This is the year 2026. One might have hoped that, after thousands of years of war, humanity could have come up with a better way to resolve conflicts than killing and mass destruction. Unfortunately, that is not the case.  There is now more war and bloodshed raging across the world than at almost any point in decades.

In February 2022, Vladimir Putin, without provocation, invaded Ukraine. The result: hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians killed, millions displaced and a war that grinds on with no end in sight.

In October 2023, Hamas attacked Israel, killing 1,200 innocent people and taking 251 hostages. In response, Netanyahu and the Israeli military did not simply wage war against Hamas — they waged war against the entire population of Gaza. At least 73,000 Palestinians have been killed, the real toll almost certainly far higher, most of them women, children and the elderly. Virtually the entire physical infrastructure of Gaza has been destroyed. I agree with the major human rights organizations around the world who call this a genocide.

Four months ago, in collusion with Netanyahu, Trump took a page from Putin's playbook: he started a war with Iran without provocation. The result of this war (and the ensuing Israeli war against Lebanon): 13 U.S. service members dead, thousands of Iranian and Lebanese civilians killed and more than $100 billion in U.S. taxpayer dollars spent.

And in the midst of all of this — Ukraine, Gaza, Iran — there is another horrific war happening now that is getting relatively little attention: the civil war and genocide in Sudan.

Sudan's two rival military factions, the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), the country's national army, and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), a paramilitary group, have been at war since 2023. The RSF descends from the Janjaweed militias that carried out Sudan's first genocide in Darfur two decades ago, killing as many as 400,000 non-Arab civilians. Today, the RSF is trying to finish what it started. The State Department has formally determined that the RSF is committing genocide, again, murdering men and boys and systematically raping women and girls because of their ethnicity. Last October, the RSF laid siege to the city of El-Fasher; in just the first three days after it fell, an estimated 6,000 people were killed. Right now, the same horror is unfolding in the city of El-Obeid, where nearly half a million people are trapped.

Let’s be clear. Trump’s good friend and staunch U.S. ally, the United Arab Emirates dictatorship, run by one of the wealthiest families in the world — has financed and enabled this genocide for years. And why is this happening? Billions of dollars of looted gold from Sudan is flowing straight into the pockets of Emirati oligarchs – making a multibillionaire family even richer. This has been documented by the United Nations, independent journalists, and international human rights organizations.

Here is the scale of what this war has caused: at least 59,000 people confirmed killed since 2023, with credible estimates running as high as 150,000. Fourteen million people driven from their homes. Thirty million people, two–thirds of Sudan's population, in need of emergency humanitarian assistance just to survive.

U.S. foreign policy must be based on a respect for democracy and human rights. We cannot be complicit in the face of genocide, no matter where it is happening. Congress must demand that the UAE cease its military support for the RSF and work with the international community and the Sudanese people to bring an end to this horrific conflict and provide the humanitarian aid that is desperately needed there.

Susan Collins wants you to keep on scrolling.

Don’t. 🛑

Mainers are tired of this act — shocked in public, complicit when it mattered.

Watch this and tell me I’m wrong.

Number of Epstein clients arrested: Zero

Number of times Trump has started a war with Iran every time there's a new Epstein development: 40.

@JoJoFromJerz What exactly did 1B buy? And which incompetent moron let the plane get used knowing this in advance? We keep hearing clown show, but besides being unqualified and unskilled, what clown is this incompetent?

[Just Jack @7Veritas4]

What I find most disturbing about the Graham Platner allegations is that, today, a federal judge ordered Donald Trump to pay the civil judgment of $5 million (+ interest) for raping and defaming E. Jean Carroll.

@JessicaTarlov The GOP literally has a guy running for senate with criminal indictments and literal voting fraud on his record. The very thing they pretend to want to fix and here we have another case. Democrats (and Republicans still in a primary) should be calling this out every day

[The Green Dragon Tavern @greendragonhq]

Ken Paxton must be arrested immediately for his blatant voter fraud. He voted 6 times in the past 2 years from a Collin County home he no longer lived in, per divorce records and investigations, while he crusades against voter fraud, he was committing it himself.

Hypocrisy at its finest.

