A member of Congress could literally bet on their own vote and profit 10x. A White House aide could bet on a tariff decision before it’s announced. Theres ZERO oversight. This isn’t innovation, it’s legalized insider trading on democracy itself. Ban Kalshi politics open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

Democratic lawyer Marc Elias said his election litigation boutique, Elias Law Firm, has been growing quickly in head count and demand since he launched it four years ago, partly thanks to a surge in litigation over voting rights and redistricting over the last year. www.law.com/newyorklawjo...

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw. The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

I'm all for reform to improve our public schools—I'm the one who rewrote No Child Left Behind. But Trump breaking apart the Department of Education isn't reform, it's sabotage. I'm fighting every way I can to stop him and protect public education.

Retired 4-star Army General Barry McCaffrey said the Pentagon's threats to Sen. Mark Kelly are making the U.S. start to look like the government of North Korea.

SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

I miss sane people being in office.

Republicans have never and will never come up with a health plan. They lack the intelligence.

Trump is pushing the hell factor to the next level against the American people. How many times must Americans say “he must be stopped “? Just one more time ? One thousand more times? This should be a free and SAFE country, and it’s not with Trump and his stand back and stand by criminals🤬.

Republican extremists are determined to rip healthcare away from the American people. They don’t give a damn about making your life more affordable. You deserve better.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

The worst president we have ever had is also a dangerous one.

Maybe putting a dozen narcissistic poser Fox hosts in charge of sprawling federal agencies with millions of combined employees and vastly important responsibilities with enormous power wasn’t the greatest plan.

Invading the capitol building to disrupt a congressional proceeding is seditious, not stating the obvious, namely, the military should only follow legal orders!

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said. Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

Costs are up bigly, and this is what Trump has been focused on. Malicious clowns.

"Letting the government control which journalists can cover the highest office in the land and setting rules about what those journalists can say or write is a direct attempt to undercut the First Amendment."- AP Executive Editor Julie Pace apnews.com/article/asso...

contrarian.substack.com/p/a-call-to-... “Success looks like a dent in sales of Home Depot, Target, and Amazon, and folks understanding there is a dent because of [these companies’] enabling of the administration.” In short, every dollar not spent sends a message.

Keep in mind that this serial liar also promised a hundred times during the campaign that he would be able to end the war “in 24 hours” with “one phone call” to Putin because he has “a great relationship” with him, “knows just what to say to him,” & “it won’t even be that hard.”

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

Trump is a failure of a president, the Ukraine “negotiation” proves this. But how pathetic is he? A 5 year old boy in the body of an 80 year old trying to still win his dads affection.

Against all odds, the survivors succeeded. Now that it will be the law of the land, anyone at the DOJ who does not comply is risking future prosecution and contempt of Congress.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left." It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

Kristi and Kash’s taxpayer-funded travel adventures continue.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends. We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over. We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

This week, I demanded the release of a 2019 phone call transcript between President Trump and MBS. This obviously touched a nerve. The very next day, they spew lies to silence and intimidate me. It’s not going to work

If you had told me Mamdani and MTG would both be in the news today, and gave me eleventy thousand guesses as to why, I’d … still be guessing.

"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." -FDR, 1937

Even though the polls keep showing how unpopular Trump is, we still need to vote to really make a difference.

Enten: "This is probably the worst 10 day period for the president in the polls his entire second term. The numbers are just atrocious ... when your best poll has you 14 points underwater, you know it's truly bad and it's as bad as 26 points underwater ... -43 with independents! They despise him."

MTG knows what’s going to happen next November…the GOP is toast.

A win! A federal judge has halted a Trump administration plan that relied on confidential tax records to target migrants for deportation. In a ruling issued today, the judge said the IRS improperly shared the tax information of several migrants earlier this year.

SCOTUS is again doing Trump’s bidding.

he never looks at JD that way

I am LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY at this meeting! Republican campaign consultants built their entire midterm strategy around making Mamdani into the devil incarnate and the face of Democratic Party, then Trump slobbers all over him today in the Oval!

Republicans bad mouth socialism. They don’t want government to have safety net programs for ordinary Americans. Yet Trump’s tax cuts for billionaires, his tariffs for negotiation, and his interest in various corporations is the reverse socialism for the rich and the powerful.

Unfortunately, I agree with this. They’re already doing things the Nazis did, things that are illegal to do, even to undocumented people. They have murdered people, from men on boats, to people in custody. The conditions of custody are unspeakable. People are being disappeared. ALREADY HAPPENING

The president is supposed to be a unifier, showing compassion and kindness, not hatred and violence.

Statement from Rep. Crockett on Threat at D.C. Office

Trump getting so upset about Democrat vets telling the military not to follow an ILLEGAL order tells me that he had plans of telling the military to do just that as he has done with the boat bombings near Venezuela.

BREAKING: A Maryland grand jury is now investigating whether FHFA Director Bill Pulte and DOJ official Ed Martin brought in unauthorized people to help run mortgage-fraud investigations into Trump critics.

Reminding people in the military and law enforcement of their oath and duty to the Constitution is only a bad thing to someone who wants to rip up the Constitution.

AI data centers are sucking up communities’ power & water. AI is being used by corporations to shaft consumers and is threatening young workers’ job prospects. So Trump wants to ram through a ban on state AI regulation — all to help out his Big Tech billionaire friends. Priorities.

Do you really think a Department of Justice that lies to judges about grand jury indictments is going to be open and honest about the Epstein Files?

Donald Trump is deeply unpopular. And the Republican economy is a complete disaster. You deserve better.
