The failure to mention Trump’s blatant racism against Obama, Blacks and other minority groups continues. And . . . it’s amazing how reluctant the media is to specifically call out the fact that Trump’s elevation to the presidency is white voter backlash to the election of the first Black president.

ummmm...what?

Staggering levels of corruption. They’re using every possible lever of power to enrich themselves and their friends and families. And the “party of fiscal responsibility” simply doesn’t care.

HUGE WIN FOR ENTIRE ECONOMY AND EVERYBODY'S RETIREMENT!!!

Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria were no longer available. We illustrated their findings.

The Teapot Dome scandal involved $400,000 in 1923 dollars. Huge scandal, taught in every HS history book, almost the synonym for "corruption." In 2026 dollars, Teapot Dome was a hair under $8 *M*illion. With an M. Not a B. M. The scope of corruption under Trump 2--plus its nakedness--is epochal.

We all know how this goes: Joe Biden taking the shorter staircase on Air Force One got a week of headlines. Trump keeps falling asleep on the job, and the coverage evaporates before the day is done.

Science!!! Americans do science!!!

“It has come to our attention that the public airwaves have been used to transmit indecent images of female characters who have both children and jobs—and in some cases are even a family’s breadwinner,” said FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr

This is great! The DCCC is investing in red and purple states through its Red-to-Blue and Districts in Play programs, targeting 44 districts across 23 states to flip the House. And that’s exactly where Dems need to be.

When will the New York Times stop featuring obvious bullshit in their headlines?

@robertgarcia.bsky.social: "Over 30 times she deflected blame onto Todd Blanche. Why were redactions made? That's Todd Blanche. Why are 3 million documents still missing? Todd Blanche was in charge. When the full transcript is reviewed, it is very clear that she is deflecting to Blanche."

You see how little this administration cares about you, my fellow Americans….

In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence. In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home. (Published Dec. 2025)

Is the White House running a pay-to-play loyalty program for wealthy donors? More than HALF of the known companies bankrolling Trump's ballroom have won new or expanded federal contracts. I have a bill to stop this.

Thousands of Albanians are protesting a luxury resort planned for a pristine strip of the Mediterranean coastline and backed by Ivanka and Jared. The protests are raising concerns about conservation, transparency and the project's ties to the Trump family.

Amazon sets the routes, the quotas, the uniforms, the cameras — and then tells workers they don't actually work for Amazon. Every delivery worker in this city should be able to afford to live here and have their rights respected. Workers deserve better.

Saw a clip of that guy from Staind saying that Bruce Springsteen duped us with Born in the USA because it’s actually not patriotic but I don’t think it’s really duping people to ask them to listen to more than four words of a song

democrats talking about toxic masculinity is particularly pertinent

First time in my life I’ve ever said “Keep posting through it, sweetie (complimentary)”

There may have been world leaders somewhere in history that sounded dumber than this. But if there was, I don’t know them.

Bingo.

Patrick Bet-David: "I have a local doctor I want you to go see, he specializes in TDS." Me: "I have a guy who is a psychologist and he deals with cult members and I think he'd do well well with you guys who can't get out of the Trump cult." Patrick: "You're so funny."

This is a really cool piece on how Alan Alda has funded an initiative to help researchers better communicate their findings to the public through learning improv skills.

Huge W for S&P 500's credibility. No special rules for the special Nazi boy's fraudulent cash grab to keep his deeply indebted company alive. Well done.

Yeah, no president ever ended a war before, that checks out.

This has gone more viral than anything I have ever written or recorded, the "AI has no ROI" story has fully caught on and there's an anxiety in the AI industry that nobody can seem to calm down. Things are going to get interesting in the next few weeks!

WIRED worked with two outside experts to confirm our findings.

While dormant, three AI models — for face detection, cropping, and encoding — have been pushed from Meta's servers. The system is designed to pull faceprints from those servers and store them locally. (Meta says it isn't building a central face database.) www.wired.com/story/meta-s...

NEW: WIRED analyzed Meta's AI app and found NameTag — a hidden facial recognition system designed to identify people via the wearer's smart glasses — has already shipped to over 50 million phones.

George Santos called me after my story revealing federal investigations into his suspected market manipulation on Kalshi. And he said: "This story is going to get you a gun in your face." Then he lied about it. www.npr.org/2026/06/04/n...

Breaking on MS NOW: House Oversight Ranking Member Robert Garcia says Todd Blanche should not be confirmed and, instead, "he should be fired from the job."

Period.

This is fantastic news.

No special treatment for Space X in the S&P 500! Just announced. Wow. That profitability requirement means it might never get in.

I'm demanding information from ICE on what happened in Danbury today. Contrary to their statement, ICE is not targeting criminals - they are targeting peaceful, law abiding immigrants. In Connecticut and everywhere else. They are a lawless agency.

The whole point is that he is unqualified and will make us less safe. This isn’t a glitch. It’s the design. The US is to bend to its rivals abroad and collapse from within. For this he is the right guy! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

A new investigation announced by special anti-corruption prosecutors in Albania into the $1.4 billion luxury project Jared & Ivanka are trying to build on protected wetlands. My deep dive into this project that's bringing thousands of protesting Albanians to the streets. youtu.be/Y6XhwqOw3bA?...
