Israel just carried out another act of piracy in the Mediterranean, preventing a humanitarian ship from delivering food to a starving population in Gaza.

If you’re wondering who’s ACTUALLY stealing the aid, Israel just did it out in the open.

Now the Trump administration is using social media to spin that people who are standing up to ICE are "insurrectionists" funded by ActBlue, so the main Democratic grassroots fundraising arm is to blame.

THIS WAS THE PLAN ALL ALONG. shero.substack.com/p/trump-sets...
Trump Sets His Sights on Act Blue
A new "presidential action" indicates that the Trump administration will now attempt to cut off Democratic grassroots campaign funding at the knees in an attempt to hinder all opposition permanently.

January Trump approval on the economy:
plus +8.24 points

Today Trump approval on the economy:
minus -15.75

January Trump approval on inflation:
plus +1.99

Today Trump approval on inflation:
minus -22.24

So clearly it's time to deploy the Marines in L.A.?

I'll wait for Pam Bondi to prove the MS-13 allegations against Kilmar Abrego Garcia in court. Until then, it is the Trump administration who can't follow the law with regard to immigration and crime.

If a Muslim in the US publicly called for a missile strike on a famous celebrity activist onboard a civilian ship or plane, the FBI would be investigating them for terrorism.

But a rich white guy gets to incite violence without any consequences 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽

While Elon Musk and Trump continue to trade barbs at each other, the MAGA community is falling apart around them. I look at the slow implosion of MAGA and the consequences of their fallout.

Chief of Nashville, criminal division resigns over decision to charge Abrego Garcia. That’s a big story and the details will likely be very damning for the administration.

Republicans don’t want you to notice — but buried in their cruel bill is a quiet repeal of the ACA.
Millions could lose healthcare. We stopped this before. We must stop it again.

🚨NEW: @cbsnews.com reports ICE is arresting people who can't even legally be deported and holding them without enough food or water in a federal building BASEMENT in Los Angeles.

Families dutifully attending check-ins with ICE are being arrested and held for days, forced to sleep on the floor.

Everyone needs to read Steve’s terrific write-up regarding D-Day. Thank you Steve.
“So long as human beings live in freedom, it will rank as one of human civilization’s most monumental days. The scale of the endeavor was epic. In fact, it may be the most complicated one ever executed by human beings en masse.”

Bernie: "What that is all about is that if you're rich in America, you can make campaign contributions, you are entitled to massive tax breaks because you're superhuman beings. But if you're a poor working stiff, working at McDonald's, struggling to put food on the table, you're entitled to nothing"

WATCH: “It's totally unconscionable,” says Sen. Bernie Sanders on the GOP bill that would kick 11 million Americans off health care. “And to do that in order to give massive tax breaks to people today on the top—who have never ever had it so good—is beyond cruel.”

This is the test of our democracy right now: how much will Republicans in Congress let President Trump get away with defying the law? The answer should be: this moment shouldn’t be about party. It should be about the country.

I can say with authority that it's a particular form of hell to expend yourself writing a 12 page NIH grant for the past 3 months without the assurance that NIH will actually be there to evaluate it.

But even worse is having a proposal funded, then a bunch of bros get it recinded.
