Why must Republicans in the federal chambers demonstrate how much of the uniparty they are and how much they hate Trump--and us by extension? 

A contingent of House Democrats and Republicans have banded together to advance an amnesty bill that they definitely want you to think is not actually an amnesty. 20 Republicans so far have joined in as co-sponsors on the bill, betraying the agenda of the Trump administration and the will of the electorate.

At least one on X took offense to this, writing "the bill....is written in Spanish." Well, no, it's not. It's the easy-to-remember acronym used to give the bill a shorthand name. So if Republicans complain about the title of the bill, that will be an easy way for Democrats to call them stupid. 

Of course, I'm already upset at the Republicans who have signed on to this bill.

Who had Iran violating its own ceasefire? Give yourself a gold star. Give yourself a diamond star if you realized they would violate it within 2 hours. Of course, Israel gave them a gentle reminder. IDF Strikes Iranian Missile Sites After Devastating Iranian Ceasefire Violation

Thank goodness he was also stupid and didn't realize he was planning this attack with two undercover officers.

On the radio on my commute, I heard that Iran was claiming Israel violated the ceasefire by striking Hezbollah.

CNN headline.

Live updates: US-Iran ceasefire appears to hold despite Lebanon strikes and restricted Strait of Hormuz

So Iran and CNN agree Hezbollah is an Iranian asset. Thank you for the confirmation.

Well, it sounds like the announcer at least acknowledge that it was a claim, not reality.
