Donald Trump Jr became an owner and advisor to a company that wants to ship guns through the mail …but that’s been illegal for nearly a century …so his father just rescinded that rule …to help his company. It’s not a coincidence. It’s corruption.

I am what some might consider an expert on dudes with Nazi tattoos and genuinely my major worry with Platner has always been that he’ll basically be another Fetterman. People fetishize working-class-tough-guy posturing and then are surprised to discover that they are totally horrible people

I'm so tired of this sh*t. Now Trump is using the Social Security Administration, sending essentially a campaign email on the taxpayers' dime. And, the frosting on the cake, is that they're lying.

Calling this a war on diversity is right wing framing. Pete Hegseth is blocking the promotions of qualified Black people and women because he’s a bigot. These aren’t diversity hires who are being promoted to fit some quota. This is racism and sexism at the highest office in the U.S. military.

Trump wants to create a national database of every registered voter in the country. Then, he and the GOP want to decide who gets to stay on it. “It’s a way of essentially taking over the voter registration process,” Marc Elias says, “or, more precisely, taking over the results.”
