Susan Collins is lying through her teeth. Roe v. Wade was not overturned 6-3. That is a lie. It was 5-4. Roberts specifically said he did not support overturning Roe.
Brett Kavanaugh was the deciding vote to overturn Roe v. Wade.
And Susan Collins was the deciding vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court.

Pulte begins a purge of the intelligence community. Add it to what Hegseth is doing w/ the military, Blanche w/ Justice, Patel w/ FBI, and hirings at ICE, and we’re entering a very dangerous period, one that makes Watergate look like child’s play.

Nobody is vandalizing the Reflecting Pool, and Trump knows it. This is a visible example of his corruption--a no-bid contract to some crony followed by sky-high cost overruns, and shoddy construction to boot. Classic Trump: I didn't fuck up, it was my enemies.
From the White House to the Ellipse to the Mall to the proposed Arch, Trump is the truest Vandal of them all.
“Goths, and Vandals, a rude Northern race,
Did all the matchless Monuments deface.”

Republicans looked the country in the eye and made a promise. When they rewrote the food stamp program last year, they said children would not be touched.
Pregnant women would not be touched.
Families with young kids would not be touched. They said it on the House floor, on the record, in front of everyone.
A year later we know the truth.
More than 776,000 children have been cut off from food assistance. In the states that track participation by age, kids make up nearly half of everyone who lost benefits.
These are kids who went to bed hungry because a politician wanted a talking point.
We must be a country that feeds its children. We used to believe that was the bare minimum. Take care of the kid who is hungry through no fault of their own.
The people who broke that promise should have to answer for it, and in November they will.

1. There were no Vandals.
2. The true affront to Washington and Lincoln is the presidency of Trump.

Blistering court filing from plaintiffs challenging Trump's name change of Kennedy Center
About the tarp hiding restored signage:
"Willfully sabotaging the Kennedy Center’s iconic façade to assuage defendants’ vanity or massage broken egos is a clear breach of fiduciary duty"
At 9AM, JD Vance claimed the Strait of Hormuz was open on Fox News.
At 10AM, Iran announced the Strait remains closed.
It could not be more clear that the Trump admin has absolutely no control over the situation right now.
BREAKING: Acting AG Todd Blanche just refused to swear under penalty of perjury that DOJ’s slush fund is dead. That’s the clearest sign yet that Trump’s plan to use your taxpayer dollars to pay Jan 6 rioters is still alive. ⬇️
