'Get it done!' Trump fumes at Senate Republicans blocking 'first step' for election plot

President Donald Trump fumed at Senate Republicans on Tuesday over their continued blockage of his legislative agenda. Trump has repeatedly called for Senate Republicans to pass his SAVE Act, which would overhaul the way U.S. elections are conducted, before their August recess. However, Republicans have shot down those calls, arguing that there are not 60 votes to pass the bill and that they are unwilling to eliminate the filibuster to do so. Trump claimed in a post on Truth Social that Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) has a scheme up his sleeve to pass part of the bill before the recess, which he called a "critical first step." He then fumed at Republicans to "get it done!""Senator Ron Johnson is working hard with Senate Republican Leadership to adopt a Budget Resolution before the August recess," Trump wrote. "This is the first step towards getting as much of THE SAVE AMERICA ACT as possible in a Budget Bill, funding our Troops, and helping our Farmers." "I am calling on the Senate to get this critical first step done before the August recess," he added. "This Resolution can be adopted at a simple Majority threshold. GET IT DONE!"

'Really alarming moment': Trump spy chief's confirmation rattles security expert

A security expert warned that the confirmation of Trump's new spy chief marks a "really alarming moment."During an appearance on CNN, Paul Rieckhoff said that the confirmation of Jay Clayton as Director of National Intelligence shows that Trump rewards loyalty above all else. Rieckhoff made the warning as CNN panelists spoke about Trump threatening upcoming elections and as Senate votes came in to confirm Clayton as the new head of America's 18 intelligence agencies."Standards don't matter. Competency doesn't matter. Independence doesn't matter. Loyalty matters," Rieckhoff said. "This is a really alarming moment that we shouldn't normalize."Rieckhoff noted that before former DNI Tulsi Gabbard departed, she opposed Trump's actions like the war in Iran and removing its leader, but she was sent to Georgia to "attack elections on behalf of the FBI." Rieckhoff spoke during the segment in which CNN anchor Erin Burnett noted that Trump has made multiple moves to threaten elections, with Rieckhoff noting that Trump seems to be "telegraphing his punches" ahead of the midterms."Now, we've got this guy who's never served in the intelligence community and refuses to accept the elections," Rieckhoff said. "I look at it through the prism of the hundreds of thousands of people in our intelligence community. We are at war with Iran, and Trump wants to attack more places."Clayton's confirmation "really jeopardizes our national security," Rieckhoff added. He worried that "we're under constant threat in the homeland," and Clayton's "lack of basic competence" doesn't help.Rieckhoff added that Clayton's confirmation "has our enemies celebrating."

Data reveals the number of American casualties during a single day of Trump's Iran war

A recent Freedom of Information Act request for Pentagon records revealed the department never disclosed that 70 American troops were wounded in a single day during Trump's Iran war.The War Horse filed the request and published its findings, revealing over 400 casualties in the first six weeks of conflict. The data was logged between Feb. 28 and April 8, with head trauma being the most common among 170 cases. Troops also suffered shrapnel wounds, broken bones, and smoke inhalation, according to the data. Army soldiers comprised most casualties, with over 270 troops, including roughly one-third reservists. The largest casualty day occurred on March 18, following a U.S.-Israeli airstrike killing senior Iranian official Ali Larijani. The Pentagon subsequently reorganized its Defense Casualty Analysis System, Task & Purpose found. Additionally, the Washington Examiner reported the Pentagon split the war into separate operational lists to circumvent the 60-day War Powers Act requirement for congressional authorization. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) condemned the situation on social media, "Let me explain this absurd ruse: The Pentagon is pretending there have been two Iran wars separated by a brief cease-fire," he added, "The reality: By going more than 90 days without congressional authorization, War Secretary Pete Hegseth is breaking the law and must be held accountable."Watch the video below.
