A January 6 rioters who filmed himself drinking Fireball in Nancy Pelosi's office visited another government office this week: Todd Blanche's. It sure doesn't sound like the payout fund for insurrectionists is dead.

Trump admin has quietly drafted new rules governing the census expected to recategorize millions of immigrants (both unauthorized and legal) as not actually living here in the United States This would allow the GOP to steal congressional seats & redirect hundreds of billions of federal dollars

The US military claims the Strait of Hormuz is open, and 140 ships passed through in the past week. Before the war began, the average was 138 ships -- per day.

I bet they'll have a good laugh about this at the White House Stenographers Dinner.

JUST IN: Over 1,200 former DOJ employees just signed a letter urging the Senate to REJECT Todd Blanche's nomination for Attorney General.

Since the start of President Trump’s second term, The New York Times has been documenting examples of moves by members of Mr. Trump’s family or the families of top aides to profit off of Trump administration policy actions. Today we take another look.

this is a terrific opening paragraph for a dystopian pulp novel released in 1997

A sensitive Defense Department branch responsible for uncovering and defending against terrorism plots has a new appointee: a Jan. 6 rioter who was pardoned President Trump. nyti.ms/43MLamL

In the 12 states with available data, the number of children receiving food stamps has fallen by more than 700,000 since the "One Big Beautiful Bill" passed last July www.cbpp.org/blog/sharp-d...

The day has finally arrived. You can now *officially* watch puffins live from the Farne Islands, 24 hours a day: bit.ly/4tRz72T Please enjoy these puffins kissing in celebration of this momentous event.

This is such a sad an embarrassing jacket Kash Patel is wearing. I can’t imagine any previous FBI director ever wearing something like this, let alone for a TV interview.

Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry declared a state of emergency, not for a natural disaster, but to redraw district lines and erase a historically Black seat. This is what election manipulation looks like, and they're doing it in plain sight.

There is no equivalent on the Democratic side for the pure, undiluted nihilism coming from the federal government right now. We basically have one party of technocrats and one party of Branch Davidians.

You could give 130,000 kids free school lunch for a year with this much money instead

Trump's pick for Fed chair should be asked about his relationship with anti-democracy billionaire Peter Thiel before we let him anywhere near our Federal Reserve. Watch LP Senior Advisor Stuart Stevens on MSNOW.

The Bondi firing will get all the attention but what Hegseth is doing with the upper echelons of the military is much more dangerous over time than Bondi’s tenure as AG. And it won’t get 1% of the coverage. Someday it will get a lot of coverage, and those will be dark days.

It’s like they’re trying to lose the midterms www.axios.com/2026/03/30/g...

Surely not! Corruption in Trumpland?!

Lots of suspicious trades in oil/equities just ahead of Trump tweets backing off his ultimatum. Sure looks like somebody close to Trump knew he was about to TACO, and exploited that inside information to make huge, instant profits From @pkrugman.bsky.social: paulkrugman.substack.com/p/treason-in...

150 US soldiers have been injured, 5,000 more heading into Iran today. Trump is a coward, criminal, five-time draft dodging piece of shit sending your kids to war.

DOGE said it was cutting government waste. So they gutted USAID — the agency that feeds starving people around the world. Meanwhile the Pentagon spent millions on lobster, ribeye, and even a $98,000 piano. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

According to new analysis from @budgetlab.bsky.social, Trump's plan to illegally index capital gains for inflation would be a massive giveaway to the rich, giving almost nothing to the bottom 80% of Americans while giving the top 0.1% a $350k annual tax break, EVEN MORE than what they got in OBBBA.

Those three downed jets run around $90 million each. It cost $20 million a year to operate the food kitchens serving 816,000 people in Sudan.

so in conclusion, the state of the union is actually very bad because a man who tried to end democracy is using the government to personally enrich himself and his buddies while executing citizens and noncitizens alike

NEW: Part one of our Series 'Profiles in Corruption,' where we shine a light on the personal financial interests of people close to the president. "Don Jr. has transformed his proximity to the Oval Office into a business, seemingly finding ways to monetize defense contracts, foreign policy, and do

Don't CAVE Do NOT fund ICE @schumer.senate.gov @booker.senate.gov @gluesenkampperez.house.gov @gallego.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov @shaheen.senate.gov @rosen.senate.gov @sencortezmasto.govpeeps.us @durbin.senate.gov @kaine.senate.gov

Don’t look away from MN. ICE is still wreaking havoc across the state - changing their tactics to deceive Minnesotans - pretending to be construction workers or folks delivering groceries. Still over 2,000 ICE agents in the state. They’re not going anywhere, your anger and outrage shouldn’t either.

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Gov. Beshear: "They want to try to silence the voices of of our citizens. They want people that are valid voters to think that they shouldn't show up at the polls. But guess what…The American people are ready for change and they won't be bullied by this president."

There's a presumption of good faith here that seems...overly generous

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

If DNI Gabbard is involved in an investigation at “President Trump’s directive to secure our elections,” and that “investigation” involves seizing voter rolls from the 2020 election, then his purpose is clear: use the intelligence community to interfere in the upcoming election.

The White House and a lot of Republican members are saying that during a shutdown, FEMA’s disaster relief would stop, but that isn’t true. As of the end of December, FEMA’s disaster relief fund had $23 billion in funds that are usable during a shutdown. And here’s DHS’s shutdown plan.

Trump has given ICE a hunting license to kill Americans. Senator Chuck Schumer needs to shut down the DHS appropriations. This is not a policy fight.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

AMERICAN MEDIA IS LYING TO VOTERS, THATS WHY.

ITS FUNNY HOW LIP SERVICE WORKS IN TWO DIRECTIONS AYE? When they campaign and make promises they dont intend to keep (like Epstein) and when their lips are shut on serious issues that raise our eyebrows. Both are lies. The fake promise and the silence that is complicity. We are being led by liars

The money that used to help Americans get healthcare is now being used to sponsor state terrorism. You can’t afford to see a doctor but the guy with no diploma and no skills is getting paid that money to intimidate and harm citizens.

Donald Trump has used the presidency to make himself more than $1.4 billion, so far.

“the agents pressed his face against the pool of blood and did not immediately call paramedics.” “The other officers were mocking him, saying, 'You're going to lose your eye," she said, recalling what her nephew told her.”

Last week I asked BOP officials if they had sent tactical teams to Minneapolis. They denied it (left). Multiple agency sources told me otherwise, and photos from reporters on the ground soon confirmed BOP folks were there. Now BOP is finally admitting it (right):

Minneapolis, Minnesota is under Trump regime occupation; at least 3,000 regime forces are terrorizing the city, raiding homes door to door without warrants, and grabbing people and children off the street based on their skin colour. No sign of the Minnesota National Guard.
