When he's gone, what I'll remember most is those who encouraged, supported, and enabled him. They will forever reek of his stench. I'm going to remember the cowardice of people who went along.

In what world did Trump think it was a good idea to bring the sex trafficing Tate brothers into America? So we are importing criminals now? Must be getting really weird over on truth social

So Trumpers, three options: He's senile. He's a liar. Or both.

Fearing repercussions from your government. Fearing the sudden loss of healthcare for your whole family. Fearing that what the government intends for you is mere sadism—trauma without purpose or justification. This is what evil men do when we let them spend a lifetime doing evil without consequence.

CALL TO ACTION: Call your representatives at (202) 224-3121 and ask what criteria they plan to use when “vetting” their constituents.

Ben Meiselas: This is a time for fearless coverage. There's so much to report about every single day—what's going on in the White House every single day.. pushing back on that every day and saying it in a way that doesn't mince words. And I think that's what's connecting with our audience.

My god. Can Mexico provide our flu shots? Canada? Maybe our state governments?

I mean, Trump has always been diametrically opposed to every populist principle he pretends to support, but I guess sometimes it takes releasing an accused rapist and human trafficker from custody for the phoniness to really sink in.

Judge orders discovery, allowing interrogations, depositions, information requests to develop. This is the first time a court orders this legal action in a case against the so-called DOGE. It is a critical next step to stop DOGE’s unlawful access to Americans’ sensitive data. 1/2

The economic black out is tomorrow. I'm participating.

The wealthy commit fraud WAY MORE than the rest of us do. They also serve WAY LESS time in prison.

Voted for Trump, now have buyer’s remorse? The Trump philosophy seems to be his version of FAFO. Don’t buy anything on the 28th unless you absolutely have to. #Resist

I don’t want to hear from any Republican about the debt or deficits who supports a budget that is replying on hundreds of billions in offsets from a scam Trump Gold Card idea he just came up with on Tuesday. You are lying to the American people, and you know you are lying.

You've heard of girl math, but have you heard of billionaire math? Trump's temporary tax handouts for the rich are expiring this year, and Republicans want working Americans to foot the bill. They're claiming it'll cost you nothing, but in reality, these tax handouts cost trillions.

GOP reps love your vote, but not your voice. They’re dodging town halls faster than Trump dodged the draft. Demand answers! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/run-for-of...

"daddy, what did you do in the war" son, i archived all 6,793 videos from the Kennedy Center before they disappeared from the internet we all did our part

Trump freed 1,500 criminals on his first day in office. Now he just helped Andrew Tate, who is charged with rape and human trafficking. What happened to “law and order”?

I hope you’ll read this piece I wrote about the insanity of Elon Musk & Utah Sen. Mike Lee attacking federal judges, yet another attack on democracy joycevance.substack.com/p/when-they-...

It took ONE FUCKING MONTH for trump to turn America into a garbage, shithole country. And he's getting worse daily.

The "free speechers" are now afraid of free speech.

This is a travesty. They’re going to conjure up phony numbers to try and hide the fact that they are exploding the deficit with massive corporate tax cuts and tax cuts for the top earners. Tariff projections and Trump Gold Cards pay for everything! A complete fraud.

Just an FYI: Medicaid fraud is rarely perpetrated by beneficiaries. The fraudsters are almost always the doctors and CEO's that administer Medicaid. For example: when a doctor charges the government $600 for an $8 breast pump and pockets the cash and the third party administrator takes a cut.

We need to tax them until they bleed

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

Yes, raping a 15-year-old *is* bad but, on the other hand, he closes his business on Sundays to prove how much holier he is than you, so it all evens out. #ThePublicSanctimonyOfPrivatelyAwfulPeople

Let’s see all those hands raised, high! 🤚 Support. Our. Veterans. Always. ✨

As usual, Donnie’s brain is playing shorthanded.

Ruhle: Do you consider yourselves left-wing media? Jordy Meiselas: We cast a big umbrella here, and more so than anything, I consider ourselves unapologetically pro-democracy. If you're pro-Constitution, pro-upholding norms, and pro-democracy, there's a spot for you on our roster.

Every opinion piece in the Washington Post must now follow Bezos' new rightwing guidelines. Writers can say that they would have written the same thing anyway, but the fact remains: Their piece was only published because it met his new rightwing guidelines. Support independent, pro-democracy media.

Politicians who truly believe they are doing things to help their constituents relish going to townhalls to bask in gratitude, not cower in corridors to evade backlash.

“Especially in light of the billionaire’s other blatant efforts to cozy up to Donald Trump, Bezos’s move is more than a gut punch; it’s more like a death knell for the once-great news organization he bought in 2013.”

Donald Trump and Elon Musk can afford to blithely dismantle the healthcare of America's veterans at the VA. As two rich draft-dodgers, they never need worry about getting help with treatment for military injuries.

Elon Musk: "We will make mistakes. We won't be perfect ... so for example, with USAID, one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was ebola prevention."

"Party leaders suggest that if lawmakers feel the need to hold such events, they do tele-town halls or at least vet attendees to avoid scenes that become viral clips, according to GOP sources." They made it clear, they don't care what you think. Get louder: 202-224-3121

Complete batshit lunacy on the president's Truth Social account. Yes, he really posted this.
