This is a travesty. More than 33 million children in America are growing up breathing toxic air according to the American Lung Association's 2026 State of the Air report. That’s nearly half of all kids in the U.S.  But it gets worse. 20% of these kids live in communities with air that routinely fails every single safety measure for smog and soot. As a parent and a Congressman, I find it sickening. The Trump administration promised to “Make America Healthy Again,” yet they’re pushing environmental rollbacks that are systematically poisoning America’s air.  I grew up in California in the 80s. I remember what the burn of smog felt like for kids playing outside back then, and I won’t be silent while Trump lets pollution choke the next generation. Share this if you won’t either. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/a…

It’s a neat trick that Trump and his henchmen are pulling with their mafia DOJ. File a bogus frivolous lawsuit that you can never possibly win in a court of law, then have Todd Blanche settle it by paying them millions and potentially billions in taxpayer money. Theft by lawsuit.

📽️ Messages to you all from our director @Dmitro7607: "I wish everyone strength and resilience, my friends. I'm just getting back from a delivery run to the Pokrovsk direction. And now look at the face of this guy. This guy used to be my battle buddy. We trained together at the same centre. Now he is serving in the 46th brigade, in their drone unit. And so I brought him a lot of things that he needs for work. And you see how this guy is very happy. You know, so many guys are happy with the things that we can bring them. Because, unfortunately, they do not have enough money to buy what they need. So, seeing the joy in these eyes, you will understand how important our help is. So on behalf of our Ukrainian defenders, and as a soldier myself, I'm deeply grateful for your donations. You're saving us. You're literally saving us. So thank you all very much, we will win." Please keep supporting Ukraine and our defenders. They need all the help they can get 🙏 💳: linktr.ee/1t1f #DonateNow #StandWithUkraine #OneTeamOneFight @Dmitro7607 @DmytroKovalchu5

Neuroscientist Diagnoses Trump’s Brain Damage In his patterns of speech, inability to state the truth on just about any subject, and the apparent joy he gets out of watching people suffer ― something strange is going on ― a “dementing malignant narcissist.” Credit: Scott Carney

Dean: Your sons figured out how to profit off of the tariffs by buying refund rights for pennies on the dollar just as you were out there cheerleading the tariffs. As a result, federal taxpayers like my constituents may now owe your family hundreds of millions. I wonder if Trump is concerned about you and your family profiteering off of the illegal tariffs. Lutnick: That is false. It is not true.

Ukraine is winning.

.@RepJamesComer PLEASE READ. “Ghislaine Maxwell is a monster” was in court with Jeffrey Epstein and after he died 23 of his survivors read their victims impact statements accounting their r*pe and trafficking by Epstein and Maxwell. She groomed them. She taught them how to perform sex acts on him and she participated in the abuse. They all said Maxwell is a monster. The truth will come out. Do the right thing.

Everywhere you look, Trump, his family members, his donors, his political supporters & his cronies are looting the US treasury, getting paid by foreign entities for policy favors & getting no bid contracts. Criminal cases dropped & pardoned. The US govt is an ongoing crime scene.

Q: Is it true that your administration is considering sending 1,100 Afghans to the Democratic Republic of Congo? TRUMP: I don't know. I'd have to check

$100 to $600 = +500% $600 to $100 = −83.3% A "600% drop" can't exist in standard percentage terms. Stay in school, kids.

As Liz Dye puts it, the DOJ's case rests on the "grotesque" notion SPLC must "justify its existence" by manufacturing racism that is "in such short supply that it can only be generated with constant infusions of cash." publicnotice.co/p/trump-doj-wi…

"Even if this case implodes on impact with a federal court, it will still serve the larger conservative goal of recasting perpetrators of rightwing violence as the real victims." publicnotice.co/p/trump-doj-wi…
