This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

I don’t know how else to say it…

Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.

This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.

The vote failed big, 19/31.

The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!

Stephen Miller is to blame for the evil ICE is doing. Trump is to blame for listening to Miller. The Republican party is to blame for supporting Trump. MAGA voters are to blame for re-electing Trump. There's enough blame for all of them to share.

ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

🚨 Today, I formally introduced articles of impeachment against Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

RFK Jr. has turned his back on science and the safety of the American people. Michiganders cannot take another day of his chaos.

TY WaPo for crediting our @propublica.org investigation on conservative activist and election denier Gregg Phillips in 2023.

Phillips has a questionable history of managing nonprofit donations. Now, he's been tapped for a FEMA role in Trump admin.

Donald Trump’s envoys have given Volodymyr Zelenskyy days to respond to a proposed peace deal requiring Ukraine to accept territorial losses in exchange for unspecified US security guarantees, according to officials briefed on the conversations.

Judge orders Maxwell evidence unsealed but only after redacting victims' identities. Meanwhile, Trump already released other Epstein files with victims' names exposed but perpetrators protected. Money decides who gets privacy. Survivors are exhibits, buyers stay anonymous. Always.

🔥 @emmavigeland.bsky.social : “I’m a believer in MEDICARE FOR ALL. The ACA expanded coverage but didn’t solve everything, we need a single-payer system.

(Also: Trump covered up the Epstein files, listen to Republican women in Congress when they say this administration doesn’t respect women)”

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.
There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact, most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

The DOJ has confirmed that President Trump blocked the release of more than 4,100 documents requested as part of a lawsuit brought by injured January 6 police officers.

With this action, the president is directly blocking a case alleging that he helped to fuel the deadly riot. trib.al/o6IVFjF
