Here are the top 5 dogs of the week!

WATCH: “The Supreme Court tore that apart — and the fact that Republicans came for MEMPHIS first feels deeply personal because of that city’s Civil Rights history.” @channel4news.bsky.social puts the racist Republican redistricting in historical context.

Here’s @RepThomasMassie responding to smug @ScottJenningsKY by asking Grok to help folks understand most of Gallrein’s money came from Tel Aviv-born Miriam Adelson and the pro-Israel lobby… and Jennings does his radio show on Israel-tied Salem Media. (which CNN never discloses)

This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community. Yesterday I called for EPA and Congressional investigations into the impact of data center construction on local drinking water supplies. We cannot take water for granted.

CASE DEEP-SIXED Today's @chicago.suntimes.com front page story on the dropped charges in the "Broadview Six" case, following revelations of prosecutorial misconduct before a grand jury: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Experts are projecting that the war in Iran will cost taxpayers $1 trillion. The people in charge just gave the richest 1% a $1 trillion tax break. And they really want us to believe SNAP and healthcare are the problem?? Get real.

How the case of the "Broadview Six" ends: With jaw-dropping revelations — days before trial — that could haunt the Chicago U.S. Attorney’s office for years. My UPDATED @chicago.suntimes.com story on the permanent dismissal of their criminal charges: chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

This week, the House passed the Don’t Say Trans bill (& pushed forward the CHARLIE Act) All 209 Republicans & Dem Reps Fields (LA), Davis (NC), Gillen (NY), Kaptur (OH), Cuellar & González (TX), Vindman (VA) & MGP (WA) have betrayed their constituents by voting for this hateful piece of legislation

3/

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

Garcia: Donald Trump is a small, pathetic loser who has no business getting a dime to give to anybody.

McGovern: Can you explain what is happening with the Iran war powers resolution that was scheduled to be voted on this evening? Are we not voting on it because the American people are sick and tired of this illegal war that is costing tens of billions of dollars?

BREAKING: Mitch McConnell just slammed the Trump slush fund: "So the nation's top law enforcement official is asking for a slush fund to pay people who assault cops? Utterly stupid, morally wrong – Take your pick."

AOC: This is what drinking water in Georgia looks like after Meta began data center construction in the community.

Ossoff on his Republican opponents: "They're pro-war, they're pro-tariffs, they're pro-cutting healthcare. Let's find out where they stand on the crooked ballroom and the insurrectionist slush fund."

Mississippi called a special session TODAY to erase the only Black congressman in this state. Mississippi residents showed up. All of them. On their doorstep. In their streets. To show them what they're fighting against. ✊🏼 #mississippi #democracy

Let's make billionaires pay their fair share and find out

This wasn’t a valid “lawsuit”; you can’t sue yourself It didn’t involve a “negotiation”; you can’t negotiate with yourself It didn’t end with a “settlement”; you can’t settle with yourself Always call this what it is: Trump’s wholesale ripoff of America so he can pay his January 6 thugs

Stephen Miller threatens Iran with "punishment from our military the likes of which has not been seen in modern history"

Looking towards Memorial Day, may we REALLY remember & HONOR those who gave everything for our freedom. They didn’t give their lives so we could be ruled by fascist elite autocrats. They gave their lives so we would NOT be a country run by a narcissist who wants more money and breaks all the rules.

Planned Parenthood's Melanie Newman: "When the people in power substitute their beliefs for our rights, that is tyranny ... we now have judges who are more interested in imposing their ideology than following the law ... our rights are not up for debate."

End Citizens United's Justin Unga: "Corporations and billionaires poured billions into our last presidential election, and this is what they bought for themselves. We have a vot that has been auctioned to the highest bidders, and that means big oil and gas, they get to decide how clean our air is."

Crockett 🔥: "Some of y'all need to read up on your history books, the same ones Republicans have decided people shouldn't hear about bc you don't want real history taught in schools. You're afraid it's gonna hurt people's feelings to know their ancestors were so savage they would enslave Black folk"

Rep. Analilia Mejia: "The erosion of voting rights is coupled with a rigged economy, because the way the prevent the rules from coming for them, the way they can keep the grift going, is ensuring we do not have a political voice to stop them. That's the game."

