Federal judge busts the IRS in its illegal data-sharing scheme with DHS where IRS was giving ICE confidential info of undocumented immigrants WHO ARE PAYING THEIR TAXES to help ICE find & deport them.

My breakdown of this shocking news and the judge’s scathing order.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump.

The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

Throw the book at whoever killed Charlie Kirk—no matter who it is.

And throw the book at whoever helped enable what Jeffrey Epstein was doing or profited from it personally, professionally, or financially—no matter who it is.

“ I will not allow his fear of the other infect my ability to see the humanity in every person.”
Beautifully said.
My candid thoughts on the death of Charlie Kirk.

As a Muslim, I’ve received an onslaught of hate from Kirk supporters who believed his disinformation about Islam and Muslims. Yet, I do not rejoice in his death. At all. So why have empathy for those who show none?

🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump said in a weekend social media post he plans to issue an executive order to impose voter ID requirements. And he reiterated his desire to ban mail voting.

The president lacks the authority to take either step.

The Texas GOP’s mid-decade gerrymander doesn’t simply seek to win Latino voters. It redraws district lines in ways that weaken their ability to elect their preferred candidates by packing and cracking Latino neighborhoods to shore up Republican control.

Elon Musk vowed Monday he would back primary challengers to any Republicans who support Trump’s megabill.

This is BIG LEVERAGE to use right now in calling your Senator to tell them if they support Trump's bill, you will vote for any challenger Musk backs.
