NEWS: During a hearing in federal court in VA, prosecutors confirmed that the operative indictment in the case against James Comey was never shown to or voted on by the entire grand jury before it was presented in open court.
Defense argued that’s a complete bar to prosecution

What “best work” is Speaker Johnson talking about??
For over 50 days, House Republicans just sat on the sidelines as millions of Americans saw their health care premiums skyrocket and millions more struggled to put food on the table as Trump withheld critical SNAP benefits.

The Trump administration is trying to sell federal student loans to private companies.
This sale would be a giveaway to wealthy insiders at the expense of working-class borrowers and taxpayers.
It’s a tremendous mistake, and I’m fighting back.

A slow daily diesel train between Minneapolis and Chicago sees 100,000 more riders than it was projected to see when it opened a year ago, and you all want to tell me there’s no demand for fast and frequent trains in this country lol.

Emotions have run high today. But it is good that 5 countries met to bring peace closer. Ukraine, the USA, the UK, France and Germany. The sides expressed their views and respectfully received each other’s positions. It’s important that each side was not just a participant but contributed meaningfully. The American side shared its vision. Ukraine and other Europeans presented their inputs. And we hope that it is exactly such joint work that will lead to lasting peace. We are grateful to partners. Ukraine will always act in accordance with its Constitution and we are absolutely sure that our partners in particular the USA will act in line with its strong decisions.

...only the mom was allowed to join the little girl as they took her to the hospital, the flight attendant said.
The flight attendant said the dad had to stay, and that he was going to be deported without the rest of his family, without knowing if his daughter would live. 7/
ALT Article excerpt: The flight landed in Arizona. Paramedics rushed on board and connected the girl to their own oxygen bottle. They began shuttling her off the plane. Her parents tried to join. But the guards stopped the father. Shocked, Lala approached the ICE officer in charge. “This is not OK!” she yelled. The mom had seizures. The family needed to stay together. But the officer said it was impossible. Only one parent could go to the hospital. The other, as Lala understood it, “was going to get deported.”

I saw a video of an Israeli woman in hysterics about a missile that is obviously pretty far from her and I couldn’t stop but think of my family murdered in this war who did not have bunkers or even time to cry in hysterics. They just died alone in mass graves.

Hi State Lines viewers! 👋
I’ve been working in agriculture since I was 14. I grew up in a military family, worked my way through crop school, and my jobs have taken me to hundreds of farms. #ncpol
