The President of the United States spent his Sunday night writing a 1,300-word rant about Bill Maher. Not the economy. Not the wars. Not the midterms. Bill. Fucking. Maher.

Well, well, well…. An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election. This is what voter fraud looks like.

The man one the LEFT stood up to make a sincere remark to help discourse at a meeting. The man on the RIGHT stood up to pose an insincere question to intentionally undermine discourse at a meeting.

Ossoff: The money that they took from you when they slashed Medicaid and defunded hospitals and nursing homes—They’re taking that money to buy corrupt, taxpayer-funded political ads on national television to try to promote the failed and broken president…

Trump campaigns for Ken Paxton in Texas: "He can be a pain in the ass sometimes, I'll be honest. Is he here, by the way? Oh, there he is. I didn't even know if he was here! I don't care."

This is what corruption looks like. A Russian oligarch close to Putin spends hundreds of thousands of dollars bankrolling celebrations for the president’s son. And we’re supposed to believe it was just a generous wedding gift with no strings attached? #StopTrumpCorruption

If someone doesn't do their job, you fire them. It's time to give the Republicans in Congress their pink slips in November! #VoteBlue

Trump slapped a 50% tariff on Canadian goods …including hockey gear. 🏒🇨🇦 And who could pay more? AMERICAN HOCKEY FAMILIES. 🇺🇸 Trump keeps trying to punish Canada and somehow keeps finding new ways to punish Americans too. Brilliant. 🙄 #ElbowsUp #CanadaStrong #USDemocracy #RisingBlue

Oh, this is going to piss some folks off. They’ve repeated the lie so many times they thought nobody would check the receipts. We checked. Jeffries is the first Black party leader in congressional history, and the “bought by AIPAC” smear has been repeated like gospel. Here are the actual numbers.

Fukuyama: “Trump went to Moscow in the 1980s, while the Soviet Union still existed. He later spent tens of thousands of dollars on New York Times ads arguing that NATO caused the Cold War standoff and shouldn’t be funded.”

Abdul El-Sayed: “I go to big cities and small towns… People say the same thing: ‘It just shouldn’t be this hard. I’m working so hard, right? Two jobs, and I still can’t figure out how to make ends meet.’ We’re the richest, most powerful country in the world. We have the resources.”

Wow: the federal government is paying MAGA influencers on X and other social media to post pro-regime propaganda. Actual paid crisis actors. Incredible reporting here. wapo.st/4x0p3pf

The cyclospora outbreak has reached 17,180 cases across 48 states. The FDA has recalled 1.6 million eggs due to salmonella contamination. Screwworm cases continue to rise. And we’ve just surpassed 2,700 measles cases (including 2 recent deaths) — a 35 year high. “Make America Healthy Again.”

One of the things I hate the most about tariffs is that we knew they were illegal, and when the court finally decided they were illegal, they forced Trump to refund the tariffs. But the refunds went to the corporations, and not the people the corporations raised prices on. What a scam.

My name is not raising your gas prices. My name is not the reason we’re in an illegal war. My name is not the reason you can’t afford your healthcare. My name is not the reason that you can’t afford your rent or your insurance.

Trump says the deployments haven’t been “nearly long enough.” Easy to say when it’s never his life on the line, his family waiting at home, or his sacrifice. Remember this in November. Make him pay at the ballot box. #USDemocracy #RisingBlue

Ossoff: "Mike Collins is a known bigot under federal investigation for the illegal misuse of tax dollars surrounded by neo-Nazis and white nationalists, widely known for his poor character and low integrity, who voted for war and voted to cut your healthcare and is unfit for any elected office."

Trump is fine with you paying more for gas because of his war that we’re getting nothing out of. While he gold plates DC. “When you have to pay a little bit more, you’re at $4, it’s okay… I’ll never apologize. I did the right thing.” #BlueWaveIn80Days

When our economy, politics, and healthcare systems fail, it hits Black communities hardest. I look forward to working with leaders across communities to build economic empowerment, voting rights, and guaranteed healthcare so that all Michiganders thrive.

🧐 Marco Rubio in 2016: “I will make this promise to you today, I will do whatever it takes....Donald Trump, a con artist, will never get control of this party...We cannot allow a con artist to get access to the nuclear codes of the United States of America.”

Q: On the economy - what do you plan to do to make North Carolina more affordable? MICHAEL WHATLEY: *walks away* NARRATOR: He wouldn't take Qs on that even though we sent Whatley Qs more than 24 hours ago looking for specific plans. We have not been given a response beyond 2 paragraphs on his site

Man, my heart breaks for these service members. They didn’t sign up for this crap. This is a failure of leadership, and Pete Hegseth needs to be dragged into a congressional hearing sooner rather than later.

Dr Abdul El-Sayed: "It's not radical to believe that people should be able to afford their groceries, have healthcare, or drink clean water." In a political landscape dominated by fear, focusing on core human needs isn't extreme—it's basic common sense for everyday Americans.

Talarico’s voting rights agenda shouldn’t be controversial. 📌 Expand access to the ballot box 📌 Protect voting rights 📌 End partisan gerrymandering Politicians drawing themselves safe districts and then making it harder for people to vote isn’t democracy.
