Donald Trump’s corruption is driving up your costs. Here’s the receipt—and you’re stuck with the bill.

This one hits hard.

Democrats should also be really thinking now about insane it's going to feel if we win in 2028 and Musk is babbling about the need for a race war and calling the president a satanic pedophile while also being the most important government contractor in the country.

😢😢😢😢😢 I'm not big on patriotic celebrations to begin with, but I find myself grieving over the fact that a true celebration of the 250th has been stolen from us, and that there will not be a chance to celebrate more appropriately...or, likely, a country worth celebrating again...within my lifetime.

The amount of corruption in this administration is astounding.

On June 4, 1989, the Chinese government violently cracked down on pro-democracy demonstrators at Tiananmen Square in the nation’s capital city of Beijing. #June4thMassacre #Violent #Military #Suppression #History (but not really) #OTD

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is about normalizing a paramilitary force on peaceful streets. Abolish ICE.

Yes. If you're a Democrat running for federal office and aren't on board with expanding the Supreme Court, or some other reform that similarly achieves an immediate end to the power of the court's conservative bloc, you're not serious about your policy agenda or governing.

Private prison company GEO Group, which runs Delaney Hall, gave $1M+ to Trump's Super PAC in 2024 and his inauguration in 2025. 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.

I’m a climate scientist. Let me fix this headline. “Nearly a century ago, scientists showed that burning fossil fuels warms the planet. Today, we know human emissions account for over 100% of the warming. Yet dark money and disinformation still work to keep Americans addicted to fossil fuels.”

Trump bought stock in the UFC’s parent company while promoting fights set to take place at the White House on his birthday, HuffPost has learned

Ken Paxton just gave an Epstein-style deal to a pedophile. Paxton released Adam Hoffman — an admitted child rapist — back on our streets after Paxton’s rich lawyer friend got involved. The Epstein Class has no place in Texas. Ken Paxton has no place in the US Senate.

Reporters don't talk enough about how Republicans do not consider Democratic voters to be fully American.

Someday an academic will hit the total button on how many lives have been lost because of MAGA Republicans, and the number will show that Trump is a mass murderer.

Funny how no one is offering to make the Epstein victims "whole."

Under John Roberts, the Supreme Court has Taken away abortion rights Disenfranchised Black voters Overturned a 100 year old gun safety law Destroyed the EPA Ruled that presidents can fire everyone except Fed governors And given Trump almost total immunity Roberts is worse than Roger Taney

Not enough people are talking about this. A Florida airport was renamed after Donald Trump. He walked away with the trademark, the licensing rights, and a deal that lets him profit off every piece of merchandise sold there. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

👇🎯 Once again, an easy way for the @nytimes & every other media outlet to avoid what they clearly feel are unfair & biased criticisms for how they cover 🇺🇸 politics & Democrats vs Republicans would be for them to stop doing things <every day> that <completely confirm> the merits of those criticisms.

Let’s see how many articles/front pages @nytimes.com will dedicate to the failure—a clear strategic defeat—of Trump’s Iran war. I bet it’ll be no more than a couple of days bc the NYT’s editors & journalists are scared to death of Trump, spineless journalists. Compare that coverage to Biden’s 🇦🇫

In a cowardly move that he waited until late on Friday afternoon to announce, Colorado’s Democratic governor is commuting the sentence of a Trump ally who was convicted for tampering with election equipment as part of Trump’s Big Lie. This is a stunning betrayal of our democracy.

It is remarkable how many establishment Dems simply do not understand they are in the middle of an existential war against MAGA politics, and that there’s no co-existence possible here.

Traitor to democracy behavior from Polis here. Sniveling appeasement of authoritarianism, after literally every Democrat in the state delegation warned him not to do this. The *Republican DA* thinks this move is nuts.

On this day in 1911, Standard Oil was ruled an unreasonable monopoly and forced to break up. #AntiTrust #Undercutting #Threatening #Competition #Dissolution #History #OTD

You know, a President accusing a NYT reporter of committing treason just for asking a question is actually quite a big deal, and this bunch just standing there listening to it and doing nothing is not encouraging the public to think of journalism as a serious business or of words meaning anything.

The corruption is beyond anything we have ever seen.

