The super-rich want to keep corrupt Republicans in power so they can keep getting super-richer. Elon Musk is No. 1 in spending – about half a BILLION. Boycott Tesla. The Uihleins are No. 2. Boycott Uline shipping & packaging products. If you support Tesla or Uline, you're buying a dictatorship.

A major problem with political journalism is the perceived obligation to treat Republicans and Democrats equally, to be "nonpartisan." The NY Times editor in this video thinks this way. But as I explain, Dems vs. GOP is a simplistic focus. It should be decency vs. indecency, democracy vs. fascism.

Maga wants blood. Our blood, apparently the Words,’Release the EPSTEIN FILES, is so offensive, it triggers rage & violence for the maga cult Pedophiles. Are the pedophiles so blind with rage that when others demand justice they lose all control? It is a crime to RAPE, ABUSE Children still, isn’t it?

PSA, Colorado voters: Elon Musk’s America PAC has been sending misleading texts saying, “Your ballot request is in,” and asking voters to confirm where and when to return it. The messages have prompted confused residents to contact county election offices.

soon they’ll wheel Trump out to the beach waterline and he’ll command the tides to stop rising and falling.

President Trump mused that he could rebrand either the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean, following his efforts to change the names of the Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario. “We call it ‘Trump Ocean’ or, or, ‘Ocean of the Americas,’ something like that,” Trump said.

this is an…unbelievable paragraph. yeah, what could be the difference between the court overturning a duly-passed and signed law and the court overturning an executive memo that violates the law?

Tom Scocca@tomscocca.bsky.social

The paragraph before seems equally detached from events—this would-be stumper of a question about the Court overturning executive orders is a lot less of a stumper when the executive orders keep violating laws passed by Congress!

Katrina is a wound NO will always carry. But it's also the story of a people who refused to quit on the city they love. We are all in the same boat. Today we remember those we lost. We honor the families who endured. And we give thanks for the strength and love that helped NO rise again.

Brennan: "Nearly all of Florida is below the 95% immunization rate for herd immunity for measles. So, is your message to Florida parents to get your kids vaccinated?" Byron Donalds: "No. My message is the reason we have seen a measles outbreak is because of rampant illegal immigration."

Trump, on camera, surrounded by laughing aides: “I almost like to hear bad numbers. I hope we have bad numbers so interest rates go down.” He’s not managing the economy. He’s rooting against you to win an argument with the Fed and he thinks it’s a punchline.

According to reporting from Bloomberg, more than 30 corporations have been targeted by lawmakers this year over surveillance pricing. This has led to a big lobbying blitz from corporations like Kroger, Uber, and Walmart. Here's what you need to know about the shady pricing practice.

Joe Rogan knows everything there is about every conspiracy theory out there, but when it comes to all of Trump's real-life government scheming and corruption, he seems behind the curve.

The sad part is that only a tiny fraction of Americans even know a small percentage of the corrupt things Trump has been doing.

I'm sorry, but calling advocates of congestion pricing "jihadists" is sincerely hilarious.

Trump’s DOJ wants your personal voter data for one reason: to remove people from voter rolls who might vote against Republicans. “All of this is about weaponizing this data in order to make it harder for people like you to vote,” Marc Elias says. https://demdock.com/3T3Owjg

To Michigan voters, Jewish or not, tempted to vote for Mike Rogers because you are turned off by al-Sayed, remember that a vote for Rogers is a vote for Trump. For judges like Aileen Cannon, Alito. For iCE sadism. For Blanche, RFK. Jr. For rank corruption. For voter suppression

Reflecting Pool lessons: 1. Trump administration lying is routine and pervasive. Nothing they say or do should have a "presumption of regularity." 2.

I've been as critical of the Post as anyone, but this is a reminder that they still have some terrific reporters and their analysis of the Reflecting Pool damage made Pirro's prosecution seem (even more) unsustainable.

Trump called the affordability crisis a "hoax." His party's budget proves that's exactly how they see it. No plan to lower costs. No help for working families. They would rather spend money on tax breaks for billionaires and endless foreign wars.
