Russia failed to conquer Ukraine. So Trump is handing Putin what he couldn’t win on the battlefield. Territory. Limits on Ukraine’s military. And $300B in assets. Shameful. Dangerous. Unacceptable.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

The President of the United States just publicly called for members of Congress to be executed because they reminded members of the military to uphold their oaths to the Constitution and not obey any illegal orders.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

Chris Murphy on possible military strikes on Venezuela: "It's pretty clear it's just an effort to distract people from the rising prices and the Epstein scandal. No one wants a war with Venezuela ... and by the way, it's wildly illegal."

NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids

NEW: President Trump's pardon of his alleged 2020 co-conspirators was less about shielding them from past crimes, his adversaries say, than about signaling to others that he has their back if he needs them again in 2026 or 2028.

Border Patrol Agents Pose At The Bean For Apparent Photo Op
The photo op came after agents tear-gassed a Little Village street and were spotted in the area numerous times. At the Bean, one agent shouted, "Everyone say, 'Little Village!'"

Just so we're clear: these $2000 cheques are never going to happen. He is floating this because it is likely that SCOTUS will rule his tarriff's illegal.
At that point he can say "I was going to give you $2000 but SCOTUS said no". It's all just another way to to gain support over the constitution.

Trump is 30 points underwater. Dems swept the special elections. People know the GOP is responsible for the shutdown. So the Dem Senators pulled out their big guns... and shot themselves in the foot.
