I can’t even.

My God.
Soccer moms in Minnesota are risking their lives for their neighbours & WH Pool won’t even peep up for one of their own.

Disgusted.
You’ll notice that not one single reporter stood up for/defended CNN’s Kaitlan Collins as she was being verbally attacked by the orange felon in the bulldozed White House. They can’t even stand up for one of their own so there’s no hope of them ever standing up for democracy.

❤️ MELIA is looking for a home after her training. A home with no small kids. Teenagers are fine. If you have a dog, you can do a meet & greet with Melia. She's at K9 Rehab in Watertown, Connecticut.

Under my administration, we've stabilized our finances, balanced seven consecutive budgets, delivered 10 credit upgrades, and more.

I'm building off that toward fiscal responsibility and continuing to make progress toward full pension funding.

The Trump Administration claims the Treasury has authority over Venezuelan assets.

I asked Treasury Secretary Bessent directly what grants him this authority.

He seemed to have no idea that he controlled these assets, let alone the authority behind them.

Not one more penny for this brutality.

Congress needs to grow a spine and stand up to this regime.

If you are represented by Democrats — call them.

If you are represented by Republicans — call them. They need to hear from you too.

We pulled this one out of the paywall for today so more folks can read it
From 2019: Jeffrey Epstein liked to describe himself as a “science philanthropist,” and academics liked to take his money.

As more of Epstein’s enablers are uncovered, it’s worth asking why it was so easy for him to infiltrate science in the first place.

Traitorous:
A UAE investor secretly gave Trump $187 million and his top Middle East envoy $31 million. And then Trump gave that investor access to sensitive defense technology that broke decades of national security precedent.

Brazen, open corruption. And we shouldn't pretend it's normal.
