NEW: Trump accepted $37m worth of donated steel for his WH ballroom project from the Luxembourg-based company ArcelorMittal.
Days later, the WH made adjustments to Trump's tariffs that could benefit ArcelorMittal.

The NSA illegally spied on Americans for years after Snowden blew the whistle, according to a FOIA release.
This is exactly why Section 702, a warrantless surveillance authority, needs reform.

Until now I thought this so-called “peace proposal” was just another Russian info-op. Turns out it’s real and it’s pure capitulation. 🚫 Written by non-diplomats, it hands Putin a veto over #NATO and demands Ukraine give up territory he couldn’t conquer in four years of war. Why reward aggression?

It took me less then five minutes to cancel, and I told them why. It sounds like this pressure and consumer revolt is getting noticed, so keep it up.
And don't forget that Trump is all over the Epstein files. It's so bad, the entire GOP will destroy America, if that's what it takes, to protect him.

It's pretty easy to cancel your Disney+ subscription, and a coordinated, national day of cancellations would send a very clear message about our values as Americans.
Heard from a friend at Disney+ that there are multiple levels of freakout internally, both from internal dissatisfaction, concerns about subscription cancelations, and of course the big one: concern about a boycott spilling over into parks and cruises.
