Take a close look at this. NBC News published a major investigation this afternoon. Six reporters. Six named sources inside the US government. The story breaks open something the Trump administration has been hiding for two months. The damage Iran did to American military bases

There's a fundamental rejection of free expression baked into this. Jake Tapper and members of the media aren't calling for violence against the President. Criticism is not incitement. The idea that anyone critical of a president bears responsibility for political violence

By God, this country NEEDS a huge palatial White House ballroom, and the sooner the better, Lindsey Graham tells us. Why can't Americans see it for the top priority it should be?!?

The Israeli government, like the Trump admin, is determined to turn every long-time ally into an adversary - something that will haunt both countries for decades.

This exchange between Richard Blumenthal and Trump’s judicial nominees is utterly astounding. If you can watch this and still think this country isn’t falling into authoritarianism and fascism under Donald Trump, then you are not being honest with yourself.

BREAKING: Trump just told Congress he doesn't need war authorization due to the shaky ceasefire with Iran. Today is the war's 60th day — the deadline the War Powers Resolution of 1973 designates for a president to get authorization. There's zero consensus Trump can do this.

No one has ever explained to me how what I did in Iraq and Afghanistan made anyone’s lives better in Sullivan, Maine. Our foreign wars are good for a lot of people: defense contractors, draft-dodging politicians who want to feel tough, Benjamin Netanyahu. But not for us.

The Epstein files contain allegations that Donald Trump sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl in the 1980s — claims the FBI took seriously enough to interview the accuser four times. So why is Trump’s DOJ still withholding the records?

JUST IN: A Trump judicial nominee was asked point blank: is Trump eligible to run for a third term? Their answer: “I would have to review the actual wording…” Sen. Chris Coons then asked every nominee in the room to confirm the Constitution bars a third term. Silence. Every

Four students at Kent State University, Ohio, were killed today 1970 by National Guard troops, who also wounded nine others, as they protested Nixon for expanding the Vietnam war into Cambodia. Do any of you remember this day? If so, how did you react to the violence?

Rep. Jamie Raskin’s investigation revealed that 23 of the top 25 buyers who bought VIP access to Trump through his crypto scheme were likely foreign nationals. The regime wants to hide this. Help us expose the truth: dworkinsubstack.com/p/we-investiga…
