Trump has a new scheme to bribe farmers in swing states with welfare checks of taxpayer money because fuel has gone up so much because of his war. But only money for them, not for anyone else in the country. No, we have to keep paying higher prices AND we pay Trump’s voters.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.
Four brothers went to war against Hitler. Three were killed. The fourth survived, and his grandson, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is the president of Ukraine. Zelensky comes from a family that fought tyrants: Trump negotiates with them while demanding concessions from their victims.
The corruption is just staggering. Dozens of dozens of pardons being given out to wealthy criminals paying millions for them. The US government is for sale to the highest bidders & DOJ operates as Trump’s consigliere. Have you had enough of this yet America? I know the world has.
Amy Acton on Vivek Ramaswamy's abhorrent campaign ad: "I won't normalize somebody who has said that my childhood is 'something I'm just complaining about,' who today, just released an ad using my birth mother, who I was removed from at the age of 12 for severe abuse and neglect and sexual abuse."
Vivek Ramaswamy, Ken Paxton, Mike Collins, Roger Marshall, on and on - everywhere you look the most despicable humans financed by a handful of billionaires and elevated by Trump want you to give them even more political power to serve their interests at your expense.
Can’t help but to think this is Grenell striking back.
NEW: A firm started late last year by the family of the Venezuelan banker Julio Herrera Velutini offered to pay Alina Habba $10m/year while she was an administration advisor. Weeks after she started at the company, Trump pardoned Herrera Velutini, who had been charged in a bribery case.
A black female MAGA influencer was kicked out of racist criminal Ken Paxton’s rally after they accused her of being a James Talarico supporter and she’s demanding an apology after stating that she was the only black woman there. Life comes at you fast when you’re a self hating KKK supporter. FAFO.
Despite the Trump administration's best efforts, Alberta votes not to break up Canada
Canada's province of Alberta has rejected a plan to hold a binding independence referendum, results show, a setback for separatists backed by allies of US President Donald Trump u.afp.com/SCah
Thank you to the reporter who mentioned that Qui Tam lawsuits already exist in federal law. Trump is too stupid to know that this already exists.
Q: You're offering 1% to whistleblowers for turning in what you're defining as fraud. The False Claims Act, which has been on the books since 1863, offers between 10 and 25%-- TRUMP: At 1% people will make millions and millions of dollars
He’s too stupid to realize that having “a whole host of doctors sitting there” already IS a big story
Trump brags that when he takes his cognitive tests, he's "got a whole host of doctors sitting there" and says that one warned him that "if you do poorly, it's gonna be a big story"
I'm a progressive, and I approve this message Please-make sure you vote As soon as possible #ElectionHeroesVoteEarly
JD Vance makes a recommendation on who to vote for in the midterms: "Vote for the people who have solutions to lower the cost of gas, don't vote for the people who made the problem to begin with."
Stand with Zelensky and against Putin. Stand with Pope Leo XIV and against ICE. Stand with No Kings and against Meta. Stand with the people and against the oligarchs. Stand with liberal democracy and against Trump.
The right is spending the day complaining that Abdul El-Sayed was "rude" and "a bully" to Tommy the Republican Operative at his town hall, which is hilarious given how they had nothing to say about a woman getting beaten up at a Trump rally as the president cheered on.
Meta’s reason for the shut down was ‘high activity’. I would be willing to bet if it was a MAGA Rally or other GOP event the ‘high activity’ would not have triggered a four hour shut down. I call bullshit! www.commondreams.org/news/no-king...

Questioning the loyalty of Muslims has long been a staple of Christian nationalism/MAGA-especially since Trump called to ban them from the US But El-Sayed reveals the ironic hypocrisy of their xenophobia-reminding Tommy that JFK’s loyalty was questioned because he ran for president as a Christian
This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.
Just a few days ago columnist David Brooks admonished Jon Ossoff for calling his Republican opponent a nazi. And he's got a point. Why bother to call them Nazis? Just wait for them to do it for you.
