If every Democrat voted NO on funding ICE, it would not have passed the House. But, 7 House Democrats voted to fund Trump's lawless, masked goons, so it passed.

Hakeem Jeffries refused to whip his members to vote against ICE funding. Genuinely unforgivable.
NEW: DHS appropriations bill funding ICE passes 220-207

7 Democrats voted YES on the bill:
- Jared Golden
- Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
- Henry Cuellar
- Tom Suozzi
- Laura Gillen
- Don Davis
- Vicente Gonzalez

One Republican voted NO: Thomas Massie

This is a good analysis of Trump's mobster carve up of Gaza.
You pay the "vig" to be a player. Putin gets a seat but not the Palestinians.
Canada spend decades building an international rule of law. PM Carney cannot go along with this travesty.

The surreal farce that is Trump’s “Charter of the Board of Peace” - a commentary on its provisions
A “Board of Peace” was part of the Gaza ceasefire agreement. Trump has turned that into a treaty establishing a personal dictatorship over a new international organization -- with not a word on Gaza.

BREAKING: The Senate Law & Justice Committee just advanced SB 5855, Senator Valdez's bill to prohibit law enforcement from wearing masks and to require identifying information.

ICE is out of control. Let’s get that bill to my desk immediately so I can sign it into law.

If journalists would just stop conducting interviews with the sycophants of trump and his administration bootlickers and only report the facts of what they are doing, we would be in a lot better place right now.

i refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.

Do not trust people who ignored child rape trafficking and blackmail until it was politically convenient. The Epstein case was in the public domain if you bothered to look. I wrote a book on it in 2019 asking why the case -- so critical in so many ways -- wasn't covered. How could anyone ignore it?!
