Wes Moore very excited about the amount of jobs that fascist weapons manufacturer Anduril will bring to Maryland this is noted shitstain Palmer Luckey's company and fuck Wes Moore for doing anything but other than trying to block this. He actively encouraged it!

More corruption. During her time as DHS Secretary, Kristi Noem gave over $900 MILLION in contracts to companies led by one of her political donors. This included the purchase of multiple luxury jets well above market value.   Every penny of their corruption must be investigated.

Kristi Noem’s Agency Gave Her Donor a Lucrative Contract Just Before She Left

The Homeland Security Department signed a multi-million dollar agreement to buy five aircraft from a company owned by a political contributor of the secretary on her last day, documents show.

Katie Phang: "[Todd Blanche] says the Privacy Act has to be read in conjunction with the Epstein Files Transparency Act and that it's totally proper for him to hide and obfuscate and protect the identities of enablers, rapists, traffickers of children. He thinks that's fine."

Katie Phang: "Todd Blanche wants to continue to hide the Epstein files from the American people. He wants to allow the existing redactions and withholdings to stand as a matter of law. He's saying what he has done is legally sufficient. And I am here to say, hell no, it is not."

Eight years ago today, Susan Collins voted to confirm Brett Kavanaugh. He went on to help overturn Roe v. Wade. She still says she doesn’t regret her vote. Give her something to regret on November 3. Vote her out.

Justice Alito said he lost friends after he and his colleagues overturned Roe v Wade. Does he think about the women who have lost their lives because of his decision?

Shorter Alito: You know that bullshit philosophy called originalism that we invented out of thin air to justify ruling in favor of our preferred conservative outcomes? Well it comes in MANY different flavors. And they're all the same bullshit. www.wsj.com/opinion/just...

As I said, if any subordinate of Trump's should be impeached, my nomination is for Russell Vought to be our first target. The power of directing the government to spend money on particular items goes all the way back to the Magna Carta of 1215. Can't have a truly... www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

White House takes radical new steps to wrest the power of the purse from Congress

As one observer put it, Team Trump’s efforts to control federal spending “subvert the basic structure of the American system.”

MAGA GOP, Russel Vought and Co, Stephen Miller, don’t give a damn that Trump will bite the dust sooner rather than later, just as long as they keep their $ and Power. The rails were never something they gave a flip about.

It's strange that we had to get to nuking American cities, before Americans would wake up and realize that Trump is an extremely mentally ill, severely demented, amoral, lying POS. Nukes, for God's sakes.

Russia says there was no lab accident and the situation is stable. Maybe. But when someone working at a plague research facility suddenly dies from mysterious pneumonia, possibly plague, and hospitals start locking down, “trust us, bro” isn’t going to cut it.
