There’s no Trump without an entire Republican Party on their knees and silent to the ongoing cruelty, hate, abuse, lies and lawlessness. They have abandoned the Constitution and basic human decency—for power. We will never forget these traitors who support despotism.

'Very concerned': Oklahoma lawmakers allow new controversial social studies standards to take effect, which call for students to investigate the results of the 2020 election and claims COVID-19 began in a Chinese lab. #oklaed #okleg #oklahoma okcfox.com/news/local/s...

A huge new NIH-funded clinical trial of 20,000 girls has shown that a single dose of HPV vaccine yields the same response as two doses after 4.5 years. This is critical to public health efforts to save lives with this vaccine. Yes. We still have to battle RFK Jr. to ensure access to HPV vaccine.

We've learned the Trump Administration has ILLEGALLY withheld over $430B in funds approved by Congress — gutting vital services including child care, disaster relief and more. The courts must continue to hold this lawless president accountable, even if spineless congressional Republicans won't.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but EVERY FUCKING RETAILER needs to show the tariffs next to the price -- not just Amazon. Walmart, Target, ALL OF THEM. It's a fucking tax, why shouldn't we see it? I want to know exactly how much trump's tariffs are jacking my prices up. DON'T YOU?

Instead of TARIFFS, call them IMPORT TAXES. Instead of DEPORTING, call it KIDNAPPING. Instead of COMBATING ANTISEMITISM call it USING JEWS TO DO UN-AMERICAN AND FASCIST SHIT. Call it what it is.

Donald Trump has spent 25% of his first 100 days golfing at his resorts — and one day filming a Tesla commercial.

The Milwaukee schools where they found lead- some kids with detectable levels- are shut down and they’re getting no government help because all the experts in that department were fired by Trump - DOGE regime.

Bezos caved faster than it took me to type that.

The Trump Administration admitted in court that it NEVER should've abducted Kilmar, yet it continues to defy a court order to facilitate his return. Trump claims there's nothing he can do. But as I wrote to him today, the VP of El Salvador told me explicitly — the ball is in Trump's court:

Judge restricts Border Patrol in California: ‘You just can’t walk up to people with brown skin’ calmatters.org/justice/2025...

What a whiny little bitch.

Speaking to NPR in his first media interview since his detention, lawful permanent U.S. resident Mohsen Mahdawi finds peace in meditation and hopes "America will fulfill its promise."

‘Birds of a feather’ RAPE children together…👇 Remember that.

Robert Morris, the Dallas-area megachurch pastor who resigned last year amid sexual abuse allegations, has been indicted in Oklahoma for *child* sex crimes that date back to the 1980s.

Reporter: “Congressman, would you apologize to your constituents for breaking your promise to ban congressional stock trading?” Rep. Robert Bresnahan: 🦗🦗🦗

NEW: The first Trump-branded real estate project in Qatar will reportedly be announced tomorrow. One of the Trump Organization’s business partners in the deal is Qatari Diar, a real estate company owned by the Qatar Investment Authority, Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund.

Trump inherited nearly a billion dollars and lost a lot more than that. He's never had a "job," or experienced actual hardship. Never had to buy his own groceries, buy a car and drive it himself, never had to send his kids to public schools. He has no idea what financial hardship feels like.

🔥WATCH: “Would you mind telling your colleagues in Washington that when they’re burning down this house there are people still inside?” Powerful moment at an @gallego.senate.gov town hall in Arizona, as Republicans cruelly move to slash Medicaid (while cutting taxes for the rich)

Trump begins his rally in Michigan by lying that he won the state three times (he in fact lost in 2020)

Gavin Kliger, a 25-year-old DOGE aide who is helping the Trump administration carry out the drastic downsizing of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, owns stock in companies that could benefit from the agency’s dismantling.

Trump: "There's my friend -- Blacks for Trump. I like that guy. He follows me ... everybody thinks I pay you a fortune. I don't even know who the hell he is."

Yes, this is a real tweet.

