NOW: In a major blow to Trump, the Senate voted 50–48 to approve a resolution ordering the removal of U.S. forces from hostilities against Iran unless Congress declares war or authorizes the use of military force.
Republican senators Collins, Cassidy, Murkowski, and Paul voted yes. Fetterman was the only Democrat to vote no.
Senators McConnell and McCormick did not vote.
Trump mysteriously got way more votes than downballot Republicans only in swing states, while Kamala Harris mysteriously got way fewer votes than downballot Dems only in swing states. Karl Rove once allegedly told a whistleblower if a state was within 3% on election night you could cheat undetected.
REMINDER: IRS CEO and Social Security Commissioner Frank Bisignano signed off on the $1.8 billion slush fund to pay off Trump’s cronies and insurrectionist loyalists!
>>@MTLegalAF: Stalin's infamous secret police chief is known for the quote, "Show me the man and I'll show you the crime.” If you control the apparatus for investigation and for determining what is a crime to charge, then anybody can be prosecuted. And that's really the philosophy going on behind what Trump wants done by his all-too-willing DOJ.
We need to stop whining and start reacting.
The corruption, cruelty, and abuse of power won't end because we complain about it - it ends when we actually do something about it.

Alan Greenspan, the former chairman of the Federal Reserve, died Monday of complications from Parkinson’s disease at the age of 100.
Greenspan was widely considered the most powerful Fed chair in modern times, serving for nearly two decades and largely presiding over a period of long prosperity. He was frequently credited for helping to manage inflation and foster growth, but his strong beliefs in the free market and less regulation came under sharp criticism during the financial crisis that led to the Great Recession.
Paul Solman looks back at Greenspan’s legacy.
The White House is now pushing a “vandals with knives” story to explain Trump’s reflecting-pool fiasco.
Okay. Then show the footage. Show the evidence. Show the incident report. Show the arrests.
Until they do, this looks like what it probably is: another fabricated cover story for another taxpayer-funded Trump vanity disaster.
🎥 NEW: The DOJ sued 31 states to seize your most sensitive voter data — but they're tallying at zero wins so far.
Marc Elias breaks down why Trump's voter data obsession isn't just a PR stunt, but an effort to build a national voter list he can control to decide who gets to vote in 2026👇

What do TPUSA, the US Treasury, and fraud have in common?
Did a video version of my analysis from yesterday bc I know it’s a lot.
Source document can be found in my Linktree (it’s free. Link in bio).
Donald Trump mishandled classified documents after he left office.
He took classified intelligence to Mar-a-Lago and stored it in a bathroom.
The full Special Counsel report on it is still hidden from the public and Congress.
Jack Smith’s report should be released fully.
A federal judge blocked a Trump administration voter-screening database, ruling that the government's "haphazard" system unlawfully consolidated "the private information of millions of Americans" in an effort to purge non-citizens from voter rolls. https://t.co/s76PelJaxo
After I sued to end Metro Surge, the DOJ opened a criminal investigation into my office.
A court just found that investigation was a "blatantly unlawful and unethical" effort to retaliate against me for challenging Metro Surge.
Trump’s threats won't stop me from defending MN.
There is a 24/7 camera that shows the reflecting pool. If someone went into the pool and made a 250 foot gash, it would have been seen.
trump is lying again. Everyone knows it, but the people at @TheJusticeDept are randomly going after people to soothe trump’s fragile ego.
I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t.
Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. RT if you're with me.
This should be on the front page of every newspaper in America.
Trump’s DOJ just shut down a federal investigation into a coal company owned by Sen. Jim Justice, one of his closest allies, after it racked up tens of thousands of alleged violations for dumping dangerous chemicals into our waterways. A veteran federal prosecutor with 24 years on the job said he had never seen anything like it.
The man who killed the case was Todd Blanche, Trump’s former personal defense lawyer and current Acting Attorney General. This is the same guy who just gave Trump, his family, and his companies permanent immunity from IRS audits. Now Trump wants the Senate to make Blanche’s appointment permanent too.
Equal justice under law was never supposed to come with exceptions for the President’s friends.
The pattern isn’t subtle: protect Trump’s friends, prosecute his critics, and get rewarded with more power. That is corruption, plain and simple. Todd Blanche must not be confirmed.
