The surest sign that a majority SCOTUS decision was moral, fair, and based on existing law:

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020. — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

It's nuts that Republicans in Congress DRAGGED Secretary of Defense LLoyd Austin through hearings for going to the doctor one day, but Mitch McConnell is out for four months and that's totes fine.

Katie Phang on the Pentagon secretly hiring MAGA influencers: "I sincerely doubt they're working for free. So does that mean that my taxpayer money is going to fund a conservative influencer to push Kegsbreath and convicted felon Donald Trump's bullshit?"

A Florida grand jury found the DeSantis administration “misappropriated” $10 million meant to provide health insurance for poor children. Part of a “sophisticated scheme to fund political activities,” the money was funneled through multiple organizations before reaching two PACs and the Florida GOP.

Oh, honey . . . Dolly Parton disliked everything you are. You are a selfish, venal fool who mocks those with misfortunes, lies, and takes food and medicine away from children. She was a generous, incorruptible sage who comforted those with misfortunes, spoke the truth, and gave to children.

Let’s be clear, there is a literal convicted criminal in the bulldozed White House currently committing fraud, war crimes, money laundering, espionage, treason, sedition and more, but trash like bathroom rug head Rand Paul want Dr. Anthony Fauci jailed for saving lives. Truly depraved.

Blanche was confirmed as AG. Just a reminder: The last time a president appointed an attorney he had personal ties to, was when Nixon appointed his law partner and campaign manager John Mitchell. Mitchell ended up disbarred and spent 2 yrs in prison for his role as AG protecting Nixon.

Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime. This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.

I would never eat dinner with Donald Trump. I would never clap or laugh at his jokes. I would never shake his hand. When he attacks me, I wear his scorn as a badge of honor. I founded Democracy Docket to never back down or obey. Subscribe now. demdock.com/4w6emld

Normally, I would write about last night's shameful display of the legacy media fêting Donald Trump. But with only 101 days until the elections, they are a lost cause. If you want to stay informed about Trump's attacks and how we fight back, subscribe to Democracy Docket. demdock.com/4w6emld

The reporting by NBC News on our depletion of weapons and by the Times on the selection of a CNO is more evidence that Hegseth—with his firing of competent general officers, politicized promotions, and a culture where truth-telling is punished—has done real damage to our military.

Jerry Mander: "It's time to make science a thing again."

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

Donald Trump is mentally deranged. He’s a danger to the U.S. He’s a danger to the globe. He does not belong in this position of power—in control of the massive U.S. military—and he should be removed from office. This is not a joke. And his GOP enablers are responsible for abdicating their duty.

The Houston Chronicle, largest newspaper in Houston endorse James Talarico! 👏 Writing, “Texans deserve better than Ken Paxton’s moral rot’… Paxton’s documented deeds prove he’s a man of low character, lacking integrity. An extremely very poor candidate for an even more powerful political office.

glad congress isn’t alive to see this

We gave Iran a massive concession they want very badly up front in advance in exchange for a promise to allow inspectors in again with zero specifics about when, how, or what sites they will be allowed to see. This is insanity.

Let’s find an unqualified nepo-baby with zero experience in military, intelligence or government service who repeatedly says dumb things and has spent his time as housing finance director trying to prosecute Dems & make him DNI. What a joke this admin is.

🤬🤬🤬

A study in contrasts.

It’s interesting watching the people who absolutely love it when Trump calls female reporters “piggy” or “fucking bitches” clutch their pearls and cry because someone called Stephen Miller an ugly fuck.

😡😡

The best way to honor fallen soldiers is to avoid careless reasons to create more of them.

Can we maybe try a Gen X next? Right now boomers have had 6, X has had zero presidents. And we have 40 trillion in debt to show for it

Our government is for sale to the highest bidders at home and abroad. The US government is an active, ongoing, organized criminal enterprise. www.politico.com/news/2026/05...

That's weird; he told reporters he had nothing to do with the fund. Now he's saying he gave up a lot of money "allowing" it.

No words.

He. Is. Insane. Corrupt. Evil.

Eligible to be paid with your money after storming the Capitol and breaking into Nancy Pelosi’s office.

No money for pediatric cancer research but there's $1.7 billion for people who beat cops and smeared feces on the walls of the US Capitol.

Trump issues executive orders to promote the fusion industry, he creates an Office of Fusion, prepares to deregulate it, all while Trump Media announces a merger with … you will never guess … a fusion company.

Donald Trump just stole $1.7B from us — and he's creating a slush fund to reward his political allies. I've never seen anything like this in my 50 years in politics. It makes Nixon look like a boy scout. www.cnbc.com/2026/05/18/t...

There is no way the republicans would be anything less that outraged if Obama had taken almost $2 billion of taxpayer dollars and given it to people he pardoned for trying to steal an election. Every republican in congress who doesn’t speak up and prevent this is complicit

I simply could not imagine being in congress and staying silent as Trump builds a slush fund of $1.776 (cute right… 1776) billion dollar slush fund for insurrrectionists. What are these people even there for? History will be brutal to them. And their kids will be embarrassed

Not even a little bit.

"Trump’s initial post about removing US troops from Germany came just hours after he spoke by phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has long sought to reduce the number of NATO troops in Europe... "The Pentagon 'was not expecting it'... www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Trump cuts in front of Queen Camilla to shake some hands

But he can’t go anywhere so he needs a ballroom bunker fortress. bsky.app/profile/ronf...

If the WH new ball room is critical for future security of POTUS, maybe he should cancel all future rallies, golf games, Mar-a-lardo stays etc and just hunker down in his bunker. I for one would enjoy the break.

Periodic reminder that the president has lost his fucking mind
