“It is unacceptable to ask the American people to bail out Freedom 250. Congress already appropriated $150 million—without bipartisan input—with the administration promising that private donors would help finance the rest,” Sen. Merkley wrote.

The two people who are breaking through the noise and cutting through to the essence of what is happening right now with deeply damaged Donald Trump are Jon Ossoff and Hunter Biden. Here is Hunter's very perceptive take on the messy scene at the White House Correspondents Dinner:
Republicans do things TO people, not FOR people.
Nobody in the U.S. Senate is more responsible for the overturning of Roe v. Wade than Susan Collins. In November, we will defeat her.
Hunter Biden: Jared Kushner holds no government position. Yet he is our Middle East Envoy. The Saudis have paid him $100M and invested $2B in his firm. He pushed for Saudi nuclear enrichment over the objection of national security officials. Today his father-in-law made it happen. But my paintings…
Another endangered species just lost federal protections. At the request of the Trump administration, a federal judge in Texas removed Endangered Species Act protections from the dunes sagebrush lizard, a species found only in parts of southeastern New Mexico and West Texas.
Does trump think that Canada can control the wind? America is also on fire. Sheesh. RIP Nicholas Dale, thank you for your sacrifice. 🇨🇦 TT: @ thatgirlfromblaketown www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Taylor Farms' parent company has given $2.2M to GOP PACs this election cycle. That includes $1M to Trump's own PAC, just 6 days after the FDA delayed new food tracing requirements last year. Money in politics is sickening.
19-year-old Pvt. Isabella Gonzales died defending this country. Think about that while politicians demonize immigrants and terrorize Latino communities. Americans with names like Gonzales have always fought, bled, and died for this nation. RIP to her and Lt. Tyler Feehan. 🇺🇸
Col. Lawrence Wilkerson: ‘The world has FORGOTTEN about the Palestinians. That’s fundamentally EVIL. Israel is leading the way in bringing back 20th Century horrors.’ ‘Everyone has forgotten about the Palestinians, and that's what the Israelis want and that's what Donald Trump wants. That's what

Lindsey Graham on Gaza: "Just flatten it, like we flattened Tokyo and Berlin." Lindsey Graham on the Iran War: "We are going to make tons of money." Lindsey Graham on Renée Nicole Good: "She deserved what happened. She provoked ICE." As grandma used to say: GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH.
The sheer injustice in Houston is sickening. Lorenzo was just going to work to support his family when his life was stolen by ICE. Seeing his father on his knees, consumed by raw, agonizing grief, is a heartbreaking reminder of the human cost of systemic violence. He deserves justice.
We know that ICE lies—because they lie constantly. I am DEMANDING that ICE release all of the footage related to Lorenzo Salgado Araujo's killing. There needs to be an independent investigation immediately.
SHOCK NYT REPORT: DHS now admits the man ICE killed in Houston wasn't even their target. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a 35-year U.S. resident, was just driving to work when agents — with no body cameras — shot him dead searching for two other men who weren't even in the van. Gift link in reply.
"Surreptitious extremism is still extremism, and ICE remains an undertrained, overly aggressive organization. Which is why...we see all too clearly what happens when armed agents swarm blue-collar working parents fearing for their lives." lnk.thebulwark.com/4vUAuiA
