Last night, President Trump bombed another civilian boat in international waters, killing 4 more people and bringing the death toll of his illegal boat strikes to 99.
These murders violate U.S. and international law and must be stopped.

The top 10 problems with Trump’s bailout for U.S. farmers
At first blush, there’s a lot to like about the motivation behind the effort. But just below the surface, the policy suffers from some serious flaws.

For the life of me I don't understand why posts like this are not creating intense discussion about Trump's fitness for office. If our leader is not aware of what is happening around him, does not see the sky as blue, how can he remain in this job?

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.
Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.
The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.
Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

If you can’t sell your soybeans because of Trump’s tariffs after Argentina stepped in and took your customers, you can take solace that the guy you voted for also just gave $20 billion of your tax dollars to the country that is bankrupting you.

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command.
The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other states—and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into another—is extremely dangerous.
