House Democrats largely voted against funding the Department of Homeland Security, despite the heightened threat situation amid the U.S. military operation in Iran.
There are mixed Democratic reactions as Trump taps Sen. Markwayne Mullin for DHS chief. Fetterman supports nomination, while other Democrats remain noncommittal on the pick.

For generations, communities in Southeast Asia have used the leaves of Mitragyna speciosa — kratom — brewed as a drink to relieve pain and steady mood.

These strikes have, thus far, inflicted grave damage, killing Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and many other senior officials. Iran’s fourth-rate navy has been mostly sunk, too. Tehran’s already limited conventional military capacity has also been significantly eroded. However, the […]
Virginia Democrats, including Gov. Abigail Spanberger, are again refusing to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials who want to deport a violent illegal immigrant who recently murdered a Fairfax County mother in cold blood. This is not the first time anti-ICE Democrats have gotten innocent people killed, and it won’t be the last unless […]
