that beep beep beep sound you hear is the president and his family backing a truck up to the US treasury... www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Oh,they're figuring it OUT! Oh MAGA! It's always been obvious it was staged. There doesn't exist any person who jumps into the line of fire for a photo op while bullets are flying. Especially not a coward like Trump. But the guy who knows no more shots are coming would. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

The Art of the Deal guy is an Idiot!

And there it is.... Update in Trump's $10 billion lawsuit against his own I.R.S., in which he seeks taxpayer-funded damages for the prior release of his tax records Trump legal filing says he's in "discussions" with his own I.R.S. to "avoid protracted litigation"

I hope when Kash is eventually fired they DO just lock him out of the FBI systems, bc that obviously is a deep fear of his and he deserves it. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

We created this guide for anyone who could experience a miscarriage in a state with abortion restrictions. We wrote it in consultation with dozens of doctors, including those who regularly treat patients who are miscarrying 👇

Several of MN defendants whose arrested Bondi staged in February complained that she violated sealing orders the govt had asked for. Weds, DOJ moved to dismiss the case in which defendant had moved aggressively for sanctions, Kirubele Adbebe, but not b4 AUSA tried to explain themself.

“The DOJ is never going to be the same. Even if we elect a competent administration and they appoint competent people, career people don’t suddenly get hired back,” “The institutional loss is generational, and it’s going to be decades to rebuild what has been lost.”

ICE is not broken. It's agents murdering people, taking trophies of victims, using illegal tactics, breaking laws, spreading terror, and leaving death cards are not isolated events, outliers, or accidents. ICE is operating exactly as intended.

I love seeing his campaign gain more traction after Swalwell dropped out. I hope California Dems consolidate their support behind him and push him ahead of billionaire Steyer and the two radical Republicans currently leading the race!

One year ago, I demanded CIA Director Ratcliffe answer for the Trump cabinet’s reckless discussion of classified information on Signal.  Nothing has changed: this Administration’s incompetence continues to put Americans at risk.

Satire: The morals of fairy tales passed thru a warped MAGA lens. Billy Goats Gruff: "The goats could have saved time and made money by threatening to destroy the bridge and kill the troll, then proposing a joint venture with the troll to split the proceeds paid by those crossing the bridge."

Genuine question: after 6 weeks of bombing Iran, the US has almost run out of Tomahawk missiles, and their Navy is running out of food. Car companies are being asked to make weapons. Other public spending is being slashed to bits. What the hell is their $1 trillion a year military budget spent on?

House Judiciary Democrats are launching a new investigation into Trump son-in-law — and Iran ceasefire negotiator — Jared Kushner, citing his "glaring and incurable conflict of interest." "To whom do your professional obligations and fiduciary duties belong?"

Remember when a bunch of right wing political advocacy groups were pretending to be educational nonprofits even though everyone knows goddamn well what it means that they have “tea party” in their name and they got investigated by Obama and it was supposed to be a horrible rights violation

🤷🏼

This should automatically trigger an Emoluments clause impeachment. It's a constitutional violation that even Congress cannot write a law to excuse.

Well, he’s doing it. tRump’s stealing billions of taxpayers’ dollars, and nobody’s stopping him. He’s setting the lawsuit he filed against the IRS for $10 billion. The person setting the lawsuit is his own deputy attorney general, Todd Blanche. #ProudBlue #AaronParnas #FucktRump #EatTheRich

Content warning. This is John Abendshien, 79. He previously owned the Winnetka house where “Home Alone” was filmed. He was just arrested & charged this week and charged on 7 counts of CSAM of children aged 4 to 15. Once again. Not an immigrant. Not a drag queen. Not a Mexican. smh

Delta Air Lines had no trouble endorsing the Big Beautiful Bill, which gave ICE a blank check to terrorize Minnesota during Operation Metro Surge. They flew Liam to an ICE concentration camp. Now they want a million dollars to build a new lounge at MSP. Join us on Monday to demand accountability.

A model by Klang and Lo shows that if current vaccination rates drop by half, polio, measles, rubella or diphtheria could return. Most of us are already vaccinated. But when more babies go unvaccinated, a larger share of them & others will be susceptible. 🧪 projects.propublica.org/childhood-va...

