The White House has gotten this image of Karoline Leavitt censured from Getty because it was “unflattering.”
Please don’t dare to share it!!!!!!

wild to read that there was one -- one! -- air traffic controller last night at LaGuardia a time when the government is asking for $200 billion for Trump's vanity war jalopnik.com/2129924/laguard…

This is where it was always headed... The armed men who came to Moms Demand Action rallies in 2013 to intimidate and silence moms now have government permission to silence and intimidate all Americans — in Minneapolis, at airports, soon at polling places.

Let me get this straight.
The leading Senate Republican walked into the White House Sunday with a bipartisan deal to end the TSA nightmare. Fund everything except ICE now, get TSA agents paid today, handle ICE separately.
Senate Republicans and Democrats said yes.
Trump said no.
Why? Because Trump is holding TSA workers’ paychecks hostage to try and force Congress to pass the SAVE Act, a voter suppression bill that would knock millions of eligible Americans off the voter rolls. He wants to make it harder for Americans to vote.
Like a petulant child flipping the board when he’s losing, Trump torched a bipartisan deal his own Senate leader handed him on a silver platter. His tantrum continues as he unleashes ICE agents into airports. Agents with zero screening training, zero TSA authority, and a good chance of making everything worse.
Democrats have been ready to fund TSA from day one. What we refuse to do is write a blank check for an ICE agency that gunned down two American citizens in Minneapolis and still demands the ability to kick down doors without a judge’s approval while hiding behind masks.
We will not pass the SAVE Act either. Call it what it is: the SAVE REPUBLICANS Act. Non-citizen voting is already illegal. It was illegal yesterday. It will be illegal tomorrow. This bill solves nothing except the Republican party’s losing electoral math.
Fund TSA. Reform ICE. End this today.
Trump is the one standing in the way.

BREAKING: unlike what Fox News tries to preach, Mamdani has just spoken out against Islamic extremism:
Mamdani: “Extremism and hatred of any kind will not be tolerated in our city. What we want to deliver to New Yorkers is a city that is safe.”
The Right just keeps trying to make this guy out to be some extremist Muslim when he keeps uncovering their false narrative.

I see "I Stand With Trump" trending.
Good for you. Here's how that translates.
You stand with a pedophile.
You stand with a rapist.
You stand with a pathological liar.
You stand with a sociopath.
You stand with an adulterer.
You stand with a fraud.
You stand with a malignant narcissist.
You stand with a wannabe dictator.
You stand with the most delicate snowflake in history.
You stand with a literal antichrist (anti everything Christ taught and stood for).

Calling it “the situation room at Mar-a-Lago” doesn’t morph that blanket fort into a SCIF.

At least 70 people, including some 60 children, were killed when U.S. and Israeli strikes hit the Shajareh Tayyebeh girls’ elementary school in Minab, southern Iran, according to the Fars News.
The attack reportedly struck during school hours, with about 170 girls inside. Videos show families screaming and digging through rubble as rescue crews searched for survivors. Tehran has vowed retaliation.
Dr. Foad Izadi of the University of Tehran told Al Jazeera: “We are fighting the epstein class that either rapes little girls or bombs little girls.”

President Trump tonight claimed that the man who killed Iryna Zarutska on transit in Charlotte last summer "came in through open borders.” The man charged with the murder is an American whose Facebook page says he was born in Charlotte, the Charlotte Observer reports. charlotteobserver.com/news/p…

This should be a bigger story.
ICE detained a father when he stepped outside his apartment to pick up dinner. His 6-year-old daughter was left alone. Neighbors later found her outside, crying in the street, asking for her father.
If any local law enforcement agency conducted an operation and left a child without supervision, there would be investigations, accountability, and consequences. That is what the public would rightly demand.
So where is the accountability here?
No matter your views on immigration policy, a 6-year-old child should never be left alone and vulnerable because of a federal enforcement action.
Basic standards of care and common sense still matter.

Asher Vonn, 19, from Plano, Texas, is a bigot and a racist who made a black boy drink piss.
Spread the word.
