Someone once said our leaders aren’t lying when they say our wars are in our national interests because their wealthy donors see their financial interests as our national interests. This is a perfect example of that. www.newsweek.com/trump-says-h...

Trump aides asked cybersecurity agency to figure out how to hack a voting machine and give that information to the White House. If Republicans somehow win, this might be how, & it will taint any who win legitimately. www.rawstory.com/trump-midter...

For a decade, Trump has targeted Rep. Ilhan Omar with grotesque, racist rhetoric that has fueled threats against her. This federal raid on her home is a dangerous escalation. Rep. Omar has done nothing to warrant this kind of intimidation.

I can’t believe I agree with Karl Rove. www.sacurrent.com/news/politic...

Even if you don’t believe in climate change or care about pollution, oil wars & supply disruption make having electric cars & hybrids look like a smart investment. www.huffpost.com/entry/live-u...

Who on the White House staff thought this would make Trump look good? It makes him sound like someone who needs a nurse to follow him around to keep him from putting his fingers in light sockets or eating crayons. www.yahoo.com/news/politic...

Does this apply to the Grifter-in-Chief?

Sen. Wyden: It seems that every time Republicans get their hands on Social Security, life gets worse for older people. Thanks to Trump and the Big Beautiful Bill, the crisis is speeding up. It gave huge tax breaks to billionaires and corporations, and plundered Social Security by $168 billion.

Once you recognize it, you can't unhear how he talks like a wifebeater.

The exact same people who tell us to piss our pants in fear about Iran possibly getting a handful of nukes don’t say a word about Russia’s THOUSANDS as we pour gas on a proxy war that could lead to a nuclear exchange. www.the-sun.com/news/16716650/

This has gonna take some creativity for propagandists to explain away. www.mediaite.com/media/news/n...

Does anybody still think ICE is doing anything like law enforcement? archive.ph/Drzoh

This is all of the very wealthy. They talk about social darwinism for the rest of us, but demand tax cuts, subsidies, wars, & when their scams blow up in their faces, massive bailouts.

wake up babe the white house is a six flags

Thanks, Vonnegut. 💜

The main difference between the Bible and To Kill a Mockingbird is that when someone calls To Kill a Mockingbird their favorite book, they’ve probably read it.

BREAKING: The judge has DISMISSED the criminal charges against Kilmar Abrego Garcia on vindictive and selective prosecution grounds! A MAJOR win for Mr. Abrego. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEWSMAX host says Trump’s Cuba case sounds like a false flag. Antiwar sentiment is pretty strong when even the president’s cheerleader network calls BS. www.mediaite.com/media/news/i...

So if Trump wants to arrest & prosecute Raul Castro for shooting down planes possibly run by the CIA, does that mean other countries can arrest him and Hegseth for blowing up random boats in the Caribbean they claimed were drug dealers? www.huffpost.com/entry/raul-c...

This is how you need to campaign and govern. It aint rocket science. open.substack.com/pub/thefeed1...

It’s going to take more than expanding the Supreme Court to straighten it out. Term limits, rotation from lower courts, or selection by a commission of legal scholars, serving judges, attorneys general, & others to recommend picks might help, too. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

If our military bases can be targeted with the same precision we used to kill the leader of Iran, maybe it's time to figure out how to co-exist with other countries instead of making them all slaves to our banks & oil companies. www.cnn.com/2026/05/01/w...

DO NOT STOP TALKING ABOUT THE EPSTEIN FILES

They used the "rotating maverick" (or "rotating scapegoat" depending on your point of view) to keep this war going.

I've seen a lot of this at public schools in California, from high school through universities.

As local election officials prepare for midterms, concerns about their own safety remain high. As mentioned in Chris Jansing Reports, the Brennan Center's new survey finds that 23% of officials are concerned about being assaulted at home or at work:

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court BLOCKS Indiana law banning the use of a student ID for voting. A huge victory my law firm, our clients Count US IN and Women4Change Indiana, and the voters of Indiana. Another reminder that when we fight we win! www.democracydocket.com/cases/indian...

Stop calling Trump a child rapist, filthy libs! Yes, he was best friends w/a child rapist; and he’s been accused in govt docs of raping children; & he wished a guilty child rapist well; & he’s broken his own law every day since Dec 19 to protect child rapists. But, I mean, that’s all you’ve got?

5-Alarm Fire: A survey by the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) confirms that 70% of responding farmers feel fertilizer prices are so high they cannot afford the necessary supplies for this year's crops. This is a direct result of Trump's war with Iran and closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

The Epstein Files are the beginning of something we've needed for a long time: the surveillance camera turned toward those at the TOP, not the bottom, because they can do a hell of a lot more harm (and not just with their sick fetishes).

“You’re not blockading the Strait of Hormuz—I’M BLOCKADING IT!” www.cnbc.com/2026/04/12/t...

There it is—Dated Brent (i.e., spot) crude hits $144.46/bbl, a new all-time high.

Every excuse given for regime change abroad, sanctions, or wars, put “The Epstein class says” in front of it to properly judge its credibility.