I am so grateful for the outpouring of support from Californians across this state. This is what a grassroots movement looks like. Real people showing up because they believe California deserves better. I believe that too. And I am ready to fight for it. Join us: XavierBecerra2026.com

There's going to be a huge house cleaning after the Democrats take back the country. First things first, returning the rightful names to everything. Here's a list. #ProudBlue #FucktRump #BlueWave #RESIST www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

The grift never ends. Most corrupt regime in history

Iran’s Parliament Speaker MB Ghalibaf accuses Trump of lying, saying he made “seven claims in one hour, all false.” He adds Iran—not the U.S.—will control the Strait of Hormuz, with ships requiring “Iranian authorization” to pass.

Missouri's murder rate is 73% HIGHER than California’s. No amount of right-wing spinning can change reality: our state is investing in prevention, enforcement, and is holding criminals accountable. The U.S. Senator from Missouri should fix his own failed policies before lecturing us.

Under no circumstances, even the threat of violence or prosecution, should Anthropic do any work for or collaborate with this administration.

Multiple news outlets say Anthropic's CEO is at the WH today. It's said to be a "high-stakes meeting" re. restrictions on use of AI by the gov't. In other words, the fact that he has no knowledge of that meeting is further evidence of his dementia.

🚨BREAKING: After losing five straight cases attempting to access state voter rolls, the DOJ tried to patch a key legal flaw in its Minnesota lawsuit — only to attach the wrong document and rely on a single, disputed allegation as its new justification. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

A UPS plane had to abort landing after a jet approached the runway at Louisville International Airport in Kentucky on Tuesday, in another near-miss this week. That guy from The Real World, Sean Duffy, really needs to get off Xitter whining about Democratic governors and start doing his actual job.

ALERT: Scott MacFarlane reveals new court filings showing Trump may receive a taxpayer-funded payout from his IRS lawsuit — while the DOJ also moves to return taxpayer money to pardoned January 6 defendants. Your tax dollars could be going directly to Trump and those involved in the Capitol attack.

Back on Feb 18, I interviewed Jocelyn Benson, who told me Dem Secretaries of State were running table-top exercises for these types of scenarios. You can listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Additionally, recall that John Eastman's conduct during this period was so bad, a federal judge held that his work product relating to overthrowing the election came within the crime-fraud exception. "The illegality of the plan was obvious," wrote the judge.

Nothing says “leadership” like taking credit for fixing a crisis you helped create. 13 U.S. troops are dead. A school full of innocent girls was destroyed. That’s not strength. That’s the cost. Leadership matters. This isn’t it. #GA14

The richest 10% of Americans own roughly 87% of stocks. The richest 1% alone own roughly half of all stocks. It's worth pointing out once again that the stock market is not the economy.

Update on where things stand on FISA: this deal is a win. We got the House to back down from an 18 month extension, buying us time to negotiate on real reforms. I'll be fighting like hell for reforms that put your privacy first, and will have more to share soon.

The Kennedy Center is the premier cultural event space in our Capitol. What Trump and his appointees are doing there is a disgrace.

CNN: "The Justice Department has removed the career Miami federal prosecutor leading the investigation into John Brennan, after she resisted pressure to quickly bring charges against the former CIA director and prominent critic of President Donald Trump, according to people briefed on the matter."

Beautiful lady Candy Corn Is Still waiting for that special person to find her and love her. Please Repost ♥️

A small cohort of ("prominent"?) law professors are trying to portray John Eastman as some kind of innocent victim of viewpoint discrimination, and his disbarment as some kind of assault on the First Amendment. That's complete and utter bollocks. As usual, @gabrielmalor.bsky.social brings receipts:

"DOJ officials met with [US Attorney] Quiñones and others in his office to discuss the investigation’s progress, sources told CNN. Quiñones told the officials that charges could still be months away, sources say, which top Justice officials told him was not acceptable." www.cnn.com/2026/04/17/p...

A journalist who shared a CNN video of a US jet being downed has disappeared in Kuwait.

Meta is expected to slash 10% of its global workforce - 8000 employees - in the first round of layoffs on May 20, Reuters reports. And more to come, How’s that AI working out for you?

Donald Trump, an 80-year-old man, bizarrely claims on live TV that he is not a senior citizen. The US President is completely detached from his own physical reality. Having a leader this deeply confused commanding the military during a global war is terrifying.

Tesla. Disney. CVS Health. United Airlines. PayPal. Billions in profits. $0 in federal corporate income taxes. That money should be funding schools, healthcare, and public services. This is why people are mad as hell.
