THIS MORNING: Todd Blanche, Acting Personal Counsel to Convicted Felon Donald Trump will testify before the Senate Appropriations Committee about the DOJ budget. I better see some hard and tough questions to him about this $1.8 BILLION slush fund. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

It’s Election Day, ‘Bama (hoping this guy will be my next governor)

“1.776 Billion” is a nice touch — Trolling us with fake patriotism as he steals our money and gives it to people who attacked the Capitol to end democracy for him How much will Rep. Andy Ogles get? @MarshaBlackburn?

The United States government just agreed to pay $1.8 billion to the United States president, approved by the president's own personal lawyer who represented him when he was convicted of 34 criminal counts. This is the biggest scandal in all of American political history.

MAGA grifters who file claims with Trump’s $1.7 billion fund plundered from hardworking Americans are going to be a Who’s Who of Deplorables. He’s come up with a way to silence all his MAGA critics on the war and Epstein who will now suddenly shut up while angling for payouts.

Trump issues executive orders to promote the fusion industry, he creates an Office of Fusion, prepares to deregulate it, all while Trump Media announces a merger with … you will never guess … a fusion company.

This is easily the saddest time in American history. The absolute worst people are systematically destroying the country, and our system is completely failing to stop them.

BREAKING: The judge in the $1.7B slush fund suit has dismissed the case, but she says THERE IS NO SETTLEMENT OF RECORD. As I said earlier, the media must stop reporting that this slush fund is a settlement. It's just plain THEFT. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Because of course he did. It’s all about intimidation for the next ruling.

And now Trump and Blanche’s corrupt Star Chamber Secret Tribunal will convene behind closed doors to dole out $1.7 billion to their criminal co-conspirators, with everything hidden from the American people. They will keep secret who gets paid, how much they get paid, and why.

This is the raving of a delusional man who is unfit and unable to discharge the duties of his office. Every member of his cabinet and Congress who choose to look the other way or deny the danger are complicit.

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.

I imagine several members of Congress who aided in the insurrection will also be paid from this stolen taxpayer money.

This is the Secretary of Defense campaigning in KY while on duty being paid by US taxpayers. It is a completely lawless gangster government in every area at all levels.

Another “temporary extension” to allow Putin to profit from Trump’s war.

He didn’t move. He’s filed notice. He’s not asking for the court’s permission. He’s telling the court he’s dropping the lawsuit. But the settlement for $1.7B is not mentioned. Which means if he goes ahead with the slush fund, it will be without court approval.

It truly is astonishing how many low character reprehensible creatures have been elected and appointed to the highest positions in America through the endorsement and backing of Trump throughout our federal and state governments.

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.

Yesterday, a new generation of civil rights activists marched from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voting rights. As states across the country try to make it harder for citizens to be heard, we need to learn the lessons of those who came before us and refuse to take our democracy for granted.

“.. We spotted nine Polymarket accounts .. who made collectively $2.4 million betting almost exclusively on U.S. Military operations. .. “.. Now, here is the crazy part. 98% win rates.” @mediaite.com www.mediaite.com/media/news/6...

Man it was loud in Montgomery yesterday, but the messages resonated. We’re now less than 36 hours before the polls open for the May 19th primary. Make your voice heard - VOTE and together lets start a history making change in Alabama

Retired Judge Gleeson has a lot to say about Trump suing himself to get a $1.7B slush fund to pay folks like Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, & the Oath Keepers. I'll go over the brief in LIVE in 15 minutes. We could get testimony on whether Trump colluded with the IRS. www.youtube.com/live/6cmnPw6...

FYI

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"

What kind of person does this?

The stories & photos from today’s voting rights marches in Alabama deserve to be seen by people who weren’t able to stand there in person. If this piece moves you, please share it widely & help make sure these voices aren’t lost in the noise of a crowded news cycle. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

“.. This is an insane amount of trades,” he said, adding that it looks more like something done by “a hedge fund with massive algo trades” that buys and shorts securities than a personal account. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

"As they rushed into his apartment...he felt the jaws of a large dog biting into his ankle, knocking him to the floor. He screamed as the dog tore the flesh from his thighs, hip and wrist. Down the hall, agents took a mother and her 16-yr-old son at gunpoint..." www.propublica.org/article/chic...

Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks. If this is what they do to a sitting member of Congress, imagine what Epstein survivors face when considering whether to come forward.

That’s the 500,000 number not fake ballots. The total number of people who requested mail-in ballots. Maryland’s own elections director literally said in his statement that he expected this to be used to spread misinformation.

Justice Samuel Alito has fossil fuel stocks making up nearly a quarter of his personal investment portfolio. And he just voted to put a major climate accountability case on the Supreme Court’s docket after recusing himself from virtually identical cases for the exact same reason.

Today I traveled to Selma with my colleagues in Congress to take a stand against the radical right-wing plot to suppress Black political representation and dismantle our democracy by gutting the Voting Rights Act. We’ve made too much progress in this country to go backwards. We won’t be silenced.

“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...

Q: Did you talk to Xi about the cyber attacks that he's done in the United States? TRUMP: I did. And he talked about attacks we did in China. You know, what they do, we do too. We spy like hell on them too. I told him, 'we do a lot of stuff to you that that you don't know about.'

“Nearly 50,000 Lake Tahoe residents are being told to find a new power provider because the grid is being re-routed to A.I. data centers.”

The corruption is so unapologetically obvious. The Trump regime believes there is nothing #WethePeople can do. They are wrong. PERSISTENT. NONVIOLENT. DISRUPTION. This is how we #RemovetheRegime. Act now! DMs are open! #Resist #ICRI #DOOR #SavetheRepublic #StrongerTogether #UnitedWeStand

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court Friday rejected Virginia Democrats’ emergency request to revive a voter-approved plan that would have allowed the state to redraw its congressional map in response to Republican gerrymanders in other states. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Dr Oz is taking his race card out and waving it around so everyone can see the color of the people he blames it on. Meanwhile the fellow in the Oval Office is a 34 time convicted felon who falsified business records in the past and he’s currently doing some very concerning shady things….

Virginia Dems asked for permission instead of forgiveness. A mistake, IMHO.

A new financial disclosure shows Trump has traded millions of dollars worth of stocks in companies that include Nvidia, Palantir, Meta, Disney and more.

We're All Standing With Ted Lieu....

Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I rarely say “major breaking” and rarely put out these video hits, but this is pretty major.

It is shocking that he still has a job. But I get it - it’s Fox where racist shit is not just tolerated but encouraged. Because to a certain segment of the population, this is what they want to hear and this is where they go to hear it. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

Trump has made more money off the presidency than every other president has combined in the last 230+ years.

You can take all the corruption from every single US administration in history, add it all together, and it will not equal the amount of corruption committed by the Trump Regime in less than two years.
