Trump's grifting is off the charts: -Growing his crypto empire while deregulating the industry -Trading millions in stocks in companies with federal contracts -Inking business deals with foreign countries -Suing his own government to get a $1.8B slush fund The Art of the Steal.

Criminals will have access to our hard earned money while we suffer with rising prices across the board.

Prices are up because of Trump’s tariffs and his war with Iran.

A crowd of supporters chants “hold the vote!” as DFL lawmakers prepare for the first House floor session since our sit-in began 39 hours ago.

As family homelessness hits record highs, school districts are offering parking lots as safe sites for students and their families to sleep at night

It’s a sad reflection of where we are in America today. Shameful.

“Pay to play?”

Dear Honorable Chief Justice Roberts: Yes we understand the US Supreme Court. And we see all the partisanship of the GOP controlled Congress and the same vindictiveness of the current Administration. We see you.

“We have no choice but to overturn the 20th century”

Don't forget: my old Yale Law classmate Clarence Thomas refused to recuse from Jan. 6 cases despite his wife's involvement in the plot. And he's taken at least 100 gifts worth over $2 million while serving, including from GOP donor Harlan Crow. He's a disgrace to the Court.

There is something deeply pathological about Chief Justice Roberts insisting the Supreme Court isn’t political while sitting atop the most ideological supermajority in modern history.

Marco Rubio: Operation Epic Fury is over. Our preference is to return to the pre-war status for the Strait of Hormuz. 🇺🇸US Senator: But the SOH was already open before the war? So what was the point of whole war? You have created a Global Crisis OUT OF NOTHING” #cdnpoli

EXCLUSIVE: The Trump administration is abandoning the accelerated training program it used to quickly deploy thousands of new ICE agents.

Buttiigieg: "Look, when you are this deep into your second year, if your reflex is to still be trying to blame the previous administration, it really shows that you are out of ideas, out of solutions, and unwilling to take ownership of your own choices."

My latest column published in The HIll on Voting Rights. thehill.com/opinion/camp...

⛽ Average U.S. gas prices per gallon on May 2, per AAA ⛽ • Regular: $4.43 (⬆️ $1.45 since war in Iran began on Feb. 28) • Premium: $5.29 (⬆️ $1.43 since war began) • Diesel: $5.63 (⬆️ $1.87 since war began)

Instead of spending $50 billion to bankroll Trump’s criminal war on Iran, we could: -Extend ACA subsidies for one year -Restore SNAP benefits for 2.4 million people -And ensure Medicaid coverage for nearly 2 million people It’s not about what we can afford. It’s about priorities.

The arc of history doesn’t bend on its own—we have to pull it.

A democracy that weakens voting rights weakens itself.

NAACP President Derrick Johnson responds to the Supreme Court's decision to gut the Voting Rights Act:

The erosion of full voting rights for Americans didn’t start today—it started in 2013. But today, a 6–3 Supreme Court moves us further from the promise of a fair and equal democracy.

Interim DC police chief Carroll says the shooting suspect was believed to have been a hotel guest, and it is too soon to know his intended target

THE HOUSE JUST VOTED TO EXTENDED TPS FOR HAITI!!! Thank you, Rep. Ayanna Pressley for your leadership on this. Proud to help co-lead this effort for our Haitian brothers, sisters, and siblings. What a day.

Tucker Carlson: "It's vile. It begins w/ a promise to use the US military to commit a war crime. Those people who are in direct contact w/ the president need to say 'No. I'll resign. I'll do whatever I can do legally to stop this, bc this is insane. And if given the order, I'm not carrying it out'"

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something. For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

Under Trump’s leadership, America First is America isolated and confused on its strategic priorities and alliances.

Dems just had one of their best election nights since Trump returned to the White House. Again. The results in the battleground states are the latest repudiation from voters of Trump and his agenda and a warning for the GOP heading into the midterms.

Wisconsin liberals have just won another state Supreme Court election, in what is shaping up to be a blowout. Importantly: Liberals are now sure to hold a majority on this court during the 2028 cycle and through at least 2030. New in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/wisconsin-su...

-Trump & Kushner have billions in business with the Saudis -Eric & Don Jr. are backing a drone-manufacturing DoD contractor -Hegseth's broker tried to invest millions in defense stocks prior to US strikes Trump's inner circle profits from war while everyone else pays the price.

On the one hand, little if any of the content was new. On the other hand, the fact that he merely regurgitated prior social media posts after a month of war is significant.

White House revises its DHS offer as talks to end shutdown pick up

NEW: Virginia lawmakers just passed a bill that'd forbid sheriffs and local police from contracting with ICE, if ICE doesn't say it'll follow state laws and agree to let its agents be prosecuted. Everyone seems to agree that'd spell the end of ICE contracts in Virginia: boltsmag.org/virginia-bil...

Remember: It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.

As we head into the fourth week of the Iran war, the American people - and our troops - deserve clear, accountable, and honest leadership. We're getting the opposite.

So far the war on Iran has cost $25 billion. That's $1 billion per day. $41,666,667 per hour. $11,574 per second. Thousands of lives lost. People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

What happened to "America First"?

Gomez to Gabbard and Racliffe: "If the president can just ignore what you're doing, why do you even have a job? Why even advise him? You're saying the president can say tomorrow China is an imminent threat no matter what the intelligence says, and then he can take his own action."

Never forget who is really winning this war. www.ft.com/content/37d4...
