The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

#Trump’s bulldozing the #EastWing to build his own Winter Palace, suing his own DOJ for $230M, and calling it progress. Meanwhile, Michael Wolff’s suing #Melania, the shadow banks are wobbling, and I’m writing through dental agony. #uspolitics #authoritarianism

The Ballroom Beneath the Rubble
Trump sanctions Russia, sues himself, and bulldozes the East Wing to build his own Winter Palace, all before my pain meds wore off.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.
The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.
At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

I was a skeptic about the import of the Epstein files.
But 3 invasions of cities, one military buildup outside Venezuela, a government shutdown, and so many other things meant to distract have me convinced whatever’s in there is the biggest presidential scandal in U.S. history.

California and New York paying taxes to this federal government in 2025 is tantamount to England and France paying taxes to Germany in 1940.
The money is going to be used *against* you.

Does this look weird to anyone? No sign of protests , no sign of any violence or danger. Just a beautiful day on the Riverwalk in Chicago. And this isn’t authoritarianism?

He stood in front of the world at the UN today, and every other word out of his mouth was a lie. I’ll say it again, we’ve not been here before. An American President who lies as he breathes. It’s a terrible place to be. Shame on the media & everyone who’s normalized his lying and/or doesn’t care.

Both of the co-founders of Turning Point USA died from things that were preventable, but which they mocked and urged this nation to ignore. Bill Montgomery was killed in 2020 by COVID and Charlie Kirk was killed in 2025 by gun violence.

The Trump administration’s goal of deporting millions is being operationalized by targeting people who appear Latino while waiting for the bus or working in low-wage jobs.
A shorter way to say this is racial profiling of low-income people. On Monday, the Supreme Court blessed this approach.

The theatre around RFK is great and all, but his holding a position as HSS Secretary is failed state behavior, and everyone who facilitated it should be drummed out of public life.
