President Trump amplified unfounded claims on Thursday that the government had paid Politico and other news media outlets for positive coverage of Democrats. The conspiracy theories appear to have been generated by records showing that agencies paid for subscriptions.

I've heard reports that the military branches paused sexual assault prevention and response trainings. That's horrific, against the law, and disastrous for our ability to recruit, retain, and protect women. Secretary Hegseth, you have some explaining to do. Stay tuned for my oversight letter.
