🚨 BREAKING: Rep. Joyce Beatty says claims of a “unanimous” vote to rename the Kennedy Center the Trump-Kennedy Center are false. Beatty, an ex officio board member, says she was on the call, repeatedly muted, and never allowed to speak, object, or vote — despite the White House

Today I received FOUR death notifications for people in ICE custody. That's 30 deaths since Trump took office. It's appalling & unacceptable. ICE is required—by law—to ensure detainees are safe & their basic needs are met. It's clear this isn't the case. We NEED answers.

JFK didn't name the Kennedy Center after himself. Congress did, two months after he was assassinated, as a tribute. Eisenhower started it, the Kennedy's raised the money for it. Johnson designated it.

ICE detain pregnant woman who gives birth in custody—take her baby away after just 2½ days. Kept separated from her baby for 35 days now—even after all charges against her were dropped. She is willing to do anything to be reunited with her baby—even if that means self deporting

This paper from Harvard and MIT quietly answers the most important AI question nobody benchmarks properly: Can LLMs actually discover science, or are they just good at talking about it? The paper is called “Evaluating Large Language Models in Scientific Discovery”, and instead

Actually the US approval has steeply declined globally since Trump took office.
Trump says in a speech tonight: “One year ago our country was dead. We were absolutely dead. Our country was ready to fail. Totally fail. Now we’re the hottest country anywhere in the world. And that’s said by every single leader I’ve spoken to over the last five months.”

She is single-handedly destroying the reputation of the network news organization.
Scoop: After an underwhelming ratings performance for Bari Weiss’ town hall with Erika Kirk, the CBS News editor in chief quietly delayed a planned address to staffers about the network’s future, pushing it back to January instead https://t.co/igV9CJmj54

This is actually directly counter to Jesus' teaching of "love thine enemies."
Franklin Graham's message at the Department of War's Christmas worship service at the Pentagon yesterday: "But did you know that God also hates? Do you know that God also is a God of war? Many people don't want to think about that or forget that."

MAGA Kansas mayor won reelection with 83% of vote—now ICE wants to deport him. "I always loved Trump, this is unfair," said Mayor Jose Ceballos. Voted for Trump 3 times—and "always voted for all the Republicans" since 1991. Said voting with a green card was "honest mistake"

Wow. Conservative NYTimes columnist David Brooks — who last month wrote scathing piece attacking Democrats over their effort to release the Epstein files — is in the files (photographed here at Epstein’s estate). He did not disclose his relationship with Epstein in the article.

The Kennedy Center was named after my uncle, President John F Kennedy. It was named in his honor. He was a man who was interested in the arts, interested in culture, interested in education, language, history. He brought the arts into the White House, and he and my Aunt Jackie

Utterly innumerate.
ROBERTS: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you to take their product. So it raises the question -- how much of last night's speech was hyperbole? LUTNICK: No. What he's saying is if a drug was

"Jackson was often called 'The People's President' for championing the common man, but was unjustifiably treated unfairly by the Press, but not as viciously and unfairly as President Abraham Lincoln and President Donald J. Trump would, in the future, be." Impeachable grammar.
Here's an image of Trump's plaque on Andrew Jackson that I have obtained in which he somehow inserted himself into Truly incredible stuff

When Russian troops occupied Irpin on the outskirts of Kyiv in February 2022, they threw Bibles into the street and burned them – because they were written in Ukrainian. People on Capitol Hill should bear that in mind when being lobbied by the Russian Orthodox Church.
Meanwhile, Russian priests are back on the Hill. I just bumped into one of them on the House side. Today, representatives of the Russian Orthodox Church are once again on Capitol Hill. Claiming to speak for a diverse faith coalition, they are pushing false allegations of
