Jong-Fast: This would be the largest cut to food assistance in US history—and it will result in hungry kids. It’s also important to mention that this bill grows the deficit. I don’t know how it manages to do the two things you absolutely don’t want—starve children and grow the deficit—but it does.

For the second night in a row, russia launched a massive drone barrage at Ukraine - and missiles are on the way, with bombers airborne and ships seaborne. For the first time ever, I am spending the night at a metro station. What a damn good 'peace deal'. Many thanks.

House Republicans snuck a massive policy change into their tax bill that could upend the civil service: It would make new federal employees "at will" unless they agree to an effective 5% pay cut. One union official told me it amounts to "criminal extortion." www.huffpost.com/entry/house-...

This May 22 dinner is a high crime and misdemeanor. A president of the United States can’t use the office to enrich himself in this way, from potentially anonymous donors for whom he might do favors. This is as textbook as corruption gets.

I wonder how many Americans realize that Bribery is one of just two impeachable offenses specifically enumerated in the United States Constitution and the case that Donald Trump has now committed that crime dozens of times in his second term is a legal slam dunk. So shall we get started?

When Trump’s sister got exposed for tax fraud during his first term she was allowed to quietly retire from the bench, no perp walks for that judge. Of course she’d always helped Donald cover up his crimes. So when Kash Patel says ‘no one is above the law’ he doesn’t mean Trumps.

He just plays President—does a daily Oval Office show, gets some attention, signs fancy papers—and they only tell him what they need him to believe, like, “The Supreme Court backed me 9-0.” And he’s fine with it! He treats not knowing about world events like they’re an episode of CSI he missed.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

UPDATE: El Salvador’s brutal far-right dictator, Trump and Musk friend Nayib Bukele, has confirmed that he will never return any person sent to him from America. And Trump has confirmed he wants American citizens sent to El Salvador to die in a foreign gulag. This is a five-alarm fire for democracy.
