American Research Group's poll of 1,100 adults shows Trump at 29% approval, and one away from the cool sex number in disapproval.

Todd Blanche wants to be Attorney General. So we checked his résumé. The Epstein file redactions? Just the beginning. That's why we're running a version of this ad on primetime Fox News this week. Tell your Senators to vote no on Blanche.

When Syrian billionaires needed to clear a path for a development project last summer despite U.S. sanctions, a Republican congressman made a suggestion: “Make it a Trump National Golf Course.” The exchange illustrates the blurring of lines between business and family affairs in Trump’s second term.

Syrian Billionaires Needed a Favor in Washington. They Invoked the Trump Name.
The attempt by the Khayyats to influence foreign policy while discussions are underway about potential Trump family deals is an increasingly common feature of the president’s second term.

DHS paid a Russian oligarch, Andrey Sharkov, $130,000,000 for a warehouse in Social Circle, Georgia, a town of 5,000. The Russian paid $29,000,000 for the property in 2023 & last year its assessed value was still $29,000,000. ICE paid 4 TIMES the assessed value for the property. Don Jr kickbacks?

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

Trump's ICE snatched this bright, happy 5-year-old from his driveway. They shipped him 1,300 miles to suffer, without his mother, in a squalid Texas detention center. And now he's growing ill. Democrats are fighting to end this cruelty. Liam is not a criminal. Let him go.

Wow. The front page of tomorrow’s Charlie Hebdo magazine in France.
Underneath the name Charlie Hebdo is a pile of bloodied dead bodies representing US citizens killed by ICE. The pile of bodies are collected in one corner to represent the stars of the US flag and the streaks of blood caused by them being dragged across the ground form the red and white stripes. In the foreground an armed skinhead officer with an ICE vest is dragging his latest victim with multiple gunshots to join the pile. The world is watching in horror.

Videos verified by The New York Times show the man federal agents shot and killed in Minneapolis on Saturday was holding a phone, not a gun, before the agents took him to the ground and shot him. At least 10 shots appear to have been fired within five seconds. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

"I am signing the extradition paperwork to bring this California doctor to justice. Louisiana has a zero tolerance policy for those who subvert our laws, seek to hurt women, and promote abortion. 

"I know Gavin Newsom supports abortion in all its forms, but that doesn’t work in Louisiana. We are unapologetically pro-life.
