Pete Hegseth’s tattoos are the ones that white nationalists get. Federal law enforcement know these symbols well. Hegseth was banned from national guard duty at Biden’s inauguration for those tattoos. The Senate should consider this disqualifying for a nominee for Secretary of Defense…

The city of Monterey, California, has released a statement confirming there was a police sexual assault investigation involving Trump’s pick to lead the Pentagon, Fox News personality Pete Hegseth.

Chancellor Scholz told me that he planned to call Putin. His call, in my opinion, opens Pandora's Box. There may now be other conversations and phone calls. Just a lot of words.

And this is exactly what Putin has long sought. It is critical for him to weaken his isolation, as well as Russia's isolation, and to hold mere talks that will lead nowhere. He has been doing this for decades.

This has allowed Russia to avoid making any changes to its policies, effectively doing nothing, which has ultimately led to this war. We understand all the current challenges and we know what to do. And we want to make it clear: there will be no “Minsk-3”; we need real peace.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz on Tulsi Gabbard: "There's no question I consider her someone who is likely a Russian asset."

[Rep. Dan Goldman @RepDanGoldman]

This is unacceptable. We cannot have our cabinet secretaries overseeing our most sensitive information go without background checks.

@SenatorDurbin should immediately request a background check for all nominees from the FBI while he is still Chair of the Judiciary Committee.

Popok: When Special Counsel Jack Smith issues his report on the Trump cases, I implore Merrick Garland to release them to the public or we will never see it.

This is GOP Senator Dr. Bill Cassidy. He will be the next chair of the Senate Health Committee that oversees Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s confirmation. He previously stood up to Trump in 2021 by voting to impeach him.

RETWEET to demand that @SenBillCassidy oppose RFK Jr!

🚨NEW: GOP Senator Susan Collins has announced she is running for re-election. Collins is not the moderate she once was. We need a Democrat that can beat her and truly represent Maine.

RETWEET if you think former Ambassador Susan Rice should challenge Collins!

Just an appreciation Tweet for @Lawrence who just keeps fighting every day, with incredible passion and intelligence. The highlight of my work these past few years has been my time on his show, airing out the stuff that matters.

Hannity praising RFK JR tonight. During the election, Hannity ran segments attacking him with captions like “extremism exposed”

@maddenifico @RoyCooperNC are you auditing the 360,000 Trump only votes? Should be pretty easy to do.

I'm not a conspiracist, but what happened in North Carolina is weird as fuck. 😳👇

BREAKING: Trump’s team met with Peter Hegseth over newly discovered sexual assault allegations.

Another nomination that could be dead in the water.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

This morning began, as always, with a report from Commander Syrskyi. Not just the Donetsk region but also the Kupiansk direction—our warriors there have performed incredibly effectively.

I am grateful to all of them for their resilience and for eliminating the occupiers, including on the southern fronts and in the Kursk operation.

I am proud of all our people and every unit holding their positions, providing Ukraine with the opportunity to convince the world of one fundamental truth: humanity must prevail. This is what Ukraine is fighting for.

Elon Musk just did the thing Mike Flynn was indicted for lying about.

[Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸 @jimstewartson]

My fellow Americans,
Today the federal government has taken bold action to prevent an existential threat to the homeland. The FBI, in cooperation with DOJ, has executed a series of raids on people engaged in illegal cooperation with our foreign adversaries.

My administration has also undertaken a massive investigation into the results of the election — not just the results, but how the American people were systematically lied to in a way that benefited our enemies, and billionaires.

What we know is that the Russian government, under the direction of Vladimir Putin, called in a series of over 60 bomb threats to election locations. We will undertake a hand recount in every state that was affected to ensure the integrity of the vote.

Moreover, the damaging effect of propaganda funded and directed by our adversaries, including their proxies like billionaire Elon Musk, on the American people cannot be overstated. To that end, I have directed that X, which was purchased by Elon Musk and blatantly used to interfere with the election, be seized, along with the rest of his assets, including SpaceX and Tesla to prevent further damage to our citizens.

The federal government will not allow, much less subsidize, a man who would threaten our democracy.

The apps Truth Social and Telegram are banned in the United States, along with the dangerous website Rumble. FoxNews has been shut down.

Donald Trump and a number of his co-conspirators have been arrested for Treason against the United States. The evidence for it is public. You don’t have to search for it. As Maya Angelou said: “When they tell you who they are, believe them.”

I know these may seem like extreme steps, but I have to level with the American people and most importantly to defend you. That was my solemn oath when you elected me — and I’ll be damned if I’m the president that hands over our nation to our enemies.

America is not going anywhere. Thank you.

The low-information voters who picked Trump based on inflation can not possibly have expected:

-A vaccine denier as HHS secretary
-An alleged pedophile as AG
-A Russia apologist as the director of national intelligence
-A TV host as Secretary of Defense

Adam Schiff has for years stood up to Donald Trump, and now he’s bringing that fight to the U.S. Senate.

RETWEET if you are proud to stand with Adam Schiff against Donald Trump!
