Today, I introduced a resolution to honor the crew of the USS Liberty. 59 years ago, Israel attacked the ship, killing 34 Americans and wounding 174.
The President should declassify and publicly release all files related to Israel’s unprovoked attack on the USS Liberty.
So here we have the daughter of US Republican Senator Jay Block saying:
"Israel is paying my father, and he spreads propaganda.
I am very ashamed of this situation.
I think my father has sold his soul to the devil.
I hope his career ends"
Theodore Roosevelt said the national parks were the greatest gift this country ever gave itself, and the greatest idea we ever gave the world.
More than 100 nations copied it.
Donald Trump looks at that gift and sees a piggy bank for his own pet projects.
This week we learned where our national park money has been going. Not to Yellowstone. Not to Yosemite. To the walkway outside his office, where Trump ripped out American flagstone and laid down Italian granite at a cost of $689,000 to taxpayers. He said he paid for it himself.
That was a lie.
To cover his vanity projects, they are robbing the parks. Spending on parks outside Washington is down $854 million. More than 900 projects went unfunded. They even pulled money from a guardrail on a Colorado cliff that the Park Service flagged as a safety hazard.
I serve on Appropriations.
The power to spend belongs to Congress, not to a king redecorating his palace. These parks are not Trump’s to loot.
They belong to all of us, and I will fight for every dollar.
Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million.
This year, it’s raising the price of an Xbox by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs.
Please don’t tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down.
This man needs to be arrested today for spitting in the face of a judge’s order to release trump’s pedophilia files. Katie Phang, the hero journalist lawyer, won’t let this criminal get away with it.
BREAKING (bones)
Why does "Bring Them Home" exist only for some hostages?
Because in Apartheid Israel, where only Jewish lives matter, brutalising the Palestinians isn't an anomaly - it is the system. And the silence around it is the exact measure of our collective hypocrisy.
The United States of America is a sovereign nation.
Section 224 of the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act must be removed.
Our military should not be integrated in any capacity with a foreign country’s military.
Nor should we be funding it.
Palestinian goalkeeper Salim Al-Ashqar has been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.
He leaves behind his wife of 5 months who is expecting their first child.
I just saw a little girl in Gaza, barely more than a baby, in a blood-soaked shirt and the back of her head split open. She was killed, along with her mother, because Israel is killing Palestinians every day.
The decline in reporting isn’t because the genocide ever stopped. It’s because Israel killed the journalists and their Western colleagues want you to believe there’s a “ceasefire.”
