$800 MILLION.
That's how much more Americans are paying every day on gas thanks to Trump's war with Iran. But guess who's getting richer?
Chevron CEO: +$104M
ConocoPhillips CEO: +$54M
Baker Hughes CEO: +$33M
The same Big Oil executives Trump promised to deliver for on day one.
A warning to anyone planning to attend a World Cup game:
Do not attend a World Cup game in the United States. Even American citizens are at risk of being kidnapped, beaten, murdered, or placed in an inhumane detention facility.
A football (soccer) game is not worth the risk.
STAY HOME!!
An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house."
The threat was greeted with extreme concern by civil liberties and digital privacy groups. It suggests the LAPD could be using facial recognition to identify and retaliate against protesters.
Trump and DOGE are making devastating cuts to agencies and programs that serve the public — all in the name of rooting out "fraud and waste."
Meanwhile, the regime is reportedly planning a military parade for Trump's birthday that could cost an estimated $92 million.
Hello?
Trump is threatening to revoke Harvard’s tax exempt status because the university refused to cave to his demands.
Why is he so hell-bent on attacking universities?
Because an educated and informed citizenry has always been the biggest threat to a dictator's power.
Canadian journalists are finally getting paid by big tech companies that use their content. Let’s pass my bipartisan bill to do the same here and help local news survive.
There is a reason why millions of workers want to join unions.
There is a reason why greedy corporations oppose unions.
Union membership means higher wages and better benefits.
Let’s grow the trade union movement.
In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”
This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.
He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.
Letter from Dem Senator Chris Van Hollen (MD) requesting a meeting with Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele
To discuss MD father Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return
"If Kilmar is not home by midweek – I plan to travel to El Salvador this week to check on his condition and discuss his release."
A win for truth and history: A National Park Service page(removed by Musk) on the Underground Railroad has been restored to prominently feature Harriet Tubman, after her image and quote were removed earlier this year. Now, her legacy as a fearless champion for freedom has rightfully been restored. ✊
Swalwell: Hegseth is still the Secretary of Defense? This moron texts out our war plans, putting our soldiers at risk, and he’s not gone?
Every one on that chat—they just fire off texts not knowing who is on the chat? They all should be fired if they don’t resign.
Sanders: Does anybody think it makes sense that we have a campaign finance system where one man (Musk) can put $270 million to get Trump elected and then his reward is that he becomes the most powerful person in government?
That is not democracy. That is oligarchy.
GSK has made it too expensive for parents to buy inhalers for their kids.
It's wrong.
Children are already facing dangerous consequences. I'm calling for an investigation.
Trump says he’ll use revenue from tariffs to “offset” more big tax cuts.
Those tax cuts will disproportionately benefit wealthy Americans and big corporations.
But revenue raised from tariffs will be coming disproportionately from average working people.
It's another scam.
Beshear: When I vetoed the nastiest anti-LGBTQ+ bill during my election year, I explained why I did it. My faith teaches me that all children are children of God. I wanted those children, who were being hated on, to know their governor cares for them… my faith tells me that’s my job
Why have Musk-backed PACs spent $10M on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race?
It's not just to uphold WI's abortion ban and gerrymandered maps.
Tesla is suing WI over a state law that hurts its bottom line — a case that could be decided by its Supreme Court.
Follow the money.
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.
2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.
3) Donors make a huge profit.
4) Repeat.
For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.
