An elderly holocaust survivor confronts ICE and Tom Homan.

His bravery after what he has experienced and endured shows his incredible indomitable spirit even the Nazis couldn’t crush.

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

"He's been absent. I haven't seen him," said Snyder, an Army veteran. "He hasn't had a town hall. It's been a decade."

Snyder said the last town hall Rep. Austin Scott held in 2015 was restricted to veterans only, and she wasn't invited despite her military service."

If Mahmoud Khalil committed a crime, charge him.
If he is convicted of a crime, pursue revocation of his permanent residency status.

Mark Kelly was a Navy pilot and an astronaut before entering politics

He earned multiple commendations for service during combat

Elon Musk is an oligarch who-along with Donald Trump-attacks our allies and is trying to dismantle our government

Safe to say who the traitor is between the two of them

This is interesting. Trump says he's willing to agree to a preliminary injunction if they can skip the hearing and testimony. Trump would rather appeal the preliminary injunction that have agency heads testify under oath.

Trump and Musk have cut vital programs at the VA, leaving many veterans in crisis abandoned. Our veterans answered the call, but now nobody will answer theirs.

This may be the biggest free speech crisis in living memory. The president now bragging about detaining a lawful permanent resident and smearing him as 'pro Hamas', no outlining any specific crimes he is accused of or charged with. This is what a fascist takeover looks like.

Under the category “you wouldn’t believe it if you hadn’t read it”

VA Secretary Doug Collins says he’s going to improve services for veterans

By cutting over 70,000 VA employees

Not only will that significantly DEGRADE services

It also means the VA will probably wind up FIRING about 24,000 vets

Ryan Walters is forcing religion & bibles into Oklahoma public schools—it’s unconstitutional.

Meanwhile, SCOTUS is weighing whether taxpayer money can fund an Oklahoma Catholic charter. If they let it slide, expect a flood of state-funded religious schools in more red states. The stakes are huge.

JD Vance best watch this vid ‘cuz yesterday he bitched that his 3-yr-old was scared by a group of protesters shouting “Slava Ukraini.”

The hypocrisy is staggering: This girl lost her leg in a Russian attack & is a symbol of the unyielding strength of the Ukrainian people who are fighting pure evil.

“Do not buy swasticars.”

“Constitution, yes. Musk, no.”

“No one elected Elon Musk.”

These are a sample of the messages that targeted Elon Musk over the weekend, as thousands of protesters across the country flooded local Tesla dealerships.

I challenge anyone to prove me wrong: If there is a "home of the brave" anywhere in the world today, it's in Ukraine... the 2025 US lost moral right to its own anthem's words. It's brave Ukrainians who live up to its spirit.

This is a very good and useful news story. It reports on DOGE’s understanding that people hate them and what they’re planning to fix it.

It notes, in detail, that what they say they are doing (streamline/improving gov’t tech) was already being done by 18F, a gov agency they blithely destroyed.

Dear Ukraine, Greenland, Mexico, Canada, France, & all of our old friends,

We’re so sorry.

We’re pretty sure Elon fucked with the 2024 election, & reinstalled Trump in order for them both to avoid prison.

Please know that sane Americans are horrified by all of this.

Sincerly,
Sane Americans
