The Senate just passed $9 billion in cuts targeting public media and foreign aid. Because nothing says “small government” like gutting information access and global support. It’s not budgeting; it’s silencing. Watch the House next.

Trump says he didn’t write a lewd note to Epstein with a naked doodle. But the fact that this even has to be denied? That’s the real #ThisWeekInWTF moment. If this is the hill, we’re already deep in the valley.

Cannabis farm worker in California dies day after chaotic federal immigration raid The manager of one farm, Edgar Rodriguez, a U.S. citizen, said he was handcuffed, thrown to the ground and had his arm twisted behind his back after he asked to see a warrant.

Update: one of the injured workers has died from head trauma. Tear-gas, rubber bullets, now a fatality...over an immigration warrant at a licensed grow. Hard to call this “routine.” Full story: www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Federal agents use force during immigration raid at two California farms Immigration and Customs Enforcement responded to protesters with chemical munitions

ICE, CBP, even the National Guard stormed two California cannabis farms...armored trucks, tear gas, rubber bullets, kids choking, a congressman locked out. They call it a “routine check.” It looks like farm-labor theatre in riot gear.

First immigration detainees arrive at 'Alligator Alcatraz' in Florida Everglades The first group of immigrants has arrived at a new detention center deep in the Florida Everglades that officials have dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz,” a spokesperson for Republican state Attorney General James Uthmeier told The Associated Press.

Welcome to “Alligator Alcatraz”: 100-degree tents, spoiled sandwiches, no showers, worship denied, cables sparking in floodwater. Officials shrug while detainees beg for water. Freedom shouldn’t taste like swamp water.

The EPA just got roasted by a federal court... for still using REAGAN-ERA pollution rules. Yes, 1980s tech is regulating 2025 water waste.

“Updating standards every 30+ years” is bold strategy, Cotton.

Sen. Alex Padilla handcuffed after forced removal from DHS press conference Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was in Los Angeles as part of a broad federal response to public demonstrations against immigration raids.

The Speaker lied. There’s video. Senator Padilla was handcuffed for asking questions. DHS is off the rails, and the entire GOP is cosigning it. This isn’t policy...it’s a coup in slow motion.
