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...
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · yesterdayPhang: "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..."
It was over for Max Miller politically when he said his wife couldn’t have been abused because she offered to make him dinner 6 days later. He may not have known it when he said it, but that was the end. You have to be a sick bastard to come up with that as your defense.
We disgrace ourselves as a nation each and every day Donald Trump remains in office. The drafters of the United States Constitution provided a remedy for a criminally insane president like the one we have—impeachment and removal ...
Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

We’ve been saying this for a while now many of the people being targeted are just fishermen. Evidence now supports that the United States has killed individuals who were not involved in drug trafficking during its “counternarcotics interdiction operations” in the Caribbean and Pacific.

"Morning Joe" should NEVER give a nut job like Rand Paul a platform and unlimited time to spread lies and conspiracy theories. Sen Paul accused Dr. Fauci of destroying records and manipulating an animal virus to make it 50 times more potent in humans. Paul's rhetoric is misleading and dangerous.
Every now and then someone takes a run at me along the lines of "I don't understand why you, a scifi writer, don't appreciate 'AI'," and I'm all, motherfucker, it's *because* I'm a science fiction writer I have the positions I have, how many times do we have to fucking yell "torment nexus," my dude
“You’re a huge fan of Lord of the Rings, how come you don’t like Palantir?” “You’re a huge fan of 1984, how come you don’t like the surveillance state?” “You’re a huge fan of Fahrenheit 451, how come you don’t like ritual book burnings?”

We must pay attention to the details of the deconstruction of justice & democracy & educate others. Trump fired over 100 immigration judges. That might sound mundane. But there's a 4 million case backlog & 12 immigration courts lost 1/2 their immigration judges & 2 lost all full-time judges!🧵
WaPo alone found 50 cops who misused Flock cameras and other license-plate readers for personal purposes, namely to spy on girlfriends or ex-wives. They interviewed ~seven victims w/ stories of abuse that are really awful. One police chief "watched every single move" his ex made.

We need to conserve the river, protect water levels, and boost funding for projects that reduce our reliance on it. I’ll keep fighting to deliver on all that and more, because Arizona can't be forced to carry this alone.
Happy Birthday to the AMAZING Katie Phang!! Every single day, we’re in awe of your brilliance, integrity, and relentless fight for the truth. Here’s to another year of making a difference. We’re so grateful for you.
I've been trying to explain Americans for a long time. (I've lived overseas) We have such big dreams! But we lost the plot between our dreams and reality. Now we live in our dreams, afraid of a scary world. (Media addiction) Or worse, we run from our nightmares -- created by fascist manipulation.
Valid crash out. Also, why didn't we do better with the student loans for the people who fought COVID?

Whether it’s Medicare, Medicaid or, in this case, the AHRQ, there should be no doubt in anyone’s mind that #RepublicansCutHealthcare‼️ flip.it/l.HdbV
Trump administration has quietly throttled an agency devoted to the safety of American healthcare
Congress appropriated $345 million for the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality for the 2026 fiscal year, but the agency has spent less than $15 million on grants.

What is happening inside the military with promotions and firings: We have a ton of people who are being removed from promotion lists. They’re being recommended by those in uniform, and they are being stripped out by Pete Hegseth.
