“Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.” It’s chilling to see the most powerful man in the world bragging that he passed a test that they give people to find out whether they should be allowed to take the bus by themselves. -Stephen Colbert

Ossoff details "Prince Eric and Prince Don's" corrupt dealings in Kazakstan and says, "here's the bottom line. If you're involved in any of this, next year you'll raising your right hand and swearing to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help you God in front of Congress"

The current regime is absolutely evil.

It’s absolutely crazy they can void an election with no consequences.

Sen. Andy Kim: "It's a choice. Delaney Hall is run by GEO Group. GEO Group is getting a nearly $1 billion contract to run Delaney Hall. They tell me there is one full-time doctor for 800 detainees. They could have more doctors if they wanted to, but that's cutting into their profits."

The corruption never stops.

Sanders: What Mamdani is doing is showing that you can have a democratic socialist, progressive ideology and run a city.

Journalist Katie Phang is suing the U.S. Justice Department over the Epstein files. Her lawsuit names acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and accuses the DOJ of failing to fully release the documents required under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Every American should be disgusted by this.

The citizens of Festus, Missouri, population approximately 14,000, just voted out every single city council member who secretly approved a gigantic data center. A recall petition is also being circulated to remove the mayor and council members who were not on the ballot.

Hey, Mitch. You could have prevented ALL THIS by voting to convict him and bar him from holding office again. Asshole.

Minnesota is doing what the feds won't: holding ICE accountable www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Stephen Colbert closed out the final episode of The Late Show with an emotional performance of “Hello, Goodbye” alongside Paul McCartney. Paul McCartney symbolically switched off the studio lights one last time to the Ed Sullivan Theater. 🥹🥺

Let’s not forget conservatives don’t believe in reparations for slavery but they do for white sesitionist rioters against their own country/democracy… The end of true patriotism.

He raped a woman in a department store and, if the complete Epstein files are ever released, may have done the same to minors. Now he's raping the American taxpayer.

And magically nobody is talking about them anymore. Ted Lieu on camera: "The Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped children." A sitting congressman said this on the record.

Trump brought the NVIDIA CEO on his trip to China to lobby Xi Jinping to buy advanced AI chips, even though it would create a U.S. national security threat. It turns out Trump also bought millions in NVIDIA's stock. The President's corruption is a national security disaster.

The corruption is beyond anything we have ever seen.

Private prison company GEO Group gave $1M+ to Trump's Super PAC in 2024 and his inauguration the following year. Not only has Trump since rewarded GEO with billions in ICE contracts, but a top former GEO executive has now been named acting ICE director. Cashing in on cruelty.

Americans 'bracing for higher prices' as Trump economy turns bleak: report

I made the case last week that Trump is President Bystander, blissfully unaware of events unfolding around him: tinyurl.com/vmxxhudv He keeps proving the thesis true.

“we have to fight back by voting” when we just VOTED and had that taken from us is INSANE

The fight so far is focused on three fatal shootings, but prosecutors in Minneapolis have opened criminal investigations into 14 additional cases of potentially unlawful behavior by federal agents during Operation Metro Surge.

There it is. Any questions?

To be clear about what just happened: The Trump administration sent armed FBI agents to abduct a 78-year-old doctor and former federal public health worker from his home and stripped him because the brainwashed right-wing base, hopped up on a literal conspiracy theory, wants scalps.

Literally we spent the last six months being told private donors were paying for this thing

Billionaire Tom Steyer wants us to believe he’s the victim. Let’s look at the receipts: 🧾 Fresno Bee: You invested $90 million in CoreCivic — the private prison giant that cages migrants for ICE.

Happy Earth Day.

The only way to make things right is to hold the wrongdoers, thieves and grifters to account.

This is how you know it was staged.

Am I understanding this correctly? The President, the Vice-President, the Speaker of the House AND the Secretary of Stare were all at the White House Correspondent's Dinner together and security was so laxed that a guy ran through security with a long gun? I call bullshit.

Trump who hates the press decides to attend the WHCD in the midst of sinking polls, a failing war and countless scandals. Trump whose connection to the truth is tenuous at best. Just happens to get attacked in full view of the press. Yeah colored me skeptic.

Dont forgot Alligator Alcatraz and the Hunger Games..

Sixteen posts in 147 minutes. One every 9 minutes. Grievances, conspiracy theories, and arrest fantasies. Then people wonder why he’s sundowning in press conferences. Imagine the coverage if this were Joe Biden instead of Donald Trump.

Note that there's been no threat to sue over this statement. I know I would be suing for tens of millions if I was innocent.

I like this plan.

Since the assassination attempt at Butler is again in the news, it is important to realize that about 1 hour before the Butler rally, Trump posted "ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE IN ONE HOUR!” in a fundraising post. 1. Look it up if you doubt. 2. Some suggest it meant announcing his VP??? NO, HE KNEW.

HAHAHA! That response killed me. And it's so damn true.
