A remark — and a lifetime of not giving AF — suggests yes.

Why would he stop? He bought control of the federal government early in Trump’s term. The $260 million he used to bankroll Trump’s campaign was a bargain.

MIN: Do you know how much new energy China put online last year? BURGUM: Intermittent or base load? M: 543 GW. How much was renewable? 434 GW. B: But only when the sun is shining M: Meanwhile, the US put up 53 GW of new energy last year - less than 10% of China. You're harming our natl security

The conservatives on the Supreme Court haven’t been inconsistent — they’ve been remarkably consistent — by always ruling in favor of whatever helps the Republican Party’s likelihood of gaining and maintaining power.

Just want to remind folks: In 2000, SCOTUS *STOPPED* the counting of votes, because it would cause "irreparable harm" to Bush if the count were to show he lost, but then they later invalidated. The delay then made it impossible for Gore to do anything once SCOTUS ruled against him. So: Nothing new!

A woman demonstrating her exceptional intelligence in contrast to a wealthy but arrogant individual.

The largest ever settlement or jury award for government violations of constitutional rights to a single person is $100 million, or 1 percent of what Trump demanding for the leak of his tax returns. That case -- a killing by police -- was reduced to $1 million on appeal.

This is simply bonkers. The White House is in active discussions with DOJ about settling Trump's lawsuit against the IRS in his favor, *precisely because* a judge might soon throw it out. WH apparently wants DOJ to agree to "settle" the lawsuit *before* that happens. Utter insanity.

God damn.

This is theft of $10 billion from American taxpayers. Trump and his family should be charged. Congressional Republicans should be charged as accessories before the fact.

The developers of Microsoft Teams should be convicted of war crimes.

States searching for ways to make up for the GOP's $900 billion in Medicaid cuts are planning to cap dental benefits. But history has shown that these cuts are a fool’s bargain, with dire consequences for both states’ budgets and their residents’ health.

Impeach.

Even in the pre-Elon days of Twitter — if you opted for the “for you” feed rather than the chronological feed — you were a mark.

I’m begging one of these reporters to respond to Trump calling them dumb with “at least I understand how percentages work”

This would constitute one of the most brazen, most appalling acts of corruption in U.S. history. I know we’re numb to all of this but this is a seven-alarm fire. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/12/b...

Reminder that Florida voters passed a Constitutional amendment in 2010 banning gerrymandering with 62% of the vote and the Florida GOP just stole the courts and ignored it. By contrast retaliatory gerrymanders in CA and VA passed with the approval of voters. Yet media portrays them as equivalent.

Let this radicalize you

We’re the FIRST state to ban dynamic pricing in grocery stores. Here’s why:

Not to belabor this, but Jake Tapper treated the White House being less than forthcoming on the health of an aging president like it was the biggest scandal in American history.

“I’s time” is so much worse than misspelling potato.

The mainstream media refuse to call Donald Trump a racist. For reasons.

When we took office, NYC had a $12B deficit. Today it’s zero. And we didn’t close that gap on the backs of working people. We closed it while funding parks, libraries, safer streets, & public housing. Call it Pothole Politics or Democratic Socialism: We are government that delivers for the people.

“It will all just work out” is definitely something a rich white man would think and say.

Seems bad.

GOP: All we racists need to exercise this racist policy is to pretend we’re partisans — not racists — got it? Ralph Norman: but we are racists

I can’t believe how dumb this shit it. Cartoonish.

Gen-X is such an embarrassment.

We are living on stolen land.

If the Strait doesn't re-open soon, I believe we could see the national average price of gasoline reaching $5/gal as early as sometime in June.

Seems bad.

If I could solve only one problem with Beltway Media, it'd be to have them hold Trump to any kind of objective standard. Trump promised two things during the 2024 campaign: 1. He'll bring back manufacturing jobs 2. He'll tame inflation Both of those are headed in the wrong direction -- and fast.

Everything is more expensive because Donald Trump is Netanyahu’s pet.

Colossal failure.

southern state governments are banning black congressional representation and installing statues of men who waged a war to continue the enslavement of black people in public parks

Impeach.

Cuts to SNAP amount to political violence.

This is dead on. If the Democrats retake the House and Senate--or even just the House--it could mark the beginning of the end of a 50-year Republican project. If they can't? The GOP will spend the next 2 years destroying all remaining guardrails. Most important midterms of our lives, no question.

Yep. This is the best way to understand the events of the past couple weeks. They have to dispense with the artifice of principle, because the risks of Dems winning and coming to power bent on accountability are simply too great. www.offmessage.net/p/republican...

There are 6 white supremacists on the Supreme Court.

The Roberts Court, the Trump White House, and the national GOP are acting like this is their one big shot. Either they secure the lasting end of US Constitutional democracy, or they’re in very serious trouble from the backlash. And they’ve already gone so far that there’s no other possibility.

One reason FDR's court-packing plan failed to catch on is that the Supreme Court was perceived by many Americans as apolitical and therefore a victim of unwarranted aggression from the president. This court, however, is nakedly partisan. And any Democrat in power should be saying so early and often

It is not enough that the Supreme Court be expanded. The actions of the conservative justices demand their removal from the Court.

The conservatives on the Supreme Court aren’t even pretending to be anything other than right wing operatives. If we ever overcome their coordinated attack on American democracy they should be treated as illegitimate.

John “Jim Crow” Roberts at it again.

The conservatives on the Supreme Court aren’t being hypocritical or inconsistent — they just don’t GAF about doing anything other than facilitating the GOP gaining and protecting power. They aren’t legal minds — they’re right wing operatives.

The Alabama primary is *one week from tomorrow*. Remember when the Supreme Court said that they couldn't redress a wrong before because it was too close to the election? Just such a sham.

Alabama has already been holding its congressional primaries: the elections are on May 19, mail ballots are being sent back, etc. So that's the 2nd state, alongside Louisiana, that'll be effectively canceling congressional primaries underway to help the GOP.

The rule appears to be that redistricting is always legal when it benefits Republicans and never legal when it benefits Democrats.