Obviously Dems need to play to win (that is, to make Trump more unpopular by fighting him on every front). But here they are failing to respond to an obvious element of a coup plot, and, well… it darkens my outlook for November and beyond. www.offmessage.net/p/a-terrible...

Remember, the whole right-wing kleptocratic project is at stake. It’s also trivially easy to fabricate a bad-faith claim that a small number of Dems shouldn’t be seated. And now we can see: republicans will max out on abuses of power, while Dems cut their losses. www.offmessage.net/p/a-terrible...

It’s true that the judiciary didn’t participate in Trump’s 2020 coup attempt. But Democrats seem to have over-interpreted the significance of that fateful decision. www.offmessage.net/p/a-terrible...

Professional Democrats simply can't comprehend that they need to be an anti-fascist opposition party. Asking a party that routinely demonizes Democrats and Democratic supporters to "join us" is foolish and weak.

The apparent Democratic response to the GOP-controlled judiciary entering and rigging the districting fight for Republicans is: grudgingly accept court rulings and pad margins with improved pandering to voters. It might “work” but it is a terrible omen. www.offmessage.net/p/a-terrible...

“On day one, I will end inflation and slash prices.”

NEWS --> Top Virginia Dems have decided against exercising a procedural end-run around the State Supreme Court ruling that cost Dems four House seats, the Dem leader of the state senate tells me. This will anger Dems who wanted an aggressive response. Details here: newrepublic.com/article/2102...

McConnell denied Garland a vote nine months out under the guise that there was an election soon and then jammed through Coney Barrett a week before Biden won. They have been flipping the bird to the concepts of norms and fairness for decades and the democrats have done jack shit to fight back.

An emboldened Democratic majority must immediately pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, fight the far-right's redistricting scheme with every power we can summon, and expand the Supreme Court. We need Democrats who are ready for this battle. (2/2)

One reason FDR's court-packing plan failed to catch on is that the Supreme Court was perceived by many Americans as apolitical and therefore a victim of unwarranted aggression from the president. This court, however, is nakedly partisan. And any Democrat in power should be saying so early and often

We simply are not having the same National Conversation™️ about gas prices, inflation, & the Least Responsible Economic Policy in 40 Years that we were having when Joe Biden was president amidst a raging global pandemic. Like, not even remotely close, even though it's all orders of magnitude worse.

I'm reminded of the number of times in graduate school and during my early career where I heard supposedly rigorous scholars dismiss work on racism as too radical or unserious. “Things have changed” they assured me.

📌The Republican Party has become so brazen in their odious efforts to erase Black people, they no longer feel the need to wear hoods while they pile high barriers to voting booths, and leadership positions in our government, universities, and places of influence. This is a national emergency.

It’s telling that Alabama took 14 years to implement Brown (you MUST desegregate) and < 14 days to implement Callais (you CAN eliminate Black districts if you call them Democratic, but you don’t HAVE to).

Along with wildly violating both domestic & international law, & threatening the global economy, this war is a massive threat to US national & transatlantic security. The GOP, in its current form, simply cannot be allowed anywhere near foreign & security policy until it is reformed root & branch.

TODAY: Americans are walking out of school and work to wield our power as workers, consumers, and students. Join us for the nationwide day of economic disruption: survey.alchemer.com/s3/8705046/i... Find one of the more than 3,000 events planned for May Day: www.mobilize.us/mayday/map/?... #MayDay

Hey, hey, it's MAY DAY. You know what to do... No School! No Work! No Shopping! #TaxTheOligarchs

Absolute truth from Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist Mike Luckovich. We warned you. You did it anyway. At that one moment, all you had to do was check the right box for a thriving, peaceful and successful life. And now every decent American is under complete, life-threatening assault.

Multiracial democracy in the American South has briefly existed twice in American history, both times enforced from outside, and both times has lapsed the instant the rest of the country lost interest.

theres just no coming back from this without a complete tear down and rebuild of some of our most major institutions

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?

The nationwide day of economic disruption is almost here. Plus, we’re paying close attention to key votes on DHS funding, government surveillance, and Trump’s illegal war.

here's my dumb take: impeachment isn't a priority because it's old and tired and won't generate media. what should dems actually pass? HR1: No Self Dealing, a swath of anticorruption measures. make republicans vote no on that. make them the "stealing from america" party

MGP is a fascist collaborator, pass it on.
