Trump is selling nuclear tech to Saudi Arabia despite reported US intelligence that the Saudis still want a bomb—while the Trumps have taken billions in bribes from the Saudis. This is Trump corruption at the expense of US national security. Stop the deal.

We absolutely, positively want a delusional, psychotic and psycopathic president talking about taking cities out with nuclear weapons. It’s all good, right? Nothing to see here, media?

A Maryland judge appointed by former GOP Gov. Larry Hogan has blocked Democrats’ redistricting amendment from the November ballot, which would imperil a new congressional map for 2028 if upheld. The judge paused the effect of the ruling to give Dems time to appeal to Maryland’s Supreme Court

The republicans are mad. Idaho republicans slam Trump’s slaughter of wild horses.

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are trans athletes in youth sports.

NEWS: Epstein survivors just gave Todd Blanche a failing grade after their meeting. "Condescending." "Gaslighting." No plan to go after anyone beyond Epstein and Maxwell. And Sen. Tillis's reaction? Somehow worse.

Warner on CBS: I was embarrassed that the president went before our country and networks like yours carried this as news as opposed to a rehash of falsehoods. It is incumbent upon you and any responsible journalist to pushback on this.

Beautiful illustration of the separation of parties rather than the separation of powers. And a damning confession.

What exactly would a "healthy" relationship with Donald Trump look like?

Enten: "With independents, Trump is 55 points underwater. My goodness gracious! This was a political disaster. No wonder he wants to move on from it. There was no president ever before that had any poll in which he was 50 point underwater inflation. The Iran war absolutely drove Trump to new lows."

3 minutes ago these guys were telling us Iran’s missiles were an existential threat to America and cheerleading an insane, illegal, and destined-to-fail war to get rid of all their missiles.

JD Vance lies his ass off: "Iran is weakened, their nuclear program destroyed" (Their nuclear program is not destroyed)

Waging a war of aggression to preserve your enemy's right of self defence.

A reporter points out to Vance that the administration said a handful of contradictory things about when the MOU was actually signed, and asks him, "Is what's going on behind the scenes as chaotic as your public messaging? Vance responds with an uncomfortable laugh.

JD Vance, meet JD Vance

Both Hillary Clinton and Marco Rubio seem to be describing Netanyahu using the same tactic 14 years apart. The difference is, it seems, the same tactic worked this time.

Fighting with the weather channel because weather is woke

Sean Strickland boycotts the White House UFC fight: "Just to go hang out with the fucking Epstein list? I'm good, dawg."

This guy was arrested Tuesday night and is in prison for making terroristic threats. His name is Jake Lang. He's a pardoned January 6 insurrectionist. His bail is set at $1M newrepublic.com/post/211646/...

2 hours apart.

Let me get right to the point. The Senate should not confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general. Here's why: https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-senate-should-not-confirm-this

Trump LOVES Inflation and Pedophiles An Epstein Class, led by Donald Trump, continues exploiting young girls, covering up for sex criminals, and profiting off of our collective misery. thelefthook.substack.com/p/trump-love...

BREAKING: we just won our Kennedy Center case! Both the renaming & the closure of the Kennedy Center are enjoined Kudos to our wonderful client @repbeatty.bsky.social & my colleagues @democracydefendersaction.org & Washington Litigation Group This is a 1-2 punch against Trump's corruption

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.  He embodies the broken system we’re running against. It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton

Trump: “I’ve studied this a long time” We have a country being run by people who think memes and social media conspiracies are peer-reviewed research.

This is Ken Paxton's mugshot. He was indicted on 3 felony counts for investment fraud. He was reported to the FBI by his own staff for bribery. He was impeached by his own party for corruption. Now he’s the Republican nominee for US Senate in Texas. Together we will stop him.

The U.S. and Israel's air war with Iran has killed thousands since its launch, but few attacks left a deeper mark than the strike on a school in Minab, Iran. https://to.pbs.org/4v6ID2n

Virginia voters showed up. Over 3 MILLION of them. And a court just threw their votes in the trash. This is voter suppression wearing a robe. Hakeem is right — this is unprecedented, undemocratic, and it CANNOT stand. Our fight is not over. We are just getting started. No Jim Crow 2.0

The Sargent at Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from Memphis from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.

TRUMP: I'm not a rapist. I didn't rape anybody O'DONNELL: Oh, you think he was referring to you?

Trump: I'm going to destroy an entire civilization. We're going to keep killing people in boats. Senator Kelly should be executed. ICE protesters are domestic terrorists. Immigrants are vermin. Raskin: Donald Trump is bad for this country. Bash: Do you regret your heated rhetoric, Rep. Raskin?

Vice President JD Vance was greeted by thousands of empty seats at a Turning Point USA event where all the tickets were free.

The DOJ just asked a federal appeals court to throw out the convictions of 12 Proud Boys and Oath Keepers members who were found guilty of crimes connected to the January 6th attack on the Capitol.

The president’s new attorney general today swore that not one single more Epstein file would be released. This is probably because the last AG got fired because she released credible allegations against the president by a 13-year-old child.

Did…the Trump regime lowkey threaten to kill the pope?

Amercians: The Constitution prescribes a separation between Church and State. Trump: I’m going to invade the Church if they don’t do what i want Americans: Which church? Trump: The big one

BREAKING: Extraordinary scenes as Iranian citizens start forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites. This is Kazerun Power Plant in Fars province, southern Iran (🎥 i24 News)

While Trump's assertion that "a whole civilization will die tonight" represents a discrete threat of genocide against Iran, the fact that it comes from a U.S. president, while Congress does nothing, actually represents a broader civilizational collapse — whether he follows through or not.

The President's posts are totally insane -- but also terrifying.   This is exactly why I voted against funding for Trump’s Dept of War. Trump is unhinged and he’s getting worse.   Congress must reconvene immediately, and Republicans need to join us in ending this war NOW.

This is sick and twisted from anyone, much less the president of the United States. Trump’s genocidal language and indiscriminate warfare cannot be normalized or accepted. He should be removed from office.

Targeting civilians would, in fact, be a war crime. This man is deranged, unstable, and unfit to lead. He thinks this is a game. Republicans need to find their backbone, rein him in, and end this reckless war before more innocent lives are lost and this escalates into something far worse.

Trump is completely unhinged. He's lashing out with no plan, threatening horrific war crimes after already bombing a girl's school. It's making the entire world, including the United States, less safe. Every Republican enabling him is responsible. Congress must act.

This man is threatening mass killings & war crimes on social media. When will enough be enough? These aren’t policy differences. He’s threatening crimes. It’s time to invoke the 25th. But we can’t do it alone—we need our Republican colleagues to do the right thing for this country & for the world.

(1/2) Unhinged. Out of control. Criminal. It’s past time for Congress to end Trump’s dangerous war in Iran before it and he spirals even further out of control.
