Trump now profits from 22 foreign developments, several tied to gov land or state-linked partners. That gives foreign officials leverage over him. Our assessment warns when executive decisions overlap with private revenue streams, democratic checks weaken.

One third of the country supported the January 6 2021 attempted take over the government & are the same ones who voted him back in. They are traitors in my book.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

GOP self-dealing: Haven't Graham, Tuberville, Hawley, Blackburn et al haven't hurt taxpayers enough?💰💰💰
Eight Senators snuck in a MILLION-DOLLAR PAYOUT for themselves for being investigated for their possible involvement in the January 6th insurrection.

There is no money for healthcare, but there is money for a payout to Senators? This is fucken 🐂 💩!

Holy shit! When the Epstein files are finally released, they’re going to show that Donald Trump really is the slimeball pedophile that we all knew he was!!!

Today's MAGA/GOP talking point is that this email is "a distraction." 🙃 #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles
Happy discharge petition day to all who celebrate...

🚨 NEW: ADP report: U.S. LOST an average of 11,000 jobs per week in October 2025.

Let’s compare, shall we:

In 2024, the economy ADDED about 2.2 million jobs in 2024 — an average monthly GAIN of 186,000.

From steady climb to sudden slide.

There's only one reason DJT would pardon Maxwell. He's guilty. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles
Ghislaine Maxwell is getting special treatment and asking for President Trump to commute her sentence. That’s unacceptable and we will stop this.

Support farmers markets, artists, neighborhood businesses. Use cash when you can. Spent locally, our $ has a multiplier effect.

We're coming up on the hundred days mark for Mike Johnson's shutdown of the House of Representatives.

Feels like Democrats ought to mark the occasion with an event of some kind. Maybe an Epstein Files theme or something?

Cruelty really is the point. Who else would go to court begging for permission to starve their own citizens? Meanwhile, they send $40 billion to Argentina, buying two private jets for ICE “Barbie,” and Trump has already burned through $1 trillion in less than two months.
