OBAMA: "Trump is focused on enriching himself & his family/friends. A Venezuelan billionaire wanted a pardon, so he paid a Trump lawyers $50 million — and lo & behold! The pardon falls out of the sky... We’ve never seen a president straight-up grifting on your dime like this."

Anthony Davis on why some Trump supporters refuse to abandon him, even as his approval rating falls to record lows. “Admitting that a long-held political stance was mistaken requires accepting that years of defense, personal friction, and social conflict were based on a flawed premise.”

Right, the polling is wrong. That's why trump and his merry band of dipshits are headed to Kansas.

Cornell University treating Gaza protestors more harshly than gang rapists is a real statement of values. It’s almost like violent domination by the powerful is the core belief of leadership.

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Donald Trump: widening inequality, economic insecurity, and the unchecked political power of corporations and the rich. Political centrism is nonsense. There is no middle ground between democracy and oligarchy.

Yup. Someone making $18/hr is taught by someone making $8 MILLION/hr to hate someone making $80/hr.

There's a very simple question every Democrat (and Independent) running against a Republican should ask voters ahead of this November's midterms 👇 https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-most-important-question-of-the

FOX knows its audience. They know their audience cares more about what trans people are doing than they care about their own lack of healthcare.

Please don't overreact to Roberts Court decision on the contemplated USPS ballot moves They simply held that the injunction came too early in the process, before there was a final rule👇 Now we HAVE a final rule & we will litigate it. I'm as confident in our arguments here as in any of our cases!

It only took 19 months for RFK Jr to turn the once safe US food supply into a game of gastrointestinal Russian Roulette.

The new Heated Rivalry spinoff has been announced.

Trump is blowing through our Strategic Oil Reserve like the money he inherited from his dad.

While we slept, Donald Trump got approval to turn his personal crypto currency at World Liberty Financial into a BANK. The self dealing and corruption are about to be off the charts.

Donald Trump posted a graphic targeting Abdul El-Sayed and his wife, comparing them to him and Melania with the caption “Two Very Different America’s.” Here’s how El-Sayed flipped it right back on him live on CNN:

The Democratic Party’s mega-donor class is horrified by the rising tide of progressive populism. Too bad. It's time they recognize the real choice is between democracy and tyranny, between an economy that works for all or one that works for a small sliver at the top.

His company was responsible for $1.7 billion in Medicare fraud.

Reminder: Todd Blanche has… -Weaponized the DOJ to persecute Trump’s political foes -Purged hundreds of career DOJ lawyers -Botched the release of the Epstein files and ignored victims’ wishes He can’t be trusted and has no business being Attorney General. The Senate must reject him.

lots of reporters suddenly worried about slipping into communism but strangely f*cking quiet about slipping into fascism

“Is there concern the slippery slope to socialism ends up full-blown communism?”😵‍💫 🔥 @aoc.bsky.social : “No that’s silly. We can’t even raise the wage, you think communism will happen? They’re scaring ppl so we don’t talk about 🌎 having guaranteed health care.” (From @pabloreports.bsky.social )

"The hypocrisy of Democrats who say, 'Don't go on Hasan Piker's show,' but will go on Bill Maher's show." @mehdirhasan.bsky.social and Hasan Piker call out Democrats' hypocrisy for vilifying Hasan while continuing to appear with Bill Maher and Joe Rogan. Watch — zeteo.com/p/hasan-pike...

AOC 2028!!!

AOC: I believe in guaranteeing health care to every American. I believe in raising the minimum wage. I believe in strong unions. And so, yeah, if a Republican wants to call a stronger union communist, they’re more than welcome to do that. I’m not going to be deterred.

Video captures the moment several Iranian medium- to intermediate-range ballistic missiles struck Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan overnight. The attack killed at least two U.S. service members and injured several others, according to U.S. Central Command.

Just 10 billionaires have already poured over $600 MILLION into this year's midterms. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. If you're wondering what the real threat to "election integrity" is, it's Big Money.

He fucking won...twice. what the actual fuck.

The corruption is endless. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

Patriotism isn't about building walls, punishing immigrants, cutting taxes for the rich, attacking the press, or dividing us by race & faith. True patriots don't pander to divisiveness or hate. They work to confirm the "WE" in "We the People of the United States."

Taylor Swift's $$$$$ wedding where celebs party it up while Americans bake under a heat dome and can't afford AC is just such a perfect example of how the we need to tax the rich. TAX THE FUCKING RICH THEY RUB THEIR OPULENCE IN OUR FACES. Are you not entertained by the circus any longer? Good.

Even though @melatkirosco.bsky.social was winning at the time, NBC still kept her name out of the headline. Great win for Melat!! #Colorado #melatkiros #DSA

Phang: I have standing to be able to get Todd Blanche to comply with Judge Sullivan’s order, which is now telling him that on or before July 2nd, he either has to put up or shut up. He either has to bring forth unredacted files or show cause as to why he should not or cannot do so.

This motherfucker has no clue what the fuck is going on with anything other than his ballroom, arc de dipshit, or the algae pond.

THE PLAN 1. Flip the Senate this year 2. Block all GOP SCOTUS nominations 3. Hold the Senate and elect a Dem POTUS in 2028 4. Kill the filibuster 5. Pass a bill adding SCOTUS seats 6. Fill the 4 new vacancies 7. Have nice things

Also good to remind folks that all of the establishment Dems clutching their pearls right now are the same ones who endorsed Andrew Cuomo in the NYC mayoral primary knowing that he was a sexpest who harassed 11 women. This is not about morals for them. It's about appeasing AIPAC and billionaires.

do not forget the Epstein Files

Absolutely, this!

Imagine if a woman president crashed the economy and started a war with no end in sight, and her biggest, seemingly ONLY concern was building a ballroom and redecorating the White House.

Trump’s Truth Social posting over the last hour or so is completely batshit insane. Get a load of this nonstop nuttery.

The Republican Party quietly deleted their own ad attacking Ken Paxton's record on crime... because Paxton is now the Republican Party's nominee to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate. Figured if the ad is important enough to delete, it's important enough to see...

Longest, loudest booing in U.S. history? I’m counting on you, Knicks fans.

Cornyn didn't learn the lesson that the only way to defeat a bully is to fight back. He submitted to Trump instead. When you try to straddle the fence, you end up under the bus.

Further proof that this administration as no clue what they are doing.
