Today, Members of Congress got their paycheck unless (as I did) they wrote a letter to the House saying to withhold the pay pending the shutdown.
Meanwhile, Congressional staffers went without pay today.
Every member should answer whether they took the paycheck while their staff got nothing.

Today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump ambushed South African President Ramaphosa with racist lies about “white genocide.”
This is proof that Elon Musk not only hacked Grok to be more racist, he hacked Donald Trump.

Court denies White House appeal of 'shocking' Abrego Garcia deportation case
The Fourth Circuit ruling against the Trump administration came just one day after it appealed a lower court order in the Abrego Garcia case, a remarkably short time for a court to reach a decision.

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia.
I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

It's yet another scandal.
Who knew Trump would cave on tariffs and when? I’ve called for all Members of Congress to immediately disclose all trades in the market over the last week. We also need to ban members of Congress from trading stock, once and for all.

Absolutely devastating from Israeli analyst @origoldberg.bsky.social:
"The consensus underpinning the great turmoil of Israeli politics is that Palestinians are not worthy of concern or respect or care. Their lives are ashes to be scattered at most, nothing more."

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Pete Buttigieg hit this key question:
"How did the information move from a classified system to an unclassified system?"
"Somebody moved it. And that somebody would appear to be Secretary Hegseth. He needs to explain how he did that and why."
