Q: Do you believe people who committed violence against Capitol police officer on January 6 should be eligible for compensation from this DOJ fund, and are you or your family members going to be seeking compensation from that fund? TRUMP: Yeah. It will all be dependent on a committee

LMAO Trump is still claiming that Iran "wants to make a deal," and threatening to blow the country up if they don't. It's just pathetic at this point.

Per NBC: Three adult victims and two suspects -- believed to be 17 and 19 -- were killed at the Islamic Center of San Diego. The suspects appeared to have died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds. One of the victims is a mosque security guard who played a “pivotal” role in preventing more bloodshed.

93% of voters say federal agents who violate our rights must be held accountable, but a loophole in the law makes that nearly impossible. Congress must pass legislation to ensure people can sue federal officers for violating our rights, just like we can for state and local officials.
