This solves nothing. It’s nothing more than peacocking toughness. This government is not serious, they are not serious people. They behave like children, incompetent children. What a joke. We need a competent gov run by professionals

BASH: Are ICE agents going to move into American airports starting tomorrow? HOMAN: Yes. I'm currently working on the plan. We'll execute tomorrow. BASH: Are ICE agents even remotely trained to handle security at airports? HOMAN: ICE agents receive high-level training.

It's hard to imagine a dumber political strategy to respond to long TSA lines than sending personnel from an agency that 2/3s of Americans don't like and declaring you won't fund TSA unless the Senate passes the politically toxic SAVE Act.

It’s remarkable that 40% still believes he acts ethically but a 15 point drop is really significant. Note Black Protestants had him figured out from jump.

We could extend the popular ACA tax credits TODAY— we have the votes.
Instead, the Trump administration is choosing to spend $2 billion of American taxpayer dollars *per day* on a war in Iran nobody wants.
Health care is a human right & it's well past time we treat it that way.

This is what a crater looks like in politics. By every key objective measure this is clearly a failed presidency.

Now we are moving into Sea Change territory and why they are trying so hard to rig the election with the SAVE Act. The only thing they are trying to save is Trump being held accountable.

11%--Largest D lead for House elections I've seen. NEW Quinnipiac Poll: If the election were held today, 51% of voters would want to see Democrats win control of the US House, while 40% would want Republicans to win. poll.qu.edu

This is just racist&sexist w/out pretense. This is antithesis of the merit BS they’re always camouflaging their white supremacy behind. They earned promotions but their opportunities are being taken. Chilling effect for black soldiers at war nytimes.com/2026/03/27/us/… via @NYTimes

FCC Chair: Trump is winning. Look at the results—PBS and NPR defunded. Joy Reid, Sleepy-Eyed Chuck Todd, Jim Acosta, John Dickerson are gone. Colbert is leaving. CBS is under new ownership, and soon enough CNN will have new ownership as well.

What we see now in the chaos of Middle East, roweling global econ panic, is exactly why those w/no understanding/ experience in diplomacy &complexity of foreign policy should never be in charge of world’s greatest military. Children think they simply can smash (fury) all problems

The crowd was mostly male and very young; several attendees told me they were in high school. A few wore the “America First” baseball caps popular with followers of Nick Fuentes, the influential white nationalist troll.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Hillary Clinton just accused the Trump Administration of “having something to hide” with regards to the Epstein files. Wow.

In a message to his colleagues, former deputy sports editor at The Washington Post, Matt Rennie, said it best. “Whenever and wherever we land — and we will — we’ll be comin’. And hell is comin’ with us.” dailytarheel.com/article/opinio…

A year later, however, the honeymoon is over. Black supporters sought prosperity and governance, but the Trump administration has mostly delivered chaos; they needed belonging but found hostility.

@DashDeCosta I don’t blame him for not being around today. Didn’t get support when he was kneeling; not from white players AND not from Black players. Right on Kaepernick

The Super Bowl is being played in his former home stadium, at a societal moment that echoes the issues he forced football fans to confront. So why is he out of mind?
