Jared Kushner has somehow found a place at Coalition of the Willing press conference with Scholz, Zelensky, Macron, Starmer and Witkoff.

Kushner has no official position in the US government.

I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.

But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

Listen to the panic of this moment as #ICE shoots into her car with kids inside.

How can anyone think that this is acceptable?

It's absolutely repugnant.

#ICELawlessness is happening again & again.

Just about every attack is being done without warrants on innocent people by anonymous thugs.

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

As Trump becomes more unpopular, his regime is getting more desperate to silence dissent. Pete Hegseth’s latest attempt to intimidate Senator Kelly for exercising his right to free speech is straight out of the authoritarian playbook.

“There’s a lot of money to pay for this. It doesn’t have to be US taxpayer money,” Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz claimed about Iraq in March 2003.

That wasn’t the case, and just like what would happen in Iraq, the military campaign in Venezuela is likely to have steep costs.

Trump’s real base of support — billionaires, Big Oil, Big Tech, crypto, defense contractors, & Wall Street — know that the midterms may limit what they and Trump can get away with moving forward.

2026 could be the last year they can cash in and loot the country.

Be warned.

Many low-income service workers already work 80+ hours per month on average. But 1 in 3 such workers will fall below the 80-hour-per-month threshold in at least one month in a year because of hours inconsistency or spells of unemployment

Everyone is talking about the headlines in the Maduro indictment.

Very few are talking about the legal gymnastics inside it—especially flight allegations, terrorism designations, and immunity workaround.

I read the whole thing. Here’s what DOJ is actually doing.
