Let's be clear, Trump is in Las Vegas to champion his billionaire friends he gave the biggest tax break in history to... not the working families who are struggling in the economy have wrecked. The average Nevada family now pays $2,900 more on necessities since Trump took office.
Donald Trump dodged the draft but is happy to post photos of himself in uniform while he sends our kids to die in his war.
When Whitehouse is on, he's on. This is a flamethrower.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayWhitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "
Most of the corruption perpetrated by the Trump admin would not be possible without the complicit enabling of the Republican majorities in the House and Senate. The only way to put any check and balance on this out of control regime is to vote them out in November.
What will the media companies who are publishing stories that Blanche agreed to a “deal” with Cornyn & Tillis to kill the slush fund write when people start getting paid with our tax dollars & this whole thing is revealed as a sham? Since they aren’t writing how it’s a sham now.
Trump is refusing 220 million dollars in disaster relief to Democrat led states. That alone should be a bipartisan impeachable offense. It should also be something that incites open revolt.
That $100,000 is also misleading. That's the monthly fee. If they get 1,000 investors to bite, that's $100 million PER MONTH that Trump will be raking in.
“May” is doing a whole lotta work here. And we can lose the “experts say…”
NPR@npr.org · 4d agoThe president's media company is offering investors early access to his Truth Social feed for up to $100,000 a month. Experts say the service may violate insider trading laws.
There was a time that Republicans were dominant in California politics. It was their immigration policy and rhetoric that undid them then, too.
Greg Sargent@gregsargent.bsky.social · 4d agoRemarkable: Dems have now pulled even with the GOP *on immigration* in two new national polls. A third finds Trump 22 points underwater on the the issue, and *32 points* underwater among independents. Trump has absolutely destroyed the GOP advantage on immigration. newrepublic.com/article/2138...
Again, it’s also crucially important to note that inflation was basically over & the economy was surging in 2024, when 55% of people thought things were getting worse. They’re <actually> getting worse now. bsky.app/profile/mcop...
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoCNN: 65% of Americans say Trump's policies have worsened economic conditions, that's 10% more than in the finals months of the Biden administration. What do you say to that person who's part of that 65%? KEVIN HASSETT: I just don't believe a poll like that
The Republican Party is the gravest threat to the United States since the Confederacy. It must be destroyed.
Friendly reminder that these things aren't impacted by closing the Strait of Hormuz so maybe, just maybe, we should implement them to avoid being impacted by future conflicts: -Solar panels -Wind turbines -Battery storage -Electric vehicles -Bicycles -Natural fertilizers -Electric heat pumps
The president is out of control but Republicans aren’t willing to admit it. They’d rather cling on to Trump than act in America’s interests. Listen to LP Sr Advisor Stuart Stevens on MSNOW:
It's astonishing that at this time in American history it is conceivable that the U.S. Supreme Court might help a convicted felon steal an election.
He stood up there, when he finally woke up, and he insulted your colleagues and friends like Kaitlin Collins and others. They’re the ones you should be loyal to, and you just sat there and according to reports, looked uncomfortable and studied your phones. luciantruscott.substack.com/p/bended-kne...
Bended knees on the Potomac: White House Correspondents Dinner lives up to its reputation
Why didn’t you stand up, one by one, and walk out during Trump’s obscene tsunami of lies that he called a speech? White House correspondents, or D.C.

He cares so much that in 2014 CNN obtained documents showing Trump shirts were made in a Honduran factory, where workers earned about $1.30 an hour. The factory’s contract reportedly ended in 2015, because even that wage was too high. Between he and Ivanka one could write a book on forced labor.
Andy Beshear should say he spoke to Mitch for 20 minutes and Mitch told him to appoint someone else. Prove him wrong, Mitch. Prove him wrong.
When Democrats take power, they must immediately cancel all of Elon Musk’s government welfare checks. Like and repost if you want this to happen.
BREAKING: Justice Department agrees to withdraw subpoenas issued to New York Times reporters in leak investigation related to new Air Force One jet. Withdrawal of subpoenas follows hearing before NY federal judge, who indicated he was inclined to quash the subpoenas.
Mark Carney on Trump's new tariffs against Canada: "We're ready ... we're a reliable partner in a world that's anything but. So we're diversifying our partnerships abroad."
Dearest @govandybeshear.bsky.social, You’re getting dog walked by a dead man. Don’t be Merrick Garland. Call for the Special Election already. Let Mitch prove he’s alive. He can’t. Because he’s fucking dead. Love, God
If you start your article or newscast with an unqualified “President Trump says…” what are you even doing?
NBC News@nbcnews.com · 2w agoNEW: President Trump says that the nuclear deal between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia requires the kingdom to normalize relations with Israel, a significant condition not previously mentioned when the deal was announced.
Under Trump: -Household electricity costs are up 18% -Ground beef prices are up 22% -Gas prices are up 40% -ACA out-of-pocket premiums are up 58% -Inflation is at a three-year high "New Golden Age" for who?
