A lawyer has now spoken separately to the 3 men who were w/ Salgado Araujo in the van when he was killed. All 3 contradict ICE's account. All 3 say no ICE vehicle was ever in front of them and that agent just got out of the car and started shooting from the side. No ICE agent was wearing a body cam.

Any senator who votes to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a pedophile protector.

Believing that billionaires and trillionaires are fighting for the working class requires an almost comical level of delusion.

Consumers be damned. This will drive up prices for years to come.

After leaving the Iowa House, @joemitchelliowa founded a lobbying firm to influence the Iowa House. You don't leave the fox in charge of the hen house. Joe is more of the same revolving door swamp that has been corrupting our politics for years now.

Every American — regardless of political party — should be horrified at yet another blatant effort by President Trump to eradicate every safeguard of free and fair elections. If Republicans remain silent in the face of his obvious attempts to rig the election, they are complicit in allowing our democracy to crumble.

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's @JRogalskiKHOU found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.

So much for working for Iowa beef producers huh, @ZachNunn? While you hide from #IA03 Iowans, attend county fairs but fail to hold a single public town hall meeting, and pander to Trump, USDA beef export sales tank. You're doing NOTHING for Iowa farmers, but @SarahforIowa will

USDA had to revise its late June U.S. beef export numbers DOWN 90%. Quite the "error."

@maddenifico I haven’t bought beef in months. I’m not paying those prices.

Trump's Beef Catastrophe: Incompetence, Blithering Idiocy, and Blatant Lies Have Obliterated America's Beef Industry In yet another humiliating display of incompetence, the authoritarian Trump regime has turned America's once-mighty beef industry into a national punchline. After months of touting "record" export numbers as proof that his chaotic trade policies were somehow working, the U.S. Department of Agriculture has been forced to admit it inflated beef export sales by a staggering 90 percent. According to a bombshell Reuters report, the USDA bragged in early July that U.S. exporters had sold more than 126,000 metric tons of beef to foreign buyers for a sales period ending in late June. The actual number? Just 12,000 metric tons. That's not a rounding error. That's a catastrophic fabrication that would embarrass a high-school bookkeeper. The fake numbers were so absurd they should have raised red flags immediately. The USDA claimed record sales of more than 38,000 metric tons to Chile and over 32,000 metric tons to Italy — countries that aren’t even major markets for American beef. Reality? A pathetic 367 tons to Chile and 350 tons to Italy. Fourteen other countries saw their numbers slashed as well. This isn't just bureaucratic sloppiness. This is the Trump regime's signature brand of hype, lies, spin, and propaganda colliding with economic reality — and the American cattle industry is paying the price. U.S. beef prices have hit record highs this year thanks to tight cattle supplies and strong domestic demand. Exports have been declining since 2022. Higher prices have priced American beef out of the global market, as commodity analyst Austin Schroeder bluntly told Reuters: "We're priced out of the world market to a certain extent. It wouldn't make a lot of sense for that big of an export number." Meanwhile, domestic supplies are so low the U.S. has had to ramp up beef imports. Earlier this year, a screwworm outbreak forced Texas to declare a state of disaster, further hammering producers already squeezed by Trump-era chaos. Instead of acknowledging the mess his administration created — from trade wars that disrupted markets to regulatory neglect that left ranchers vulnerable — Trump and his sycophants simply let the USDA pump out fantasy numbers and call it a win. This is the same pattern we've seen across the board: brag about successes that don't exist, then quietly revise the data when caught. Only this time it's not some abstract economic indicator. It's the backbone of rural America — cattle ranchers, feedlot operators, processors, and exporters — watching their industry get trashed by incompetence and covered up with lies. The revised numbers aren't just embarrassing, they're devastating. They confirm what ranchers have been screaming for months: America's beef sector is in serious trouble, and the people running the show are too busy tweeting victory to notice or care. The only question left is how many more "record" numbers will have to be walked back due to Trump being a serial lying sociopath who is too psychologically fragile to handle the truth.

America's Secret Police in action. Time to ID that guy who let his mask slip.

ICE slam man's head against stone wall—send him to hospital with fractured skull. Man's hands were already behind his back. Agents then physically assault legal observers—soon as they realize they're caught on video. Threaten to shoot witnesses with taser—even firing it up.

How about some oversight into Trump and @DAGToddBlanche interfering in the Jeffrey Epstein ranch investigation, @ChuckGrassley? Your claim that your oversight is the same no matter who is in the White House is pure bullshit.

If you’re not alarmed you’re not paying attention. propublica.org/article/federa…

All the signals are flashing red, the latest being @POTUS's summary dismissal of the remaining Federal Election Assistance Commission members. Put that together with political hack Pulte's odious appt as DNI; election deniers in the most sensitive oversight positions; Trump's exec order on mail-in voting, and potential use of the Postal Service as a weapon of subversion; his pathological prioritization of the SAVE act, which would be the most powerful voter suppression tool in generations; and his persistent, unfounded claims of election fraud, which he uses to justify extraordinary federal interventions. On the square, the @GOP would take a beating this fall, largely because of Trump's unpopularity. So he's setting up Plan B--do whatever you need to do to win. Anything. Anyone who says "Well, he wouldn't do THAT" hasn't paid attention. He's already proven he will! So the period AFTER the Midterms may be even more turbulent than the run up to them. The courts are going to be very busy this fall.
