President Donald Trump has previously demanded the pending bill to keep the government funded be sent to his desk promptly, without changes. Two Republicans have a different idea. On Monday, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) tweeted that she is prepared to mount a "standing filibuster" of the bill the Republican-controlled Senate sent to the House of Representatives. Luna is insisting that the SAVE Act – which would require voters provide proof of citizenship before being able to cast a ballot — be included in the House version of the bill. Luna insisted in her post that Trump supports including the SAVE Act in the final legislation. "Just left the White House. POTUS wants the SAVE America Act passed! Voter ID is number one," Luna tweeted. Luna's claim that Trump wants to add the controversial bill to a must-pass government funding package has not yet been corroborated by the president. Trump's latest position — which he posted to Truth Social Monday ev...

Expert explains how Trump can keep some Epstein files secret

Image
Even though President Donald Trump's Department of Justice (DOJ) has released millions of documents pertaining to convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein's two federal investigations, there are plenty of documents that still may never see the light of day. According to former Florida state attorney Dave Aronberg (also a former Democratic state senator), the DOJ has taken advantage of a glaring loophole in the Epstein Files Transparency Act to keep "millions" of pages of documents hidden from the public. On Monday, Aronberg told Substack host Jim Acosta – a former CNN anchor – that there are several tools the DOJ is deploying to shield the full Epstein files from American eyes. "They produced millions of pages, but there are still millions that they're keeping under their watch," he said. "And the reason why they're not producing it is because they're saying, 'well, it involves an ongoing criminal investigation.' Of course, the...

Performer debunks Trump's 'complete lie' about Kennedy Center repairs

Image
A long-time Kennedy Center performer spoke to The Hill on Monday, ripping Donald Trump's claims about the institution needing lengthy repairs as "a complete lie." On Sunday evening, Trump took to Truth Social to announce that the Kennedy Center would be shutting down for two years on July 4. This followed a "year review," which he said revealed that the center was "tired, broken, and dilapidated," necessitating a lengthy renovation process . “Financing is completed, and fully in place!” Trump's post read. “This important decision, based on input from many Highly Respected Experts, will take a tired, broken, and dilapidated Center, one that has been in bad condition, both financially and structurally for many years, and turn it into a World Class Bastion of Arts, Music, and Entertainment, far better than it has ever been before.” Despite his claims about the reasoning for the shutdown, the move was widely mocked and criticized as an effort to...

America finally reaches the breaking point as critics plan Trump's reckoning

Image
The facts are so damning that it’s unclear to me why moderate Democrats are being careful about their reaction to them. Renee Good was shot in the face. Alex Pretti was shot in the back. Their deaths were not accidental. They were not the result of poor or insufficient training . They were the result of intent . Why are moderates worried about seeming extreme when the context is murder by the state? In that setting, there’s no such thing as an overreaction. Call on Kristi Noem to resign. Call on Stephen Miller to resign. Call on the president himself to resign. The real danger is underreacting. Noem shouldn’t only be impeached and removed. She should be arrested and tried. In addition to murder, ICE and CBP are going house to house , kicking in doors, terrorizing people. It’s taking babies from mothers . It’s preventing fathers from grieving their dead sons . It’s letting sick kids taken from their parents die while in custody . These are crimes against humanity that everyone ...
