A warning sign of fascism is when independent courts, a free press, and fair elections come under pressure. Strong democracies rely on checks and balances, accountability, and the peaceful transfer of power.

Corporate spending on elections has already topped $500 million this year. That's one third of the $1.58 billion in total that corporations have spent since Citizens United in 2010. Hawaii and Montana both have plans to neutralize this disastrous SCOTUS ruling. Watch.

Interesting. McConnell’s “proof of life” photo dropped shortly after this segment. 🤔 Gov. Beshear says Republicans changed the law to stop him from appointing a U.S. senator if a vacancy occurs. He argues the Kentucky Constitution gives him that authority and says he’s ready to fight it in court.

Like so many others…He knew it was wrong, but kissed the ring for his own selfish ambitions.

So, this shitshow dumpster fire of a fascist regime put the sitting president of the United States on an airplane that could not protect him from missiles, and flew him to the neighboring country of one we are currently striking with… missiles? Are you fucking kidding me?

yes, please, stop

😬 😬

Y’all need to stop

LAWRENCE JONES: Today marks two years since they tried to assassinate you in Butler. How are you feeling? TRUMP: I've known Ainsley longer than the two of you. I've known her through a very handsome man named Sean Hannity. She seemed to be attracted to him for whatever the hell reason.

Trump on Butler: "It was amazing how I understood exactly -- and I knew it was the ear. They thought it was all over. Because the ear bleeds. So I got hit in the ear. I knew I only got hit there."

If you haven't been tracking @atrupar.com this morning as he live-posts Trump's Fox and Friends interview, you really should. Trump is just overcome with emotion about the loss of his enemy-turned-ally. You can hear the trembling in his voice. Never thought he would be so vulnerable.

Sen. Roger Marshall on Lindsey Graham: "Did this really happen to one of my besties? ... I'll especially miss him in the cloak room."

Rest in Pusillanimity. My Lindsey Graham obituary for @atrupar.com Public Notice. Please read and share, thx! substack.com/@tomschaller...

“Let there never be any confusion over the choice Lindsey Graham made. He chose Trump over his friend. He chose Trump over his country. He chose Trump over his duty. He chose Trump over his oath.” —Steve Schmidt

I'm going to KEEP talking about how Florida Senator Rick Scott, the RICHEST man in all of Congress DEFRAUDED Medicare & is trying to CUT Social Security. Will you join me?🤚

"But then, like many others, he made the decision to abandon his previous ideals, to bury the patriotism that was once so important to him, and to become, instead, a loud, opportunistic collaborator." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

I still can't believe the FBI admitted it has Epstein training videos that should have been released under the Esptein Files Transparency Act. My lawsuit continues! If you missed the live broadcast earlier, you can watch it here. Never any paywalls. www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-e...

Conor McGregor blew his knee out in less than a min and Lindsay Graham suddenly passed away. The world is slowly healing

Trump approved disaster aid requests from six red states last week. Two days later, he rejected aid requests from four blue states. Not only is he punishing states who didn’t vote for him, he’s playing politics with people’s lives. Despicable.

There is exactly ONE active criminal investigation into Epstein's ranch. It's stuck. Not for lack of evidence...because the DOJ won't hand it over. New piece. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Impeach them all. From top to bottom Some Supreme Court justices too.

Mission Accomplished

My personal Lindsay Montage - ask any bartender on Capital Hill to verify the following. Lindsey was a bottom who moved young dark men and lovely lingerie- high end. I’ve written about this many times- no surprises.

They said at the hospital that the atrial flutter I'm having right now won't kill me and I shouldn't worry about it. When your heart monitor gives a reading of 242, it's kinda scary. My stupid watch that I just bought, gave a reading of 62.. Probably going to return it.

This is how I always imagined I looked, running past my MAGA neighbor's open door yelling, "I AM ANTIFA!" Hahaha!

I got to know Senator Lindsey Graham traveling with him abroad in Afghanistan and Ukraine. We had just met to renew the fight for our Big Tech bill. Even though we disagreed on much, he was always willing to negotiate, with humor and wit. My heart goes out to his loved ones.

Remember how Trump responded when he was asked about Charlie Kirk two days after he died bsky.app/profile/atru...

Would love it if Nancy "Fifth Place" Mace took a chance here.

Beshear on Lindsey Graham: "His policies, other than support for Ukraine and belief that Russia is the aggressor, is about the only thing I can imagine that we agreed upon, but certainly thinking about his family today"

Beshear on McConnell: "I'm concerned. I get that we all have a right to privacy for our health, but when you run for an office like mine or Sen. McConnell's you answer to the voters. If you're in the hospital for an entire month, you owe it to the people who elected you to give them an update."

Literally holding a newspaper.

"Graham said he complained he was feeling unwell. When urged to seek care, Graham said he would after his scheduled appearance on NBC Graham joked: 'I can't die now. I still need to do the Russia sanctions, get Iran sorted out & do Israeli-Saudi normalization' He passed away several hours later."

Just curious what the conclusion is here. A guy in the ICU sitting in a chair as if he’s not in the hospital and is going to Fancy Farm looking better than ever holding a recent newspaper smiling? No audio no video. No comment on Lindsey Graham dying. And Scott is a known liar.

Mitch McConnell sitting in a chair looking 10 years younger than we have seen him in years recovering CPR in the ICU and whatever else we don’t know outside emergency audio dispatch is the equivalent of Donald Trump regrowing an ear.

McConnell has released a proof of life photo

See the difference here, folks? #USDemocracy

She told Congress she never met a single one of them. Survivors say she's the one who asked for their school IDs. 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/a-good-wee...

I wonder if we’ll FINALLY find out what 47 had on Graham? He was completely cowed after that golf game. Pretty sure that Graham isn’t resting in peace.

trump: "I said, 'Lindsey, you're gonna live forever.' And he was gonna have a big victory. He was scheduled to win by a lot. He was scheduled." Scheduled? Scheduled to win by a lot??? The ONLY way someone is 'scheduled to win' is by cheating. Congress needs to do their fucking job right now! WTF

TAPPER: Iran has declared the Strait of Hormuz closed. Is that true? TRUMP: It's open as far as we're concerned. Don't talk about it. Talk about the reason you asked me to speak.

“Jiminy Christmas, if you bury me in one of your goddamn golf courses, like you did to that first wife you cheated on, I’ll be fixin’ to go to every séance in town and tell folks how she got to the bottom of those friggin’ stairs. Gurl, don’t test me.”

Nice

🤦‍♀️

What an embarrassment
