Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

Tim Walz: "It's almost unimaginable that he's got Milei in there, giving him $20 billion, so that they can undercut us and China can buy their soybeans from them. And now China has learned they can replace our markets."

To be fair, President Biden initiated the ceasefire but it was challenging because Netanyahu wanted Trump to win the election. www.bbc.com/news/article...

There’s no real justice for what happened at Sandy Hook. Nothing can make that kind of pain right. But for the families who’ve carried that loss for over a decade, this Supreme Court decision is something close to peace or at least, vindication.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Jason Houser, former ICE Chief of Staff: “This Isn’t Crisis Response. It’s Crisis Construction.”

"Immigration enforcement has become the administration’s primary political weapon — not to solve problems, but to manufacture fear, provoke outrage and stage an illusion of control."

I had planned to stay out of the Maine Senate race for a while and respectfully consider the competing visions of both major candidates.

But I can’t do that now.
