Happy birthday to the United States Navy. For 250 years, our sailors have served our nation with honor, dignity, and courage. The Navy holds a special place in my heart having served alongside incredible men and women for 34 years following in the footsteps of my father and grandfather.

Re-sharing clip of my interview with Yehuda Cohen whose son was released today. He shared in March that Netanyahu was the reason his son was still in captivity: "He's using the war, he's using the hostages situation to continue the war, and he's using the war to sustain his power."

Interesting, given Comey never uttered those words in his 2020 testimony. He said “I stand by my testimony” (from 2017). This might be the basis for Comey’s lawyer mentioning the Bronston defense, as I explained on yesterday’s Breakdown: www.youtube.com/live/8oJvw7F...

In new court filing, Justice Dept details more of its allegations in its criminal case against James Comey:"

"Count One alleges that the defendant made a false statement to the Senate Judiciary Committee when he denied that he authorized someone at the FBI to be an anonymous source in news reports"

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes.

Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

Will lure of federal dollars prompt changes to aid rural health care in SC?

If South Carolina wants its piece of a $50 billion rural health care grant, it may need to comply with policies backed by the Trump administration.

Hoping the peace deal in Gaza holds. Glad to see hostages released. But now there must be accountability for the genocide to deter others from doing same. Netanyahu and all who planned and executed the genocide against Palestinian Christians and Muslims must stand trial for crimes against humanity.

Trump and GOP leaders attacks on No Kings Day is yet again more evidence they do NOT get what it means to be an American. Trump and today's GOP leaders want us to bow down to "King Trump." It's never happening. Baked into the DNA of being an American is not bowing to a King--it's defeating him!
