This should be getting FAR more attention. An American oil company with ties to Trump’s orbit is moving forward with plans to drill for oil in Greenland. Some drilling-related equipment has already been brought ashore even though Greenland says the necessary approvals have NOT been granted.

According to NYT, Trump was hidden in a catering cart and wheeled onto a military jet for a secret flight out of Turkey last month. 😂 We’re sorry, but we cannot get past the catering cart part. Imagine being Secret Service and hearing, “The eagle is in the chafing dish.”
💯
Aww, RIP Jackie. 💔 The beloved bald eagle whose life was followed by millions through the Big Bear Lake live webcam has died. She will be missed!
Trump has issued a new executive order calling for American children to be routinely immunized against just 11 diseases, down from the 17 currently recommended by the CDC. The move marks another major shift away from long-standing federal vaccine guidance.
Reminder to vote tomorrow in South Carolina, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Vermont, and Alabama! And thank you in advance to everyone heading to the polls and to all the poll workers!
Something shocking happened. Trump finally admitted the contractor was at fault for the Reflecting Pool.
Typo, but also, what point is he trying to make? We could have leaders who aren’t in the Epstein files? Honestly, that sounds perfect.
Good news! The Senate adjourned this morning without taking steps toward passing the voting restrictions bill.
Mark your calendars: August 13 at 1 p.m. ET. The public can call in and listen as a federal court holds a hearing over the Justice Department’s compliance with court orders involving the Epstein files.
ICE has decided it’s now going to attack the global press, including the Associated Press (AP), because they are reporting the truth. This administration will stop at nothing to prevent the press from telling Americans what’s actually happening.
New Jersey is launching a civil rights investigation into Delaney Hall, the state’s largest immigration detention facility, following reports of poor conditions and deaths.
While everyone was asleep, the Senate confirmed Todd Blanche as attorney general in a 50–49 vote.
It’s extremely easy to explain all of Trump’s posts calling the resistance “communist.” If you look at where things stand, their party no longer represents the “law and order” message it once claimed. Trump is so associated with Epstein, no one is sure if it’s the Epstein list or the Trump list.
This is all he does now, run to the Supreme Court whenever he doesn’t get his way. It feels like every day there’s another “emergency” request. Now the Trump administration says it will appeal the federal court ruling blocking construction of the White House ballroom project to the US Supreme Court.
Trump has nominated Dennis Kirk, a former White House official and one of the authors of Project 2025, to serve as the Interior Department’s inspector general, the independent watchdog responsible for investigating waste, fraud, abuse, and misconduct.
A win! A federal appeals court has blocked the Trump administration from moving forward with its proposed White House ballroom, ruling that construction cannot begin without congressional authorization.
Some good news for gray wolves! Senator Cory Booker blocked an effort to fast-track legislation that would have stripped gray wolves of their federal protections under the Endangered Species Act.
The Trump administration really seems to be all about asking people to carry out unlawful orders.
The Trump administration announced that it is moving forward with plans to eliminate hundreds of federal regulations governing Head Start, a 61-year-old program that provides early education and support to some of the nation’s lowest-income children. The proposal would strip away many long-standing
Some good news! Senators Adam Schiff and Sheldon Whitehouse have introduced a Congressional Review Act resolution to overturn the Trump administration’s rule that removed habitat destruction from the definition of “harm” under the Endangered Species Act.
The Senate Homeland Security Committee voted along party lines, 8–5, to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress.

A shout out to everyone defending the last ancient cottonwood in Arizona. 💚✊
Mainstream media isn’t talking about it, but bulldozers and construction crews have descended upon Texas’ Big Bend National Park as the Trump administration moves forward with its border barrier project. The project will permanently damage one of our nation’s greatest natural treasures.
A federal judge has officially allowed the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for about 330,000 Haitians who have been living and working legally in the United States for years.
A disappointing decision. A federal judge reluctantly dismissed the remaining criminal charges against eight Oath Keepers charged with seditious conspiracy in the Jan. 6 attack after the Justice Department requested the case be thrown out.
Let’s see if Susan Collins stands by her “concerns”, or if she folds like she always does.
Thank you to everyone who voted today. And a special thank you to everyone who volunteered and helped at the polls! 💚
Well, this isn’t going to be good. We all know how this will likely go. The Supreme Court has announced that one of the first cases it will hear when its new term begins in October is a major climate change lawsuit. Boulder County, Colorado, is seeking millions of dollars from fossil fuel
The Trump administration may have agreed to scrap the proposed $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund, but there’s a major loophole. The order rescinds the fund for now, but it may not permanently amend or terminate the underlying settlement that created it.
