@AAGDhillon@CivilRights@TheJusticeDept Can the definition changes for โparentโ made under former Sec. of Ed. Miguel Cardona be revoked? The original legal use of โen loco parentisโ has been expanding beyond its original scope. Some states actually use it to to allow schools to replace & undermine the will of a parent.
@MichaelARothman Respectfully, @LeaderJohnThune if we donโt have secure elections, none of the noble Senate traditions (eg. filibuster) will ever matter again.
Democrats have already announced clearly what they plan to do when they return to power - which they will if elections are not secured.
The U.S. Men's National Team is off to an incredible start as the U.S. hosts the men's 2026 FIFA World Cup. American soccer fans are celebrating the amazing teamwork during the U.S. men's opening game that led to a 4-1 victory over Paraguay. Part of that teamwork comes from a deep faith bond between many of the players who are boldly displaying their faith in Christ. After the team's victory, defender Mark McKenzie even led the 2026 team in a public group prayer.

Jacob Hoopes, 25, a Reed College graduate, was sentenced last week to ๐๐ ๐ฆ๐จ๐ง๐ญ๐ก๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐จ๐ง for throwing a rock at an ICE officerโs face during a Portland anti-ICE protest, causing a significant laceration over the officerโs eye. He also used a street stop sign to damage the ICE building. Judge Adrienne Nelson handed down the sentence on June 11, along with three years of supervised release and more than $8,000 in restitution.
The Department of Homeland Security marked the moment on Tuesday:

Hoopes is not a random protestor. Reed College is one of the most elite small liberal arts schools in the country, known for its intense academics and hard-left politics. ๐ ๐๐ ๐ข๐ง๐ฏ๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ ๐๐ญ๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ ๐ข๐๐๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐๐ข๐๐ ๐๐จ๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก ๐๐๐๐ข๐๐ฅ ๐ซ๐๐๐จ๐ ๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง โ ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ ๐ญ๐๐ญ๐ญ๐จ๐จ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐ ๐ ๐ฉ๐ก๐จ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ฅ๐๐ฎ๐ฆ ๐จ๐ง ๐๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ . Thatโs what the investigation looked like: federal agents hunting down a college-educated rioter who threw a rock at a manโs face because he disagreed with immigration enforcement.
Hoopes is one of nearly two dozen people charged in connection with ICE protest violence in southwest Portland. The protests ran for weeks in 2025, drawing students, activists, and people who had convinced themselves that federal law enforcement was the real criminal. ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐ฐ๐๐๐ง ๐ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐ญ๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐ฒ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฆ๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ฉ๐ข๐๐ค ๐ฎ๐ฉ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ซ๐จ๐๐ค.

Our 250th Birthday is right around the corner, share this and also POST ur OWN stories!! Let's get this party started!!๐ฅณ๐ซถ๐ป
Francis Scott Key was just a regular lawyer and part-time poet in 1814. He wasnโt even trying to write a national anthemโฆ he was trying to get a friend out of a British prison ship, but what he witnessed that night changed everything!! Picture this, itโs the War of 1812 and the British have already burned Washington D.C. to the ground. Now theyโre hammering Fort McHenry all night long with rockets and bombs. Keyโs stuck on a ship, watching through the darkness, wondering if the American flag is still flyingโฆ or if we just lost everything. Then came the dawnโฆ ๐
@SpeakerJohnson Amen. Discouraging factual circumstances do not supersede our faith in the Truth of Godโs Word. Sometimes what we cannot see is far better than what weโd hoped for.
The courage and conviction of John Quincy Adams inspire us still today. If you donโt know this great story from American history, you should. โDuty is ours. Results are Godโs.โ

@DataRepublican@Tundra_Ci_Annwn@ItsYourGov Didnโt the IRGC place Pompeo and others on their hit list? Do you think Pompeo sees a binary choice between MEK & IRGC? I find him a confusing figure. Guess I just have a skeptical gut reaction to anyone associated with the CIA.
