Democrats need 3 seats to flip Congress, stop Trump, and hold that criminal megalomaniac accountable. But with MAGA and the far-right Supreme Court doing EVERYTHING they can to stop Democrats from winning… every seat counts!!

Trump’s reported $1.8B “insurrectionist fund” tells you everything. No money for healthcare. No money for struggling families. No money for affordable housing. But somehow there’s ALWAYS money for loyalty, revenge, pardons, propaganda, and protecting Trump’s mythology. America deserves better.

Fun fact: North Carolina still hasn’t recovered from hurricane Helene, and Trump wants $2 billion to give people who smeared shit on the walls of the Capitol.

Just unbelievable corruption. He said he would drain the swamp, instead he brought in the swampiest administration in history, declared himself Supreme Emperor of Swampopia, and ordered his justice department to essentially give his entirely family immunity.

The grifter in Chief

What a stupid thing to tweet. “I’ve been asked to hold off on our military attack of Iran, which was scheduled for tomorrow” I’m very skeptical that any serious negotiations are actually happening.

Trump released the largest weekly strategic reserve distribution in history last week - almost 10 million barrels. Oil is still over $100 a barrel and gas is at record seasonal highs. This is gonna get ugly if it’s not resolved soon.

While Trump posts surrender fantasies on social media, Putin and Xi are signing 40 real deals, Iran just formalized control over the Strait of Hormuz, and his DOJ is handing $1.776 BILLION in taxpayer money to J6 criminals. Ben has the latest updates:

this would be an excellent time for donald trump to *not* have installed the host of a youtube show called "erection connection!" as the person charge of infectious disease policy for the united states of america. www.statnews.com/2026/05/17/e...

Unlike my opponents, I’m not taking a single cent of Corporate PAC money. I am going to Congress to fight for New Yorkers, not Wall Street executives. That's why my campaign needs grassroots support, so we can keep up with all of the PAC money that is being flooded into this race.

Trump personally bought and sold millions of dollars worth of stock in technology companies and government contractors early this year, according to government records. In total, he made at least $220 million in financial transactions. The Trump admin directly regulates some of these companies.

It’s really hard to describe how insane this story is. Of course Patel went snorkeling over the USS Arizona - that’s what happens when you put an irreverent internet troll in charge of a government agency. Disrespectful assclown.

I hate to admit it but John Bolton is right again.

We all have occassion to say this a lot in this era, but seriously this is the craziest goddamn thing I've read in a very very long time abcnews.com/US/trump-poi...

People seem legitimately surprised that Trump is using his tweets to pump stock he owns and buying or selling based off of confidential information he receives as POTUS. Grifting is his entire personality. Why is anyone shocked?

Trump must have just learned that when Xi Jinping invoked the Thucydides Trap to his face, he was essentially calling the United States a nation in decline. Now, Trump is trying to spin it, claiming that Xi must have been talking about Biden. Really humiliating stuff.

Xi: America is declining as a world power Trump: HE MEANT UNDER SLEEPY JOE!! No, you assclown - he meant because you’re intentionally isolating the US on the world stage and GIVING our influence away.

The GOP is doing that thing again where they pretend the JCPOA (Obama nuclear deal) wasn’t working, despite our intelligence community, the IAEA, and our allies all confirming that it was. And the fact that all Iran’s significant enrichment happened after Trump pulled out. 🤷‍♂️

MAGA is currently celebrating the fact that… Trump took a sip of alcohol, and acting like he just cured world hunger. It’s a fucking cult.

They're playing for all the marbles. Americans are asleep. newrepublic.com/post/210342/...

There it is: "I don't think about Americans' financial situation, I don't think about anybody, I think about one thing: we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon." He doesn't care about anyone's economic pain.

Hear, hear!

Gas prices: record seasonal high Beef prices: record high Farmers: bankruptcies up 46%, can’t get fertilizer Foreclosure rates: 6 year high Epstein pedos: still being protected MAGA: at least we owns the libs.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

UAE is reportedly bombing Iran right now. Iran says they aren’t going to negotiate on nuclear weapons at this stage. Close to a peace deal, my ass.

Fascinating story I haven't seen anywhere. Really worth a read.

A competent leader of the FBI would not have to polygraph subordinates.

People are already peddling ivermectin for Hantavirus. The same people had never heard of Hantavirus 3 days ago. We live in the dumbest possible timeline.

President Obama to Stephen Colbert: "We can survive a lot." "We can't overcome the politicization of our justice system … You can't have a situation in which whoever is in charge of the government starts using that to go after their political enemies or reward their friends."

Hero.

Much appreciation to Snopes for work like this — www.snopes.com/fact-check/r...

Independent estimates warn the Iran War has cost $72B so far — nearly triple what Trump's DoD has admitted. That's over $1 billion per day. People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want affordable housing. They want their basic needs met.

But when it comes to winning back the House for Democrats, I’m worried this attack will energize the MAGA base. Trump’s billionaire buddies are about to start pouring money into silencing anyone who speaks out against Trump. We can’t let that happen.

The Trump administration has raided the office of L. Louise Lucas, the Virginia Democrat who led the successful redistricting effort against his gerrymandering. apnews.com/article/l-lo...

How about getting him out sooner?

The cost of living is surging under Trump — almost entirely due to his tariffs and war of choice on Iran. Voters are paying attention.

BIG: Democrats will control the Michigan state Senate through the remainder of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's term.

Imagine being Hegseth and giving your stupid “red white and blue dome” speech, or Marco spending an hour defending Project Freedom only to have Trump yank the rug out from under you a few hours later. Insane.

Despite EXTREME backlash from both sides of the political spectrum, trump keeps whining about his ballroom. But now? That same ballroom that wasn't supposed to cost taxpayers a penny went from $200M, to $400M, to $1 BILLION in taxpayer funds. That's going to backfire, bigly.

Trump Friday: maybe we’re better off not making a deal with Iran Trump Saturday: I’ve rejected Iran’s ridiculous proposal Trump this morning: we very well could resume strikes on Iran Trump right before futures open: talks very positive! US will escort ships through Strait! 🙄

The amount of people defending Blanche saying you have to show ID to walk into a restaurant is really making me question the public education system

POTUS has a dentist on call 24/7. This is another weird disappearance around the first of the month for Trump.

Trump’s war in Iran put Spirit out of business, and it’s likely going to make air travel prohibitively expensive. Gas is well over $4 a gallon, consumer confidence is in the toilet, and we have no plan to reverse any of it. Are we great again yet?

Some people are Ridiculous! 😬

A majority of Americans say their financial situation is worse than it was during two recessions. Any more questions on why the GOP wants to keep people from voting?

“Trump’s grip on the Republican Party faces these challenges” Stop it. Trump could waddle naked across the South Lawn screaming about how Obama was spying on him from inside the White House microwave, and the GOP would clap like obedient seals.
