Corrupt judges let a criminal get away with treason and run for president. Propagandists masquerading as journalists lied to enough people that the criminal won. Then the criminal sold a half share in the presidency to the world's richest man, whom no one voted for. That's what happened, folks.

Uh guys? NBC just found out a DHS staffer accidentally added a journalist to an email thread about an ICE raid in Denver. Yeah, a completely separate incident. THAT staffer is being punished — so why aren’t Hegseth & Waltz???

So, our allies hate us and are telling their citizens not to visit America because they don't want them, you know, deported or sent to detention centers. This in turn will hurt our economy and threaten US tourists and sites abroad. Are you great again?

If you shop at the grocery store, fill your car with gas, or care about inflation and our nation’s economy, this is your fight too. These illegally fired FTC commissioners work to hold big corporations accountable—and now they’re suing. We've got to have their backs.

This captures the vile, racist lawlessness and cruelty of the Trumpist regime so precisely. Hard to come up with something that is further removed from the nobler aspirations in the country’s history - and more in line with the absolute worst version of what America has been.

Lotta people talking a big game about where the Democratic party should go from here but here’s the thing: The way you change the party is by changing the people who run for office from the ground up — @runforsomething.net has the biggest candidate pipeline on our side & it’s growing every day.

So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

Trump just pardoned the founder of Nikola, an electric trucking company, who was serving 4 years for fraud after tricking investors by rolling a truck downhill and claiming it was moving under its own power among other fraudulent activities. The coin operated presidency strikes again.

1. OMG. The main concern is not the ability to hack Signal; it’s that if a foreign government has penetrated the phone of a person who is using Signal, they can read all of the communications on that phone in real time.
