The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP. Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP. The people who need help are not the problem. It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

Here's a fun little nugget from Trump's demand that DOJ pay him, personally, $250 million: In his memo, he argues that prosecutors "should have foreseen" that he has "immunity from prosecution for officials acts." Thank you John Roberts, great rule of law-ing, sir! static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...

These Republicans are dehumanizing Democrats. Why? When you are at war, you need to dehumanize the enemy to justify killing them. That is what they are doing. I wish I was wrong. Please stay safe.

Republican Rep. Chip Roy: "The truth is the marxist, radicals, and Islamists the Democratic Party promoted this weekend, they cannot handle the truth. The truth is that there is a king and that king is Jesus. And... Charlie Kirk was willing to say it and he got killed for it."

He hates American values and principles. He hates democracy. He despises the Constitution and its constraints. He hates most Americans. All he desires is money, power and staying out of jail. Am I missing something?

Got buried in the news this weekend, but President Jesus said the F word on CNN at like 2pm in the afternoon. The next day he posted a poop-filled scat video, but tell Me more about the dignity of the office of the presidency.

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

If you living in the USA and are saying maybe we need a dictator, you are in the wrong country. Head over to Hungary, or Russia, or North Korea, etc. The United States of America is a democratic republic, based on freedom and justice for all. We've struggled with this, but were progressing til now.

She was paying $479 a month for her ACA health insurance. Next year she will be paying *$2,800* a month for the same plan. And it's all because Republicans decided to end ACA subsidies. Expect to hear stories like this all across the country very soon. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

We are in a fascist autocracy NOW. Selfish, ignorant Americans who couldn't be bothered to vote refused to hear the alarm bells we were ringing. American democracy is way past the danger threat. We now have to get American democracy back. WAKE UP.

Reuters poll: 57% of Americans fear that American democracy is in danger — including 4 in 10 Republicans.

Some call us shortsighted if we focus on retaking Congress in the midterms rather than on what comes next. No! That’s like calling shortsighted those on the Titanic who focused on avoiding the iceberg rather than on the rest of the voyage. There’s no “rest of the voyage” if we hit the damn iceberg!

They bend every law, they break every law, they hack voting machines, they deploy roving gangs of thugs to steal people off the street, they openly embrace racism, they lie nonstop, they incite political violence, and much more. Their evil knows no limits. Then they claim to be followers of Jesus.

The Social Security trust fund could be depleted by 2033, according to a new report from its trustees. There's a simple way to fix this: scrap the cap on the Social Security payroll tax. https://youtu.be/GfZuB7XSFys?si=p8Zw3o6MIfQi9xoo

Instead of sending expensive American jets to bomb a far away country, can’t we just fix our airports. I am sitting on another delayed flight. But hey there’s always money for war. What a joke.

So, to be clear, Musk has now admitted he funded a man he believes to be a pedophile to be president. And Trump has now admitted that he gave access to high level government secrets to a man he believes to be a big time drug addict. This should be *the* story on the Sunday shows tomorrow.

Trump called Musk "a big-time drug addict" in a phone call shortly after their public feud. (WaPo)

Trump doesn't feel like he's won unless he's ripped you off. That's what all the "deal" talk is -- 100% about other countries submitting, bowing the knee, acknowledging that he's the Big Man, that he can do what he wants without restraint. None of it has anything to do with economics.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

EVERY YEAR millionaires & billionaires evade $150 billion in taxes. Ten years of free community college costs only $80 billion. Ten years of canceled medical debt costs $88 billion. When we make the ultra-rich pay what they owe, we can invest in ALL of us. #EconomyForAll #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

If this is legally and factually true, then the US has trafficked him,and the others, conspiring with El Salvador, and this is a high crime , impeachable offense.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

Marco Rubio just made the argument, bold faced, not a mistake an intentional statement, that at any time the US can revoke your visa and then you are instantly here illegally and they can arrest you, deport you, torture you, all without any due process. That means the United States is simply unsafe
