Random reminder that banning elected officials from trading stock is a total no brainer. They can use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake — it’s legalized corruption.

Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

The proper headline here is CHARGES DISMISSED DUE TO DOJ MISCONDUCT www.cnn.com/2026/05/21/u...

Sen Murray: How do you justify cutting NIH by billions to send half a trillion more to the Pentagon? Bhattacharya: The budget...uh....is obviously a bigger problem... Sen. Murray: You didn't really answer the question. I know why.

Hey, Mitch. You could have prevented ALL THIS by voting to convict him and bar him from holding office again. Asshole.

Hey Donnie! You will *never* be as loved by the nation as this man. Never.

Release the Epstein Files. Now. Anyone who is against their release is complicit.

MeidasTouch: What do you make of this $1.776 billion fund— Gavin Newsom: It’s a criminal enterprise. It’s not just corruption, it’s not just graft, it’s a full-on criminal enterprise and it needs to be shut down.

NEW: The judge has weighed in on the $1.7 slush fund. I promised an update when she did. Please share widely.

NEW: Epstein survivor Annie Farmer about Todd Blanche testimony about wanting to hear from Epstein survivors: "Blanche’s suggestion that survivors reach out to the Dept of Justice to re-report the crimes committed against them is beyond insulting. Many of us have already done that, repeatedly"

An American president sues/extorts his own government, then settles with his own justice department to funnel money to his criminal allies. He will go down in history as the president who came up with forms of corruption never contemplated before.

An attack on Black America is an attack on all of America. Remember: if they come for us, they’ll come for you next. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/16/u...

Hawaii just enacted a law that effectively neuters Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

For the umpteenth time: The most corrupt president in American history.

Jared Polis is so completely full of shit. His commutation of Tina Peters' sentence has nothing to do with freedom of speech. What a joke. What an insult to the law-abiding citizens of Colorado. What an assault on free and fair elections. An embarrassing profile in cowardice.

Hegseth is asking for a record $1.5 trillion defense budget. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering right now.

UN: Hospitals across Cuba are suspending surgeries, struggling to keep lifesaving equipment running and facing severe medicine shortages as blackouts and fuel shortages push the country’s healthcare system deeper into crisis, senior UN officials warned on Friday.

I wish someone would corner these chuds on "only when the sun shines or the wind blows." It's spectacularly embarrassing that the ENERGY secretary doesn't know how storage batteries work.

The DOJ is refusing to release the Epstein files while in real time Fuck Face is getting away with verbally abusing women on live TV. #Epstein

Awesome show last night. I'll absolutely miss Colbert. 💕💕💕

Sen. Warnock is right: Republicans found $200 billion for a war in Iran overnight. But for 25 million uninsured Americans? Nothing. No urgency. No bill. No vote. They fund what they value. And they just told you exactly what that is. #HealthcareNotWarfare #USDemocracy

Perfect campaign ad for the upcoming Midterms. 👌

The only marches that matter are marches to the polls. I have no time at this point, online or in real life, for people who are not going to vote.

Priorities dontcha know

Residents in Fayette County, Georgia noticed their water pressure was unusually low. Turns out that a data center 20 miles away had been drawing 30 million gallons of water in secret through connections the county didn't know existed. Is it any wonder why so many are opposed to data centers?

This 👇 - They have failed both the Judicial Oath and the Constitutional Oath. They are not impartial, neutral arbiters of the law and don't even try to hide that they are influenced by their own personal political preferences.

73% of mothers with kids under 18 are in the workforce. More than flowers or brunch, working moms need: -Paid family leave -Equal pay -Universal childcare -Universal healthcare (But get your mom flowers, too)

I don't know who needs to hear this, but an economy controlled by a handful of oligarchs isn't a "free market."

They’re against diversity. And they want Black people grouped together in one part of town, until it comes to our voting power. We see you.

Our mental health is important and needs to be taken seriously. People need depression meds to get thru their day & is proven to be a life saver. Now RFK jr. wants to ban anti depression meds b/c they are over prescribed? Evidence? This would be dangerous. Meds should be left to the professionals!

The Trump administration just handed 1.4 million acres of your public lands to the state of Alaska and they didn’t even try to hide why. The Dalton Utility Corridor has been managed by the Bureau of Land Management since the 1970s, originally established as a protected

WALTER BAILEY: “Dr. King took a bullet in the neck. They were shot. Killed. Murdered. Advancing voting rights… it’s an insult to their legacy. To their deaths.” @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn SenJohnson BrentTaylorTN #Memphis

James Comey has been keeping busy waiting for his upcoming trial.

This is an excellent question.

Virginia Supreme Court considers whether to block voter-approved US House map favoring Democrats share.google/VC56Fvf7byCn...

ABSOLUTELY.

SEN. OLIVER: “@GovBillLee called a special session next week to cheat. Let’s be real clear. Republicans in Tennessee are doing the bidding of that man in the White House because he wants to hold on to power. MEMPHIS is 1 of the Blackest cities… they’re about to take their seat.”

CA Peeps: We must stop the voter suppression initiative to change the CA state constitution on the November ballot! This is essentially the SAVE ACT for CA that has already been passed in red states across the country, and it's receiving no attention! Please share! calmatters.org/politics/202...

Can someone let the AP know that violating court orders is not a sign of "executive power. " It is a sign of contempt, lawlessness and authoritarianism.

The Fifth Circuit just told millions of women that three judges know better than the FDA, their doctors, and 25 years of evidence. They don't. This restriction on medication abortion is a nationwide abortion restriction, full stop. I have no intention of letting this stand.

He has to go. It’s not just that he’s a religious zealot. It should be apparent by now that he is deeply unwell. Your faith does not give you a pass on basic mental soundness.
