Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.” In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

In the last 48 hours as you’ve watched the way that Donald Trump has spoken to women on camera for the world to see publicly, you can only imagine the way that he spoke to the victims behind closed doors

In case you'd been wondering why Trump rolls over for Putin at every turn:

We need to tax the rich! They’ve rigged the system for too long. Repost if you agree.

While Americans go hungry, President Donald Trump was partying it up. The president spent Friday night hosting a Great Gatsby–themed Halloween celebration at Mar-a-Lago, just hours before tens of millions of low-income Americans were set to lose access to food stamps.

The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americans” face never ceases to stun me. He’s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefits… …while he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

The American people are begging us to do something about the skyrocketing cost of living. They are crying out for help. But Trump can't hear them over the sound of the bulldozers demolishing the East Wing of the White House to build his brand-new ballroom.

Do not spread his ugliness. This is our days, not his.

Video shows an agent turn a federal vehicle left into Martinez’s vehicle, after which an agent says, “Do something bitch.” The agent then exits the vehicle and shoots at Martinez. chicago.suntimes.com/news/2025/10...

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Here’s what we’re fighting for: Americans could see their premiums raised by an average of 114 PERCENT if Congress doesn’t extend Affordable Care Act tax credits. A 60-year-old couple making $85,000 will see their health care costs increase by $22,600! Totally unacceptable.

EMERGENCY MEDICAID REIMBURSES HOSPITALS FOR CARE TO UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS BECAUSE BY LAW HOSPITALS CANNOT TURN AWAY ANYONE IN AN EMERGENCY. RONALD REGAN SIGNED THIS INTO LAW.

Trump to top military officials: "I told Pete, we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military. National Guard, but our military. Because we're going into Chicago very soon. That's a big city with an incompetent governor. Stupid governor."

Trump just called American citizens “the enemy within,” encouraging the men and women of the armed forces to use OUR cities as military training grounds. It’s time to wake up, put aside our differences, and create a united front to oppose Trump’s unconstitutional and illegal abuse of power.

Former FBI Director James Comey reacts to indictment by the Trump administration: “We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn’t either.”

Listen to Trump’s own words regarding who is responsible for a government shutdown: “The president is the leader, and he’s got to get everybody in a room and he’s got to lead.”

KIMMEL: “He’s gunning for our journalists too — they want to pick and choose what the news is… it’s so important to have a free press, and it’s nuts we aren’t paying more attention to it.”

All those, past and present, who raised their hands to protect and defend the Constitution should speak up and make a stand against the erosion of our freedom of speech and our democracy.

One thing about rights is that they only exist if you fight for them. If you just capitulate to authoritarian demands they are worthless.

“There are those who would try to refuse the worker any effective power to bargain collectively, to earn a decent livelihood and to acquire security. It is those shortsighted ones who threaten this country with class dissension…” — Franklin Roosevelt, Sep. 6, 1936 www.thebulwark.com/p/labor-day-...

A former top official at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) dropped a bombshell in a Thursday night interview with CNN amid shakeups at the agency that include the ousting of Trump’s newly appointed director.

To Donald Trump and his administration: If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me — not time or political circumstance — from making sure you face justice under our constitutional rule of law.

Aside from anything else, it is a national emergency that the president of the United States has lost his mind.

Jesus Christ, this feels like petty high school shit, only it’s actual rights & freedom being denied by stupid Nazi hall monitors... This "asking permission" shit is bullshit. Force their hand. Make them arrest you. The news is barely covering this because Democrats are just taking it.

Former PM of Australia 🇦🇺: “I’ve been with Trump and Putin. Trump is in awe of Putin… it’s like the 12 Year-old boy that goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team. ‘My hero’.”

The upward redistribution of wealth over the past 50 years has shifted $80 trillion from the bottom 90% of Americans to the top 1%.  That’s $80 trillion that would have gone into the paychecks of the working class. The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

Dear Donald:

On November 4th in California, you will have the power to stand up to Donald Trump. You will have the power to stand up for people. We're going to give the people of this state the power to stand up for democracy.

The Trump administration is coming after your Social Security. Democrats will protect the benefits you’ve earned.

But I thought hacking into our systems was a hoax.

They’re trying to jail me to silence anyone who has the courage to fight back. We will not back down. We will not be intimidated. We will fight these corrupt thugs with everything we’ve got.

You know how people called women hysterical for predicting the right wing would take down Roe v. Wade (which they've done) and then attack access to birth control (which they're doing)? Hear me when I say that women's very right to vote is next. www.npr.org/2025/08/09/n...

Instead of taking over the DC Metropolitan Police at a time when crime in the capital is declining and is lower than it was during Trump's first term, wouldn't it just be easier to release the Epstein files?

The second Trump administration has removed more climate and environmental data from websites in the first 100 days than the first administration, according to a new report.

One in five single-family homes is now owned by investors—pricing out first-time buyers and rigging the market. Housing shouldn’t be hoarded for profit. I’m fighting to rein in investors and make homeownership a reality for working families again.

If voting wasn’t powerful, extremist lawmakers wouldn’t be trying so hard to keep us from doing it. We won’t back down from fighting for our right to vote.

The Trump regime has removed sections 9 and 10 of the constitution from its website, which include Habeas Corpus, congressional appropriations, and other states rifhts constitution.congress.gov/constitution/

Woody Allen said dinners at Jeffrey Epstein’s place reminded him of Dracula’s castle, “where Lugosi has three young female vampires who service the place.” Also in this NYT story (w/ gift link): Epstein had a first edition of “Lolita.” Meanwhile, Trump is covering up his ties w/ the child molester.
