🚨Trump just pardoned Joseph Schwartz — a nursing home operator convicted of a $39 million fraud scheme.

Three months into a three year sentence.

Schwartz defrauded the healthcare system that was supposed to protect elderly and vulnerable Americans.

His victims have not been able to collect a single dollar.

Trump pardoned him anyway.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Trump says he needs another $200,000,000,000 for his war.

Not for health care. Not for housing. Not for education.

Instead, he's asking every family to chip in $1,400 to keep bombing Iran.

Israel is dropping white phosphorus bombs on many villages in South Lebanon.

Again.

Only Israel is allowed to use white phosphorus on civilian areas in Lebanon and Palestine — repeatedly, a war crime — and the international community doesn’t even blink.

[Senator Adam Schiff @SenAdamSchiff]

Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI. Twice.

Now, Trump cronies at DOJ pay him $1.25 million of your taxpayer money to reward him for his corrupt loyalty.

The federal government … as racketeering organization.

Millions of dollars are missing.

ABC, Paramount, X, and Meta all settled lawsuits by promising to donate millions to Trump's library fund.

Now, his initial library fund is gone.

Is the money in Donald Trump's pocket? I'm pressing for answers.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

A reminder that all the chaos at airports right now is solely on Trump. Even Senate Republicans tried to solve this problem.

But it's on Trump and his stubbornness and indifference to the plight of ordinary Americans.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Multiple children being killed everyday in Lebanon and nobody in the West gives a damn.

Arab and Muslim lives are cheap.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

The war in Iran has already cost $22.8 billion.

For $22.8 billion, we could:

• Provide Medicaid to 6.8 million kids
• Build 2.6 million public housing units
• Fund Head Start for 1.3 million
• Hire 240,000 teachers
• Cancel $20,000 in student debt for 1 million borrowers

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “So, the Saudis paid $2 billion to Trump’s son in law Jared, and now Jared is the U.S. government’s point person in the Middle East. The NYTimes now reports that while Jared is serving as the U.S. government’s point person in the Middle East, Jared is simultaneously asking the Saudis for yet MORE billions of dollars for his private business…Why would they say no? For the low low price of what they’ve already given him, the Saudi’s have apparently discovered the price of RENTING OUT something called the armed forces of the United States of America, to attack their rival nation #Iran.”😳

[Joe Kent @joekent16jan19]

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.

I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.

It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.

May God bless America.

This is Beirut today.

Israel is wiping out entire residential buildings in densely populated neighborhoods of Lebanon’s capital.

Not military targets.

Homes.
Civilian life reduced to rubble.

ICE detained a dialysis patient the morning of her treatment.
She died 36 hours later in a detention infirmary.
They logged it as "natural causes."
When policy kills, call it what it is.

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

Donald Trump just gave the title of Oak Flat—a sacred site to Indigenous communities in AZ and NM—to a “FOREIGN-OWNED” copper mining company.

These are public lands that have been protected for generations, as communities have warned mining and drilling would destroy this sacred landscape and drain its waters.

Trump’s “America First” is a scam—it never was about putting Americans first, but Trump and his buddies’ pocketbooks. Today is a sad, sad day for the people who have fought to protect this sacred place for generations. We will continue to fight back!

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents knocked down the door of a family home looking for a man who wasn’t inside… then illegally took the people from the house.

This happened in South Burlington, Vermont, where agents say a man fled from them earlier in a car, and ran into a nearby house.

They then surrounded the home, and flooded the neighborhood with federal agents, while hundreds of activists gathered outside trying to stop the illegal raid.

Hours later, a federal judge issued a search warrant. Agents then pulled protesters away from the entrance and knocked the door down to force their way inside the house.

And the man they claimed justified the entire raid… wasn’t even there.

But, they took the people in the home anyway.

So, just to clarify…

Federal agents stormed a home, dragged people out of the house, and detained them… even though they are not the person named in the warrant… and authorities still have not even publicly identified who those people are, or what charges they supposedly face.

Neighbors say the house belonged to a family with children, and at one point, a child had to be escorted out while armed federal agents prepared to storm the home.

Then, when agents tried to leave, they fired flash-bang grenades and tear gas, into a residential neighborhood, to clear the crowd.

Even officials in South Burlington, Vermont questioned ICE’s tactics afterward, because operations like this don’t just terrorize families… they push the limits of what federal agents are legally allowed to do inside people’s homes.

And once they start dragging the wrong people out of those homes…

That’s when raids have no real limits, and the government has unlimited power.

American Professor Jeffrey Sachs:

“Israel’s doctrine of war is kill them in mass numbers, kill the civilians, kill the women, kill the children.

It’s doing the same in Lebanon now, and it’s carpet-bombing Tehran in Iran.

The world needs to stand up and stop accepting this as something even remotely normal or acceptable.

This is mass murder with US complicity.”

Israel killed every single paramedic in this photo today in South Lebanon.

12 paramedics slaughtered in one Israeli strike.

Israel DELIBERATELY targeted their medical center.

Killing medics is a war crime.

Killing medics is a crime against humanity.

This is medicide.

BREAKING:

Israel just executed Mohammad with a direct shot to the head.

He was only 5 years old.

He was killed along with his 6-year-old brother Othman and their parents in the occupied West Bank.

A whole innocent family erased.

[David Pakman @dpakman]

They are now refusing to state the number of American casualties in the Iran war. When regimes do this, it is a HUGE RED FLAG.
