I asked X, Paramount, ABC, and Meta where their donations to Trump's Presidential Library went. None of them could give a clear answer. Tens of MILLIONS of dollars are missing. Why should Americans trust that this money isn’t going straight into Donald Trump’s pockets?

Anyway, am sure this is a fine person to oversee a new symbol of US democracy in our Capitol, which was designed to set us apart from European monarchies and showcase the humility and modesty of our leaders. 5/

Pete Hegseth quoted a fake Bible verse from the Tarantino movie Pulp Fiction yesterday during a Pentagon prayer service

It’s time to tell the DNC directly to Condemn AIPAC & End Citizens United. Because if you take corporate PAC money, whether it’s AIPAC, AI, or Crypto, you don’t represent us.

You paid your taxes, Congress sent billions to Israel, and AIPAC helps make sure it keeps happening. Even when people protest, policy doesn’t change.

Dear god. Very, very serious allegations of mass civil rights violations at the State of Florida's Everglades immigration detention center (officially known as "Alligator Alcatraz").

The bottom 95% of taxpayers will see tax INCREASES on average this year, driven primarily by expanded tariffs and expiration of health insurance credits. Meanwhile, the richest 1% alone will receive $117 billion in tax CUTS in 2026. Never forget who Trump governs for.

The LAPD is working with ICE & lying about it. After ICE throws our neighbors into cages in the B18 concentration camp in the Metro Detention Center, LAPD brutalizes protestors at the gate, but bc they’re just “guarding” the camp, they don’t report it Excellent reporting by @ericanders.bsky.social

"It’s misguided to treat the area around the memorial as a no-go zone for Muslims, since that would support Osama bin Laden’s lie that the 9/11 attack broadly represented Islam." That's not even the biggest problem.

Imagine no inflation It’s easy if you lie No oil blockaded Economy sky-high

Republicans took away your health care to pay for tax breaks for our nation’s wealthiest. Now, our worst fears have come true: premiums have become unaffordable, insurance coverage is out of reach for too many Americans and hundreds of hospitals could be closing.

Trump officials thought USAID ‘just did abortions’ before gutting agency, new book claims

While Trump is (barely) running the U.S. government, his family is raking in billions from crypto and overseas deals. Instead of, gee I don’t know, serving the American people, he’s monetizing the presidency. The boundary between policy and private profit? Nonexistent.

The Constitution and a court order both say that the Everglades detention facility must allow people access to their attorneys. Instead of complying, guards are cutting off people’s phone access and beating people who speak up.

The White House Correspondents' Dinner later this month – with Trump as guest of honor – is shaping up as an embarrassing surrender to a criminal president who is trying to destroy the free press. Cancel the damn dinner. My Stop the Presses newsletter.

Trump and his family members appear to have engaged in influence-dealing on a dramatically larger scale than the Biden family was ever accused of—but Fox is keeping its head in the sand.

This is what Times Square will look like when Congress or a cheeseburger finally does its job

ok NOW i bet Zelenskyy will thank JD Vance

THANK YOU MR. VICE PRESIDENT!!!

No one says it better than @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social

One of the ways news media often fail us is by giving us the microscopic rather than the telescopic view. Everything I mention in this essay is well-documented, but the dots are mostly not connected to make visible this death by a thousand cuts our country is undergoing.

And obtw the president

America's money goes to Hungary. To Argentina. To fund wars in Iran and invasions of Venezuela. It goes to kill shipwrecked survivors. To ICE, who shoot US citizens and build concentration camps Our money seems to fund death and destruction all across the globe But it never goes to help Americans

Best and final offer on Day 1?

Barack Obama sent seasoned diplomats and nuclear scientists to negotiate the Iran Deal. Donald Trump sent a few real estate bros and JD Vance. Failure was a foregone conclusion.

Oh, yeah, that was the Obama Iran deal.

Best Twitter riposte of the day is from Ronald Reagan's budget master.

Pro-tip for the Swalwell campaign staff now maligning the women accusing their boss of sexual misconduct: it's not worth it. There will be other campaigns and other candidates but there will never be another time that you won't regret behaving this way towards survivors.

This x 💯 x 💯

Started out with a bankroll from Daddy. Multiple business bankruptcies. How anyone ever thought he could run our country is still beyond me.

Q: How do you know you're living in a monarchy? A: When the laws are useless, and the separation of powers is dead; so you're reduced to praying that the tyrant dies-- because that's the only exit left.

The President should be prioritizing what’s made right here at home. www.duluthnewstribune.com/news/local/t...

Essential point, and it only gets more intense with time, such that a handful are oligarchs and the rest basically hopeless.

"Members of Congress take oaths of office in the same way that the President does. And if the President's not obeying his oath of office, the Constitution gives them the power, the obligation, & the duty to exercise their constitutional duty & obligation to impeach & remove the criminal president."

I report back from X to say that the right is in an incredibly dark place right now, building a narrative around undocumented immigrants that makes them the single biggest problem in the country, with the narrative that if you get rid of them, everything improves.

Note: this is not even a policy, meaning it has no teeth of any sort. It does not apply to family members. The identity of the small group of speculators now trading on insider information could easily be unmasked or revealed, but Trump has taken precautions to avoid this www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

New in PN: A regime of idiots — A complete inventory of Trump stooges "The downside of Trump’s reliance on sub-mediocre stooges is they amplify his own stupidity & terrible judgment. Dumb stooges inevitably emulate his sadism & laziness, leading to a govt marked by sociopathology on a grand scale."

It's been nearly five hours since the president of the United States posted a graphic snuff video of a man beating a woman to death with a hammer and there's no mention of it on the New York Times, Washington Post or CNN websites.

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM TELL THE IRANIANS ITS MY TURN TO USE THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ

Melania Trump wants these photos and emails to be scrubbed from the Internet. Please stop liking and sharing them. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

"When you have a president who's running the country like a mob boss instead of a government, who's running the government for himself, of himself, and by himself, & for his cronies, instead of the people, by the people, and for the people, there's only one solution, & that's impeachment & removal."

Trump has apparently just posted a video of a woman being murdered on his social media account. I am not watching it and you shouldn’t either. You should, however, call your reps and demand impeachment.

A documentary about the First Lady that costs Amazon $75,000,000 and barely makes a dent at the box office is not a smart investment on its own. But what if that same company secures a $580,000,000 Pentagon contract around the same time? Suddenly, the math starts to look different.

"Iran becomes the first Middle Eastern regime to withstand a combined attempt at regime change from Israel and the United States. This demonstration will be noted in Riyadh and all of the other capitals in the region." Tired of winning yet?

BREAKING: Trump announces two week window for Congress to remove him from office
