This is simply bonkers. The White House is in active discussions with DOJ about settling Trump's lawsuit against the IRS in his favor, *precisely because* a judge might soon throw it out. WH apparently wants DOJ to agree to "settle" the lawsuit *before* that happens. Utter insanity.

Someone should run the numbers and figure out just how much the orange dementia patient has cost this country with his Covid non-response, tax cuts 4 the rich, insane tariffs, kneecapping of green energy, and the Iran War (& rel inflation) Easily in the TRILLIONS Complete self-own Thanks MAGA! 😡

Every so often, truth escapes Donald Trump's lips. This is true. Trump doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone's financial situation except his own and that of his cronies.

I'm with Teddy on this one.

It’s time to release the files. And, to hold every single perpetrator out there accountable. Period. #EpsteinFilesToEpsteinTrials

so inspiring! can't you just picture his mom insulting him at the breakfast table like that? "Dumb little Donnie, thinking he knows things!"

Perfect campaign ad for the upcoming Midterms. 👌

Rep. Stansbury: "This administration is choosing to not investigate the crimes that are in these files. The administration is choosing to release the names of survivors and not perpetrators…The administration is trying to gaslight the American people."

It's not just that the FBI director is acting like a spoiled child; he keeps repeating the dumb lie that Van Hollen was "drinking margaritas with a felon" when he visited Kilmar Abrego Garcia. As a reminder, it was a stunt from the El Salvador regime, who put sugar-rimmed glasses on the table.

TRUMP: “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. Not even a little bit.” And there you have it, folks

“Those who feel like they can intimidate our fellow [Muslim] citizens to take out their anger don't represent the best of America, they represent the worst of humankind, and they should be ashamed of that kind of behavior.” --George W. Bush, six days after 9/11

One reason FDR's court-packing plan failed to catch on is that the Supreme Court was perceived by many Americans as apolitical and therefore a victim of unwarranted aggression from the president. This court, however, is nakedly partisan. And any Democrat in power should be saying so early and often

It’s a great way to put it. (They’re giving the Head Arsonist a pass at every turn, too)

The foundation of our democracy is burning to the ground. The conservative Roberts Court did not light the match, but it has repeatedly declared fire hydrants, sprinklers and smoke detectors illegal. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

its very funny to say “i was the hunted now im the hunter” at a mid-day meeting where you fell asleep at your desk

Trump will go to Walter Reed in two weeks for an "annual physical" and a "dental checkup." He has already been to the dentist twice in 2026, and just had his last annual physical six months ago in October.

It’s so good because it’s sooooo accurate. Most folks can’t really wrap their heads around it, but trump thinks of himself as a world-conquering emperor, not a president. He thinks he’s the owner of the United States, instead of its servant. Hence the ballroom (trump temple), the arch, etc etc

Trump is posting absolutely deranged shit on social media this morning ahead of departing for China today. Get a load of this stuff.

Any questions about why the GOP is desperately trying to cheat before the midterms?

where is john roberts to tell us that this is just one of those apolitical, unpopular decisions the court has to make sometimes?

I spent the first 50 years of my life thinking these fuckers were defeated and that they’d all be marginalized by now. Then the felon was elected and they all came out of the sewers again. How many times do we have to defeat the white southern/rural culture of prideful ignorance and bigotry?

this all began because Rupert Murdoch complained to Donald that Fox was losing market share under these new NFL streaming arrangements our press repeatedly helps Trump pretend that transactional cronyism is good faith consumer-friendly antitrust reform with a focus on "affordability"

Yep, @andycraig.bsky.social is right: At this point, the *very worst* scenarios abolutely cannot be ruled out, and preparations should be made for everything:

all this sweaty calvinball horseshit feels like hysterical panic from the court

Nothing says “restoring trust in public health” more than having a right-wing economist who has never practiced medicine in charge of the National Institutes of Health and Centers for Disease Control. You can really tell he has literally never treated a single patient or a single infectious disease.

Florida. Mississippi. Louisiana. Tennessee. Alabama. The Trump courts and MAGA allies are resorting to a playbook that's as old as this country: silencing Black representation in government.

🚨 #SleepyDon branded “UNFIT TO SERVE” after video shows him dozing off in the Oval Office—eyes closed, head drooping during a maternal health briefing on saving moms’ lives. The guy who mocked Biden as “Sleepy Joe” can’t stay awake on the job. America deserves better. mcsp.short.gy/8c38

important thing to note here is dr oz cites a current american replacement rate of 1.5, which is not true. the american replacement level in 2025 was 1.79. interestingly, the white replacement rate is in fact at 1.5 though

We’re less than 90 minutes from Justice Alito’s entirely arbitrary 5 p.m. deadline for his administrative stays in the mifepristone case. As I explained last week, Alito is the only justice who regularly imposes these time limits—and he only does it in cases in which he doesn’t like the applicants:

i can't believe this is really what they're going with lmao

sure gas is headed to $8/gallon but at least cornell got rid of their gender studies classes. or at least i think they did, i haven’t checked and if im being honest i wouldnt really know if they had or hadnt because it doesnt affect me but it makes $8/gallon gas all worth it

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

this graduation speech moment is notable, and her amazed shock at having failed to read the room feels instructive. when you're inside the bubble, you think everybody else is. but everybody isn't.

hey Dems! RFK is trying to get millions killed...seems like a good thing to add to the midterm campaign agenda! (they're only being quiet about it because it's ALSO killing their poll numbers) SPEAK UP the vast majority of the public is with you! www.nytimes.com/2026/05/11/h...

What happened to I’m not bothered? Donald Trump clearly expects things to get much worse and fast. The President’s trying to save face from getting into a war that’s crushing Americans at the pump.

Trump is losing this war, and everyone can see it. The so-called ceasefire with Iran isn’t holding it’s a face-saving measure dressed up as diplomacy. Meanwhile, Congress is sitting on its hands while American forces are engaged in active combat operations abroad.

With our team of 60 lawyers, Elias Law Group is currently litigating 85 voting and election cases in 43 states plus DC. Perhaps someone should ask the law firms with thousands of lawyers how many pro-democracy cases they are handling. For most, the answer is zero.

right? can you imagine being a MAGAt, reading this, and going, "omg trumpov is sooooo incredibly good at this game!" ??? 🙄

How can he possibly stay safe without a ballroom?

They dared to dream of undoing the 20th century. It’s inspiration in the most perverse way. badfaithtimes.com/the-american...

Powerful MAGA

Ahem

I'm still in favor of bulldozing it entirely, but I think just talking about repurposing it like this is healthy too.

AOC on possibly running for the Senate or President: They assume my ambition is a title or a seat. My ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, elected officials come and go, single payer healthcare is forever.

NEWS: Virginia Dems have filed a motion asking the Supreme Court of Virginia to delay issuing its mandate striking down the congressional redistricting referendum. The filing states the Commonwealth intends to file an emergency petition with the U.S. Supreme Court of seeking review of the decision.
