Trump is NOT fighting for YOU. He's fighting for golden ballrooms, personal monuments, forever wars, personal enrichment, tax breaks for the rich and more power. Democrats are fighting for an affordable gas, groceries, housing and healthcare. And for voting rights and women's reproductive rights.
Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.
🚨 Abdul El-Sayed is the Michigan Democratic Senate nominee. Now he’ll have to unify a fractured party to hold the seat for the party. 🔗 politi.co/4xrMXut
Mike Rogers, a former U.S. congressman who pushed false claims of a stolen 2024 election in Michigan and praised Trump’s recent primetime tirade against elections, won Michigan’s Republican primary election for an open U.S. Senate seat Tuesday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Mike Rogers, GOP convert to election denial, wins Michigan GOP Senate primary
If elected, Rogers will flip a key seat and be another Trump ally in the Senate who could help to pass more voter suppression measures, including the stalled SAVE America Act.

A gracious concession: “I want to congratulate Abdul El-Sayed on winning the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. He is a doctor, a community health official, a Rhodes Scholar, and a dedicated Michigander. I am proud to offer my support as he takes on Mike Rogers in the general election…

So now the next step is to find out what Capital One's months-long anti-money laundering review by professionals with decades of law enforcement experience discovered about Trump's 300+ accounts...

This Thursday, SpaceX insiders will be released from their first post-IPO stock lockup and can cash out early. As I've been saying, this has all the hallmarks of a Ponzi scheme.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 20h ago🤯 Rep. Max Miller's interview with Jake Tapper was one of the most self-destructive things I've ever witnessed on cable news. Here's the whole thing:
Max Miller just had a disastrous interview on CNN. I don't know if he was on something, but he did a great impersonation of someone on something.
A vote to confirm Todd Blanche is a vote against justice for Epstein survivors.
Jake Tapper to Rep. Max Miller (R-Ohio): "Hold on— I’m not done with the list of women that have accused you of violence."
Tapper: Senator Moreno said on Sunday that you have admitted privately that you need to get help. Miller: That’s projection. Tapper: Have you ever said that? Miller: No, not to him. Tapper: To anyone? Miller: I think a lot of people within this country see a therapist
Phang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."
Incredible nonsense from John Cornyn. True, the harm to Epstein’s victims can’t be remedied by a “no” vote. But why should Blanche’s corrupt cover-up of the Epstein files—in violation of a Congressional mandate(!)—be rewarded by “yes”? Can’t get any more craven than this.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayCornyn justifies his support for Blanche: "That's one of those things that can't be remedied by a 'no' vote"
Reminder: Todd Blanche has… -Weaponized the DOJ to persecute Trump’s political foes -Purged hundreds of career DOJ lawyers -Botched the release of the Epstein files and ignored victims’ wishes He can’t be trusted and has no business being Attorney General. The Senate must reject him.
The founders are calling. They suggest you read the damn Constitution.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayCornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
Any Senator who votes to confirm Todd Blanche is also siding with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell – and is actively participating in covering-up their numerous and heinous crimes.
Whitehouse: "The last Q I'm left with is what's left of this committee? What's left when we don't demand straight answers? How many times has this DOJ been asked what became of the $50k the FBI reported it handed to Homan? ... our Republican colleagues see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil"
NEWS: Former Senator Jeff Flake (R-AZ) has endorsed Senator Jon Ossoff (D-GA) for re-election Flake: “I’m still a conservative Republican. But character matters. And I want someone in that seat who takes the institution seriously and will protect the institution.”
