Washington is pretending to look busy with phony investigations—but don't let them distract you from the cover-up. The Epstein files remain hidden, and Pam Bondi still hasn’t appeared for questioning. No hearings. No deposition date. No answers.

A mass shooting that took the lives of eight children should stop this country in its tracks. Instead, the Shreveport tragedy disappeared from the headlines in a day. We cannot allow this level of violence to fade into background noise. Ending America’s gun‑violence epidemic is a moral oblligation.

Trump described to me on Air Force One on January 10, 2019 a way to casually crucify migrants on the border wall. He’s not Christian. He’s inhuman. His threat today on Easter to bomb Iranian civilians is consistent with his character.

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025. The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets — more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined. Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

Trump has now conducted 42 boat strikes, killing nearly 160 people. Remember: no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're simply taking Trump's word for it. He’s unilaterally acting as judge, jury, and executioner. This is a danger to us all.
