NEW: A Florida cybersecurity company promised to help clients recover data from ransomware attackers. In a 2019 story, we found the company was making secret payments to hackers and pocketing hefty fees from clients. The CEO was just indicted for fraud.

This is how you write a headline.

Good times for Ken Paxton and Roger Marshall

Watch "Congress, the Constitution, and an Unchecked Supreme Court" to learn more about efforts to rein in the Supreme Court.

Legal experts agree: It's time for Supreme Court term limits. Staggered 18-year terms would ensure regular turnover on the bench while preserving judicial independence.

The Tate brothers are rapists and human traffickers. What took so long?

Donald Trump is spending his evening spewing lies from six years ago instead of lowering costs for you right now.

If it’s safe enough to mail your tax refund, your Social Security check, your prescriptions, your passport, etc.… it’s safe enough to mail your ballot. The double standard was never about security. It’s about who they’re scared will actually show up. #LoserTrumpsElectionLies

NEW The Justice Department is threatening to prosecute election officials across the country for failing to remove noncitizens from their voter rolls, an escalation of the Trump administration's attempts to prosecute election fraud, according to letters I obtained with Andy Mannix @propublica.org 🧵

Election experts are raising serious red flags after learning that Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton voted in six elections while registered at an address where he does not live. Doing this is a second-degree felony punishable by a fine up to $10,000 and up to 20 years in prison. But it's Texas.🤷‍♀️

Great job on MSNow. Totally agree with you. For every time Trump says Dems are communists, Dems MUST come back at them saying GOP are fascists. It's that simple. The midterms are slipping away if we don't fight back.

Elon Musk, the literal richest man on the planet–the world’s first TRILLIONAIRE–is paying the SAME amount in Social Security taxes as an electrician who makes $185,000 a year.   That's outrageous.    We need to scrap the cap so the richest people in the world pay their fair share.

We uncovered how he hijacked America 250 – watch to see how. youtu.be/-ydXJ3HhXy0?...

Well that’s simply wire fraud.

celebrating the good parts of america today. if you don’t think there are any good parts, just look to all the stuff the fascists are desperate to stifle

Don't want to speak ill of the dead, so getting this Mitch McConnell take out now. He saw Trump with complete clarity, as a danger to America, but protected him anyway. Perhaps more than anyone, he had the power to end Trumpism, but chose party over country. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/jan-6-and-...

Remember: The real freeloaders in this country are the rich — not the poor or immigrants or any other group of people vilified as scapegoats. The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. The United States literally has yacht and private jet tax deductions. Hello?

Happy 100th birthday, Mel Brooks! Here’s some great advice he gave me back he was a wee lad of 95. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

Thank you @katiephang.bsky.social and @meidastouch.com 🤩🤩 You’re making America great again.

The Supreme Court today said: ✅ Cancer from pesticides? Sue yourself ✅ Fleeing danger? Not our problem ✅ Guns in public places..fine These 6 unelected extremists are out of control and have DESTROYED this court. Expand it or lose everything. #USDemocracy #Pinks newrepublic.com/post/212399/...

The mass warrantless surveillance law FISA Section 702 has expired. They'll try to tell you the sky is falling. Don't believe them! Instead, tell your reps: NO spying on Americans without a warrant. Period.

I thought this was on Point….

“And if we want to talk about kitchen-table issues, you can make that part of it: The reason that you can't afford your electricity is because of the corruption. The reason that you can't afford health insurance is because of the corruption.” Dems need to beat that drum: “Corruption! Corruption!”

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

The amount of money in Musk's bank account is not a measure of his genius or even the "value" of his companies. It is rather a measure of the gullibility of investors and the greed of the industry that is designed to harness that to fuel their own wealth creation.

The most dangerous thing about AI is not that the machines might one day think. It is that we are being trained, by men with enormous financial gains riding on our acquiescence, to stop thinking for ourselves.

SEN. CASSIDY: “.. the worst foreign policy blunder in decades.”

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

Bye-bye coal — solar tops coal in U.S., and more to come. Clean costs less.

I don't know why Trump's so upset. He's usually so into redacting his name.

The FBI and DOJ refuse to answer these records requests about FBI Director Kash Patel’s conduct and alleged abuse of taxpayer dollars – so we’re suing. We will make sure this public official answers to the American people.

Forget celebrating the world's first trillionaire. It's the culmination of a failing political and economic system that rewards the richest and endangers nearly everyone else.

The "journalism" covering this Space X IPO may just be the clowniest bullshit I've ever seen. the IPO is a pile of fraud slop being sold by a loopy white supremacist pretending to be an engineer but the press coverage is total fan fiction for LinkedIn entrepreneurial hashtag hustle types

not polite to call some people stupid, but it is genuinely a party of stupid people

Pretty ironic that for all the things that Mike Johnson hasn't seen & doesn't know, the one thing he "knows instinctively" is 100% completely false.

BREAKING: Ken Paxton’s own lawyer just endorsed James Talarico: “I defended Ken Paxton for years in the impeachment trial and in state criminal cases. But in my view, I think Ken has lost sight of his core mission, which is to represent the people of Texas.  That’s why I'm supporting you.”

1/ Richard Uihlein made his fortune selling boxes. Now he funds a fake news network that FOIAs your voter file, fuses it with your court and health records, then routes the file to GOP operatives. His name is on all of this. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
