The FBI is expanding its probe to Democratic lawmakers for a video telling troops not to follow illegal orders. These are veterans reminding service members of the law, not traitors, yet the administration is deploying federal investigators like political attack dogs.

The EPA just greenlit pesticides laced with PFAS “forever chemicals” for use on kids’ fruits and veggies. Instead of protecting families, the Trump-run agency is letting chemical companies spray cancer-linked toxins on everything from lettuce to potatoes.

X flipped on a new feature last night that showed where accounts post from. 1000s of MAGA accounts turned out to be based abroad. The official DHS account even showed up as operating out of Israel.
Twenty minutes later, the feature disappeared. When it came back, government accounts were exempt.

In a striking reversal, Donald Trump went from labeling Zohran Mamdani a “communist” and threatening to cut federal funds to embracing the young socialist as he met him in the Oval Office — praising Mamdani’s victory, saying he “thinks he’ll be a great mayor.".

Trump’s so-called “peace” plan for Ukraine? More like appeasement for Putin. Crafted behind closed doors between his envoy Steve Witkoff and Putin’s pals, it demands Kyiv surrender chunks of its own territory, gut its military, and forego NATO.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics is now refusing to release the October jobs report—because the numbers are abysmal. Economists estimate we lost 35,000 to 50,000 jobs, but that’s coming from private models and back-channel guesses since the administration effectively knocked out its own scoreboard.
