‼️ Trump’s taxpayer-funded ad campaign is part of an effort to improperly influence an ongoing election as Republicans struggle to keep control of Congress, according to a new DNC lawsuit. “Fundamentally, the ads undermine free and fair elections,” Democrats said: demdock.com/4yeugu6

Trump promised DOGE checks, tariff rebates, and a $5,000 dividend if Republicans hold Congress. Most of it was noise. But $500 checks are quietly going out to ACA enrollees just weeks before the midterms. The fine print may be his most brazen vote-buying scheme yet.

See this ICE agent? He’s a holding a *military assault rifle.* And according to a witness, that‘s the agent who shot a man **while the man was in his car with his 5-year-old kid.** Also, I’m no expert, but i’m pretty sure it’s bananas to hold your phone in one hand & your ASSAULT RIFLE in another

Pretty clear that the Trump admin's "Civil Rights" department is actively seeking to force schools to segregate further and deny more Black students.
The Department’s investigation found that post-SFFA, UCLA Law’s application includes personal statements and essay prompts, which are designed to elicit information about race. And UCLA Law’s admissions staff instructed prospective applicants how to reveal their race in these sections of the application—during race-based recruitment efforts, such as its annual “Diversity Admissions Open House”.

The Department’s analysis revealed that UCLA Law rejected white and Asian applicants who had the same LSAT scores as admitted black and Hispanic applicants. Plainly, lower-scoring white and Asian applicants would have been admitted by UCLA Law if they were black or Hispanic. Further, in 2024 and 2025 (combined), half of the admitted black applicants had LSAT scores that were at or below 90% of the admitted white applicants.
