The official investigation into the January 6 riots concluded Trump “summoned the mob, assembled the mob, and lit the flame of this attack" in an effort to halt the peaceful transfer of power. No billion dollar lawsuit can change reality. The BBC should call this convicted criminal’s bluff.

instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways: First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices. Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.

Maybe Corporate Media could have, should have, spent less time reporting what voters thought Trump was going to do “lower prices” “help working families” and more time reporting on how voters were wrong, that his policies would *RAISE PRICES* *CRUSH WORKING FAMILIES*, would have been useful for US.

Easy to believe this guy ignored someone who passed out in the Oval Office. He did ignore a guest at a Mar-a-Lago event who fell off the stage and split his head open and complained about the blood staining his marble floor. The lack of empathy is on-brand.

Omg.. c'mon media, when you ask "Why did the president pardon someone who he claims not to know", and they answer, "I haven't seen that." The follow-up is "Well now you know, so what do you have to say"? This is just ludicrous. "I don't know" is basically "I dont care".
