Trump one month before the 2024 election: “Think of it - within one year you’re gonna have electric bills and energy bills and gasoline for your cars is going to be 50% cheaper than it is right now. That’s a big thing.”

MAGA is melting down after buyers got an email confirming they will never get their Trump Phones, or even get their deposits back. An estimated 590,000 people reportedly paid a $100 deposit each. Trump knows his base is full of suckers, and they keep proving him right.

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) has allowed Alabama to select a different map for this year’s congressional elections in a stunning, last-minute move to interfere with another state primary election that has already begun. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This seems like decades ago. Literally "flooding the zone"

“I’m paying for it… free of charge… zero cost to taxpayers…” 🤥

“.. most months it’s the No. 1 consumer of water in the county.” @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

I love a good road trip, but this is brutally out of touch: a Trump Cabinet member making a documentary about himself while regular families can’t afford road trips anymore, because Trump and his war put gas prices through the roof.

COLBERT: How dumb do you think it is for people to say that I should run for president? OBAMA: Well, you know, the bar has changed. I think you would perform significantly better than some folks we've seen. COLBERT: Is that an endorsement? OBAMA: It was not

Remember when they told everyone taxpayers wouldn’t pay a penny?

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

🚨BREAKING: A new lawsuit is challenging Louisiana’s decision to suspend congressional primaries already underway — arguing the state is illegally nullifying votes and plunging an active election into chaos following the Supreme Court’s gutting of the VRA. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

MARK KELLY: Do you stand by your statement of 'no mercy, no quarter'? HEGSETH: We have untied the hands of our warfighters. We fight to win and we follow the law KELLY: Okay, so you're not clarifying your statement

Statue of limitations has not expired on this tweet.

🚨 HOT MIC: Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) was caught asking staff during questioning of Trump judicial nominees: “What would be wrong if they said Biden won?” Multiple people in the room heard it. GOP staffers were reportedly panicking, according to sources familiar.

this man went to grad school at oxford (uk, not mississippi). he did his undergrad at vanderbilt. he talks like this because he thinks we're stupid and is trying to be relatable.

Must read

GOP Rep. Don Bacon: "I think it's a little silly. We laughed at Russia when they had pictures of Lenin and Stalin everywhere. China had pictured of Mao everywhere. North Korea has Kim Jong Un. We're America and I think we do less of that."

Listen to this, outstanding reporting by Allan Piper….

King Charles: “You recently commented, Mr. President, that if it were not for the United States, European countries would be speaking German. Dare I say that if it wasn't for us, you'd be speaking French” video courtesy @acyn.bsky.social

AOC reads to Zeldin internal emails she obtained from the EPA about a meeting he had with the Bayer CEO on glyphosate, and asks him, "Do you understand the conflict of interest that is before the American people right now?"

Hold on. We the taxpayers are going to pay companies $900 million, which is more than 6x what we spend on wind power R&D, to NOT build wind power at a time when electricity prices are spiking and we need more clean power?

February 5, 2025. Trump announces he is going to build a new ballroom at the WH and pay for it with his own money: “It’s going to cost nothing. I will spend the whole thing myself.”

He never had the money to pay for the ballroom. It was always a scam. We were always going to have to pay for it. They were just waiting for the right moment to hit us with the bill. This is now the time.

This is a new low in the use of the shadow docket. The Court blocked a lower court ruling on the so called "interim docket" (as conservatives call it). Then, quietly issued a final judgement without allowing us to even brief the merits appeal. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

if you really think about it, there's no problem we face that can't be solved by a new White House ballroom

COACH SULLY: “Shift your eyes to this monstrosity… one year. One President. Donating his salary is just a headline. It doesn’t offset the BILLIONS Trump is accumulating elsewhere.” 💰

Elon Musk has used SpaceX as a kind of piggy bank over the last two decades, turning to the company as a financial tool to get loans and bolster his struggling companies, according to an examination by The New York Times. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/24/t...

The man knows his way around the Bible.

Remember that Donald Trump, Jr. has financial ties to both Polymarket & Kalshi — and the Trumps’ social media company is launching its own prediction market. Meanwhile, Trump’s regulators have announced they will fight any state that attempts to regulate prediction markets. Follow the money.

MADELEINE DEAN: Why did you lie to the New York Post about your relationship with Epstein? LUTNICK: The House Oversight Committee and I agreed-- DEAN: Reclaiming my time. I do not accept that answer. We are our own committee. You're dodging the question. The coverup continues.

“You voted to continue those arms sales to Israel — are you on the wrong side of public opinion in your party?” @schumer.senate.gov sidesteps CNN’s valid Q about his vote. (The answer is yes)

COONS: Why is it a good idea to relieve sanctions on Iranian and Russian oil? BESSENT: The $14 billion number is a DNC talking point COONS: I am not the DNC. I'm the senator from Delaware

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America SHAHEEN: They won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading. It was worth it.

Steve Bannon is a lot of things, including a charlatan and a grifter. But he’s also an extremist who deliberately sought to harness the power of the alt-right for Trump’s political purposes. He’s a major reason the right is so extreme today. And much of the media has given him a pass for a decade.

The sooner JD Vance admits that he hates himself, the better off America will be.

Casar: "Millions of Americans could be on verge of losing their jobs, but the only AI legislation Republicans are pushing is legislation to prevent any regulation. We should be stopping AI billionaires from putting countless Americans out of work, but Republicans are too busy cashing their checks."

Democratic Senator Gary Peters in the Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing: "The Constitution grants Congress, not the president, the power to decide how the government spends taxpayer money. This power of the purse allows us to basically serve as a check on abuses by the executive branch."

This isn't being talked about enough: President Trump is hosting a gala at Mar-a-Lago next week for the top 297 holders of his #$TRUMP memecoin. Not only is this blatantly corrupt, it's a national security threat.

On beefin with the Pope and the infamous Dr. Jesus H Trump picture

I bet Roy Cohn told him that story but a version where it was Roy Cohn saying that line.

Trump and his family members appear to have engaged in influence-dealing on a dramatically larger scale than the Biden family was ever accused of—but Fox is keeping its head in the sand.

Trump isn’t beating the antichrist allegations with these attacks on the pope

VIKTOR ORBÀN CAN STILL WIN IF MIKE PENCE HAS THE COURAGE.

It’s hard to believe, but JD Vance has somehow found a way to be even more incompetent than Trump.

Tonight in Budapest’s Heroes’ Square, a sea of young Hungarians—who’ve only ever known Orbán’s corrupt, suffocating regime—are packed together, singing, chanting, and daring to dream of freedom again. Their hope is raw, their courage is real. The heart of Europe is beating in Budapest tonight. 🇭🇺❤️🇪🇺
