But this is not a mere matter of He Said/She Said. Because we have a video. And it refutes the Trump/Noem version in almost every respect. The video also reminds us that incidents like this are not a one-off. They are the inevitable result of a deliberate policy of fear, force,

Compelling. Do ICE agents wear body cams? They should. We're a nation of laws. If they do, who will confiscate them? Kash Patel's FBI?

This is an old-school extortion racket ... done right out in the open. The clueless Capo dei Capi is bragging about it. Made members @SenateGOP, @HouseGOP, @LeaderJohnThune and @SpeakerJohnson have nothing to say. #Omertà
TRUMP plays hardball with French President Macron on drug prices: “I said ok here’s the story, Emmanuel. If on Monday you have’t agreed to every single thing that we want, I’m putting a 25% tariff on every thing coming out of France!” “He said, ‘no, no, no, no, you can not do

Did Donald Trump vote for himself in 2016? Or 2020? Or 2024? Did he voluntarily show his ID before voting? You'd think. He's a big believer in voter ID. How about @GOP electeds? And his supporters – especially the ones who work during the day?
“You ought to have Voter ID. You ought to insist on it.” “The only reason somebody doesn’t want that is because they want to cheat.” — @POTUS to House Republicans Pass the SAVE Act. Secure the vote.

I wouldn't trust this grifter with a jar of pennies. "This Oil will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, as President of the United States of America ..." @SenateGOP and @HouseGOP may as well resign.

BREAKING: BREAKING: 2016 video of Pete Hegseth exposes staggering hypocrisy: He said the military must refuse unlawful orders, the very stance he is now punishing Sen. Kelly for taking. Make sure everyone sees this.

Happy Monday. Before we succumb to the amnesia of Trump’s Upside Down World, let’s take a moment to remember what happened five years ago. Because the shame of that day endures, and its consequences are all around us. https://t.co/o9iZ6DqzEf

I can’t begin to tell you how insane this is. He did not inform Congress but he’s saying he informed the oil companies. Keep in mind who he means. The billionaire mega donor that just got control of Citgo. Our service members were used directly to move the interests of Trump’s
Reporter: Did you speak with the oil companies before the operation? Did you tip them off? Trump: Before and after. They want to go in and they’re going to do a great job.

No Kings demonstrations won't do it now. @SenateGOP @HouseGOP @HouseDemocrats @SenateDems better get their act together and assert themselves, even if it means breaking some rules.
Rubio: This is not the kind of mission you can do congressional notification on. Trump: Congress will leak. We don't want leakers.

Trump has tried to make this about drugs. This is about oil. And not just a little. Venezuela has the world's largest proven oil reserves. Those reserves are in our hemisphere. Handy.
