EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…

Crypto industry alone is now up to an insane $55 million spent trying to defeat Sherrod Brown. www.politico.com/live-updates...

Jesus was mentioned 1,000 times in the bible. Donald Trump is mentioned 38,000 times in the Epstein Files. He’s more than just a “background character.”

A Senate subcommittee is probing Tether’s ties to Cantor Fitzgerald, the firm Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick supposedly divested from by handing it to his sons. Per Senator Blumenthal, Cantor’s 5% stake in Tether has skyrocketed from $600M to $10B since Trump returned to office.

Trump wants to make sure it’s as easy as possible for his friend Putin to bomb apartment buildings and kill children. He’s not just the worst president in history, he’s the most evil person to ever serve at the highest level of government. Vote out his weak Republican enablers.

By the Trump Admin’s own policy in the Anthropic case, Musk’s companies are a supply chain risk.

Notice that law enforcement aren't removing the guy who punched her. Also, last time I checked, free speech is allowed at public events, even if it's unpopular with the crowd.

Trump and Hegseth still haven't admitted that the US military massacred 120 Iranian schoolgirls and 26 teachers in a missile strike at the start of the war. At one point, Trump claimed Iran blew up its own school despite overwhelming evidence that the US did it. Lying murderers run our government.

Blumenthal: Tether is a crypto company that has a stablecoin known as USDT, and it is the major means of Iran avoiding and evading sanctions. What we’ve also exposed is that Cantor Fitzgerald has a major financial tie. Cantor Fitzgerald was owned by Howard Lutnick. It’s still run by his family.

Five-byline alert: 🚨 “.. In the last hours of Kristi Noem’s tenure as the homeland security secretary, her agency delivered a windfall to one of her political donors by buying five airplanes from the man’s firm at a substantial markup ..” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/10/04/u...

Hinojosa says the emails could shed light on Musk’s lucrative state contracts and tax incentives, campaign contributions, and what she describes as corruption surrounding his relationship with Abbott. Now she wants to know what was so “intimate and embarrassing.”

Interesting details on how the Iowa steel deal got done. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/28/u...

“Clearly the timing is not coincidental,” says Susan Collins. Is she talking about a defense contractor giving her campaign $150,000 after the head of her PAC promised she’d get them a big federal contract? Or is she talking about Trump getting elected and the FBI’s bribery probe going away?

How many people on here remember that Tom Barrack (now Trump's Ambassador to Turkey) was prosecuted (but acquitted) for being an agent of Tahnoun bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who has since played a key role in Trump's crypto corruption?

"Trump’s Biggest Con of All" The president’s alliance with Putin was never a hoax, as author David Corn documents. Meanwhile, the president’s oldest son just had part of his wedding funded by a Putin-aligned Russian oligarch. John Harwood writes for Zeteo:

Republicans never talk about the fraudsters Trump has pardoned. Philip Esformes, the largest health care fraudster in U.S. history at $1.3 billion, had his sentence commuted. Trump runs crypto scams.

Trump's foreign policy is not isolationist. On the contrary, his ideologues want to build an international empire run by far-right political movements who serve American crypto, mineral and tech companies, many with links to the president. Read more here: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Ossoff: Did you see this business about Don Jr.‘s wedding in the Bahamas? Where he received, apparently, a cash gift from a Russian oligarch connected to the Kremlin? This man, Kremlev, was apparently in China with Putin two days before he flew to the Bahamas for Don Jr.’s wedding…

Even beyond paying it back, I want to know why DOD was doing drone contracts with a guy who got a lavish gift from Putin's bagman.

Have you been wondering why Trump is against AI regulation, despite GOP concerns? Now we know. Details on Substack for you: open.substack.com/pub/thefrank...

Follow the CRYPTO MONEY. Funding this madness. White House "CRYPTO SUMMIT" August 16th. Since BTC ETH UP 40PCT!! CLARITY BILL gets voted down, they dont care. THE NEXT DAY SEC CFTC CHAIR AKINS pushes forward tokeniztion of stocks and crypto regs without congressional backing. All else distraction

A nonprofit group with ties to HHS Secretary RFK Jr. solicited payment from companies in exchange for access to top agency officials at an upcoming event. $300k gets you a speaking slot + private dinner with RFK Jr and Mehmet Oz www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Yes.

