Yeah, it’s probably just a coincidence that Blanche represented Paul Manafort, Rudy Giuliani, Boris Epshteyn, Michael Cohen, and Donald Trump. He’s just a guy trying to do the right thing without regard to party, as long as you’re a Republican.

Effective tax rate paid by Jeff Bezos from 2014 to 2018: 0.98% Effective 2025 federal tax rate paid by Amazon: 1.4% Typical tax rate paid by the average American: 14.5% Just thought I should point that out.

So now we’ve gone from “make a deal and end the war or I’ll blow you to hell” to “please sign this letter to think about maybe ending the war in the next 30 days” How embarrassing.

If releasing your tax returns and the Epstein files would end your presidency, then your presidency must end. It’s that simple.

The Right needs new talking points and a check on their California Derangement Syndrome. California is the top-performing economy in the US. We dominate in EVERY category — from manufacturing to venture capital, engineering, and research. We are writing the rules of the future.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth: Air power alone doesn’t win wars. Symbolic strikes don’t create strategy. And if you engage in war, you either commit to an achievable outcome or you shouldn’t start it in the first place. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

An insidious danger lurks within all of this... Why are so many data centers being built across the country? Ask yourself, what data are they collecting? 🤨

Americans agree that corporate money in politics has gone way too far. This year, Montanans have a chance to do something about that.

“The danger facing the United States isn’t theoretical anymore. It’s visible. It’s gathering force. It’s wrapped in flags, crosses, propaganda and rage. The republic won’t survive through denial.” steveschmidt.substack.com/p/the-madnes...

I’m spending almost $1,000 a month on groceries for 4 people. 2 of those people are children who eat breakfast and lunch at school 5 days a week. I shop at the commissary primarily. Life is entirely too expensive.

What gets me about homeland security posting religious doctrine is these people dont even believe in this religious ideology They use it as a means of control of the people who do believe it Thats all it is They arent christians, they are manipulators using christianity

Congress works 140 days a year and earns $174K annually, plus full benefits. How can anyone survive on that without a few stock trades and a little insider trading? They get 225 days off a year and think it’s okay to hold the federal minimum wage at $7.25 an hour for 17 years.

D+11 on a generic ballot probably looks something like 40 seats gained in the House - IF we don’t get complacent. Have you registered to vote yet? Have you double checked to make sure you’re still registered? Do you have any documentation you need to vote? Start planning now.

The Brown v. Board ruling happened 72 years ago today. The reversal of the Supreme Court’s previous “separate but equal” decision highlights how it’s possible to overcome bad SCOTUS decisions. But it took years of activism from brave people to get there. Keep fighting.

Hawaii just enacted a law that effectively neuters Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

No one in this regime will face federal criminal accountability unless we reform the Supreme Court first. That's what folks should be running on. That should be the lesson of the Jack Smith prosecutions: it doesn't matter who the AG is.

Mike Johnson thinks $174,000 isn’t enough to survive without insider trading. But $15/hour is too much to ask for everyone else. Every single day, these goons prove how disconnected they are from everyday Americans.

Dana Bash at the end giving credence to this “debate” is shocking. Whether to vaccinate your children against measles is NOT A LEGITIMATE POLICY DEBATE.

It’s really wild watching people on social media pretend like this administration isn’t a complete dumpster fire. Polls in the 20s in battleground states? Fake news! Record disapproval on the economy? Fake poll! Record disapproval on healthcare? Dem hoax!

Good coverage of yesterday's events in Selma and Montgomery. We may not have wanted to be in this play, but the this is where you go to learn from those who came before how to act when you are called to this stage. www.al.com/news/birming...

The most corrupt president in history:

I’m gonna post this video every day so we NEVER FORGET what Donald Trump did to the USA on Jan 6th

Buttigieg on Duffy: "I love roadtrips. I love America. I actually took a taxpayer-funded roadtrip lasted about 7 months. It was in Afghanistan. This is something very different. To make roadtrips unaffordable & then go around celebrating your own roadtrip is actually why people are frustrated about"

this is such a great encapsulation of what the various factions of the reactionary right want. i might add that they envision themselves as slave masters and the rest of us, in one way or another, as their slaves. betterdonkey.substack.com/p/the-vra-wa...

the trump administration assertion that it is “unlawful” for private organizations to pursue diversity is nonsense. what this is, once again, is an effort to roll back desegregation that the ABA has surrendered to.

great piece. please read if you have a moment: presswatchers.org/2026/05/its-...

The U.S. government requires visa applicants to make all of their social media accounts fully public or risk being denied entry. This is straight out of 1984. Your right to privacy doesn’t just disappear at the border for millions of people, it disappears before they ever set foot here.

“It’s just frustrating to see them come into our community and run all over us like the citizens don’t matter, and then they’re above the law when they do break it,” resident, James Clifton said. www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

Because Trump works for Putin. Because Trump does whatever Putin tells him to do.

The rush to silence Black voters ahead of the 2026 election is stone cold racism. It's Jim Crow 2.0.

We Hear YOU,Loud And Clear, Bernie.......💪🏻

🚨 BLATANTLY ILLEGAL 🚨 Trump doesn't have the authority to gut the US Forest Service, but he's trying to do it anyway. If Congress doesn't hear from us today, the forests lose. Add your name to this auto-drafted letter in exactly 2 clicks: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

There is absolutely ZERO place for racism in our country or government — especially from people who glorify it! WHO AGREES?! 🤚

I wish someone would corner these chuds on "only when the sun shines or the wind blows." It's spectacularly embarrassing that the ENERGY secretary doesn't know how storage batteries work.

Of course, Scalise makes an Idiotic Argument…..

The Senate fell one vote short of formally shutting down the war with Iran, with John Fetterman casting the decisive vote.

I often say that the fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. But let me be clear, if you aren’t fighting for Black voting rights right now then you aren’t really fighting for democracy.

Thank you for including me, Ian! @wolverinebear.bsky.social “Strategic unpredictability” minus the strategy is just chaos that endangers innocent people at home and abroad. go.bsky.app/U4ugvzK

A win! Rapid City-based Pete Lien & Sons has formally withdrawn its graphite drilling project near Pe’Sla, a sacred meadow in the Black Hills where Sioux tribes hold ceremonies and prayer gatherings throughout the year. The company told the Forest Service it won’t be filing another plan.
