Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate.

"An individual associated with foreign intelligence and a person close to Donald Trump."

Only one? I'm surprised there haven't been more, but it's possible others haven't been caught yet.

The Guardian has a rough outline of what the Tulsi whistleblower complaint is about: NSA found someone close to Trump in contact with foreign intelligence, and rather than doing something about that, Tulsi brought the report to Susie Wiles.

Whistleblower says that Tulsi Gabbard blocked agency from sharing report and delivered it to White House chief of staff

The same people who said Trump wasn’t a racist said he would be good for the economy.

This Trump economy is a disaster.

Trump has done a hatchet job on the U.S. Consumer Finance Protection Bureau (CFPB). While courts have upheld its ability to draw funds from the Fed, its operations are seriously scaled back.

When CFPB is not strong, it hurts US consumers!

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.”

What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Trump referring to the first Black President and First Lady in the history of the USA as apes is not a distraction. It is a major news story once again emphasizing how fundamental racism is to this administration and the Republican Party and conservative movement.

And right now media is ignoring.

If ICE yanks us out of line to vote, demands ID, and insists our real ID is FAKE, we'll likely be sufficiently delayed enough from voting altogether!

And if they're masked, who can we sue after the fact?!!

When the U.S. Supreme Court said that you could detain people based on their race, their accent, or the language they spoke… there is nothing to preclude ICE from doing that while you’re standing in line getting ready to cast a ballot.

I couldn’t even imagine my commanding officer pressuring me to go see a movie about the president’s wife while serving in the Marines. But this is Pete Hegseth’s DOD, where partisan politics continues to be pushed on troops who just want to do their jobs while serving America.

Calling Harvard “woke” is a dog whistle, not an operational critique. If the Pentagon were ending programs because they failed security vetting, produced weak officers or conflicted with readiness needs, that would be one thing. This is just optics to feed their salivating disgusting cult.
