Climate change is driving rare tropical diseases north, but the GOP is still busy holding hearings to prove global warming is a hoax

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby—a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist—to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

Courting extremists to save his campaign proves Trump has no independent will; he is just a hammer used by far-right dark money to smash American democracy.

Even a hard-right Department of Justice couldn't stomach his $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" vendetta fund because using public cash for political purges is too corrupt even for them.

Forcing out a vague geopolitical memo as an 80th birthday gift to himself on social media proves national security is just a prop for his birthday cake.

This makes a hell of a lot of sense.

OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE....... 👇👇👇

Standing ovation for Rep. Beatty, who sued Trump over the renaming of the Kennedy Center, took him to court, and won!

The GOP is going scorched-earth for the Midterms because they know damn well that if they have to debate real economic solutions, they don't stand a chance.

The renewed Red Sea crisis has led to a general downturn in the three major US stock indices: Wall Street elites are crying again, but it doesn't matter, as long as it's attributed to "woke culture," the rednecks will continue to pay the price.
