@60Minutes When referencing sending human troops into combat, Please stop saying ‘boots on the ground’ as you did in this segment! These are our family, friends , neighbors ie not just boots!

@TaylorValen9 @tigers Lots of folks have to work at night and appreciate afternoon games…

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨BREAKING: Trump disavows any supporter who still asks to see the Epstein files: Reporter: Are you saying that you’re effectively disowning your supporters…?
Trump: I’ve lost a lot of faith in certain people, yeah.

Share this so MAGA abandons him.

@JohnMcGuire4VA You are hypocrite Al for voting for this bill that increases our debt on top of the damage it does to your constituents!

[Peter Thompson @petermthom]

Agreed! Balanced and reasonable statement from the Chants.

[Chance Miller @cmiller05]

Proud of @CoastalBaseball. The 2025 season is one TEAL NATION will remember 4 a long time. Congrats to LSU, a great team that earned this championship.

However, on the game’s highest stage our coaches should have been there throughout, but that opportunity was taken from them

[PolitiFact @PolitiFact]

Social media users claimed that DOGE discovered a man making more than $1 million using dozens of Social Security numbers. That’s baseless.

That time @marcorubio explained how USA, Russia & the UK promised Ukraine to provide for their defense forever if they gave up the huge stockpile of nuclear weapons left in the country after the Soviet Union fell.
Good times.

Robert Kennedy Kr, don’t mislead people-your comments are literally about life and death.

[FactCheck.org @factcheckdotorg]

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., head of the Department of Health and Human Services, downplayed the seriousness of an ongoing measles outbreak in Texas, falsely claiming that people had been hospitalized “mainly for quarantine” and misleadingly stating that the situation is “not unusual.”

The Texas outbreak is already larger than any single outbreak last year and has led to the first measles death in the U.S. since 2015.

[Peter Thompson @petermthom]

DOGE, Where is the evidence? If there is fraud, where are the indictments?’

[PolitiFact @PolitiFact]

Social media users claimed the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, saved the U.S. more than $64 billion in the first few weeks of President Donald Trump’s second term. But this lacks evidence. https://t.co/O17eBrirP8

If the courts let him ban unfavorable media coverage will conservatives worry about the dismantling of constitutional rights i.e. #1 as they do about #2?! https://t.co/EQqgkag4Iz

Marco Rubio: “For years to come, there are many people on the right...that are going to be having to explain and justify how they fell into this trap of supporting Donald Trump because this is not going to end well.”

A graphic widely shared on social media is not proof that the U.S. Agency for International Development paid Chelsea Clinton $84 million. Here’s what it shows. https://t.co/HE5C8dG0ZV

So did 47 know of this wasteful impact of his decision?

[Alex Ward @alexbward]

“Purchases and shipments of U.S. food aid worth over $340 million — including rice, wheat and soybeans — have been paused during Trump’s foreign-aid freeze…That has left hundreds of tons of American-grown wheat stranded in Houston alone.” https://t.co/3JomTyEpCG

Conservative values include accountability-we can’t have people proud of being racist working and meddling in our government. https://t.co/qOiFuqjhBm

How does this ‘make America great’?!

[Mark Warner @MarkWarner]

Half of Virginia’s Community Health Centers have stopped receiving federal funding.

Trump’s chaos means rural health care providers will close down, potentially for good.

[Peter Thompson @petermthom]

@JohnMcGuire4VA Can you name another country that names its military bases after people who violently rebelled against it?

[Peter Thompson @petermthom]

[Peter Thompson @petermthom]

Amen!
