Hegseth's chief of staff "told Mr. Driscoll that President Trump would not want to stand next to a Black female officer at military events, the officials said." nytimes.com/2026/03/27/us/…

NOBODY has been banned from participating in the Olympics. Men, who by definition are not women, are simply not allowed to participate in women’s events. Those men remain more than welcome to continue to participate in men’s events. It really is that simple.

If you changed your name when you got married, take notice.    Under the SAVE Act, your driver’s license wouldn’t be enough to vote. You’d need a birth certificate that matches your current legal name. Most women who changed their name at marriage don’t have that. And getting it costs money you shouldn’t have to spend just to cast a ballot.    Republicans aren’t targeting noncitizens. They’re targeting you.

When Democrats take power again, in 2027, one of the things on their agenda should be to exempt TSA from losing funding during government shutdowns. We can’t allow Republicans to hold our country hostage whenever they want to take away our rights.

I would also like to pay the salaries of TSA workers, with my tax dollars that I’ve already paid.

Hello Politico, You’ve published 1,500+ words about Senator Mike Lee and the SAVE America Act. Your headline conditioned the reader what to think before the first paragraph: "This is about attention." Your sourcing: five anonymous Republican senators, and a section titled "Leadership ambitions?" whose only function is to ensure the reader leaves believing Lee is just putting on a performance. The SAVE America Act requires proof of citizenship to register to vote. It passed the House 218-213. The President called it his "#1 priority." Harvard CAPS/Harris found in February 2026 that 75% of Americans support it. Your article does not contain the phrase "proof of citizenship." It does not mention any polling. It barely has any policy analysis. You have to remove the substance for the false personality smears to land. Now let’s examine the real reason you wrote this hit job. In January 2021, three of your staff left and founded Punchbowl News. They took your model with them. Then Jake Sherman said something you never have: on a podcast, he described Punchbowl's revenue as "nearly 90%" from corporate sponsorships." The documented sponsors include PhRMA, ExxonMobil, JPMorgan, Meta, and the American Investment Council. Turns out, you have the exact same sponsors. PhRMA pays for Politico Focus branded content. JPMorgan Chase is a Politico Focus client. The American Investment Council is a Politico Focus client. Meta sponsors your shows. You have Politico Pro, which charges K Street $10,000 to $30,000 a year for legislative intelligence — and accounted for approximately half your revenue as of 2015, with a 93% renewal rate. Your subscriber base is the lobbying community. They are also your subject matter. The same corporations fund both outlets. The same K Street audience reads both outlets. And both outlets produce the same framing: leadership is realistic, insurgent senators are attention-seekers, the SAVE Act has "almost no chance." Punchbowl's Andrew Desiderio wrote that. Your Jordain Carney wrote that Lee "doesn't have a realistic path." Two outlets, same sponsors, same audience, same conclusion. Your own article admits, buried below 1,500 words of anonymous attacks: Lee's pressure produced an open-ended floor debate "next to unheard-of in the modern Senate" and moved Chuck Schumer to concede ground on voter ID. You framed both as asides. An anonymous senator told you Lee's motivation is "the clicks." Lee does midnight livestreams explaining his position to anyone who wants to listen. Your anonymous senators called Politico. Your alumni left, built the same thing, and told the world what it was. You never had to. The article does it for you. Like @PunchbowlNews, you are a K Street sham, Politico. You should have all your Capitol press credentials revoked, because your entire existence is one giant violation of undisclosed lobbying restrictions.

Political disagreement is part of a free society. Endorsing violence is not. Anyone who blurs that line has no business leading federal law enforcement.

As a former public defender, I’ve always believed people are more than the worst thing they’ve ever done. I believe in redemption. The man we knew showed up with respect, care, and commitment to protecting others. We’re still learning the full story, but today we mourn a life lost. This is a tragic ending that we wish had been avoided for all.

CNN: "It will be difficult for [Trump] to entirely dismiss this resignation as someone you know, with TDS, as someone who is a Trump enemy... just because Joe Kent has so often aligned himself with the President." "He is of the MAGA wing of the party."

