JUST IN: This Is A Pretty Stunning Observation.

Trump is celebrating a new Iran agreement centered on a commitment that Iran will never obtain a nuclear weapon.

According to ABC's Jonathan Karl, that same commitment appeared in the very first paragraph of President Obama's nuclear deal more than a decade ago.

Think about that.

First came Obama's agreement.

Then Trump tore it up.

Now Trump is celebrating an agreement built around the same core promise.

ZELENSKYY: War will stop if Russia decides to stop. I understand what Russians and Americans discussed in Anchorage. Putin's lying to Trump. It's a mistake to negotiate about Ukraine without Ukraine, especially for U.S. We're ready to stop the war, but won't leave our territory.

FBI shows up to interrogate a U.S. citizen at his house—for writing an anti-ICE social media post.

"This is about comments that you posted online," said agent.

Orders homeowner to stop recording—refuses to even tell him which comments.

Agent wearing unique World Cup uniform to indicate he is currently assigned to work with ICE on immigration issues.

Craig Brittain has been actively documenting and participating in protests at the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark, New Jersey.

His social media posts videos of demonstrations, conflicts with agents, and calls for the facility’s closure.

Donald Trump's attempt to turn the Kennedy Center into a MAGA trophy just suffered another embarrassing setback.

The Washington National Opera has filed a lawsuit demanding the return of more than $17 million, adding yet another chapter to what has become one of the most chaotic and self-inflicted culture-war disasters of Trump's presidency.

According to the filing, money that was donated for opera performances, artists, and educational programs is now at the center of a major legal fight after Trump's takeover sent the institution into turmoil.

It’s like poetic justice how there’s a double rainbow outside the John Kennedy Center as Trump’s name is being removed.

Who agrees?

It is frankly embarrassing that a sitting U.S. Vice President is unaware of one of the most elementary facts of World War II. Nazi Germany did not negotiate an end to World War II. The war in Europe ended with Germany’s unconditional surrender after total military defeat and the collapse of the regime in May 1945.

HE KNEW HE WORKED FOR A DEMENTED PEDOPHILE BUT INSTEAD OF DOING THE RIGHT THING HE DID EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO PROTECT THE PEDOPHILE🤬 HE USED THE SITUATION ROOM TO COVER UP TRUMP'S EPSTEIN INVOLVEMENT 🤬 REPULSIVE 🤬

[Not Your Average Liberal @NotAvgLiberal]

Trump on tape.

Claiming E. Jean Carroll enjoyed being sexually assaulted by him.

In his own words.

This is the MAGA Leader.

A Fucking Rapist.

[Morgan J. Freeman @mjfree]

🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️ And just like that, Epstein / Trump completely VANISHED from the media.

But a sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump RAPED and threatened to KILL children.

Lets make this viral again & again 👇👇👇

Today has been a very bad day for Donald Trump. And bad days for Trump are good days for America.

SEN. KELLY: How many times have Vance and Rubio been to Ukraine? Zero. Has Trump been to Ukraine? No.

He invited Putin to United States, but he still failed to send anybody at high level in his government to visit Ukraine. Have Kushner or Witkoff been to Ukraine? They have not.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

Days after Republicans gave ICE goons another $70 billion, a U.S. citizen was pinned to the ground and tased while restrained, and witnesses threatened at gunpoint.

These disgusting abuses aren't slowing down.

They're being rewarded.
Don't look away.

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

Trump lies constantly and he is desperate for the Iran war to be over. So desperate that he’s giving Iran 20 times the money Obama did, and getting nothing in return, except an open strait that Iran will charge a “maintenance fee” to all ships. Well done, bozo

Reminder: there would not be a need for assistance if he hadn't put tariffs on Canada or started an illegal war in Iran

Hegseth removed Chappie James's portrait from the Air Force Art Gallery and left the wall empty.

James flew 179 combat missions across two wars. First Black four-star general in US military history.

Curry passed that portrait every day for a decade. When it came down, he retired.
The wall is still empty.

"This Sunday night’s UFC spectacle on the South Lawn...captures something about this moment in our history.

It's vulgar, violent, commercial, grandiose, tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump."

Chris Hayes: The president is rage posting about you. He calls you a loser in life, and he's mad that you wanted to impeach him.

Jamie Raskin: There's a very easy way to not get impeached. Stop committing impeachable offenses. Stop committing high crimes and misdemeanors.
