It really is the height of solipsism and narcissism to think that our coverage of fallen warriors has anything to do with our how we cover a president. I'm just utterly shocked that Hegseth and now Karoline Leavitt are saying it.
They're trying to get as many eyes on [the Epstein Files] and as much public awareness, knowledge, and understanding of this as possible. They built something that the public can use directly, rather than having it be intermediated by journalists, basically having it be in a format that so many people use in their everyday life.
You voted to send me to Iraq. Did you not learn anything from that experience? You need to stand up. The American people do not want this war. The American people do not support a war that is going to get young American men and women killed, that is going to kill an immense amount of Iranian civilians—all on behalf of the Israeli government and the Saudi government.
I completely reject the premise of your question. You have had the president of the United States, the secretary of war, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the vice president of United States, the secretary of state, and now I am out here today to explain to you exactly what led the president to make the decision to launch Operation Epic Fury.
The House Oversight Committee voted Wednesday to subpoena Attorney General Pam Bondi to answer questions over the Justice Department's handling of files related to the Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking investigation. Five Republicans joined Democrats to support the subpoena proposed by GOP Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina in a sign of continued frustration with the department's review and release of a tranche of documents regarding the disgraced financier.
Senator Sheehy joined Capitol Police in lifting up and ejecting anti war protestor Brian McGinnis from a SASC subcommittee hearing. McGinnis is a Green Party candidate running for Senate in N.C. An antiwar activist filmed the video below.
Criminal accountability is a non-starter between sovereign immunity and the inevitable blanket pardons Trump will issue. The Department has declared "war" on judges invoking contempt powers. And Justice already gutted its internal disciplinary resources. All that's left to deter the rampant ethical violations committed by government lawyers is for local bar licensing authorities to impose discipline.
President Donald Trump's administration has made immigration the centerpiece of its policy agenda. Across the government, agencies have been asked to find new offices for immigration authorities, share sensitive data on immigrants, and help push immigrants off of government services.
In Texas, where the Party hasn't managed to elect a Democrat as governor or to the Senate in more than thirty years, it nominated its arguably stronger candidate for the general election, and slightly more people voted in the Democratic primary than in the Republican one. I'd call that a good night.
Pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) are opaque intermediaries-and they are unpopular with figures including Mark Cuban, who told Fortune that the way they bargain over drug prices is absurd, something that would never happen at the very same pharmacies buying a package of Pringles potato-chip products.
From a hearty handshake and Trump telling him, 'Thank you, won't forget it' last year to getting bypassed in the handshake line at this year's State of the Union, it's been a long strange trip for Roberts. And yet he wouldn't have it any other way because for Roberts, ritualistic humiliation is a small price to pay for dismantling the Voting Rights Act.
The agreement calls for the companies to negotiate separate electricity rate structures with utilities and states. They would commit to paying those rates for power as well as for any necessary infrastructure. Administration officials emphasized that those payments would be made regardless of whether companies use the electricity.
Just weeks before early voting began, the North Carolina State Board of Elections sent letters to more than 241,000 registered voters notifying them that they did not have a driver's license number or partial Social Security number in their voter registration file that was validated when matched to government databases. The board acknowledged that mismatches were frequently caused by minor discrepancies - hyphens, apostrophes, name changes, typos - with no bearing on voter eligibility.
Kalshi offers an online sports betting operation to residents in the State of Michigan without the licensing approval of the Michigan Gaming Control Board. Specifically, Kalshi operates a so-called prediction market through which residents of the State of Michigan can engage in unlicensed gambling under the guise of trading event contracts.
We demand that the amateurs in control of the ICE social media account take it down. It ain't funny, this song means a lot to us and other people, and you don't get to appropriate it without a fight. Also, go f- yourselves... Radiohead
Federal regulations outline that in the case of an overpayment for duties, including those determined to be illegal, those payments must be returned with interest. U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) outlines this interest compounds daily at an annualized rate of 4.5% for overpayments more than $10,000 and 6% on overpayments less than that.
