New whistleblower allegations: The Trump admin had plans to classify 2.7 million living people — including some U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents — as dead as part of its immigration enforcement efforts, according to a former senior Social Security executive. https://t.co/rPruAbqhDH
LET’S KEEP IT REAL
According to Trump, Black jobs are in factories. And we already know if a Black person is a doctor, lawyer, engineer, executive, professor, pilot, or CEO, he calls it DEI.
Yesterday, Trump was asked why Black unemployment is still 7.3%, far above the national average of 4.3%.
His answer? Don’t worry, Black workers will do well when more factories and car plants open.
Apparently, in Trump’s America, our future is on the assembly line.
Trump did this.
He pardoned January 6 rioters, then tried to hand them a $1.8 BILLION taxpayer-funded slush fund as a reward.
Now we’re learning that some pardon recipients have since faced charges involving sex crimes, domestic violence, assault, DUIs, illegal firearms, and other offenses.
The whole thing felt less like compensation and more like an attempt to financially reward and strengthen the militia that attacked the Capitol.
The President is not well. He can’t stay awake at important White House events and cabinet meetings.
@WhiteHouse needs to come clean about why trump takes so many trips to the hospital and why doctors keep giving trump cognitive tests.
A whistleblower reports that the Trump admin planned to classify 2.7M living people as dead, nullifying their Social Security numbers, to force them out of the country.
More than half of the publicly identified donors to Trump's White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion during the past six months, according to a report released by a government watchdog group.
Thousands of Albanians are protesting a luxury resort planned for a pristine strip of the Mediterranean coastline and backed by Ivanka and Jared.
The protests, raising concerns about conservation, transparency and the project's ties to the Trump family, began Sunday after heavy machinery started working on the project.
The New World Screwworm, a grave parasitic threat, has just been detected in US cattle for the first time since it was eradicated in 1966.
The parasite's revival comes after Trump and DOGE slashed funding for Screwworm monitoring programs.
The government agency that deals with bedbugs and similar parasitic insects has been infested by bedbugs.
This comes after DOGE slashed their budget and fired 400 employees.
Gov. JB Pritzker just announced the Illinois budget, maintaining a $0 deficit for the 8th year in a row.
This includes $100M to help families afford groceries after Trump kicked millions off SNAP.
Trump's upheaval of the federal government has led to an exodus of more than 10,000 lawyers since the beginning of 2025 — a striking loss of legal talent that has left some agencies pushing to find attorneys to carry out his agenda.
Roughly one in five lawyers who worked in the government at the end of 2024 had left by March of this year.
Sen. @ossoff: Just weeks into this war. They said they'd need $200 billion to fund it. Let me put that in perspective for you, $200 billion would fund a decade, 10 full years of nationwide universal pre-K. The America first president who said he would end foreign wars to put America first and focus on America's working class. Instead, now he says, "it's not possible for us to take care of daycare, Medicaid or Medicare." Now he says all we can afford is war.
Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold:
"The Governor's grant of clemency to Tina Peters is an affront to our democracy, the people of Colorado, and election officials across the country. It sends a dangerous message about accountability for those who would attack elections. Peters' release also will embolden the election denial movement; since the grant of clemency, she has continued to spread election falsehoods and conspiracies."
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's son quietly landed a political appointee job as a lawyer in the Treasury Department early last year — posing a potential conflict of interest as courts wrestle with challenges to Trump's deal to avoid future tax audits and the new massive slush fund meant to enrich his allies.
The Pentagon is moving to recruit hundreds of troops to appear as spectators at Trump's UFC cage-fighting event at the White House — and requiring those who attend to pay for their travel and meet height and weight requirements, according to people familiar with the matter and internal memos reviewed by WaPo.

Rep. @MelanieforNM: The DOJ is intervening on behalf of Pam Bondi to stop her from answering basic questions about what happened in the cover-up of the Epstein files and her conversations with Donald Trump. This is a cover up. This will be remembered as the largest cover-up in American history, and it is clear that this interview is a smokescreen.
We talked to nearly 100 people about youth sports in New Jersey and found a predatory industry that is leaving parents broke, exhausted and wondering how the games of their childhood took over their adult lives. Our six-month investigation: https://t.co/plE3w618qt
