You know when they do the blinking, blasé tone, with the dismissive, back-and-forth head nod, they are lying. Grindr MAGA Mike does it all the time.

Bessent: The $2,000 divided could come in in lots of forms. It could be just the tax decreases Translation: You’re never getting those $2,000 checks.

I officially hate this man and EVERYTHING he stands for! No person of color EVER should support this piece of sh…..t! My opinion only!

The GOP isthe party of hypocrites. Good afternoon everyone. 🏈🏈🏈

The bizarre media narrative that Dems must choose between anti-Trump and affordability politics reflects a broad reluctance to accept that Trump is really unpopular. The way forward is a fusion of the two. They are often one and the same. 8/ (h/t @jamellebouie.net) newrepublic.com/article/2027...

Governor Newsom Deserves A Lot Of Credit For Fighting The Chump Regime and RepubliKKKans......

Overtaxed and unpaid air traffic controllers are resigning “every day” due to stress from the government shutdown.

Isn’t it amazing how a bad policy decision 40-years ago, with regard to Reagan’s firing of air traffic controllers, has a cumulative impact on bad republican decisions today. No wonder every Republican Administration ends in a recession or something worse.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Release Epstein files!

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

Put bluntly, can a law firm really represent a client zealously against the Trump’s administration when, at the same time, it is seeking to stay on Trump’s good side through an settlement agreement? ICYMI @rosenzweigp.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/big-law-bi...

It would seem like a natural moment for Trump to reassess that assumption that the American people are fired up in his favor. But then again, he's Trump.

Greg Bovino, everybody.

A silly metric but Im just saying: in Biden’s economy I could afford brunch or dinner out maybe once every few weeks. In Trump's economy, I havent gone out to eat for months at a time and have had zero brunches. Cost of food too high. Every bill went up. Fun luxuries are off the table.

And I know there are people far far far worse off who are doing it all with even less. And I know that hell, and ive been to that hell, and I am fighting desperately never to return to that hell. I hear lay off stories, hear ppl tell me how they are cutting corners, I hear the horror stories.

Looking forward to Ed’s response.

Ed Martin, using his official DOJ account, is now promoting an unsubstantiated conspiracy theory accusing a former Capitol Police officer of planting pipe bombs on J6. Just yesterday, a post from the same account claimed it was “false” that the DOJ had identified Shauni Kerkhoff as the suspect.

WTF??? They aren't caring for the children in their custody?

I am proud that my law firm is representing this amazing organization in this critical fight for the right to vote.

You’re kidding. A 30-yr mortgage is ridiculous enough.

I’m thinking his handlers may not think he’s still fit for the world stage. They just want to keep him alive & trot him out for supervised periods. The dementia is getting too unpredictable & pronounced to hide.

History has taught us that this is precisely when Donald Trump is most dangerous — and when Republicans turn to voter suppression, election subversion and worse. With the 2026 midterm elections less than a year away, Trump is already plotting his next moves. Here’s what we all need to prepare for.

Don’t sleep on this.

This is because Intuit, Inc. gave Donald Trump $1,000,000 for his "inauguration." Intuit owns Turbo Tax, which makes money off charging taxpayers to file their returns. The corruption is rampant and in plain sight.

One Gen Z female voter: "I think that the survival instinct is kicking in a little bit and it's affecting just about every piece of every person's lives." @racheljanfaza.bsky.social talks women's motivations for voting and more with @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social on The Focus Group:

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

"CBP have been forced to later release many people they have taken in, finding out they are US citizens or have legal protection from deportation. Noem said recently no citizens had been arrested, but at least one citizen has sued the admin for arresting him twice..." www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

WTF and courtesy of Donald Trump: Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted child sex trafficker & co-conspirator of Jeffrey Epstein, is "happier" in her new minimum-security digs: “I feel like I have dropped through Alice in Wonderlands looking glass. I am much much happier here and more importantly safe.”

GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social in TEXAS: “Let’s stand up for the rule of law. Let’s stand up for a system of checks & balances. And let’s stand up for our democracy — for all of us.” He celebrated the passage of Prop 50 in Abbott’s backyard. Will other states join? #CaliforniaClapback

We’re told the WILSON COUNTY man who wrapped his van to back @aftynbehn.bsky.social in TN-7 is 93 years old. www.facebook.com/share/p/17Yg...

And given the recent firings of journalists, Black women, progressives— so many people are going through the heart-wrenching identity loss, shock, income hit etc. m Journalism has always been a tough business, but this purge is truly dark.

Oh yeah…there’s also this. HSA funds are used to pay for *deductibles, co-pays & coinsurance*, not the premiums. You’d still need the insurance policy. “None of the Republican senators seemed to grapple with the fact that consumers would still need to buy plans from the same insurance companies.”

“Agents drove north on Kostner Avenue with neighbors in pursuit. Residents chased the convoy on foot, on scooters and in cars, sounding their horns … Inside the iron fence of the FBI office, agents emptied out of their cars to gather in a parking lot while civilians screamed profanities at them … ”

Democrats are salivating over the possibility of Rep. Elise Stefanik leading the Republican ticket in deep blue New York next year. Stefanik, a zealous Trump ally, launched her gubernatorial campaign Friday—handing Democrats a chance to tie every Republican in the state to Trump’s brand of politics.

"The planes also don't have engines, which would need to be purchased separately."

This video is incredibly hard to watch. This person likely has no idea what is happening or why. I've worked with these populations and this literally left me in tears. These people are absolute monsters with no souls. No one is safe.

Trump and his fellow unindicted Epstein co-conspirators get to enjoy a seafood buffet and ice sculptures at Mar-a-Lago after successfully getting the Supreme Court to block SNAP funds for hungry American kids. They couldn’t care any less about us.

Holy smokes! Look at what just happened… Question for Senator Jones: “Will you run for governor?” Doug Jones: “I guess I walked into that one, didn’t I? Stay tuned.” Don’t leave us hanging, @dougjones.bsky.social

Contrast this with the video I just posted of Americans standing in food lines this weekend, in the rain and cold. Don't have to wonder where the SNAP funds are.

Kristi Noem, reportedly authorized the purchase of Spirit Airlines jets before discovering the airline didn’t actually own the planes – and that the aircraft lacked engines. 🤡 She intended to use the jets to expand deportation flights – and for personal travel. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
