But the cult and the rest of the spineless GOP Congress don't care that he's coercing, threatening, and blackmailing anybody and everyone trying to release the Epstein files.

If you see a parent stealing diapers or formula you look away, or ideally you buy them some. That anyone even called the cops about this is 🤮, but someone justifying the cops shooting - especially towards the child - is so disgusting I find it difficult to even process.

Trump keeps backing himself into a corner by blinking every time Iran publicly pulls back from the negotiations, then he tweets out the same insane shit to make his followers think he’s a tough guy.

Trump posted his Iran "Documents of Surrender" fantasy on May 18. Then again May 26. Then again just now. Verbatim. Three times. Surely the third time's a charm.

We now know the Iran war price tag is more like $50 billion - hundreds of dollars per household - and counting. It's enough to cover all the health insurance premium credits that the Republicans got rid of for this year, and next. It could save rural hospitals, pay teachers, fix roads.

The verdict of a prominent conservative website and magazine: "A 79-year-old man who has long dealt in chaos is now being consumed by that chaos. His episodes are becoming more frequent, his good days further apart. What he has lost is not a sense of decency or decorum—he never had those...

In all seriousness, one thing that might be worth doing today: Tell your Reps and Senators to call Adm. Richard Correll, the Commander of U.S. Strategic Command, which controls the nation's nukes, and remind him of *his* unique responsibility to refuse an illegal order.

I am sickened by the NYT and others normalizing Trump’s threat to bomb Iranians “back to the Stone Ages” as simply a sign of a possible “expansion” of the war. It’s a barbaric statement, promising horrific war crimes. Everyone should be appalled.

Bombing Iranians "back to the Stone Ages" would be a war crime of massive proportions. News orgs need to sound the alarm, and ask some key questions. presswatchers.org/2026/04/are-...

President Trump’s so-called "Religious Liberty Commission" is not about religious liberty - it's about promoting Christian Nationalism. Separation of church and state is under accelerated attack. We’re suing on behalf of a diverse faith coalition to fight back.

This is amazing. If only democrats would try to explain this to the electorate. It’s a winning message all the way around.

I think this is SUCH an important discussion, and she was so great. Reupping so people know this is out there. I raved to my husband about it all evening— she was fantastic.

This should be an impeachable offense. I understand that we’re way past any of that, but that shouldn’t stop us from naming it.

Yesterday, Jeffrey Epstein's former account testified, under oath, that the Epstein Estate paid a settlement to one of the women accusing Donald Trump of raping her as a minor, AFTER Epstein had died. This would end any other President instantly. But the press doesn't care.

In cases you were wondering . . . this is a photo that annoyed Pete Hegseth so much because he thought it was "unflattering" so he got the photographer barred. I encourage all of you to use it as often as possible.

There is apparently credible evidence that the president of the United States is a pedophile. The comforting phrase “accused him without evidence” no longer fits this situation, and journalists must resort to the more perfunctory “hasn’t been formally charged.” www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...
