President Trump said Tuesday that the U.S. could step in to disarm Hamas — “quickly and perhaps violently” — if the organization did not do so itself, a potential vulnerability in the ceasefire agreement.

Trump says U.S. will disarm Hamas if it does not do so itself

Hamas has not yet publicly agreed to or signed anything that specifies how it would disarm, but Trump suggested he had received verbal assurances the group would.

Really disgusting stuff. Remember the apple never falls far from the tree, so these young people learned this hate from their parents. Sad. 😞

Great job, Republicans. You’ve raised little Nazi racists to spread your vitriol.

They sent this man death threats by mail because he was on the cusp of breaking a white man's home run record. He used their hate mail for inspiration to go on and break that record.

It was Hank Aaron's big "f**k you" to all of those racists.🖕🏾😝

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?

If you can’t sell your soybeans because of Trump’s tariffs after Argentina stepped in and took your customers, you can take solace that the guy you voted for also just gave $20 billion of your tax dollars to the country that is bankrupting you.

Money already approved for projects that Trump is using the shutdown to defund comes from less than 3% of Republican districts, compared with Democratic districts.

News outlets are right to not play along with the Defense Department directive that tries to force reporters to only publish information officially authorized by the department.

This is government censorship, plain and simple.

Media outlets, including Fox News and CNN, refuse to sign Pentagon's press access rules | CNN Business

The Pentagon is telling beat reporters to sign restrictive new rules by Tuesday or surrender their press passes by Wednesday. Many news organizations are rejecting the ultimatum and saying they will not sign.

Trump labeling "antifa" a domestic terrorist group and then smearing Democratic organizations as antifa is right from fascist playbook. Mussolini and Hitler both criminalized opposing political parties on way to establishing one party rule. My article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-is-n...

Trump is now working to secure one party rule--just like Mussolini and Hitler did

History is screaming at us!