"He's going around with AOC plus 3" -- an underrated thing about Trump's rally speeches is that he literally has not updated his material since 2018

there is a decent chance i never spend a single dime at target again in my life www.startribune.com/target-gave-...

Trump’s strategy is not mere politics — it’s a calculated campaign of vengeance, leveraging state power to instill fear, crush dissent, and signal that loyalty to him outweighs allegiance to the law or democratic norms. This is how democracies corrode from within.

Trump: "I'd like to be Pope. That would be my number one choice."

Two former Wells Fargo executives were fined $8.5M by the Biden administration for covering up the bank's infamous fake account scandal. Trump just slashed those fines to a paltry $150,000 after Wells Fargo gave $1M to his inauguration. See how this works?

Casar: If anyone ever doubted that Trump, Musk, Bezos, and the billionaires are all on one team, just look at what happened at Amazon today. Bezos immediately caved and walked back a plan to tell Americans how much Trump’s tariffs are costing them. Bezos who spent 40 million on Melania’s documentary

New: Trump says just now that he spoke with Jeff Bezos over Amazon's move to start showing the cost of Trump’s tariffs next to each product and that Bezos "solved the problem very quickly, he did the right thing"

Mom & minor daughters are citizens who just moved from MD to Oklahoma. This statement from the Mom should be read, absorbed & circulated. ICE cannot be allowed to terrorize vulnerable families. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @ericswalwell.bsky.social kfor.com/news/local/w...

❌ NO: This is not an authentic image of Judge Hannah Dugan’s mug shot. It's AI-generated. Dugan was arrested by the FBI on April 25 for allegedly helping an undocumented immigrant evade ICE agents. ⚠️ Photorealistic images can be quickly manufactured with #AI tools. 🔗 go.newslit.org/AIMugShot

What are they afraid of?

Secretary Hegseth’s phone number was found all over the internet. Hackers could have surveilled his phone and gotten sensitive information. It’s time for him to resign. Hope his makeup studio is going well though.

Moses' national security job offer was rescinded when Elon Musk’s DOGE team came in and haphazardly cut positions. What's The Real Cost of Donald Trump and Elon Musk's cuts? Families losing their livelihoods. #TheRealCost

“We’re citizens. That’s what I kept saying. We’re citizens. I kept telling them we weren’t criminals. They were treating us like criminals. We were here by ourselves. We didn’t do anything.” This is an incredible story from local TV news reporter Spencer Humphrey. Watch: kfor.com/video/federa...

Tesla’s Chairwoman, Robyn Denholm, has filed to sell another $30 million in Tesla stock. She appears to be completely liquidating her stake in the company she chairs. Tesla executives and board members have exclusively exercised stock options and sold them right away. electrek.co/2025/04/29/t...

CNN on the Bezos/Amazon cave… disgraceful…

UPDATE: Earlier reports that Jeff Bezos and Amazon were acting on principle were incorrect.

We’re still thinking about how twisted this is…

🚨 WHITE HOUSE: AMAZON SHOWING TARIFFS ON EACH PRODUCT IS A HOSTILE AND POLITICAL ACT

THIS 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 My Man Jalen Hurts will not be visiting the White House when the Super Bowl champions come later this afternoon. Hurts and other players who can’t attend had “scheduling conflicts.” Those same “scheduling conflicts” Tom Brady had when President Obama was in office.

I don’t know about you, but I love it! Well said👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

WASHINGTON (AP) - US Consumer confidence slides for the 5th straight month to levels not seen since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

TELSEY begins tracking price increases over the past week. Some highlights: * Abercrombie jeans: up 33% * Amazon Echo: up 38.5% * Target / Barbie doll: up 42.9%

1. Clay Jackson, a Texas lawyer, provided basic legal advice to an immigrant family fearing deportation Then, two officers visited him at his home, accusing him of "obstructing an ongoing immigration investigation" Then, after speaking publicly, he was fired from his job at a Fortune 500 company
