🚨 JUST IN — IT’S OFFICIAL: The U.S. Senate has BARRED members from receiving paychecks when the government shuts down

The ONLY useful thing the Senate has done in a long time.

I’m genuinely surprised!

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

ICE rammed a U.S. citizen's car with his infant and toddler inside.

They detonated flash-bang grenades. Pointed assault rifles at the family. Filmed the whole thing and posted it online.

The man's name is Antonio Valdovinos. He's a carpenter. Born in Long Beach, California.

His crime? He attended an anti-ICE protest.

A federal judge later ruled the arrest was a "vindictive effort to impose extrajudicial punishment."

This is what suppressing dissent looks like when the state has cameras.

Who approved this operation?

BREAKING: Take a look at Trump's trades.

You can see a large majority of the millions traded were recently in the new year, and especially after the Iranian war.

[Jessica Tarlov @JessicaTarlov]

The Trump administration says it is going to go after fraud.

It should redirect its attention to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Everything is a scam to get richer. He’s made $3 billion since coming back into office!

This is a video of Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein with children..
This is the video that the Department of Justice deleted yesterday..
Now they want to remove it from the internet..
Share this everywhere...

PabloReports: What do you make of this $1.7 billion slush fund that Trump is proposing for Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, and pardoned fraudsters?

Raskin: It’s illegal, unconstitutional, and outrageous. Congress controls the spending of money from the federal government, and we never voted to establish a $1.7 billion fund to pay off insurrectionists and his extremist private militias, and we would never spend money on that. So it needs to be blocked. It’s an absolute corruption and prostitution of the Judgment Fund.

🚨 WOWWW — UTAH — the brilliant young women @kevinolearytv 🤥 accused of being Chinese ops just discovered Utah speaker of the house Mike Schultz (Republican) bought 640 acres of land right next to the data center site just 2 months before it was announced.

Incredible find.

[Steven Franssen @SteveFranssen]

Ground beef just hit $7/lb. nationwide.

And Trump is talking about selling American farmland to the Chinese government.

MAGA is dead.

It was a big grift.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Mayor @ZohranKMamdani: It is time we stop asking our libraries to justify their existence. Earlier this week, we released our executive budget. Our budget baselines $31.7M in new, permanent funding across all 3 of New York's public library systems.

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

Breaking: The Texas Supreme Court just shut down Greg Abbott’s effort to remove Democrats from office for opposing his gerrymandering.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Democrats NEED to be talking more about the GUTTING of the Voting Rights Act.

MAGA is silencing voters and carving up Black districts all across the South to hold onto power.

This is Jim Crow 2.0. Silence is NOT an option.

[Senator Mark Kelly @SenMarkKelly]

Trump thinks he knows better than admirals and generals. He doesn't. 13 Americans are dead. Thousands of innocent lives have been lost. Costs are rising at home. And still there is no clear strategic objective. That’s the price of arrogance without strategy.

[Democratic Wins Media @DemocraticWins]

BREAKING: Rob Sand, Iowa’s Democratic nominee for Governor, is skyrocketing in the polls. It’s easy to understand why if you listen to what he says. Make sure every American sees this.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Dear @WhiteHouse and @RapidResponse47: Please retweet the below statement from trump that he doesn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation.”

He said “That’s a perfect statement. I’d make it again.”

So help him make it again.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

We have Russian documents outlining targets for strikes in Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities – political and military facilities where army leadership and government officials may be located, including here on Bankova Street. They have been nursing this plan for a long time, and now, after Iran, have become active again – trying to locate us and track our movements.

The same applies to other members of the Ukrainian leadership, intelligence agencies, and our special services. Some in Moscow have still failed to understand that Ukrainians will never surrender their independence. One way or another – whether on Bankova or without Bankova – we will not surrender our land, our sovereignty, or our state.

[Governor Abigail Spanberger @GovernorVA]

The Supreme Court of the United States has now joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election and the votes of more than three million Virginians.

These Virginians made their voices heard — casting their ballots in good faith to push back against a President who said he’s “entitled” to more seats in Congress before voters go to the polls.

As Governor, I will make sure voters know when and how to cast their votes this year. Because our votes are how we choose the representation we deserve.

[illuminatibot @iluminatibot]

This is a bombshell revelation:

Massie reveals Trump vetoed a bill to bring water to Colorado because their Rep Lauren Boebert pushed to expose the pedophiles in the Epstein files.

Trump has fought harder to protect child rapists than he has ever fought for the American people.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

COLLINS: But if someone was paying $2.98 a gallon before the war, and now they're paying $4.53, saying 'that's life' might not make them feel better

JIM JORDAN: Those are your words, not mine

COLLINS: You said that just now. I quoted you.
