Trump has made special concessions for both Apple and Nvidia that will boost their bottom lines. Trump's latest financial filings show that he owned stock worth more than $600,000 in both companies as recently as last year. See the problem here?

NEW: Rep. Sam Liccardo (D-CA) introduces legislation requiring Trump Administration to reveal cost of National Guard deployment Bill requires Administration "submit a mandated report outlining the deployment's legal basis, aim, and cost to taxpayers" liccardo.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

🇺🇸 National Guard soldier speaks out: “I swore an oath to defend our constitution… seeking refuge is not an act of violence. Locking people up for it is.”

If you want to put back statues and memorials and names of Confederate traitors while tearing down museum exhibitions on slavery because they don't show the greatness of the nation... the nation whose history you're celebrating is whiteness. The kind of nationalist you are is a white nationalist.

Of course a strong black woman is standing strong in Tx. She’s an intelligent attorney who knows what she’s doing and they will regret their illegal actions. But once again, strong black women taking action and showing the path forward!

Brian Tyler Cohen BREAKING: DEMOCRATIC REP. NICOLE COLLIER IS OFFICIALLY SUING REPUBLICANS FOR LOCKING HER IN THE TEXAS HOUSE CHAMBER. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx They are a group of despicable people.

If this is what Fox is saying, you know it was a disaster.

This would explain a lot.

"Newsom’s threat to retaliate in kind is not a divisive attack on good governance. It is, instead, the only hope for democracy. Bipartisanship right now is appeasement. Democrats cannot and should not hide behind neutrality and fairness as MAGA incinerates the remaining tatters of our republic."

NEW: When public officials use donor money for personal gain, it undermines voters’ trust in government. That's why Campaign Legal Center filed complaints alleging Speaker Mike Johnson is illegally using campaign funds for his rent in D.C. 1/

So, Governor Newsom must be 6'6"

For those just discovering John Sauer's batshit letter from @stevevladeck.bsky.social's post, I did a video about it last week. It isn't just LIKE a Trump Tweet--letter is mostly regurgitation of Trump's tweets. @asharangappa.bsky.social @bradmossesq.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=it5-...

Federal agents violently detained a food delivery driver as he emerged from a D.C. coffee shop Saturday morning. The incident captured on video showed the officers throwing him to the ground and beating him before sweeping him away in an unmarked vehicle. wapo.st/45Egtkc

Republicans spent years screaming for the Epstein Files to be released. Now Donald Trump wants to hide them. Today, every R can vote to release the files. Will they give the American people transparency or block the truth to protect Trump?

Nice try AG Pam Bondi. What about videos, photographs and other recordings? What about FBI 302’s (witness interviews)? What about texts and emails? That’s where the evidence about Trump and others will be. Grand jury testimony will only relate to Epstein and Maxwell.

Trump and Bondi are trying to gaslight you into believing they're turning over the Epstein Files. Don't believe them. Grand jury testimony won't include anything relating to any other people involved in the sex trafficking ring. We deserve the truth. Release ALL the files.

WIRED reviewed its findings with two independent video forensics experts who confirmed that the edit occurred just before the missing minute mark and that approximately three minutes of footage were cut from the original clip. From @dmehro.bsky.social:

Breaking: littlevillagemag.com/poll-kim-rey...

So much for that “line.”

This comes after WIRED previously reported that the video had been stitched together in Adobe Premiere Pro from two video files, contradicting the Justice Department’s claim that it was “raw” footage. It’s unclear what, if anything, the minutes cut from the first clip showed.

NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”

Exactly!

Phang: Bloomberg is reporting that AG Bondi fired her personal ethics adviser on Friday. A career DOJ attorney, spent nearly 20 years at the DOJ. What harm is there in having an ethics guru? If you’re not doing anything wrong, you shouldn’t have a problem with that man being there.

Now that’s a good pup… 🐶 Who would give this good pup a treat….

In the past decade, as extreme weather killed nearly 700 people in Texas, the state relinquished $225 million in federal grant money that it was supposed to spend on protecting residents from disasters, federal records show. subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eene...

Dude, if you're still posting "first they came for" -- that was a decade ago. They're building death camps now.

Alligator Alcatraz = internment camp. This broke me… “32 individuals inside a cage. It was 81° where we were standing…inside it was probably even hotter. How do I know? Because there was individuals sweating with their shirt off, while they chanted libertad, libertad, libertad.” - State Sen Jones

Meiselas: Mar-A-Lago was used as the grounds in cases to sex traffic underage girls. And this isn't me being conspiratorial... it's documented.

Trump has had random bruises on his right hand for months. This is clearly covered in concealer or makeup. Now his ankles are massively swollen in this picture taken at the FIFA Club World Cup.

Tomi Lahren just posted on the other place that the federal government should “let California go” and that California should get “not one dime.” Where does she think the federal government gets most of its dimes?

Pollster: Take a look at Trump's net approval rating on immigration. A lot of focus on Gallup at -27. That's horrible. Quinnipiac University, -16. That's awful. Marist is bad at -9. Fox at -7. Bad to just downright terrible. The American people have turned against Trump on what was his best issue

Musk’s artificial intelligence tool ‘Grok’ has landed a $200 million government contract, days after the chatbot’s antisemitic X rampage.

More from Sotomayor's dissent: "When the Executive publicly announces its intent to break the law, and then executes on that promise, it is the Judiciary’s duty to check that lawlessness, not expedite it. ... The majority is either willfully blind to the implications of its ruling or naive."

BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to move forward with the abolition of the Department of Education. It gives no explanation for its order. All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25... From Sotomayor's dissent:

The Supreme Court's disdain for Congress, the statutory design of agencies, and the public services they provide to millions truly astounds. Destroying a 50-year-old Cabinet-level department may be the biggest violation of the Take Care Clause in U.S. history—and six justices simply ... don't care.

Epsteingate burning up MAGAt World! Burn Baby, Burn ! According to Steve Bannon, “You’re going to lose 10 percent of the MAGA movement. If we lose 10 percent of the MAGA movement right now, we’re gonna lose 40 seats in ’26. We’re gonna lose the president.” thehill.com/homenews/hou...

A coalition of 24 states and the District of Columbia filed a lawsuit today against the Trump administration, demanding the release of $6.8 billion in education funding that has been unlawfully withheld.

When you are educated, it increases your capacity to empathize at a higher level of consciousness.

This is good news for Ukraine. The pressure campaign seems to be working. Keep it up www.cnn.com/2025/07/14/p...

8/ Turns out there’s a parallel money-laundering industry that helps scammers do just that. They’re called “motorcades” (车队) in Chinese and they’re incredibly efficient at helping fraudsters collect and move stolen funds.

5/ Important note: Many of the workers are also victims of human trafficking who’ve been tricked into working inside these fraud factories. Here’s Cezary's report on the crushing cycle of victimization involved in pig-butchering scams:

FUCK RTUMP ! IT'S THE "GULF OF MEXICO" AND ALWAYS WILL BE !

So they use the emergency alerts for non emergencies, which means people are missing actual emergencies? Maybe whoever is in charge of this should read the boy who cried wolf.

The latest as of 9:00 pm ET: At least 51 dead, including 15 children. Authorities say there is “no cap” to the number of missing. That includes the 27 girls from Camp Mystic.
