FIFA President Infantino announces the FIFA privatization scheme will NOT proceed after fierce backlash and growing divisions over the plan. The reversal comes after European nations announced a boycott and CONCACAF rejected the proposal, which involved a private equity deal tied to the Kushners.

Remember when egg prices were breaking everyone’s backs? Turns out the prices were fixed. This punishment isn’t fitting the crime. The difference between $1.2 billion in profits and a $3.3 million fine for lying to consumers is insane. The math isn’t mathing.

After Missouri voters passed ballot measures to enshrine abortion rights and establish paid sick leave, GOP state legislators overturned them. Now voters may have to pass another referendum just to protect the progress they've made. The GOP's contempt for democracy is absurd.

The white nationalist undertones in this speech have been dramatically underreported. Trump says the colonists had British blood, the 1776 revolutionaries’ “veins ran with Anglo-Saxon courage,” and criticized the notion that America is an idea. Echoed Vance’s blood and soil speech from last year.

in the history of speeches that have been read right off a sheet of paper, nobody has a read a speech off a sheet of paper harder than what Trump is doing right now

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs. Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026. This is what corporate greed looks like.

Chris Murphy: "He's not telling the truth. But if you accept even part of the Iranian statement, Donald Trump has agreed to give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz. That is extraordinary and cataclysmic for the world."

A reminder that fake voter fraud and false claims of election rigging were always the plan. Here’s a direct message from Assange to Don Jr way back in 2016.

The Washington Post published a clear video of federal agents removing Alex Pretti's handgun moments before he was fatally shot. There's nothing in the video to suggest Pretti even reached for his weapon. wapo.st/49Zqv1L

Another reason Democrats must stop, defund, and ultimately abolish ICE: voter suppression. ICE has forced a significant number of people of color to hide inside their homes. What if ICE patrols just outside key polling places during the midterms?

CNN put together a clip of JD Vance claiming ICE agents have "absolute immunity" followed by him two weeks later claiming "I didn't say that officers who engage in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity"

Brian Allen 🚨 NEW AUDIO: Karoline Leavitt just threatened CBS News over Trump’s interview: “Air it in full… or we’ll sue your ass off.” The White House is now openly trying to bully the media into compliance. This isn’t “transparency.” It’s intimidation.

This isn’t immigration policy. It’s a business model. ICE keeps growing, not because it makes America safer, but because corporations are raking in billions off cages, bodies, and suffering. ICE’s existence is a massive revenue stream.

I highly recommend watching this segment, not just because the CBS News execs and the White House didn’t want you to, but because these men were tortured and they deserved to have their voices heard.

I can’t believe how much of the Trump era is about solving problems that *don’t* exist while making all the problems that *do* exist, worse. There is no one who thinks the biggest problem with air travel right now is not having an area to do pull-ups.

Duffy on what he's doing to improve the airport experience for travelers: "Maybe I want a workout area where people might get some blood flowing doing some pull ups or step ups in the airport."

FUCK‼️ This should concern every single person in the US. The GOP won’t extend subsidies in Dec—because they want to completely gut the ACA and its protections. Every single person with a pre-existing condition runs the risk of being uninsurable without it. The GOP is a death cult.

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more. That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs. It looks a lot more like preparation for war. Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."
