For the record, the president of the United States is now simultaneously claiming that he has won the war, is currently winning the war, needs help to win the war, and needs no help to win the war. All to destroy the nuclear program he claims to have already destroyed last year.

JUST IN: Trump’s handpicked Commission of Fine Arts approved a general design for a 24k gold commemorative coin for the U.S. 250th anniversary featuring Trump’s image. “I motion to approve this as presented, and with the strong encouragement that you make it as large as possible, all the way to three inches in diameter,” the commission’s vice chair, James McCrery, said. Separately, the Treasury has said it plans to issue a $1 Trump coin that the Commission of Fine Arts approved in January. Straight-up banana republic stuff.

Sen. Warnock: 8.2 million people registered to vote in Georgia, the Republican Secretary of State found 20 instances of noncitizens who were registered, and only 9 attempted to vote. The SAVE Act would disenfranchise 150,000 Georgians for every instance of a noncitizen voting in the last decade

ICE detain 7 year old girl from Canada—who suffers from severe autism. She's traumatized in loud & overcrowded cell—no reason she can't be at home with her legal stepfather. "They are being unlawfully detained," he said. "My wife and daughter's papers are good and up to date." He provided his wife's social security documentation—that prove she is a lawful alien with a right to work in the U.S. Mother and child are currently locked up at the Ursula ICE detention center in McAllen, Texas—notorious for having child "cages."

Absolutely wild statement from Tulsi Gabbard, the U.S. Director of National Intelligence 👇 “It is not the intelligence communities responsibility to determine what is and isn’t an imminent threat.”

A three-year-old company operating out of a WeWork with reportedly fewer than five employees is being considered for up to $25 BILLION in nuclear energy funds from a trade deal Trump brokered with Japan. The company has never built a nuclear plant or completed a nuclear project of any kind. What does this company bring to the table? The father of its CEO donated $2 million+ to Trump and the GOP, and one of its advisors is a former RNC co-chair and Trump appointee. In this Administration, that’s apparently all you need.

The U.S. job market is the worst in decades. And the main cause of this is completely incompetent government.

Anne Applebaum nails it:

President Trump just signed an EO to "fight fraud." But 21 inspectors general offices remain vacant after he fired 17 watchdogs within days of taking office, and convicted fraudsters are being granted clemency. You can't fight corruption by dismantling oversight.

GOP: the mail is secure enough to receive your photo ID, social security card, your debit and credit cards, your stimulus checks, and your tax returns Also GOP: the mail is not safe enough for voting

A reminder that Democrats want TSA agents to be paid. We’ve supported targeted funding to keep airport security workers on the job. What we won’t do is sign off on a DHS funding bill that lets ICE continue to terrorize our communities. Congressional Republicans are refusing to separate the two for political gain.
