This is not an exaggeration. Alex Jones is allegedly bankrupt but has an infinite well of dark money to pay lawyers, sell pills, and harangue judges and the parents of dead kids. This stay must be lifted so we can take over, and I hope journalists look into where he's getting and stowing his money.

🗳️NEW: Jeffries, Greg Meeks face backlash for TACO-ing on War Powers vote

Democratic leaders, including Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Rep. Greg Meeks (D-NY), are facing criticism after postponing a vote to limit President Donald Trump’s war powers in Iran until mid-April, despite indications the measure now has enough support to pass.

Criticism is coming from progressive advocates, including Demand Progress, whose senior policy adviser told Common Dreams that the delay risks deeper U.S. involvement and more lives lost. Ryan Grim argued Meeks may be backing off precisely because the resolution now has the votes to pass, citing Drop Site’s reporting that some Democrats are reluctant to end a war that politically damages Trump. 

Democratic aides deny the claims, saying they are working to secure votes and ensure members are present, according to Common Dreams.

🎥 Grim discussed the development on Breaking Points earlier today. Watch below.

66% support "We need to hold ICE accountable for violence and abuse and overhaul the agency, but not abolish it entirely"

34% support "We need to abolish ICE and halt all immigration enforcement inside the country"

An official letter from the Kansas Division of Vehicles dated February 23, 2026, with a redacted recipient address. The letter notifies the recipient that due to the enactment of Senate Bill 244, all Kansas driver's licenses and IDs must reflect the holder's sex at birth. It states that the recipient's current credential will become invalid immediately upon the law's publication on February 26, 2026, with no grace period. The recipient is directed to surrender their current ID to receive a new one matching their sex assigned at birth. The document concludes with instructions on how to appeal the notice if received in error, along with contact information for the department.
