The so-called president of the United States is a massive money launderer and cut off by the bank that discovered it. Yet the story barely registers with the legacy media. What a disgrace.

Wolfers: For nine out of the last 10 presidencies, if you’d said, “How much should we blame the president for what’s going on with the economy right now?” I would have said that the president is just one factor among many. That’s what I would have said nine out of 10 times. This is the 10th time.

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky: You can’t say that you want to make sure sex offenders and sex traffickers are behind bars and then vote for him. Every vote for Blanche is really a vote against survivors. If Thom Tillis wants to call, I’m happy to talk to him. We’ve been trying to get in touch

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has the constitutional authority to temporarily appoint someone to fill Mitch McConnell’s seat. If GOP lawmakers want to challenge that, they can do so. This will be the first big test to see whether Beshear really is presidential material. I hope he passes the test.

Politicians usually show up at the border to demonize & fear-monger. We just drove 750 miles from El Paso to the Valley to show off the beauty & potential of our border communities. We’re showing up for Texans along the border who've been left behind by both political parties.

NEWS: Epstein survivors just gave Todd Blanche a failing grade after their meeting. "Condescending." "Gaslighting." No plan to go after anyone beyond Epstein and Maxwell. And Sen. Tillis's reaction? Somehow worse.

ICE is a lawless Gestappo that exists purely to murder immigrants and terrorize Americans. Ask every elected official why they don't support Abolishing ICE. This is a litmus test issue moving forward. No half-assed answers. Tell us straight.
