Republicans snuck a provision into the rule for the CR that would preemptively surrender congressional authority to block tariffs.
When House Republicans vote for this rule today, they will also be voting to support Trump's tariffs and all the resulting damage to the US economy

The entire oval office meeting was a deliberate set up. A spectacle. The real audience for it was not the American people. It was for Putin and the global fascist movement.

Trump isn’t just rootin’ for Putin; he’s puttin’ out for Putin.
New: “It was a sickening spectacle: the man who tried to upend democracy bullying the man who is fighting for democracy.”

If you're wondering how Trump plans on getting away with everything that he's doing, look no further.

Trump is now blaming Ukraine for being invaded by Russia.
This is what you get when a rapist occupies the White House.

This is just sheer brazen criminality by DOJ. Adams gets federal corruption charges dropped not because there isn’t overwhelming evidence, but because he agrees to help Homan round up migrants. And Homan says the charges will be refiled if Adams doesn’t “come through.”

I am physically ill about their confirmations. I just can’t wrap my head around this…like at ALL 🤬🤬
With both RFK Jr and Gabbard confirmed, two people who rose to prominence spreading conspiracy theories about public health and national intelligence will now run the U.S. government agencies in charge of those areas. For someone studying these conspiracy theories for a decade... this is nauseating.

Trump curtailed protections around diversity and LGBTQ rights while he announced, today that he's signing an executive order creating "a task force to eradicate anti-Christian bias."
Anyone else see a Master Race project in the works, here?
