Smiles, sneakers, and a community lifting kids up! Thank you adidas, Edison Elementary School, and Inside the Outdoors for making this day possible. Let’s keep giving these kids a shot that can’t be blocked.

Secretary Noem refused to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee last year and now tells us that she will be available in five weeks—should she still be DHS Secretary at that time. With all of the violence and deaths involving DHS, the Secretary is apparently in no hurry

Jim Allister's this isn't the Brexit I voted for #PMQs "The EU says that from July it plans to impose a €3 charge on small parcels coming into Northern Ireland" "What sort of government allows a foreign power to impose a tax on parcels coming into its own territory"

Rubio: We didn't remove an elected official. We removed someone who was not elected and was actually indicted. Paul: Indicted under our laws. Look, Bolsonaro says that da Silva is not really the president of Brazil. Our president said Biden wasn't really the president…

STEPHANOPOULOS: A foreign government official taking a major ownership stake in an incoming president's company -- how do you respond to those who say this is a serious conflict of interest? BLANCHE (lying): The Biden family did the same thing

There are MANY reasons why House Republicans are on track to WIN the midterms — including our extraordinary record of accomplishments, great candidates, and our record-setting fundraising numbers. This November, we’ll DEFY history and GROW our majority. 🇺🇸

Trump reversed decades of national security objections to selling advanced AI chips to UAE. National security experts were alarmed. But there was a secret. Before the deal, UAE had sent $187M to the Trumps and $31M to the Witkoffs in secret payments. Mind blowing corruption.

I’m no fan of Gerry Carroll but it was good to hear a politician set aside political opportunism to give an honest opinion on the treatment of Tim Gaston. Pretty certain there is no love lost but there was unusual honesty. Alliance should take note.

Russia is stopped on the battlefield and lost ground in the last month. Putin is losing a 1000+ soldiers a day in his WAR of CHOICE. Thus, like Hitler, he’s resorted to bombing cities & terrorizing civilians. The U.S. must provide more air defenses & long range strike weapons.

Putin completely disrespects Trump, expects him to be submissive; Trump always obliges. What is the reason? politico.eu/article/russia…

Trump: I hate even talking about ICE. 2 people out of tens of thousands and you get bad publicity. Host: But it was 2 Americans who died— Trump: We have the smallest trucks. We've been very tough on the waters Host: The waters? Trump: The waters where we knock out boats

$4 billion for Trump and his family. Higher prices for you.

Trump: I'm starting to get great polls on the economy. Llamas: The polls on the economy, they're not great. Trump: They should be great. Llamas: So why aren't they? Trump: I don't know

Trump: Essentially, the lawsuit has been won. I guess I won a lot of money. I’ll give 100% to charity. Reporter: You’re taking it out of the system. Trump: No, I’m putting it back into the system. I’m giving it to charity. Reporter: 38 trillion in debt and we’re taking 10

Disgusting that the federal government just admitted they are holding up funding for survivors because Trump’s feelings are hurt.

When Jeff Bezos bought the The Washington Post in 2013 I was glad because a modern newspaper needs owners with deep pockets. How shameful and outrageous that one of the world’s richest people should now preside over the massacre of so many good journalists’ jobs.

As #bbclaurak is trending, it is worth reminding ourselves that just 4 weeks ago, Laura had Mandelson on for the softest interview on her show. To add insult to injury, his client, Palantir’s Louis Moseley appeared as a pundit. Complicit?
