A group of Democrats has asked Speaker Johnson to review whether Rep. Kat Cammack R-FL broke House rules and ghost voted for Rep. Byron Donalds R-FL - while Donalds was on a trip to California on Feb. 7.

Rep. Seth Moulton torches Hegseth’s failure:
“If a junior Guardsman did what Pete Hegseth did, they’d be fired, stripped of clearance, and probably prosecuted.”
But Hegseth? Still SecDef. Still lying. Still putting lives at risk.
No honor. No accountability. No excuse.
Some good news: As a result of public pressure, my office has confirmed that DOGE has backed down from their previously announced decision to close Social Security offices in GA.
After initially listing 5 offices as “agency closed” on their “wall of receipts,” DOGE has now removed the GA lease terminations from their website.
This is an important victory for Georgia seniors and a true testament to the power of our voices. I’ll continue working to hold this admin accountable.
ALERT: After 30 minute hearing here in DC, Judge James Boasberg orders Trump national security team to preserve all Signal communications between March 11 and March 15.
A Venmo account under the name "Michael Waltz" — carrying a profile photo of Trump's national security adviser and connected to accounts bearing the names of people closely associated with him — was left open to the public until Wednesday afternoon, according to WIRED. https://t.co/C2prf2svUX
Trump’s current economic policy is completely different from his first time around, and he’s got the plummeting stock market to prove it.

What would Elon Musk have been posting if Russia signed a cease fire offer 3 days ago with the US and Ukraine was refusing to sign it? What would Vance be posting? Trump?
So why have all 3 been completely silent since Ukraine has signed it and Putin refuses?
Russia has rejected the US proposal for 30-day ceasefire in Ukraine. Putin's office stated that it would be "nothing other than a temporary breather for Ukrainian troops."
Now the ball is actually on Trump's court - let's see if he's ready to punish Putin.
If Elon makes it so seniors and disabled Americans can't talk to a real person over the phone, he is cutting off untold numbers of Americans from getting the benefits they have paid into their entire careers.
That IS a benefit cut to Social Security—endorsed by Republicans.
NEW: A federal judge, for the first time, has ordered discovery on Elon Musk’s role in DOGE and his authority over the massive overhaul of the federal bureaucracy.

The FBI is now moving to criminalize groups like Habitat for Humanity for “conspiracy to defraud the United States.”
This comes after EPA Director Lee Zeldin eliminated the EPA headquarters in D.C. and 10 other regional offices.

Project 2025 says fire federal workers, so they are.
Project 2025 says abolish the Dept. of Ed, so they are.
Project 2025 says kick moms + babies off Medicaid, so they are.
Project 2025 calls for a national abortion ban using the Comstock Act… see where I’m going with this?
BREAKING: Judge Howell has *blocked* the Trump administration from enforcing Trump's executive order seeking to block Perkins Coie (and its clients) from all government business and buildings.
