WSJ Exclusive: The Trump admin used federal funds from the Department of Homeland Security to finance those controversial pro-Trump ads that started airing on TV. The taxpayer money used to fund the ads came from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Bc the last 30 seconds of this are the best, reminder that @amyklobuchar.com's dad was a sports journalist, which may explain her utter contempt for Schmitt mistaking the Hawks and Hawkeyes.

Again, gas prices spiked in 2022-23 because Russia invaded Ukraine which caused a major disruption in global supply. Then they came down. Biden didn’t cause it. Gas prices rose in 2026 due solely to the stupidity of Trump who started a war in the Middle East.

And, look who is promoting this campaign. Also, there is a name floating around X. No one has any idea if the name of that person is truly this Jane Doe.
Benjamin Ryan @ @benryanwriter • 42m
Journalist Michael Tracey is looking to disclose the identity of
Jane Doe, who filed the lawsuit against seven Cornell men,
alleging they gang raped her in a frat house.

The suit names the men but not the plaintiff.

Should Jane Doe's name be made public? Why or why not?

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

There’s the false accusation from a former state AG who should know better accusing someone of committing a crime based on zero evidence. Then there’s the behavior before, during and after. All of it really shows America what we already knew - Schmitt is scum.
