O Man 🇺🇦🇺🇦🦩🦩 Slava Ukraini!

We've gone from 22 million acres of tall grass prairie to 22 million acres of corn and soybeans. We've transformed our rivers and streams into agricultural sewers. Am I getting my point across or is that too subtle?

When DOGE started cutting National Weather Service staff, there were also cuts in the number of daily balloon launches to gather weather data. The graphic on the left is what went up today at 8 am EDT (1200z). The graphic on the right is from May 2, 2023.

The Epstein crisis is back—and it’s escalating. New reports suggest Ghislaine Maxwell may be seeking a pardon, sparking outrage across Washington. Lawmakers are now demanding answers from the DOJ, including whether any discussions about clemency have taken place. At the same time, millions of pages of Epstein-related files remain missing or unreleased—and Pam Bondi has yet to comply with a subpoena. This isn’t going away.

Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE-02) - @RepDonBacon: We are one signature away to get a vote on the floor that would put sanctions on Russia and renew military aid to Ukraine. We need one more signature, and I can guarantee you there'll be a lot of Republicans who vote for that. We gotta push the discharge (petition) to make it happen. “I pray every Wednesday for victory in Ukraine. Hear, hear. I'm a believer. There's a God that listens to our prayers. I believe in the God of the Bible, and I pray for Ukraine's victory, and I pray for justice and judgment on Putin and his henchmen, and that God will come down and help Ukraine win this war much sooner rather than later. I'm so moved by the heart of so many Ukrainian believers that I've met. I was at a worship service yesterday, with some Ukrainian priests and some of the folks that were affiliated with him, and you could just see the faith. And when I was there, I saw the faith. So my second point, Ukraine's fighting for freedom, free markets, democracy, rule of law, and they wanna walk the talk of being part of the West. Folks who were involved with bribery and all that stuff, they're in jail now. Ukraine is wanting to be part and be aligned with the West. They don't wanna be part of the Russian shadow, and they wanna move away from that, and that's one of the reasons why Putin don't like it. They shows that his neighbor could be a democracy and free market. And I think this shows even more clearly that they (Russians) just want to reclaim old territory and they don’t care about Ukraine. They don't care about Ukrainians. They just wanna restore their old borders. But this is a fight against evil versus good. And America's gotta stand on the right side of this, on the side of good, which means we gotta help them with military weapons. We gotta help them with long-range precision F-16s with new radars, air defenses. And we've gotta put sanctions on Russia that we force the president to put on them. Cause I've not seen him do right here. So we are one signature away to get a vote on the floor that would put sanctions on Russia and renew military aid to Ukraine. And so talk to the folks you know. We need one more signature, and I can guarantee you there'll be a lot of Republicans who vote for that. We gotta push the discharge (petition) to make it happen. My heart is with you. My prayers are with the Ukrainians who are here. We want a victorious Ukraine that's aligned with the West. And I tell you a victorious Ukraine will be a leader in the EU. And they're gonna be a leader in NATO” - Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE-02) on Wednesday, April 22, 2026.

Joe Kent dropped a massive bombshell in his interview with Tucker Carlson: “One of Trump’s closest advisors who was advocating for us to not go to war with Iran and to rethink our relationship with Israel is suddenly assassinated and then we were told to stop investigating it.”

14 judges representing the entire Texas-Mexico border—led by a Republican—are demanding to have a seat at the table with DHS, urging them to consider technology rather than physical wall in some locations. DHS is still refusing to meet with elected officials, sheriffs, landowners and the public as wall construction pushes full-steam ahead.

I've been reporting on these other men for years -- most recently with the release of SDNY's prosecution memo and the FBI's reports in the files that name these men --the DOJ and FBI did little to investigate, except offer these powerful men and/or their attorneys proffers -- in other words, they treated the men with more respect than they treated his victims. Glad to see this CNN report.

This is exactly what we talked about on @ShawnRyanShow, literally at the same time as @RoKhanna was giving this speech. We must have a convention to propose an amendment! Get money out of politics!! The people can do this without Congress. This is the political revolution!

Take 82 seconds to see the unearthed memos showing how John Roberts went from crusading against “activist” judges… …to becoming one of the most aggressive activist judges in American history — in order to defend corporations and billionaires.

Coons to Bessent: Your Treasury lifted sanctions on Russian oil, giving them an extra $150M a day in revenue. Those funds are going not just to kill Ukrainians, but Russia's using its profits to support Iran with drones and intelligence to kill our troops.

The fact that the majority of Americans preferred republicans on the economy for so long has got to be one of the most successful propaganda campaigns in modern history because every time a republican gets in office they ruin the economy and everybody is worse off.

There is no way I can vote for any FISA bill with an FBI Director who appears to be a raging alcoholic, and who had his FBI agents query databases to spy on a reporter he didn’t like. Kash Patel is one of the main problems to any FISA solution.

Here’s the exact moment that police found cocaine on Steve Witkoff’s son Zach Witkoff, who also happens to be Donald Trump JR’s best friend as well as CEO of their crypto scheme partnership World Liberty Financial. Note that Steve Whitkoff is the top negotiator with Iran right now.

REPORTER: “What do you say to the American people who question how much longer this will take?” TRUMP: “You’re such a disgrace. Did you hear what I just said? How many years was Vietnam?” Trump is a disgrace and so is anyone that’s still defending him.

Trump is paying himself $9 million as the Ballroom "Contractor" Republicans can STFU about fraud for eternity!

Hey @jaketapper I still can’t find your book about Trump’s obvious mental decline, is it coming out soon? This demented sundowning rapist pedophile just can’t stay awake during daylight hours

Glad to see @CNN covering this. We need A LOT more of this. Thank you @PamelaBrownCNN !

There hasn’t been a single Cabinet meeting we’ve covered where Donald Trump didn’t fall completely asleep. There was no Biden meeting we covered where Biden EVER fell asleep. Weak. Tired. Old. Loser. Trump should resign immediately.

John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, and Neil Gorsuch belong in prison. Barrett, and Kavanaugh were appointed illegitimately. Remove the illegitimate six, expand the court to 13, and impose 18 year term limits and a binding code of ethics that is retroactive, which will remove Alito.

He was old, battling undiagnosed cancer at the time, but he was not senile or mentally incapacitated.
