BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

More lost American business; more lost American jobs.

This part

These representatives must be censured and removed. They voted to disenfranchise married women voters, which will make the midterms moot. WTF?

This would mean impeachment if we had a Congress & Senate that functioned as our Framer’s & Constitution intended, this was so blatantly illegal… We have so much work to do!

One billion percent tariffs.

💥 400+ general counsels sign open letter: “We oppose the targeting of lawyers and firms, and the resulting chilling effects on the legal profession and the business environment. We support lawyers and firms who endeavor to stand up to these threats and those that support their targeted peers”

Completely false and malicious. The measles outbreak started in West Texas among religious fundamentalist communities that reject vaccination. Nothing to do with immigrants coming across the border. Indeed, Mexico has superior vaccination rates and no measles outbreak.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

I’m on my way to Duluth to break ground on a $200 million business expansion project that will create over 150 manufacturing jobs. Amid the uncertainty in Washington, we’re still committed to building a stronger economy across the state.

🎶 Because the list (the list) does not exist Because the list does not exist 🎶 ~ Hall and Oates on tariff deals

Tariff everyone but Russia? Insider trading tweets? Market manipulation for his rich buddies to get richer off of the backs of smaller investors and their retirements? Cut crypto oversight? The WH and their base are a bunch of crooks.

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

One is made a national story every single week and the other is shhhhh.....

Musk's xAI facility now has 35 methane gas generators without permits. Lawyers say that violates the Clear Air Act. “xAI has essentially built a power plant in South Memphis with no oversight, no permitting, and no regard for families living nearby” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Sen. CHRIS VAN HOLLEN makes a good point: "The United States is paying El Salvador millions of dollars to take these prisoners. I'm sure we can get one out of there. Of course they get the guy out of there."

We are not even taking about this anymore! The press loves it cuz the constant chaos.

I am but a humble cable news host with a bachelor’s in philosophy, but I feel like at some point the bond market is also going to notice that the GOP is going to pass a deficit financed 5 trillion dollar tax cut. Maybe?

Is this the flash point where the Trump Administration defies SCOTUS?

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

🚨 NEWS: The White House confirms the tariff on Chinese imports is now 145%—not 125%. Reminder: tariffs are taxes on imported goods, which means Americans end up paying more.

Seriously? Because we were told they were going to deport violent criminals.

Donald Trump’s economic advisor just went on CNN and said the market crashing is “no big deal.” Their disdain for the American people is really unmatched.

What did Marjorie Taylor Greene know about the tariff announcements and what stock trades did she make? We need answers.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

The Democratic party leadership should be on the steps of city hall every day demanding the rule of law and the Constitution be followed.

House Republicans know the people reject Trump’s budget — slashing Medicaid to give billionaires tax cuts. But they won’t stand up to him. MAGA Mike thinks he’s got the votes TODAY. Let’s make sure he feels the heat 🔥 HANDS OFF OUR MEDICAID!
