Fox News credulously reports that "the Saudis now say their investment pledge in the US will be increased to $1 trillion." THE ENTIRE GDP OF SAUDI ARABIA IS $1.1 TRILLION, so this is total nonsense.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Before it gets better, it gets worse. The more we stand up to them, the more they will punish. But we outnumber them. We hold the power. We're the consumers. They need us.

Remember this as they commit atrocities...and they will. It's not normal. Don't allow them to scare you into submission.

Did Republicans give Biden and the Democrats credit for freeing more than 100 Israeli hostages?

No?

Yeah, thought so.

Israel is playing Trump and MAGA right now. The entire world knows it except Trump and MAGA.

News just broke that the Venezuelan boat that Trump struck was not, in fact, headed to the U.S. with drugs.

But this story is disturbing for other reasons, and you need to know why. It's another sign of Trump's growing lawlessness. And it's bad counter-narcotics strategy.

I’ll be really curious to see how much patience MAGA has if Patel doesn’t deliver fast.
I have serious doubts as to whether, after all of its politically-motivated firings, the FBI has the capacity and expertise to actually investigate Kirk’s murder. The lawsuit filed today against Patel and the Bureau describes a complete clown show that leaves all of us less safe

Here’s what we’re reading today:

Ukraine marks 34 years of independence — the third celebration during the full-scale war. It’s a time to honor the values Ukrainians fight for and remember those who died for freedom. World leaders, including Kellogg, came to Kyiv to show support.
