The actions of Trump's administration are undermining governmental anti-fraud and accountability agencies.

Trump is shattering ethical standards and destroying agencies meant to protect people.

Listen to our co-president Rob Weissman testify in front of the Senate.

'Governance' has become a matter of threats and decrees straight from Donald Trump's id. Three examples. And meanwhile, Jeff Bezos destroys a crucial American institution.

Trump Mobile continues to accept $100 deposits for a golden phone even though it was supposed to be released LAST SEPTEMBER.

$100 bucks for not a damn thing, apparently.

Trump’s grift at the expense of his supporters strikes again.

As Trump goes increasingly berserk in all kinds of illegal and violent activities, the public will see more Republicans fearful of the 2026 elections break ranks. Soon there may be enough to support an impeachment resolution in the House and a trial in the Senate. -R

In light of the bombing of Venezuela, the Democratic Party should recall the words from its 1900 platform following the invasion of the Philippines: “No nation can long endure half republic and half empire. Imperialism abroad will lead quickly and inevitably to despotism at home.” -R

Trump has been accused of not knowing much about history. He just showed it. Does he remember Iraq? Does he remember Libya? Does he remember the fiasco in Afghanistan? Does he remember the war in Vietnam, during which time he was a draft dodger? Obviously not. -R
