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?

A sure sign of dementia is seeing things that do not exist or are not there. Nowhere in this entire country is any of this happening. The only money pouring in is what will be pouring out of your pockets to pay for anything.

The Trump-Musk Budget is out. It tortures to death every program the average American family benefits from while (1) ensuring that no department that helps Elon Musk’s companies is harmed one iota, and (2) dumping endless wads of cash on a missile-defense scheme Trump was already told won’t work.

I’m still baffled at how America took one of the basic principles of the presidency — the occupant shouldn’t be able to benefit financially from the office — and just said, nah, that just doesn’t count for this one guy.

Remember, those who claim to be enraged that an almost imperceptible amount of federal dollars goes to NPR and PBS are currently before the Supreme Court demanding that your taxpayer money be spent to fund a Christian school in Oklahoma that definitionally trafficks in propaganda

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Trump and the GOP are gutting the FEC — which enforces campaign finance and anti-corruption laws. See how this works?

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978? 100%? 500%? Try 1,085% Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

I keep getting flashes of the alternative history where Harris/Walz won, and how things would be so completely different right now. Literally EVERYTHING would be better. For literally EVERYONE. Our nation would be strong & the envy of the world instead of the pariah it has become.

This is an unbelievable catch, but also, just the fact that there is a person named Daulton Varsho is delightful. It sounds like a name a comic book writer in the 1960s would give to a member of the Legion of Super-Heroes.

Some people I like are replying, "No, this was okay, at least Moran pushed back," and there is certainly room for differing opinions about how this was handled. But I think those differing opinions are, in part, because we have set our standard for how journalists should confront liars too low.

Jesus Christ. You can't say "It's contested." You can't say "Agree to disagree." You can't say "Let's move on." You have to say, "Mr. President, that is a lie." If it means he never talks to you again or yells at your boss, THAT'S FINE. What have you lost? More "opportunities" like this one?

Big issue is we don’t have any large groups or conventions working on a Project 2025 style plan for how we are going to roll back the worst of this, abolish ice, do actual good things for the people of this country. There is no plan and they got here by having a plan. We need a plan to work towards.

We fought for our independence. We fought to end slavery. We fought against the rise of fascism in Europe. We fought for civil rights. I refuse to believe we have lost the will to fight for what is right and just.

“He is granting audiences to people who buy his meme coin. When the sitting president of the United States is selling access for what are effectively payments directly to him. There is no question that that rises to the level of an impeachable offense.” Sen. Jon Ossoff

Deporting children with cancer with or without due process doesn't send a message of strength. It confirms to a horrified world that the Russian asset currently occupying the White House is sinking deeper into psychopathy.

If you’re attending the White House Correspondents Association dinner tonight, be sure to come prepared with a joke about the toddler cancer patient they just disappeared despite her being a citizen. Otherwise it’s going to be awkward when you’re mugging for photos with Stephen Miller.
