"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little." -FDR, 1937

Agreed!

BREAKING: Texas passed a bill requiring public schools to display the Ten Commandments in every classroom. We will be suing.

This hits hard.

Art of the deal.

Yup

Biggest. Crowd. Ever.

Art of the Deal

NEWS: U.S. and China agree to a 90-day pause on new tariffs after shipping to U.S. ports plummeted. Tariffs on Chinese imports will be cut from 145% to 30%. Tariffs on U.S. imports will be cut from 125% to 10%. If tariffs should result in massive job growth and make the U.S. rich, why lower them?

ART OF THE FOLD........

I see lots of fellow leftists & pro-Palestine ppl celebrating at the seeming ‘rupture’ between Netanyahu & Trump. Folks, it’s Trump. Don’t pay attention to what he says; pay attention to what he does - & what Israel does with his support. Right now, it’s the starving of Gaza.

When you lose Laura Loomer...

Aaaand there it is.

An American President is going to turn a foreign luxury plane from Qatar into Air Force One. And then he’s going to keep the $400 million gift after he leaves office. It’s a disgrace to our country and a potential national security risk. Our Oversight Committee must investigate.

The only thing China had to do this entire time was wait until the deranged criminal eventually caved on his own trade war tariffs and he proved them right. Great businessman my ass.

Remember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal. Then she fired that lawyer.

I'm not a lawyer, nor do I work for the New York Times, but I'm pretty sure corruption does not require an explicit quid pro quo.

The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the *appearance* of corruption promotes corruption.

It’s the grift that keeps on grifting.

So many layers of corruption.

The GOP unveiled a plan to slash $880 BILLION from Apple Health (Medicaid), putting healthcare for millions of Washingtonians at risk. These cuts will leave families without coverage, especially in rural areas. NO ONE voted for this!

Buttigieg: Like I love A1 steak sauce, but A1 steak sauce is not one of the most important things confronting humanity right now. Artificial intelligence is. And somebody who doesn't understand that probably should not be leading an important federal agency.

I’ve watched too many of these raids to count. This one is one of the most infuriating in recent memory. Appropriate that we learn about it on the same day SCOTUS hears oral arguments for a case that may remove the last remaining way to hold federal agents accountable for this kind of terror.

Decency has never been missed so much.

Dear god let this man cook.

It looks like ICE is becoming Trump’s Gestapo. Nobody is safe. We must take the offensive. It will soon be too late. Even Trump-appointed judges are voicing alarm. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/25/u...

Down with Sling! They have a commercial where people throw newspapers at their carrier, knocking him off of his bike. I find that violence (against journalism) very offensive!
