This is all being exposed as another corrupt undertaking by Trump and his minions. It’s not about Ukraine. It’s about how much money they can extract from Russia. Which is now out in the open. Does the media have the courage to run with the truth? Probably not.

Rounds: Senator Shaheen mentioned that Secretary Rubio did make a phone call to us this afternoon. I think he made it very clear that we are the recipients of a proposal that was delivered to one of our representatives. It is not our recommendation. It is not our peace plan.

One of the most pathetic examples of corporate capture I've ever seen.
CFPB is requiring bank examiners to read a "humility in supervisions" pledge before any examination begins, basically apologizing for having the temerity to monitor compliance.
Here's the pledge.

To put a finer point on it: An "illegal order" is one that violates their oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States.

If you think that upholding the Constitution = sedition, well...you do the math.
Them: “You don’t have to obey illegal orders.”

Him: “That’s seditious! They should be hanged!”

Definitely not beating the giving-illegal-orders allegations.

When Marimar Martinez was shot five times by ICE, they claimed she was the threat.

She was “ramming their vehicle” and brandishing a weapon.

She ended up with 7 holes in her body.

All charges against her were just dropped.

Now they need to charge the agent who shot her!

Prosecutors had accused Marimar Martinez and another defendant of ramming their cars into a federal vehicle in October. Her legal team argued it was federal agents who rammed her.

Republicans destroy. Crops are rotting in Florida. Farmers can’t sell crops. Climate change is ignored. Americans are priced out of healthcare. Trump tariff taxes increase costs. Prices keep rising. The GOP protects sexual predators and encourages fascism at home and abroad.

Republicans are playing games with programs Americans rely on, and it's taking a toll. I’m proud of how Oregon has protected access to SNAP for those who use it to put food on the table.

This is about feeding our families, children, & seniors – the games need to stop.

The Hill reports that Congress was blindsided by Trump’s 28 point Ukraine plan, learning details mostly from the media. Lawmakers in both parties, including Trump allies like Lindsey Graham, are alarmed, calling the proposal heavily pro Russian and crafted without Congress or Ukrainian involvement.
