🚨 A direct attack on clean water. Trump is gutting a rule that stopped coal companies from dumping toxic heavy metals (mercury, arsenic, lead) directly into rivers and streams. This isn't energy policy. This is a license to poison drinking water for the sake of profit.

Mark this moment. This is where the endgame begins—though it might take two years to play out. A President of the United States is openly linking the *Pentagon* and rigging elections for his party. He is framing an authoritarian takeover as something the *U.S. military* wants.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents kidnapped a U.S. citizen, while he was grabbing coffee, in Maryland. Samuel Guzmán repeatedly told agents he was born in the United States. He even offered to show his ID… and they didn’t believe him. Instead, they took his phone, wallet, and keys, shoved him in their car, illegally transported him to another location, questioned him about where he was “really” from, for 2 hours, and refused to let him call anyone. Then, once they realized he was a U.S. citizen… they let him go without explaining why he was detained. The Fourth Amendment protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures…. ICE agents don’t get to kidnap someone, from a coffee shop parking lot, without reasonable suspicion or probable cause. The Fifth Amendment guarantees due process…. Holding someone against their will while refusing to tell them why, or denying them access to contact anyone, is a constitutional violation. And the Equal Protection principles mean the government can’t target people simply because of their race, ethnicity, or the language they speak. If you’re okay with constitutional rights disappearing the moment someone has the wrong last name, or skin color… You were never defending law and order.

This is Trump’s Watergate. Today, the @nytimes released a truly stunning report on the Epstein cover-up by the White House.  Collusion, breaking the law, evading subpoenas—it’s all in there: - Trump quashing the files - The VP, COS, DOJ, FBI, and others colluding in the Situation Room to stop their release and compliance - Officials lying to the public  - Admin in-fighting and exits - Officials who appeared in front of Congress during this time Read the report here: nytimes.com/2026/06/10/magaz…

This is Sad! For almost 30 years, leaders from both parties have set politics aside to honor the women veterans who gave their lives for this country at Arlington National Cemetery. Then Trump and Hegseth shut it down. Why? Because the ceremony recognized women. This is an insult to every woman who wore the uniform, served with courage, and sacrificed for this nation. Yesterday, @demwomencaucus stood with the women veterans Trump and Hegseth tried to erase and held an event anyway. We see you. We honor you. We thank you. 🇺🇸

Trump said something outside a press gaggle that I don’t think enough people caught. A reporter called him out on the corruption. He gave three responses. 1. I have the right to do it. 2. He’s not stealing that much. A billion or two billion dollars. Not that much money. Classic Trump. 3. People don’t care. That’s the permission structure. Our collective apathy is what they’re using to justify everything happening in Washington right now. Please stand up and prove him wrong.

DOGE’s weaponization of the Social Security Administration is a staggering abuse of government power that demands investigation. The Trump admin is so disgustingly hellbent to advance its anti-immigrant agenda that it planned to falsely declare 2.7M living immigrants, permanent residents, and citizens as dead just to cut off their wages and banking. Can @elonmusk explain how mass identity fraud is “efficient?”
Breaking news: The Trump administration had plans to classify 2.7 million living people — including some U.S. citizens and lawful residents — as dead as part of its immigration enforcement efforts, according to a former senior Social Security executive. wapo.st/4fyguwV

Wow, if you read this you might get the impression that trump is getting ready to steal the next election! And you’d be right.
Trump's DOJ has canceled all election rights trainings, deleted a guide to prosecuting election offenses, and has refused to appoint a director of the Election Crimes branch.

Leaving this here, in case anyone is wondering why we have screwworm in the US for the first time since the 1960s. The DOGE stupidity from Trump and Rollins will end up COSTING taxpayers money.

From the Texas Tribune: After Mexican officials confirmed case of screwworm in Nov. 2024, USDA, under Joe Biden, closed southern ports of entry to live cattle imports to prevent spread of screwworm into U.S. Move also strained supply of cattle in Texas.... USDA reversed course in Feb 2025, after Trump took office, announcing opening of ports"

Not enough people know that the DOJ is keeping the part of Trump's IRS settlement in place that shields Trump and his family from IRS audits. That's *extraordinarily* corrupt. Don't let it fly under the radar. nytimes.com/2026/06/02/us/po…

Trump's proposed 2027 budget allocates $0 for Forest Service research, potentially shuttering hundreds of research facilities across the country. Many of the closing facilities cost the government just $1 a year in rent.
