NEW: During a rally just now, Trump invited Iran to “take out Los Angeles and San Diego,” saying it would be a “small price to pay.”

This, my friends, is gaslighting. Congress is the top three or four of all time only on abdicating its responsibilities. 

Booker nailed it.

By this logic, Trump should be first in line for arrest.

Okay everyone. Here’s the YouTube interview with @jimmykimmel.com and @jamestalarico.bsky.social You know what to do. Watch it. Share it. Donate. Bury them. youtu.be/WLDE9LrGpNk?...

Even the crickets were embarrassed.

Frank Kendall to Kaitlan Collins: "In a word, it's dysfunctional. The secretary, and I've worked with and had a chance to work for maybe a dozen secretaries of defense, he's doing active harm to the Department of Defense. It's not passive. It's active harm."

I dunno, I just think “the president can’t seem to stay awake for more than 10 minutes” should be a bigger story.

SMACKDOWN! AG Bonta brilliantly explains why the Paramount/Warners mega-merger violates anti-trust law & why he will not be swayed until that is addressed Paramount’s PR surge is backfiring

I've never seen anything like this. The Trump admin just granted preliminary approval of a federal bank charter to the family's crypto firm World Liberty Financial. Remember: Trump raked in almost $800 million from WLF last year. No president has used their power to profit the way Trump has.

Kennedy Center Board, composed of Trump acolytes, inviting a showdown with Judge Cooper. They vote to add on the building, inscribed, “restored and renovated by Pres Donald J. Trump” below JFK. See you in court!

He serves in the branch that the Constitution specifically charges with the duty of removing the President for criming.

NORMAL PEOPLE: Every single one of these assholes told a dumb brazen lie to our faces and should never be trusted again. CORPORATE MEDIA: Thank you for coming back to chat with us, sir!

Once again the @nytimes.com feels compelled to insert a “critics say” in front of an indisputable fact. This addiction to Both Sides Always will serves neither journalism nor the larger world, and is part of the devaluation of reality that has led us to very bad places.

This.

NEW: A nonprofit warned Congress that one of the CIA documents released during Trump's recent speech denigrating U.S. elections may have been created specifically to bolster false claims of Chinese interference in the 2020 election. The group is now calling for a "thorough" investigation.

Donald Trump still has absolutely no idea what he was trying to do, how he was going to do it, why he wasn't able to do it, or what he's going to do next to try to fix what he has no idea he broke. He's a delusional, crackbrained, and deranged moron. It's just that simple.

Looks Like Cheating to Win an Election…..

This is random, but I wanted to extend my gratitude to Democratic Congresswoman Joyce Beatty for her tireless effort in protecting the Kennedy Center from being fully destroyed by a vindictive jealous petty classless criminal. 💙👊

Peter Carr’s Senate testimony today laid out the danger of Todd Blanche’s firings of career public servants: they corrode independent law enforcement and put politics ahead of the facts and the law.

I am the super manly man in this race, and if anyone asks me a question I don't like I will run away with my hands over my ears saying "Nanana I can't hear you nanana"

Oh, so the suspect was a white guy then.

Maine Senator @senangusking.bsky.social: There is a serious threat to our elections in 2026 — and to democracy itself — but it’s not the Chinese, Venezuela, noncitizens voting or mail-in ballots. It’s Donald J. Trump. www.ms.now/opinion/trum...

Today I made an unannounced visit to ICE’s facility in Scarborough, Maine. What I heard was unacceptable: no body cameras, no training, and no accountability. Johan Guerrero should be alive. Congress must act. Abolish ICE. End qualified immunity.

The fact that VP JD Vance and Richard Grenell went to Romania—on behalf of the Trump Administration— to advocate for Andrew and Tristan Tate, who by all accounts, were rapists running a coercive sex ring, then permitted them to come to Florida, should be a crazy, crazy scandal.

You might have to consider the possibility that Trump lied. I know, hard to believe that might be case.

Remember when Trump said he would cut credit card interest rates down to 10%? It's been nearly two years since he made that promise — and big banks are still making billions while charging rates nearly triple that. Another Trump lie.

Hakeem Jeffries should demand equal time and directly respond to Trump's lies about the election tonight, and tell us all what we're doing to STOP Trump from stealing this thing.

We already had a deal with Canada, in which it paid to build the bridge and would recoup the tolls until they were made whole. Now Trump is holding up the bridge opening as leverage to coerce more. Mob boss move. No wonder the world hates us. www.freep.com/story/news/p...

Nothing in the agency cases held that Trump could simply shut down an agency of Congress’s creation. That’s what he has done with the election Assistance commission which now lacks commissioners to act. It’s taking the courts cases to the ultimate conclusion and just disabling an important agency.

Trump officials came to Ohio in June to highlight investigations of people suspected of cheating Medicaid out of tens of millions, but they didn't mention corporations accused of up-charging the state’s system by a quarter-billion dollars in a single year. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/07/10/f...

Trump fires all remaining election commissioners “disabling the only federal agency dedicated solely to election administration”. www.votebeat.org/national/202...

The Great American State Fair was a diversion, America's 250th birthday was hijacked, and even the fireworks and speech - mostly on July 5th, was a diversion. What would cause such giant diversions? The fact that they're engaged in the largest wealth transfer in history, robbing the country blind.

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Trump: widening inequality and the unchecked power of billionaires. There's no "center" anymore between a takeover of the government by oligarchs and true freedom. Dems need to learn this.

One year ago.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

How do you know the Iran negotiations are going poorly? Because JD Vance says one thing, Iranian negotiators say another, and Trump tweets about algae in the reflecting pool.

101 former judges have asked New York disciplinary authorities to investigate Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, alleging ethics violations tied to his conduct at DOJ. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

I would like a side-by-side account of the cost of: the Iran war, the reflecting pool, the ballroom, the Qatari plane, the WWE fight; DOJ settlement payoffs (like to Ashli Babbitt) and any other vanity projects I'm missing; compared with all of the "waste and fraud" supposedly saved by the DOGE cuts
