“The midterm results will do little to change the way Trump has made the federal government his personal weapon; but voters have a hunger for calling a spade a spade. It’s a cousin to Tim Walz’s 2024 strategy of calling Republicans ‘weird’—except this time we’re calling them desperate clowns.”

DOJ and HSI were both involved per Fox.
The raid started around 6 a.m. with HSI and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) leading the operation. The Department of Justice (DOJ) is also involved in the investigation.
"Today in the Washington, D.C., area,
Homeland Security Investigations executed a judicially authorized search warrant secured by the Department of Justice. This enforcement action is part of an ongoing federal investigation," a DOJ spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum.

9h

This claim is factually and scientifically false. Medication abortion and the lethal agents used in German Nazi extermination camps share no chemical compounds, mechanisms, or ingredients.

At Auschwitz-Birkenau, the SS used Zyklon B, a pesticide that released hydrogen cyanide. Other killing centers used carbon monoxide, while phenol injections were also used to murder prisoners in Auschwitz. They were not part of any abortion pill.

The myth comes from corporate history, not chemistry. Mifepristone (used in medication abortion) was developed in 1980 by French researchers working for the pharmaceutical firm Roussel Uclaf (originally coded RU-486). At that time, the majority owner of Roussel Uclaf was the German chemical and pharmaceutical company Hoechst AG.

Decades earlier, Hoechst AG had been one of the primary chemical manufacturers that merged in 1925 to form the German conglomerate I.G. Farben. During World War II, I.G. Farben held a 42.5% ownership stake in Degesch, the commercial firm that distributed Zyklon B.

When RU-486 was approved and debated internationally in the late 1980s and 1990s, political critics highlighted this corporate lineage, pointing out that Roussel Uclaf's parent company (Hoechst) had once been part of the conglomerate connected to Degesch. Over decades of repetition in online forums and memes, this rhetorical argument about distant corporate history mutated into the false assertion that the pill itself literally contained "the same chemicals."

One day after the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and the National Association of Evangelicals came out against the Pentagon’s plan to livestream an execution, Pope Leo has published a tweet reiterating the Catholic Church’s opposition to the death penalty.
Pope Leo XIV • @Pontifex• •4h

The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption.
