Another near miss at DCA. This time, a military aircraft carrying the president. Congress must pass the bipartisan ROTOR Act that takes necessary steps to improve air safety.

Todd Blanche is not qualified to be AG. He’s shown time and time again that his loyalty is to Trump alone – not promoting justice for all Americans. I will be voting NO.

Whatever false claims Trump makes tonight, remember the facts: he’s been publicly saying for months that he wants to interfere in our elections. Tonight’s speech is designed to help him justify that. Do not fall for it.

Tomorrow night, Trump is going to use a primetime address to stoke misleading claims about our elections in order to justify interfering in our midterms. It’s on all of us to follow the facts and not accept his constant stream of misdirections and lies.

Some things just shouldn’t be mocked. Trump comparing himself to Christ and his open insulting of Pope Leo is deeply offensive to so many Christians across the globe.

BREAKING: I join the Hungarian people in celebrating the crushing defeat of Orbán – a ringing testament to the power of democracy over autocracy. While we deal with Trump’s disastrous leadership, let’s find strength & hope in the power of the people over horrible strongman leaders.

Good news that the execrable Kristi Noem has been fired, but Trump should really be firing Stephen Miller, the primary engineer of the vile ethnic reengineering agenda and murderously violent civic tensions that are sucking all of them into a bottomless political sinkhole, Trump included.

We have a President who can’t get over the fact that he lost in 2020… and sees the writing on the wall with his plummeting approval rating. Is he preparing to massively intervene in the midterms?

Donald Trump called for Republican officials to “take over” voting procedures in 15 states. People of all political parties need to be able to stand up and say this can’t happen.

And just like that, it’s out of the news. Go look at every major news outlet this morning and tell me if you see this story. The most staggering corruption in U.S. history and poof. I can’t find it in news or opinion in any. Maybe we should check which email server they used for the bribe.

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

They don’t want you to realize that the House has been on a weeks-long paid vacation because they’re scared of a vote to release the Epstein Files. What are they trying to hide?
