I was one of five Republicans who signed a discharge petition to get a vote on the Major Richard Star Act.
The Act passed the House today and now goes to the Senate. This brings veterans who were medically retired one step closer to receiving full benefits without an offset.

What just happened in Mississippi?!
A black man was nominated to be a federal judge 3 years ago, but was REJECTED by Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith.
Today, that man not only became the first Black person elected to a statewide office in Mississippi since the Reconstruction Era…
But he also WON the Senate election against the same woman who rejected his judgeship!
(The same woman who publicly told her constituents to pick another protein when asked about rising beef costs)
Ladies and gentlemen, it looks like Mississippi picked another Senator!

Reports confirm a weekend phone call between Trump and Netanyahu over Iran. Israeli outlet Ynet cited sources calling it a “shouting match from hell,” with Netanyahu pressing for renewed strikes and regime change as Iran rebuilds its nuclear program. Trump favors diplomacy, citing positive momentum and Gulf states’ opposition to escalation; he has said further US military action appears unlikely. Netanyahu’s office denied any shouting, labeling the account “fake news.” FT also reported Netanyahu’s frequent calls urging resumption of the war.

🚨 IMPORTANTE
Exclusiva de Reuters muestra el verdadero móvil de la operación militar que llevó a la captura de Maduro
La investigación reveló que una semana antes de la operación militar del 3 de enero, el vicepresidente JD Vance abordó la futura venta del crudo venezolano con un operador de la firma Vitol y megadonante de su campaña, allanando el camino para que Vitol y Trafigura recibieran sin licitación el monopolio de comercialización petrolera que ya les ha generado cientos de millones de dólares.
Registros de vuelo ubican el avión oficial de JD Vance y el jet privado de John Addison (operador de Vitol) juntos el 27 de diciembre en Bozeman, Montana, rumbo al exclusivo Yellowstone Club.
Según una fuente enterada del encuentro, Vance preguntó qué tan rápido podrían vender el crudo venezolano si EEUE tomaba el control del suministro.
Aunque Addison negociaba gasolina en EEUU y carecía de experiencia técnica en contratos internacionales de crudo, había donado 300.000 dólares a Vance en 2022 y 7 millones de dólares a comités de Trump en 2024 (el mismo año en que Vitol pagó 50 millones en California por un caso de manipulación de precios donde Addison fue señalado).
Recomendado por Vance, Addison recibió el 5 de enero (dos días después de la operación) la llamada del secretario de Energía, Chris Wright.
La Casa Blanca omitió la licitación pública y el 9 de enero Vitol y Trafigura ya tenían las licencias.
Con más de 200 millones de barriles exportados en lo que va de 2026, expertos estiman que los operadores ganan entre 3 y 3,50 dólares por barril (un margen de 3,5 % a 4 %, superior al 1 %–3 % habitual de Vitol). Ambas firmas mantienen en secreto sus contratos con PDVSA, y Vitol confirmó tener además relación comercial con NABEP, la petrolera de Alejandro Betancourt
Este reporte se suma a la filtración del informe de KPMG publicada ayer por The New York Times, según la cual Vitol y Trafigura concentraron el 61 % de los 12.260 millones de dólares ingresados a la Cuenta de Custodia de Venezuela antes de que Washington transfiriera casi la totalidad de esos fondos de vuelta al Banco Central de Venezuela
Es decir:
Una semana antes del ataque militar, el gobierno de Trump ya estaba coordinando en un club privado de esquí cómo repartir la comercialización del petróleo venezolano a sus megadonantes de campaña sin licitación pública.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 JENSEN HUANG IS NO LONGER CEO OF NVIDA
Jensen Huang has just (been forced, imo) to RESIGN as CEO of Nvidia.
Chief financial officer Colette Kress is appointed interim boss.
This confirms to me that this was an Epstein class coup/forced take over to REMOVE Jensen from power and seize the company.
The source of the allegations were “U.S. intelligence” from the Trump regime. Nvidia is at the centre of the AI arms race.
This is all about KILLING open source AI by controlling the infrastructure market.

This is for @RepJeffries who keeps saying it's only white people wanting him to not be Speaker.
STOP IT.
It's because AIPAC and Palantir are your biggest donors.
It's because you have atrocious views and positions and the people know it.
We do not want @SenSchumer and @hakeemjeffries in Leadership. The people have spoken and are speaking. Democratic elected officials figure it out. Get it done! Thank You!

Thank you Lewis Hamilton
👏 HAMILTON: “YARDIMLARIN ENGELLENMEMESİ İÇİN İSRAİL’E BASKI YAPMALIYIZ.”
👀 Lewis Hamilton: “Bugün Mısır Kızılayı ile birlikteyim. Gazze’ye gönderilmek üzere hazırladıkları insani yardım kolilerini yüklüyorlar. Bugün, harika gönüllüleri eşliğinde Refah Sınır Kapısı’na gittiler.
Mısır genelinde 70.000’den fazla gönüllüleri var ve burada her gün 2.000’den fazla kişi, bu kolilerin mümkün olan en iyi şekilde hazırlanıp paketlenmesini sağlamak için gönüllü olarak çalışıyor. Yardımların gönderilmesi için her şey hazır.
Bu nedenle İsrail’e, Filistin tarafındaki sınır kapısını yeniden açması için gerçekten baskı yapmalıyız. Çünkü her gün yeterli sayıda yardım tırı geçiş yapamıyor.
Gazze ve Filistin’deki insanlar o kadar acil bir ihtiyaç içerisindeler ki, şu anda bu yardımlara duydukları ihtiyaç daha fazla olamaz. Bu yüzden gerçekten baskı kurmalı ve bu yardımların oraya ulaşmasını sağlamak için birlikte hareket etmeliyiz.
Burada çok büyük miktarda yardım bulunuyor. Üstelik bu merkez, Filistin’deki bireylerin ve ailelerin ihtiyaç duyduğu gıda, ilaç ve diğer temel malzemelerle dolu olan harika yardım merkezlerinden yalnızca biri.”

Sen Chris Van Hollen is calling on "House & Senate leadership to strip the upcoming defense bill of provisions in the NDAA, Section 1217 defense & intelligence cooperation with Israel, including one advanced by Netanyahu himself."
Chris Van Hollen is also being put forward by some to REPLACE Chuck “I work for Israel” Schumer as Senate Majority leader.

Yeah but you mustn’t criticise this cos “anti semitism.”
Israeli settlers have set up a new settlement on the outskirts of Jericho in the occupied West Bank.
Sky News saw Israeli soldiers guarding the site, just metres from the part of the city run by the Palestinian Authority.
One Palestinian man tells @alexrossiSKY his child has been left traumatised after being forced to flee.

🚨 CRACKS IN THE WALL.
Sen. Thune is now demanding the full release of the Epstein files.
He notes that in the UK, politicians and royals lost their positions over Epstein ties — while in the U.S., Trump officials like Howard Lutnick face zero consequences.
No more hiding. No more protection.
If your name is in those files, you answer for it. 🔥
