🚨 BREAKING – NYT confirms what we already knew:

As deadly floods swallowed Central Texas, key National Weather Service offices were understaffed; leaving local emergency managers flying blind while lives were on the line.

While billionaires buy tax-deductible jets, we can’t even fund the boots on the ground to warn families their homes are about to disappear underwater.
The New York Times confirms what we already reported:

As deadly floods swallowed Central Texas, key National Weather Service offices were unfilled, emergency managers were flying blind and families died.

This wasn’t a storm failure.
This was a government failure.

The same politicians who slash forecasts fund private jet tax breaks.

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” lets billionaires write off 100% of a jet’s cost in one year.

Meanwhile, 24 young girls drowned at Camp Mystic, because we couldn’t afford radar balloons.

Every jet deduction is a gravestone in disguise.Image
Kerr County lost 67 people in one flood.
21 were children.

Warnings were wrong. Forecasts failed.

Why?

Because the Weather Service was gutted, while Congress poured gasoline on the ultra-rich.

When billionaires board their tax-deductible planes,
the rest of us are left to drown.Image
This was the cost of austerity.
Every empty forecaster seat was a decision.

Every drowned child was a consequence.

We don’t lack money, we lack priorities.
And until we reverse the rot, the floods will keep coming.

🚨 JUST IN: The man who built the ICE-tracking app just dared Trump’s entire administration to come for him.

“Go ahead. Demonize me. Demonize the app. It’s called the First Amendment, look it up.”

That’s the energy. You don’t need a badge or a bench to defend the Constitution, sometimes all it takes is a server and a spine.
🚨 THREAD: ICE-Tracking App Creator DARES Trump Admin — “Look up the First Amendment.”

Here’s the full story behind the viral video of Joshua Aaron, the developer who told Trump’s team to bring it on — and why it matters more than ever:

🧵 Image
“Go ahead. Demonize me. Demonize the app. It’s called the First Amendment, look it up.”

Joshua Aaron created ICEBlock, a mobile app that warns communities when ICE agents are nearby.

Now the Trump admin wants him silenced. Image

When the American empire finally collapses, historians won’t be stunned by the greed of the elite; They’ll be stunned by the loyalty of the poor.

The working class didn’t just vote against their own interests. They worshipped the billionaires robbing them.

They slashed their own benefits, gutted their own healthcare, and cheered while the rich wrote off private jets as tax deductions.

Not because it helped them.
But because they were told it would hurt someone else.

And that, right there, is how you rig a democracy without ever breaking a single law.
The working class didn’t just vote against their own interests.

They worshipped the billionaires robbing them.

Defended their yachts.
Backed their tax breaks.

And turned on anyone who tried to level the playing field.
Meanwhile, the rich wrote off private jets as business expenses.

They stashed fortunes overseas.
And laughed.

Because the same people starving under their policies were waving flags for them.

🚨 BREAKING: Iranian hackers are claiming they’ve stolen nearly 100GB of emails belonging to Donald Trump.
We’re talking presidential communications, potential classified intel, private business dealings, campaign operations, even personal kompromat.

And this isn’t coming from Anonymous or some Reddit fringe.

This is being attributed to state-aligned Iranian actors.
Trump once laughed at cyberattacks against his opponents.

He even invited foreign interference in 2016.

Now the shoe may be on the other foot and if this leak is real, it could detonate inside both the Trump campaign and the national security establishment.

🚨 FACT: ICE now has a $160 billion budget.

That’s more than the entire United States Marine Corps.

We’re not funding immigration enforcement; we’re funding a domestic military to hunt busboys and break up families.
ICE isn’t tracking terrorists or cartel leaders.

They’re raiding restaurants, construction sites, and churches.

They’re dragging fathers from their kids at bus stops and deporting students mid-semester.
And how do they justify this bloated war chest?

“Illegals are draining the system.”

Meanwhile:

-Medicare is being cut.
-SNAP benefits are gutted.
-Tax cuts for billionaires roll on.

This isn’t about savings. It’s about scapegoating.

🚨 BREAKING: Trump now openly calling for the deportation of U.S. citizens.

“We have a lot of bad people … many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too.”

That’s not immigration policy.
That’s fascism with a passport scanner.

He’s not talking about “illegals” anymore.
He’s talking about you. About anyone who disagrees. About journalists. Activists. Protesters. Citizens.
This isn’t about border security anymore.
This isn’t about undocumented immigrants.

He’s not saying “deport criminals.”
He’s saying deport citizens; if they’re “bad” enough.
Trump’s entire political shift is clear now:

📌 Jail your opponents
📌 Deport your critics
📌 Silence the press
📌 Use ICE as a personal weapon

We’ve seen this playbook before. Just not in America.

Until now.

🚨 BREAKING: Elon Musk responds to Trump:

“So tempting to escalate this. So, so tempting. But I will refrain for now.”

That’s not a peace offering, it’s a warning shot.

The richest man alive just told the GOP’s frontman: I could bury you. I’m just choosing not to — yet.
Let’s be clear about what this means.

Elon Musk is sitting on dirt.
The kind that gets leveraged, not tweeted.

The kind you use when you want to remind someone that you could end their career, or worse.

This isn't about restraint.
It’s about leverage.
And Trump knows it.

He’s no stranger to public feuds, but this one’s different.

Because unlike DeSantis or Haley or even Biden, Musk is insulated.

He has the money, the platform, and the cult following to do real damage… and both sides know it.
