BREAKING: Netanyahu has cut short his trip to the US and cancelled the planned Texas stop, flying to New York and returning to Israel the same day, shortly after Trump cut short his own weekend at Camp David to return to the White House tonight instead of tomorrow, citing the potential for significant escalation in the Middle East.

It’s pretty interesting that McConnell just happened to go home and was “mending” right before the Blanche vote?Does anyone think he’s actually home?

NEW: The US House just narrowly passed a nearly $1.15 trillion annual defense policy bill. The vote was 216-212, with six Dems voting for the bill and seven GOP voting against it. Democrats blocked the Senate’s version of this last week, so it doesn't look good.

NEW: All 212 US House Democrats have signed a “discharge petition” to force a vote to HALT the Trump slush fund and Trump’s sweetheart immunity deal w/ the IRS Only a small handful of GOP members are now needed to force vote Will they consider doing so as election nears?

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.

"After Medicaid officials improperly shared data about millions of people in January with immigration officials, ICE then shared that data with the data analytics firm Palantir" Palantir runs the app ELITE, which ICE uses to find addresses and neighborhoods to raid. Outrageous but not surprised 😒

ICE shared Medicaid data it wasn't supposed to have with Palantir

The revelations came out in a federal court case brought by Democratic states challenging ICE's access to Medicaid data to aid in deportation efforts.

Massie: "I don't think the problem is that our elections aren't secure because we control the House, Senate, White House, and to some degree we control the Supreme Court. So I ask my Republican colleagues, why are you complaining about election fraud? We won all the damn elections!"

ICE is a manifestation of Trump’s disdain for the rule of law. They are an ugly stain on our national consciousness. Every American should demand they be held accountable for their murder spree.

BREAKING: A federal judge just nullified Trump’s $1.776 billion IRS “settlement,” ruling it had “no viable basis in law or fact,” finding there was never a real legal dispute, and referring Trump’s attorney to The Florida Bar for possible discipline.
