Pete Hegseth’s focused on the cost of the bomb. I’m more interested in the size of the economic crater.⁣ ⁣ And that crater may be 10 to 100 times larger.⁣ ⁣ For many families, that translates into thousands — perhaps tens of thousands — of dollars.

Days after hosting President Donald Trump, Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin, as Beijing seeks to project itself as a stabilizing force on the world stage.

UPDATE: I was back at 26 Federal Plaza for my weekly oversight visit today after ICE openly flouted the law on Tuesday by making a courthouse arrest right after a federal judge explicitly banned them. Officers confirmed no new arrests have been made since that unlawful detention.

This government has spent years neglecting our public education system through chronic underfunding. Now, they are sabotaging students' future by slashing OSAP and leaving students stranded. It’s a pattern of neglect that proves they simply don't care about our children. #onpoli #onted #saveosap

Po co Nawrocki spotkał się z Orbanem, przyjacielem zbrodniarza Putina? Albo spłaca polityczne długi albo pojechał po instrukcje. Czy ta sytuacja wreszcie otworzy wam pisowcy oczy?

This is disgusting.

🗳️ Texas showed up. Turnout was strong this primary — proof that participation shapes elections. Some races head to a May 26 runoff. In Texas, if no one clears 50%, the top two advance. Runoffs are often decided by far fewer voters. Democracy continues. #TXVotes