The GOP should do the right thing and denounce his candidacy and endorse the ethical candidate James Talarico.

The guy is corrupted politician that has broken the law, taken bribes, been impeached and indicted. The fact the Republican party sees no problem is very telling.

Here are more of his controversies:

• Securities fraud indictment (2015): Paxton was charged with misleading investors in a tech startup without disclosing his commissions; dragged on for years before a 2024 plea deal with restitution and community service.

• Bribery & abuse of office (2020 whistleblowers): Top aides accused him of misusing his AG office to help donor Nate Paul (who funded home renovations and employed Paxton’s alleged mistress); led to historic impeachment.

• “Pedophile sweetheart deal” (Adam Hoffman case, 2026): Paxton’s AG office took over a Waco child sex abuse case (continuous sexual abuse of a young boy) and offered a plea to reduced misdemeanor charges—admitting molestation but just ~30 days jail (initially “time served”/1 day), no sex offender registration in Texas, and loss of law license. Critics called it an “Epstein-style” lenient deal after a mistrial; Hoffman later registered in Nebraska.

• Impeachment (2023): Texas House impeached him on 20 articles including bribery, obstruction, and oath violations tied to the donor scandal and affair; acquitted by the Senate.

• Extramarital affair: Admitted to an affair; allegations it factored into favors for donor Nate Paul, contributing to his wife’s 2025 divorce filing on “biblical grounds.”

• Firing whistleblowers: Sued and eventually paid millions (taxpayer-funded) to former top deputies who reported him to the FBI.

• Other issues: Failed to properly disclose investments with state contract ties; sued by State Bar over 2020 election lawsuit; wealth growth questioned during public office.

@620wtmj Parrots at WTMJ. No original thought or challenge to the absurd rhetoric. Do not listen to your network, even when the brewers are on because you stand for nothing

@SenMarkKelly Lets get past legislation and start with arrests. Break the law, face the consequences. Quit tip toeing around this a-hole

[my cats are smarter than Maga idiots @biasauth]

@cwebbonline Since this is an illegal act, will the Muchigan attorney general send out state police, local police, make arrests, prosecute if this actually happens.

BREAKING: HOLY SH*T! A former Justice Department Pardon Attorney BLOWS THE WHISTLE on Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche — reveals that he fired her for refusing to do a mafia-style favor for disgraced actor Mel Gibson.

This is jaw-dropping corruption...

"Liz Oyer, former Pardon Attorney, describes how Todd Blanche fired her when she refused to do a dangerous official favor for Trump friend Mel Gibson," Congressman Jamie Raskin wrote on X.

"The actor lost his federal firearm rights after committing domestic violence," he explained. "Gibson assaulted his girlfriend while she was holding their baby daughter, smashing her in the mouth, breaking her teeth, threatening her with his gun. Gibson asked Trump’s DOJ to reinstate his federal firearm rights despite his criminal conviction."

Gibson was accused of attacking musician Oksana Grigorieva in 2010 while the two were in a romantic relationship. In addition to the horrifying physical abuse that Raskin recounted, leaked phone conversations also revealed that Gibson admitted to slapping her and at one point told her: "If you get raped by a pack of n*****s, it'll be your fault." He repeatedly called her a "whore," "bitch," and "c*nt."

In addition to his horrific treatment of Grigorieva, Gibson launched into an infamous antisemitic rant during a DUI stop in 2006 during which he said "Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world" and repeatedly referred to "f*cking Jews."

In other words, he's exactly the kind of monster that Trump gravitates towards, which explains why he has been folded into MAGA's inner circle and appointed "Special Ambassador to Hollywood," a meaningless title that nonetheless shows how deeply embedded he is with this administration.

In his X post, Raskin went into greater detail about Blanche's push to reinstate Gibson's firearm rights—

"Although Blanche had the power to do it on his own, he tried to force Oyer to give her stamp of approval," he stated. "Not convinced of Gibson’s rehabilitation or his lack of dangerousness, and knowing that over half of women murdered in the United States are killed by a current or past intimate partner, and the presence of firearms in an abusive household increases the risk of murder by 500%, Oyer refused to have anything to do with Blanche’s dangerous and unethical suggestion. Blanche sacked her."

