Washington, Iowa, pop 7300, had over 150 people show up to rally. Continual honks in solidarity, a brass band, and potluck lunch and treats. It was a great time! #NoKings

@Mollyploofkins I’ll be redacting the heck out of that.

[Harry Sisson @harryjsisson]

I expect every Republican who was outraged at people for celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death to immediately condemn Trump for saying “I’m glad he’s dead” about Robert Mueller. This is disgusting.

[Rev. Benjamin Cremer @Brcremer]

Dear Christian,

Undocumented immigrants can’t vote. It is a crime that results in prison and/or deportation.

Only 68 instances of this has happened in the last 40 years, by the Heritage Foundation’s own report.

Saying tons of undocumented immigrants are voting is a lie.

This exchange just happened on the Senate floor.
Cornyn: “I don’t understand how the SAVE Act disenfranchises voters.”

Durbin: “Happy to explain. Driver’s licenses don’t qualify under the bill. 50% of Americans don’t have passports.”
Cornyn: “Why not just amend it?”

Durbin: “When’s the last time the Senate actually amended a bill?”

Silence.

The SAVE Act requires passport-level documentation to register to vote.

50% of Americans don’t have a passport.

The people least likely to have passports: the elderly, the poor, rural Americans, young first-time voters.

The people most likely to have passports: wealthy Americans.

This is not voter protection.

This is voter selection.

And when a senator suggested fixing it — his own colleague couldn’t name the last time the Senate amended anything.

That’s the Senate in 2026.

@keithmurphy It’s a trap. Run.

Trump: “It was July 4th of last year, when flood waters tore through a girl’s summer camp in Central Texas. One of the worse things I’ve ever seen. I was there.”

Fact check: Trump was not there. He was throwing a party on the White House South Lawn while children were missing.

Border Patrol dump blind refugee 5 miles away from home—he was found dead on the street.

Officers dropped him off in front of a donut shop—didn't notify his lawyer or family he was even released.

When reported missing—local police said he was in ICE custody and stopped looking for him.

Nurul Amin Shah Alam is 56 years old, nearly blind, spoke no English, and dealt with serious medical conditions.

He was left to die alone—abandoned in the year's worst winter storm on the streets of Buffalo, New York.

[Iowa Senate Democrats @IowaSenate]

The amended school funding bill passed the Senate today by a vote of 27-20. For Iowa's public schools, it will mean budget cuts, teacher lay-offs, and inadequate support for hundreds of thousands of Iowa kids.

[FactPost @factpostnews]

New reports reveal that ICE killed a U.S. citizen in March 2025 and never disclosed it until now.

Ruben Ray Martinez was shot multiple times in South Padre Island, Texas, just five days after turning 23.

[Tim Miller @Timodc]

It brings me no joy to say this but given the presidents shocking announcement that the Supreme Court is compromised by foreign interests, the next president will have no choice but to replace all 9 members with new
justices who have no foreign entanglements.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

In other words, Iowa Republicans recognize that Iowa is very much in play for Dems in 2026.

[Joshua Reed Eakle 🗽 @JoshEakle]

It’s important that you understand what happened last night.

Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue.

In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired.

CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.”

In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump.

But censorship always backfires.

Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.

🚨 BREAKING: At Trump’s ICE detention camp in Dilley, Texas, agents are reportedly raiding family dormitories to confiscate children’s letters after they exposed abuse and neglect.

Kids wrote about fear, depression, and being denied school.

Instead of fixing the conditions, authorities are trying to silence them.

Raiding children’s letters.

Inside a detention camp.

[The Green Dragon Tavern @greendragonhq]

Watch as MAGA loudmouth Randy Fine illegally casts votes for other members of the Florida House of Reps.

This is the same guy preaching to us about election integrity when he can’t even follow the rules himself.

He clearly looks around to make sure no one is watching, then rolls around to hastily press each vote button.

🚨 RFK Jr. just said: “I’m not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off toilet seats.”

This is a man running public health policy.

Meet your wellness czar: reckless, proud of it, and bragging on camera.

RESIGN.

[Rob Sand @RobSandIA]

This is not enough. We’re spending $350M on an unaccountable private school voucher program while constitutionally underfunding our public schools. Iowa kids deserve better. Accountability and transparency now. https://t.co/hyESMfzDw0

🚨 WATCH THIS.

Newly released body cam shows Border Patrol agents deliberately steering into Marimar Martinez — an American teacher — before shooting her 5 times.

DHS falsely claimed she “ambushed” them.

Kash Patel amplified the lie.
Prosecutors later dropped the case.

Texts show agents celebrated: “Good shooting.”

This was a cover-up.

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: Law enforcement threatened to kill an unarmed 17-year-old as he was leaving an anti-ICE protest in Indianapolis.

In the video, police officers stop a 17-year-old and order him out of his car.

He calmly asks why.

Instead of answering, an officer opens the car door, grabs his arm, and says:

“I will fucking kill you.”

An armed officer told an unarmed child he would kill him… with zero justification.

The teen looks visibly shocked and gets out of the car.

Officers then shove him against the vehicle and begin searching him.

After threatening his life, the officer tries to justify it by saying,

“He was reaching for a gun.”

The teen responds, “Who was reaching for a gun?!?”

They find no gun… because he never had a gun, and never reached for anything.

This police officer illegally threatened to use lethal force against a minor who committed no crime.

Which is exactly what happens when a government excuses, defends, and normalizes law enforcement aggression.

When officers know they won’t be held accountable, the threats get louder, the lies get sloppier, and the violence escalates.

[MAGA Cult Slayer @MAGACult2]

Once again, the administration is attempting to launder the narrative. Ice has not left Minnesota and they have not waned.
