"The veteran said he saw volunteering as an ICE observer as another way of serving his country. 'It’s the most American thing to do: not to be scared of people trying to scare you... This is a pivotal moment we’ll be asked about by our kids, "Where were you?" www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

They say they’re monitoring ICE arrests. Feds say they’re breaking the law.
The fatal shooting of Renée Good last week, as ICE officers and residents faced off on a Minneapolis street here, has brought new attention to ICE monitoring.

I stand 💯 with Senator Mark Kelly.
Sen. Kelly: Pete Hegseth is coming after what I earned through my twenty-five years of military service, in violation of my rights as an American, as a retired veteran, and as a United States Senator whose job is to hold him—and this or any administration—accountable. His unconstitutional crusade against me sends a chilling message to every retired member of the military: if you speak out and say something that the President or Secretary of Defense doesn’t like, you will be censured, threatened with demotion, or even prosecuted.

Every servicemember knows military rank is earned, not given. It's earned through the risks you take, the sacrifices you and your family make, the leadership you display, and the respect you earn from the superiors who recommend you for promotion. From the moment I drove through the gates of Naval Air Station Pensacola, to when I was shot at over Iraq and Kuwait, to when I landed Space Shuttle Endeavour on its last mission, I gave everything I had to this country and I earned my rank of Captain, United States Navy.

Now, Pete Hegseth wants our longest-serving military veterans to live with the constant threat that they could be deprived of their rank and pay years or even decades after they leave the military just because he or another Secretary of Defense doesn’t like what they’ve said. That’s not the way things work in the United States of America, and I won’t stand for it.

In 1986, at just 22 years old, I took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. I have fulfilled that oath every day since, but I never expected that I would have to defend it against a Secretary of Defense or President. But I’ve never shied away from a fight for our country, and I won’t shy away from this one. Because our freedom of speech, the separation of powers, and due process are not just words on a page, they are bedrock principles of our democracy that has lasted 250 years and will last 250 more as long as patriotic Americans are willing to stand up for…

Hey American farmers, Trump just doubled Argentina's bailout from $20 billion to $40 billion. That's the same Argentina that, because of Trump's tariffs, has now supplanted ALL of America's soybean sales to China. Trump sold you out – then gave the guy who benefited an extra $40 billion gift.

Pam Bondi’s evasiveness and defensiveness during Senate hearing Tuesday when asked about Jeffrey Epstein are what prosecutors call “consciousness of guilt.” In this case, she is guilty of covering up for those involved in Epstein sex ring. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/pam-bondi-...

Pam Bondi just reminded us that she's part of the Jeffrey Epstein cover up

Feel like I’m going insane with the revisionist history that Charlie Kirk fostered open debate. He chilled speech and his targeting of professors for wrongthink led to threats, harassment, and being forced out of their jobs. His legacy is chilling speech right now, about him

New ICE data show that the court order banning profiling reduced ICE arrests in LA by 66%! In other words, ICE is effectively admitting that TWO THIRDS of LA arrests were unconstitutional profiling. Did they admit this to the court? NO! They lied to the courts...
