THE HOUSE JUST VOTED TO EXTENDED TPS FOR HAITI!!! Thank you, Rep. Ayanna Pressley for your leadership on this. Proud to help co-lead this effort for our Haitian brothers, sisters, and siblings. What a day.
Tucker Carlson: "It's vile. It begins w/ a promise to use the US military to commit a war crime. Those people who are in direct contact w/ the president need to say 'No. I'll resign. I'll do whatever I can do legally to stop this, bc this is insane. And if given the order, I'm not carrying it out'"
Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.
For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.
Under Trump’s leadership, America First is America isolated and confused on its strategic priorities and alliances.
Dems just had one of their best election nights since Trump returned to the White House. Again.
The results in the battleground states are the latest repudiation from voters of Trump and his agenda and a warning for the GOP heading into the midterms.

Wisconsin liberals have just won another state Supreme Court election, in what is shaping up to be a blowout.
Importantly: Liberals are now sure to hold a majority on this court during the 2028 cycle and through at least 2030.

Trump's inner circle profits from war while everyone else pays the price.
On the one hand, little if any of the content was new.
On the other hand, the fact that he merely regurgitated prior social media posts after a month of war is significant.
NEW: Virginia lawmakers just passed a bill that'd forbid sheriffs and local police from contracting with ICE, if ICE doesn't say it'll follow state laws and agree to let its agents be prosecuted.
Everyone seems to agree that'd spell the end of ICE contracts in Virginia:

Remember: It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
As we head into the fourth week of the Iran war, the American people - and our troops - deserve clear, accountable, and honest leadership.
We're getting the opposite.
So far the war on Iran has cost $25 billion.
That's $1 billion per day.
$41,666,667 per hour.
$11,574 per second.
Thousands of lives lost.
People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.
What happened when Kansas tried a version of Trump's SAVE Act? Chaos

What happened to "America First"?
Gomez to Gabbard and Racliffe: "If the president can just ignore what you're doing, why do you even have a job? Why even advise him? You're saying the president can say tomorrow China is an imminent threat no matter what the intelligence says, and then he can take his own action."
Starmer: "We will not be drawn into the wider war ... we cannot allow the war in the Gulf to turn into a windfall for Putin"
It’s still we the ppl. We must rely and trust each other.
Requiring people to shell out for passports and birth certificates to “solve” a problem that doesn’t exist is a modern-day version of what they used to do down South. It must be stopped. trib.al/tU0uxnD
Jeffries: "The administration -- without any plan, any objective, any exit strategy -- has gotten us into this reckless war of choice in the Middle East. So the notion they would come up here and ask for additional money is beyond the pale at this moment."
Screenshot of an X post by Adam Cochran reacting to Hillary Clinton’s deposition, suggesting she outperformed questioners. The embedded C-SPAN post quotes Clinton saying Trump was held civilly liable for sexual assault and that the behavior fits a pattern. Below is a video still of Clinton seated at a hearing table, gesturing with her hands, with a lower-third banner referencing a House Oversight Committee investigation.
It did not go as planned.
This is what Donald Trump used to say about war.
Trump highlighted deeply emotional stories of pain and stories of triumph. The question isn’t whether those stories matter; they absolutely do. The question is whether they were used to illuminate policy solutions or to create an emotional backdrop that bolsters his weakening political standing.
