This is Sad!
For almost 30 years, leaders from both parties have set politics aside to honor the women veterans who gave their lives for this country at Arlington National Cemetery.
Then Trump and Hegseth shut it down.
Why? Because the ceremony recognized women.
This is an insult to every woman who wore the uniform, served with courage, and sacrificed for this nation.
Yesterday, @demwomencaucus stood with the women veterans Trump and Hegseth tried to erase and held an event anyway.
We see you. We honor you. We thank you. 🇺🇸
This clown is SO DELUSIONAL, the entire planet heard him booed into oblivion, he says it was mostly cheers.
The booing was loud, and it was enthusiastic.
Pathetic, delusional clown.
🚨TRUMP INCRIMINATED IN THE EPSTEIN FILES: “I am coming forward to swear to the truthfulness of the physical and sexual abuse that I personally witnessed of minor females at the hands of Mr. Trump and Mr. Epstein.”
Trump today claimed he “didn’t promise anything” about NO NEW WARS.
So here’s a second compilation showing FIFTY times during his campaign where he PROMISED exactly that.
Good god this is a crazy interview. Listen as Scott Pelley describes how Bari Weiss wanted journalists at CBS to cover the killing of Renee Good in Minnesota. This is why we can’t have oligarchs running our news outlets, this is absolutely devastating.
🚨 HEARTBREAKING: Scott Pelley Sounded Like A Man Attending A Funeral.
Not for a person.
For a profession.
🔥 That’s why his defense of journalism hit so hard.
Scott Pelley confirmed on the record that CBS management ordered him to “inject falsehoods” into 60 Minutes coverage.
He named Bari Weiss directly. He said she was brought in to neutralize independent journalism inside the network.
He told 60 Minutes’ new leadership she was “murdering the show.”
Pelley spent 24 years at CBS News.
He just put his name on the record against the institution that built his career.
The Paramount-Skydance merger closed.
The new ownership installed Weiss. Pelley is the most senior on-air voice at CBS News describing what’s happening inside.
This is what institutional capture sounds like from inside the institution.
🚨 BREAKING: Bessent Couldn't Name The Case.
Asked what ongoing litigation prevents him from discussing Trump's audit status, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the matter was tied up in court.
Then Rep. Linda Sánchez asked a simple follow-up:
Which case?
He couldn't name it.
Sánchez pointed out that the only litigation she was aware of involved the $1.8 billion DOJ fund and said that case doesn't address presidential audit immunity.
That's what made the exchange awkward.
The administration says litigation prevents answers.
Congress wants to know which litigation.
LMAOOOO, Nancy Pelosi does not have time for bullshit, folks.
Watch this fake reporter for "Mike Pillow man" get cooked for pushing debunked Jan 6th lies.
Woman: "You told me to shut up and..."
Pelosi: "And I'm telling you to shut up again."🔥🔥
Yesterday Donald Trump tripled the size of his personal political army inside the government. Illegally. And almost no one noticed.
Here's what happened:
He signed an order converting ~8,000 of the most senior career officials in government into employees he can fire for any reason, or no reason at all.
These aren't rando's. They're the directors, chiefs of staff, and the people who write the rules or decide who gets federal money, i.e. the lieutenants right below his political appointees.
Until yesterday, they answered to the law. Now they answer to him.
A president normally gets ~4,000 political appointees. People he can bring into government and fire at will. I was one of them at DHS. You serve at his pleasure, full stop -- so if you're gonna speak truth to power, you're prepared to quit (or get fired if he doesn't like it).
The rest of the federal government is PROTECTED from firing if they tell the truth.
But Trump just stripped those protections. Adding 8,000 more people to his personal army. Overnight. Without asking Congress.
With the stroke of a pen, those people now serve at the pleasure of the president. They're "his" people, whether they like it or not.
And the chilling effect is real. An official who can be fired this afternoon for "subversion of presidential directives" (the order's own words) doesn't need to be hand-picked to know what's expected of him or her.
The threat does all the work.
By the way, this order is illegal. The law only lets Trump reclassify jobs when "necessary" in exceptional circumstances. And this blows an 8,000-person hole in the merit hiring / firing system created by Congress.
Without permission, Trump has created a whole new category of stormtroopers inside the Executive Branch.
If this doesn't get challenged in court, you're going to see the U.S. government become a very different place.

Wow! @SenatorLujan just completely torched Scott Bessent and Donald Trump for their corruption.
"President Trump's sons signed a deal, as you know, with World Liberty Financial with a bunch of folks you sanctioned. And now, as part of this, there's an addendum that says President Trump and his kids and anyone affiliated with him, I don't know if it's current wives, former wives, people that just did transactions with him, they're off scot-free... You're telling me as the Secretary of U.S. Treasury, you don't know that the President of the United States, who I think you work for, got a sweetheart deal from the Department of Justice, who's your lawyer. You're in line for the Presidents, Scott.
"Here's a list of all the insider trading right here... You should apologize to the American people for fleecing them and giving this a way to Donald Trump, man. That's what you should do."
🚨BREAKING: MAGA is losing their minds over this AI video showing a construction crew forcibly removing Trump’s name from the outside of the Kennedy Center.
Share it everywhere just to annoy them. This will soon be a reality.
This is Ken Paxton's mugshot.
He was indicted on 3 felony counts for investment fraud.
He was reported to the FBI by his own staff for bribery.
He was impeached by his own party for corruption.
Now he’s the Republican nominee for US Senate in Texas.
Together we will stop him.
Every year, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring.
They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.
France also gave us this land as American soil. #MemorialDayWeekend
BREAKING: In newly leaked footage, JD Vance personally thanks the leaders of Project 2025 for their work to ban abortion across the entire country and cut Social Security. Retweet to make sure all Americans see this.
DEAR WE THE PEOPLE! According to my calculation, it doesn’t look good for Mr. Trump involving a 13-year-old girl in 1994. Here is that girl, Katie Johnson, at age 35 giving a full description of what Trump did to her.
Hey, media, it has always blown my mind that this never got more traction. There are even three separate sworn witness statements and plenty of references to Trump making threats against them should they come forward, which in the end was enough to get them to drop the charges.
LOCK HIS ASS UP!
