Hold the line, democrats.

While you weren't looking, Trump rolled back Biden's ethics rules prohibiting executive branch employees from accepting major gifts from lobbyists. So much for "drain the swamp."

Thank you, Adam.

Puppy killing MAGA hag Kristi Noem will be the only Department of Homeland Security Secretary STILL banned from Indian reservations in South Dakota.

Navajo Nation firefighters taking a well earned break. These tribesmen are apolitical. They simply came to L.A. to help.

Jeff Bezos' Washington Post editorial board has endorsed Pam Bondi as a "qualified" and "serious" pick for Attorney General. Nowhere in the endorsement did they mention that she's a former Amazon lobbyist. Billionaire control of our media is a threat to democracy.

JUST IN: Speaker Johnson says Congress should impose conditions on disaster aid to California.

We owe a great debt to the firefighting crews now battling the blazes. Those crews, not incidentally, include over 900 inmates from California prisons. Some thoughts 👇

As a born and raised L.A. resident I’m incredibly thankful for Canada and Mexico. No politics. No bullshit. Just humans helping humans.

NEW: North Carolina Alliance for Retired Americans, VoteVets Action Fund and individual voters file motion to oppose GOP effort to disenfranchise tens of thousands of voters in state Supreme Court election. Proud that my law firm is representing these brave clients in this fight for voting rights.

Trump is now threatening to impose tariffs on products from the EU unless they make a “large scale purchase of our oil & gas.” Making oil oligarchs more billions at the expense of every other American consumer and company. Working class MAGA are sheep. meidasnews.com/news/donald-...

Mace is quickly running out of friends.

The world's richest man is concerned about "government overspending." Yet his concern about deficits seems to disappear when it comes to extending tax cuts that will disproportionately benefit billionaires like him. Tax cuts that will balloon the deficit by $5 trillion, btw.

NEW: They’re already trying to cut social security. Dems in the senate saved it.