Rep. Al Green grills Bessent on Trump's memecoin 👇 GREEN: How do you justify legalizing these Ponzi schemes? BESSENT: I'm unfamiliar with this. I don't think it meets the criteria for a Ponzi scheme.

A former White House official who worked with Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump’s special envoys, was aghast at their lack of preparation for negotiations with Iran. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

The crypto industry has spent hundreds of millions of dollars lobbying for the Clarity Act, which they pitch as “clear rules of the road”. In reality, it’s industry capture, deregulation, and legitimization of the most brazen self-dealing in presidential history. Senators must vote no.

Newsletter: The supposedly “unprecedented” ethics restrictions in the industry-written Clarity Act exempt Trump’s crypto businesses and leave enforcement to his loyalists. Senators must vote no on cloture tomorrow.

Shame on any Democrat who votes for the abominable pro-crypto CLARITY Act. Call your senators and tell them to vote NO when it comes up for a crucial procedural vote tomorrow: (202) 224-3121.

Ossoff: "The system really is rigged, but he's not un-rigging it. He's re-rigging it for himself. So how do we unrig American politics? First we follow the money."

Isn’t it interesting though that Mike Johnson shrugs all this off as just provocative things said just to create a “persona online” from one of his ACTUAL NOMINEES FOR CONGRESS, but Hasan Piker, who isn’t running for anything, supposedly represents the entire Democratic Party.

Here is AOC and Mamdani laughing at the solemn 9/11 commemoration. Oh wait…

President Obama killed al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. Donald Trump invited the Taliban to hang out at Camp David on 9/11, freed 5,000 of their elite fighters from prison, and tried to kill Mike Pence. We should never forget that.

A Democrat should file a bill on Monday for everyone to get $5,000 checks right now to see if Mike Johnson, John Thune and congressional Republicans will advance and pass it. Call their bluff. Pass the bill.

Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office. Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor. Donors make huge profits while workers get shafted. Repeat. This is not a coincidence. It's a political-economic system that's been corrupted by design.

The Trump regime still hasn't taken responsibility for this atrocity in which 120 Iranian schoolchildren were killed. Trump has even blamed the Iranians for it. Because of the moral degradation of the Republican Party, the U.S. is bathed in shame.

🚨 Trump’s Justice Department is holding up European investigations into Jeffrey Epstein. Investigators in Poland, Norway and Latvia say requests for evidence and legal assistance have gone unanswered or unapproved as they pursue Epstein-related cases.

Why would we not want Europes help? Are we… protecting someone? www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...

Remarkable that the bone spurs serious enough to keep him out of Vietnam didn’t seem to hinder his supposed dash from Ground Zero on 9/11.

Everyone in the Trump administration, every Republican elected official, every Republican candidate, every Trump donor, should be asked what they think about Trump inventing heroic stories about himself on 9/11.

On this Labor Day, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.

Every 2 years, Republicans roll out culture wars & lies to US workers to secure their votes to acquire power to enrich themselves and their wealthy cronies during the other 724 days until the next election when they run the playbook again with Fox as their Ministry of Propaganda.

The RNC is desperately hosting its first-ever midterm convention, but no one wants to go. Counter-programming includes the Epstein Redacted Reading Room & Bookmobile. I’ll be on the ground in Texas to center and amplify the most important issue: the Epstein Files. youtu.be/-dkywz7yOWU?...

It’s the honor of my life to be on the ticket with this incredible woman and leader.

I still can’t believe that a nut job exclaimed, “They’re eating the cats, they’re eating the dogs” and millions of Americans said, “That’s the guy I want as president.”

Aren't these the same people who demand that every Democrat denounce a Twitch streamer?

I wonder if Iranian schoolgirls and wedding guests massacred by the Trump regime thought it was a "war."

Why does Susan Collins refuse to appear at any events with Trump or Vance? Isn’t she proud of her party’s president and VP, whose agenda she has supported completely on every single meaningful vote? Why is Susan hiding from her party leaders?
