We cannot let history forget what happens when a federal government uses law enforcement to terrorize innocent people.
 And let me say to any agent or administration official who thinks we've forgotten or that their cruelty will go unchecked: Illinois remembers.

I pressed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent for answers about billions of dollars from Venezuelan oil sales routed through a Qatari bank account and who ultimately has access to those funds. The American people deserve transparency about where this money is going and who is benefiting from it.

Glad 60 Minutes is doing a Jacob Wohl story literally nine years after I reported on that guy. One time he was pretending a scam website he was running wasn't his, so I called the number on the website and it went to his mom's voicemail. Jacob is like training wheels for investigative journalists.

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1971: The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts officially opens its doors and is inaugurated, culminating an initiative that began … in the 1950s? Yes, you read that right. The Kennedy Center got its start during the Eisenhower administration. /1
Rose Kennedy (left) and Senator Edward M. Kennedy (center right) stand in the presidential box alongside family members at the inaugural gala of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Sept. 8, 1971. The Center’s Opera House was filled to capacity, with 2,200 attendees. The high-profile guest list included three of President Kennedy’s sisters (Eunice Shriver, Patricia Lawford and Jean Smith), alongside a crowd of prominent Washington politicians, international diplomats and cultural elites who paid up to $250 per ticket (roughly $1,900 today) to witness the historic premiere. A separate preview performance had been held three days prior on Sept. 5, where an additional 2,200 members of the general public were invited to see the dress rehearsal of Leonard Bernstein’s MASS so that everyday citizens could experience the venue before the formal gala crowd arrived.
