ICE agents shot another driver -- on Tues.
He had just asked to call his wife.
They shot him six times. One bullet his jaw.
Now he can't speak and has been mostly unconscious.

Opinion) Constitutionality of the Presidential Records Act The Presidential Records Act is unconstitutional because it exceeds Congress's enumerated and implied powers and aggrandizes the Legislative Branch at the expense of the constitutional independence and autonomy of the Executive. April 1, 2026 MEMORANDUM OPINION FOR THE COUNSEL TO THE PRESIDENT You have asked whether the Presidential Records Act of 1978 ("PRA" or "Act") is constitutional. We conclude that it is not. The PRA is unconstitutional for two independent but interlocking reasons: It exceeds Congress's enumerated and implied powers, and it aggrandizes the Legislative Branch at the expense of the constitutional independence and autonomy of the Executive. "Every law enacted by Congress must be based on one or more of its powers enumerated in the Constitution," United States v. Morrison, 529 U.S. 598, 607 2000), or "such implied powers as are necessary and proper to carry into effect the enumerated powers," Carter v. Carter Coal Co., 298 U.S. 238, 291 (1936). And congressional attempts to regulate the Presidency directly raise heightened separation of powers concerns. See The Constitutional Separation of Powers Between the President and Congress, 20 Op. O.L.C. 124, 126-29 (1996) ("Separation of Powers"). The PRA exceeds the oversight power because it serves no identifiable and valid legislative purpose. It exceeds any preservation power because Congress cannot preserve presidential records merely for the sake of posterity. It exceeds Congress's regulatory power over statutory agencies because it purports to regulate a constitutional office-the Presidency— that Congress did not create and that Congress cannot abolish. It exceeds the spending power, because that power allows Congress to incentivize outcomes with federal funding, not to directly regulate coordinate branches of government. And it exceeds Congress's power to assist in the execution of the powers vested in coordinate branches because it restri…

Senator Chris Murphy, "The Strait of Hormuz was open before the war began"

The Trump admin tried to use emergency rulemaking to erase the Board of Immigration Appeals, requiring that basically all appeals (which cost $1,000 to file!) be summarily dismissed without any review.
Thanks to our @immcouncil.org legal team and others, the rule is now BLOCKED!
It's bad the president is completely clueless, but even worse that he's being influenced by his failson-in-law who doesn't actually hold a government role at all.
Is he getting tips from cabbies, like Tom Friedman, too?
They've now killed four people -- three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national. They've shot several more.
They've lied about all of them. They haven't shaded the truth. They haven't "misled" us. They've brazenly, knowingly lied while in possession of the evidence disproving their lies.
Coming to you live on a resentful Friday night: Withholding a vote from Kamala because she didn’t pass your purity test on Israel/Gaza was equivalent to voting for Trump.
1/2 Mullin cannot be Acting Secretary of DHS. While in the Senate, he cannot hold office in the executive branch. (U.S. Const., Art. I, Sec. 6.)

Mullin is a 2020 election denier who supports the SAVE act vigorously. He also voted against certifying the vote to keep Joe Biden out of office.
He will do everything that he can to subvert the election process and keep the Democrats from taking back power
Mullin? He cheered ICE gunning down Renee Good, challenged a union President to fight in Congress and pushed deporting American babies. trump's installing a violence-loving bully to crush dissent and immigrants. Senate: Block this fascist thug

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment.
Here’s what experts say you need to know.
The big picture: Hegseth told Amodei in a tense meeting on Tuesday that the Pentagon will either cut ties and declare Anthropic a "supply chain risk," or invoke the Defense Production Act to force the company to tailor its model to the military's needs. Why it matters: The Pentagon wants to punish Anthropic as the feud over AI safeguards grows increasingly nasty, but officials are also worried about the consequences of losing access to its industry-leading model, Claude. "The only reason we're still talking to these people is we need them and we need them now. The problem for these guys is they are that good," a Defense official told Axios ahead of the meeting. Anthropic has said it is willing to adapt its usage policies for the Pentagon, but not to allow its model to be used for the mass surveillance of Americans or the development of weapons that fire without human involvement. Anthropic's Claude is the only AI model currently used for the military's most sensitive work.
There's a lot going on.
But it deserves FAR MORE ATTENTION that Whiskey Pete is going to seize the means of AI production so he can 1) engage in mass surveillance of Americans and 2) shoot without human intervention.
Dystopias this bad would be deemed unrealistic.

The US Justice Department withheld testimony that Donald Trump sexually abused a girl when she was 13 or 14 - according to a source who viewed unredacted Epstein files.
This is the worst scandal in US history and should be the biggest news story on the planet right now.
