Another story impossible to imagine in any other administration: the president's son goes hunting with a Russian criminal who is part of Putin's security entourage

Off the charts Trump family corruption. Kushner got Billions of foreign funds, while spearheading foreign policy. And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn

To the shock and surprise of exactly no one

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

“I’m sure you’re aware of our connections with the Trump Administration,” the North Carolina Republican Party's comms director wrote in an email response to us. “I would strongly suggest dropping this story.” We didn't. Read the story that he wanted dropped (published Oct. 2025):

“To play in venues that silence anyone advocating for Free Palestine is simply not an option for us… most of the audience supported @macklemore… the real enemy is the Zionist lobby. Up the workers. Free Palestine.” @edsheeran’s band Beoga reminding us what moral clarity is

UN: Ebola outbreak in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) – the fastest-growing on record and on track to become the deadliest – is killing one person every 30 minutes.

Insane that this has been normalized and is probably not even gonna crack the news.

Palantir paid no U.S. federal income tax last year despite recording substantial profits. truthout.org/articles/pal...

I am not the first to make this point but imagine a woman president obsessing constantly over her “ballroom” as the economy imploded and her war spun out of control

Indefinitely www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Some claim the US is using Ukraine as a proxy to weaken russia. Meanwhile, the US admin begs Ukraine to spare russia! We live in the dumbest times.

Gulf energy producers have lost all faith in Trump and are quietly accepting Iran's permanent control over the Strait of Hormuz — because the alternative, returning to war, would be worse, the WSJ reports. The global damage Trump has wrought with his incompetence is incalculable.

America First has become Blame America First. Minnesota did not attack its own water supply network. For @theatlantic.com www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Nine people. Lifetime appointments. No elections, no reviews, no retirement age. Every other democracy looked at that design and said no thanks. actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Reminder, Trump promised gas would “drop like a rock” on May 1st, 2026.

The bill for this is absolutely astronomical and climbing exponentially. But nobody spends other people’s money like Trump and nobody seems to care about the national debt so put it on our national credit card so we can hand over an insolvent country to the millennials.

"DEI" now just means "anything the Right doesn't like."

The media has not stinted on Paxton coverage, which is why he's known nation-wide. What really makes people mad, I think, is that none of it matters to Republicans. "If only there was more coverage" usually means "Why aren't people as mad as I am" Because Republicans are different, sadly.

It‘s just insane to me that a sitting president has made MORE THAN A BILLION DOLLARS peddling fucking fairy dust with no intrinsic value beyond his stature and power AS president, and it’s not treated as the biggest corruption scandal in American history.

In a normal democratic country, Trump would be forced to resign after his disastrous war on Iran.

You can call this fraud, theft, or both. Because that's what it is.

As it turns out, yes! He did need to ask claude.

.. and impose ever-increasing mechanisms of social control. He didn't answer that question. In fact, he was not able to answer most questions colleagues asked in the Q&A. Someone asked him about Heidegger since he talked at length about phenomenology. He had no response. Did he need to ask Claude?

Insane self-blinding of the US. They are throwing away their investment in the ocean observation system and the benefits it provides. The only explanation I can think of: they don’t want the people to know what their fossil emissions are doing to our oceans. easternherald.com/2026/06/13/u...

500 ships and 11,000 stranded sailors. You have to admit that our dear leader has mad skills in wrecking everything. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/12/b...

There is something terribly wrong about an economy that produces its first trillionaire, but cannot provide health care for its people. Or one in which the richest handful of families have the combined wealth of almost forty percent of the rest of the country.

This is always one of the reddest of herrings: "We can't ever win Trump voters." Yes, if you mean "MAGA cultists." But independents, Latinos, even young men - all are defecting from Trump in droves. You only need to peel off a few of them.

The DOJ under Trump mainly serves two purposes: One is to persecute political enemies and the other is to rob the treasury and distribute the money to Trump’s allies and himself. Meanwhile MAGA crash out over needy people getting snap benefits and medicaid, and defend tax cuts for billionaires.

The Stillaguamish Tribe in Washington state has been buying land in its traditional territory and removing levees. The goal is to turn farmland into wetlands with the hopes of restoring Chinook salmon. n.pr/4tciGx0

“It was the most harebrained operation I’d seen in my 38 years with the U.S. government,” one career diplomat said about the second Trump administration's wholesale slashing of foreign aid. “Who knows how much damage was done.” (Published Dec. 2025)

But the tesla board and the stock market continues to just looooove his vision for fucking over humanity.

Someone was taken near 20th & Central tonight at 10 PM. Within 5 minutes, there were over 20 people on a call and even more people on foot in the area to respond.

So proud of Senator Tina Smith who is holding the Senate Floor right NOW to protect the Boundary Waters. Watch here www.youtube.com/live/omq2Jyg...

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

imagine arguing with your devout catholic grandma and shouting "the pope is WEAK on crime"

I'm old enough to remember way back when Republicans thought teenage pregnancy was a bad thing.

whomst among us hasn't looked at a pope and thought, hmpf, weak on nuclear weapons

Yes please keep attacking the POPE donnie. We shall see how this goes.

Lets gooooo.

Having mocked and insulted a billion Muslims on Tuesday, Trump attacked core beliefs of a billion Catholics today. And don’t forget his suggestion that any Jew who didn’t vote for him was an idiot. All in the days between the end of Ramadan, Passover, Easter and Orthodox Easter.

People will be closely studying how Hungary's opposition pulled off their win in such a pro-incumbent system. Important to note that the theme was corruption. Democrats need to get much better at calling out Trump's corruption.

Won’t someone think of the boaters is a refrain I often hear.

OH. MY. GOD. THIS IS THE MILKY WAY SHOT BY THE ARTEMIS II CREW. LOOK AT ALL THOSE STARS!!!!

UnitedHealth is the nation’s largest health insurance conglomerate. ProPublica obtained what is effectively the company’s internal playbook for limiting and cutting therapy costs. Here’s what we found. (Published Nov. 2024)
