Forget about the nonsense stories like the Kennedy Center being renamed or whatever Bari Weiss is doing
At least 3,800 immigrant children were detained in 2025. Now, kids are not supposed to be kept more than 20 days
At least 1,300 of them have been held longer than 20 days-some for over 4 months

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Love this gift idea! 💝 Throw in some KN95s too (medium size for women & smaller faces) 😷 Easier to use than N95s, more effective than baggy blue surgical masks I see so many elderly people wear, probably because it’s hard to find KN95s in stores and many elderly folk can’t navigate online shopping.
Looking for gifts for the elderly people in your life? Covid 19/Flu A/Flu B rapid tests probably aren't at the top of their list, but they could be a life-saver.
It's a very bad flu season and early detection of influenza means that at-risk people can get flu antivirals to treat it.

BREAKING: The Florida Supreme Court upheld Florida’s law, making it the only state to allow juries split 8-4 to sentence people to death.
Permitting non-unanimous, divided juries to sentence people to death is unconstitutional and increases the risk of executing an innocent person.

Again, this violates state law: "a law enforcement agency or official may not... support, or assist in any capacity with an immigration agent's enforcement operations, including any collateral assistance such as ... establishing a security or traffic perimeter surrounding such operations"
In a second example of local police securing a path for Bovino's caravan today, Evanston cops just assisted with the feds' departure by blocking and directing traffic.

I hope Trump lives.
I hope he lives long enough to see a blue wave in 2026, and another in '28. I hope he lives long enough to see all his damage reversed, and all his cronies indicted. I hope he lives long enough to see justice for his own crimes, against the public and the world.

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."