The congressman also shared a post from Oyer herself, in which she wrote that Blanche "fired me for doing my job" and "subjected me and my family to months of retaliation."

"My story is one of many reasons the Senate should not confirm Blanche again," Oyer added. She shared a link to the official letter she sent to the Senate Judiciary Committee.

In it, she revealed that Blanche subjected her and her family to "an extended course of retaliatory conduct, including attempting to prevent me from informing Congress about his actions by directing U.S. Marshals to deliver an intimidating letter to our home and initiating a baseless professional misconduct complaint against me with the bar where I am licensed."

Damningly, Blanche fired Oyer just two hours after she informed him that she "would not rubberstamp a political favor for a celebrity friend" of Trump. The administration wanted her to pen a memo recommending that Gibson regain legal access to guns, which he lost when he was convicted of domestic violence.

The actor's attorney had sent a letter to the Justice Department requesting the favor, which absurdly "cited Mr. Gibson’s personal relationship with Mr. Trump and his catalogue of famous films." The suggestion that appearing in movies somehow entitles him to special treatment is galling, but it shows that he understands Trump' warped, fame-obsessed psyche.

Oyer explined that "longstanding DOJ policy" requires the Office of the Pardon Attorney to conduct "careful vetting" and risk assessment and for the FBI to do a background investigation. Blanche wanted her to ignore the usual procedures entirely.

"Rearming a domestic abuser without careful vetting was not consistent with the Department’s policies or its duty to protect public safety," wrote Oyer.

"My recommendation was not actually needed to grant Mr. Gibson’s request. The legal authority to restore firearm rights rests with the Attorney General. As a career official, I understood that my recommendation would lend a veneer of legitimacy to what could otherwise look like a political favor," she explained.

Oyer took a brave stand and was punished for it. She is currently involved in litigation against the Department over her illegal firing, because it blatantly violated federal service and whistleblower protection laws.

Crucially, Oyer's letter also stated what we have all come to realize: the presidential pardon system has become completely corrupted under Trump.

"A pay-to-play pardon system has developed that has advantaged the wealthy and well-connected," she alleged.

Please ❤️ and share to thank Liz Oyer for speaking out!

I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHAT ANYONE SAYS — THIS MAN IS THE REAL MVP, AND A TRUE HERO.

This is Air Force Major Jason Watson's speech that resulted in his arrest on July 1, 2026.

I QUOTE: "In the grand scheme of things, I'm Just a nobody. What matters far more than who I am, is what I have to say, and the price I'm willing to pay to say it."

This man KNEW the trouble he was getting into by standing there in his military uniform, and he was willing to pay that price by sacrificing his entire military career so others can understand the dire situation of the current state of this country.

I can only aspire to obtain this type of bravery and courage.

@essenviews Not "earned", bribed, grifted, stole 2.2 B and actually much more based on taxpayer money in the treasury being used for all his whims and nkt what congress allocated for projects. Retract your pkst, correct it with correct wording.

[my cats are smarter than Maga idiots @biasauth]

@RepHuffman We want to know what happened to the 150M reserved for this celebration. It is missing. I will say this repeatedly, without filter, trump cannot steal money from taxpayers. It is not anything to do witb official acts and nkt covered by any false immunity, so charge him with theft

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I am officially nominating Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) for the Nobel Peace Prize.

No President in History has ended the same war so many times.

Our Dear Leader has ended the war with Iran at least 38 times by CNN’s count.

No President has ever done this before.

And he is nowhere near finished ending it.

It’s a record worthy of the Nobel committee’s recognition. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

[my cats are smarter than Maga idiots @biasauth]

@liderfiscal What's the charge? Missing the reason this is tbe story, rather than not seeing more people join him on tbe steps to participate in that silent protest

[my cats are smarter than Maga idiots @biasauth]

@JessicaTarlov I take comfort in knowing trump did not make 2.2B as we can literally state no product was sold, no service rendered. He asked for my ey from people for access or loyalty, and that is grift at best, theft for sure, and if Chris Murphy is keeping track, will be prosecuted