There’s more to the Joe Kent story than meets the eye. According to friends, apparently, Joe leaked intelligence under the nose of the Secretary of War. As a result, his access to classified information was removed several weeks ago. He’s not stepping down due to his allegiance to integrity, he’s being forced to leave.

This is insanely stupid. There is a cottage industry on the right that has built an entire brand around telling conservatives the system is rigged, voting is pointless, both parties are the same and not to vote. Just to give up, and that voting doesn't matter. Here's what you need to understand about anyone telling you not to vote: they are either useful idiots for the Democratic Party or they are deliberately acting as useful idiots for the Democratic Party. Either way the result is the same. Democrats win when Republicans stay home. Full stop. Not voting is not a protest. It is a concession. Anyone telling you otherwise is not your friend. Ignore this clown, this is horrifyingly stupid.

Utah reviewed 2 MILLION voter registrations. Found 1 non-citizen registered. Zero non-citizen votes cast. The "problem" the SAVE Act is solving doesn't exist. The voters it would block absolutely do. #SAVEActIsPayToVote

Going through this letter in detail: "Iran posed no imminent threat to the United States." Neither did ISIS. And yet you applaud their defeat later on in your letter. Just because an adversary isn't an "imminent threat" doesn't mean you should wait until that threat is "imminent" and much more costly to deal with, if their trajectory is headed that way. "I support the values and the foreign policies you campaigned on in 2016, 2020, and 2024, which you enacted in your first term." Those include repeated commitments to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. "In your first administration, you understood better than any modern President how to decisively apply military power without getting us drawn into never-ending wars. You demonstrated this by killing Qasam Solamani and by defeating ISIS." Then why aren't you giving him the benefit of the doubt? We're less than three weeks in to Epic Fury. It took quite a bit longer than that for President Trump to finish off ISIS. "Early in this administration, high-ranking Israeli officials and influential members of the American media deployed a misinformation campaign that wholly undermined your America First platform and sowed pro-war sentiments to encourage a war with Iran." Source? I noticed a misinformation campaign going the other direction - from people like Tucker who suggested 20,000 Americans would almost certainly die if we knocked out the Iranian nuclear facilities last June. "This echo chamber was used to deceive you into believing that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States." THIS is the part that''s just incredibly patronizing. Trump has six years of experience being President, He has access to the best assessments made by his intelligence community and his military. Suggesting he fell victim to an external influence operation instead of going with the advice of his appointed senior advisors is patronizing and insulting. "This was a lie and is the same tactic the Israelis used to draw us into the disastrous Iraq War." THAT is false. The record is clear that the Israeli government cautioned against American entry into Iraq. Netanyahu giving supportive testimony in Congress while he was a private citizen (after the decision to invade had been made) does not contradict that. "As a veteran who deployed to combat 11 times and as a Gold Star husband who lost by beloved wife Shannon in a war manufactured by Israel..." We're all sorry for your loss. But even if you are right about Israel encouraging us to invade Iraq (which you are not, as discussed), how are you still blaming them for America's continued presence in Iraq seventeen years later? None of this is remotely persuasive, Joe, and it's deeply insulting to the President who endorsed your Congressional campaigns and entrusted you with an important National Security position. That said, your conscience is your conscience, and given that these are your beliefs, it is indeed best that you no longer serve in the administration.
Joe Kent@joekent16jan19

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

Kids aren’t being allowed to have snack at school because it might offend someone who is fasting for ramadan. Survivors of torture aren’t being allowed to fulfill their public speaking engagements because their story might offend a Muslim. Family pets’ mere existence are being threat because they offend a Muslim. I don’t pretend to know many Muslims, but the ones that I do know have been here for a long time and would NEVER do any of these things. They are lovely. Call them extremists or Islamists. I don’t know or care what the label is. The outcome needs to be the same. We need to say no. Our kids don’t understand how dangerous this trend is and may not even tell us when things like this happen because they don’t know any different. We need to be the adults in the room and say NO.