New in PN: Trump's $1.8b slush fund could turn into giant can of worms "The entire exercise is an elaborate troll. It is, as many people have commented, a vehicle for Trump to pay his supporters for the last attack, and maybe prepay for the next one using tax dollars. It’s also flagrantly illegal."

1. Number of stories about Trump buying and selling hundreds of millions of dollars in stocks in the first three months of 2026: CBS: 0 CNN: 0 Fox News: 0 NPR: 0 PBS: 0 Politico: 0 Semafor: 0 Business Insider: 0

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

Looks like potential insider trading to us. Does this look like insider trading to you? Over 3,600 stock trades by Trump since Jan. Absolutely unprecedented. This will be investigated.

This is the MOST corrupt Administration in American history: —Insider trading —Selling pardons —Crypto and real estate deals —Arms deals —BILLIONS in tax breaks for billionaires on the backs of the American people And NOW the IRS giving Trump and convicted rioters BILLIONS in taxpayer dollars.

Patty Murray to Blanche: "This is corruption that has never been more blatant. What's happening is you write the check, Trump and his cronies cash it, and American taxpayers who are already being whacked with high prices are gonna foot the bill."

We're all just pretending that this person is not clinically insane

"This is not leadership. Our service members deserve far better" -- Rep. Crow demolishes Adm Cooper for repeatedly refusing to acknowledge that the law of war manual prohibits declarations of no quarter like the one Hegseth made

MOULTON: I'm not asking you to talk about the Iran nuclear program. I'm asking you to talk about the English language. What's the difference between 'obliterated' and 'significantly degraded'? Are they the same? ADM COOPER ... MOULTON: Why did we start this war? Was President Trump lying to us?

JD Vance: "It's not sometimes totally clear what the negotiating position of the team is. I don't know if that's bad communication, bad faith. I wouldn't pretend to venture a guess."

JD Vance: "You know who never, ever gets an ounce of sympathy when it comes to disproportionate sentencing? People who voted for Donald Trump and participated in the January 6 protest."

The vice president of the United States is just standing up here saying people should feel sorry for domestic terrorists who were given free and fair trials and were then convicted in a court of law. Absolutely despicable.

Straight out of the fascist playbook of re-writing history. They're going to use the fact that January 6 insurrectionists were pardoned as "proof" that they didn't actually attack anyone and were wrongfully targeted.

"Trump either underestimated how powerful the weapon of Hormuz is, or didn’t believe Iran would use it. And now that Iran has successfully created a global energy crisis that’s rapidly turning into an economic one, he still wants someone else to solve the problem. Yet he keeps getting turned down."

Although polls are meaningless without the work and the votes but it's great to hope that we can get rid of Byron Donalds and Ashley Moody. Let's make this happen. Make Florida Sane Again www.newsweek.com/florida-demo...

Headline may as well read: “King Trump and his princely sons declare themselves above the law, scrutiny, and justice — grant themselves divine right to pilfer public coffers for life.”

😕

We released a trove of disclosure records that detail the finances of more than 1,600 Trump appointees, including former lobbyists, industry executives and at least a dozen officials who declined to identify former clients.

President Trump dropped his IRS lawsuit after they agreed to create a $1.776 billion fund … which will be distributed by a panel of people Trump manages.

This is the height of corruption. www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

In case you need any more motivation to hold the most corrupt "president" in U.S. history accountable. #Register&VOTE 🌊

Blanche: I am the Acting Attorney General! The fact that I used to be President Trump’s lawyer is just a fact. DON’T SAY THE PRESIDENT’S FORMER LAWYER WILL DO SOMETHING—SAY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL WILL DO SOMETHING!

SIGN OF THE DAY…

The money trail is right there to follow.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson said Monday that the Supreme Court risks being seen as political in the wake of a major voting rights decision. https://to.pbs.org/4dUsffy

Rep. @justinjpearson.bsky.social in WILLIAMSON COUNTY: “Out of many, we are one… ‘we the people’ means all of us.”
