I’m surprised Trump hasn’t been able to get Iran to surrender since he’s had all the cards for 9 weeks and they’ve been begging him for a deal every day.

Today, two U.S. destroyers transited the strait into the Persian Gulf without being harassed by the Iranians. It’s possible they will anchor in the Emirates to reinforce anti-aircraft defenses. And why didn't Iran stop these vessels? Because, by all indications, there is an agreement where Iran pretends nothing passes through the strait, and the U.S. pretends no Iranian ships are leaving the region. As I reported yesterday, about 25-35 Iranian ships loaded with oil bypassed the American blockade. Why? The U.S. priority is to maintain the flow of oil in the international market, and stopping Iranian exports would only worsen that. Obviously, this deal includes Iran quietly allowing the passage of several tankers. So, one side pretends to run a naval blockade against Iranian exports, while the other pretends the strait is closed to American military ships. Iran is the clear loser in this deal, giving Trump the argument that the operation freedom project, he claims to be implementing is actually opening the strait by force. Video ilustrativo

@covie_93 And there in a nutshell is the problem with raced based outcomes. You only understand that Justice Thomas got to his position in life because of his race. But if his view of the Constitution were yours you would be ok with that.

Clarence Thomas walked through every open door created for him because of his race then shut them all behind him so no one else can get the same opportunities he did.

$6.69 for gas is just absurd. Thank you for nothing to the clowns running our country into the ground

I’ll say it until the cows come home.  The SAVE Act is voter suppression. Mail-in voting is done in red and blue states alike. It’s safe and secure.   I'm still a hell NO on the SAVE Act.

FACT: If Democrats were the ones rigging elections, Trump never would have been President.

Awful. Trump dragged us into war with Iran, sending fuel prices through the roof, and now one of the few affordable options to fly - one started right here in Detroit - is gone. And not a single Republican stopped him when they had the chance.

STRAIT STINGS SPIRIT... Spirit Airlines begins ‘wind-down’, cancels all flights over fuel crisis... Spirit’s restructuring plan assumed jet fuel costs of about $2.24 a gallon in 2026 and $2.14 in 2027, but prices had climbed to about $4.51 a gallon by the end of April.

@Scaramucci Why are you trying to beat Trump. He’s not running again. You had your shot. Let it go.

Here’s the cold truth about how you beat Donald Trump. 👇🏼 You put up a mediocre candidate. A mediocre Democratic candidate beat a sitting president. Trump’s entire rise was powered by two weak opponents: Hillary Clinton & Kamala Harris. We have to look at that objectively and now comes the interesting part. The Republican Party is heading for an intellectual civil war. Because the MAGA movement is a personality cult — and the personality is leaving. Nobody else in that party can carry that mantle the way Trump can. Now we’re in an ideological fight for the future of the party. And remember — he has never cracked 50% approval. He’s beatable. He was always beatable. The question now is what comes next.

I don’t trade stocks, don’t take corporate PAC money, and publish my official schedule for all to see. Americans deserve transparency and accountability. I’m fighting to make this the standard in Washington, so there’s never any doubt your leaders are working for you.

The Supreme Court should be a check on the president, and instead they’re rubber stamping his authoritarian agenda. I won’t give Donald Trump an inch when I get to the U.S. Senate.

Our democracy is under attack. From the Supreme Court gutting the Voting Rights Act to the unchecked power of big money, we’re living through trying times. I’ve signed onto legislation to help restore our democratic institutions because we can and must do better.

Democrats can pick up 19 seats vs the Republicans picking up 7 after the VRA was gutted. If you're in a blue State, rally your State Government! If you're in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Oregon, Washington State, you need to flip some State legislative seats this November!

@CultrHack @GOP What you are saying is that blacks can only get elected to Congress in highly crafted districts. This is insulting and definitely wrong. You falsely conclude that all the increase in black participants in Congress is due to gerrymandered districts.

Why was the 1965 Voting Rights Act so crucial? People forget the history, but check this chart: for 90 years after Reconstruction in the 1870s, there were basically no Blacks in Congress. On purpose. This is the cruel racist history SCOTUS & @GOP Congress are trying to resurrect.

The gutting of the Voting Rights Act is shocking not just in its immorality but in the sheer and deliberate absurdity of the majority opinion. npr.org/2026/04/30/nx-…

@LeslieProll Not interested in your condemnation but would be interested in understanding why you think district lines should be drawn based on race. Isn’t that discrimination based on race?

"The problem of the 20th century is the problem of the color line." W.E.B. Du Bois in 1903. And sadly the words still haunt us in 2026.
