It was “protect the children” until it came to immigrant children.

It was “protect the children” until it came to gun violence.

It was “protect the children” until it came to food assistance.

It was “protect the children” until it came to healthcare.

It was never about protecting children.

Predatory conduct towards children is fine, says Trump. After all, it's nothing he wouldn't do. And as for policy about drug interdiction, just ask what that white powder is trailing from the noses of Marco Rubio and Pete Hegseth. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

For five years, Trump has whitewashed the Jan. 6 insurrection, culminating with him freeing roughly 1,500 criminals.

Trump tells the world that this is all a law-enforcement, not military exercise. He then tells the Senate law-enforcement oversight committee that it's a military, not a law-enforcement matter. He can't even keep his lies straight.

At least eight opened with an early boost from state-funded vouchers in the 1960s.

Why did SecDef cancel the classified briefing on the Hill about the Venezuelan ship attack that killed 11? Probably because of this. Hegseth is struggling to come up with an explanation for what he did. An explanation that is not actually incriminating.
