Every nazi movement needs a youth wing.
Happening now: Texas leaders announcing a rollout of a statewide program to put TPUSA chapters in high schools and colleges across the state. Gov. Abbott adds that schools that stand in the way should be reported to the Texas Education Agency.

Jesus Christ, these people are both unbelievably petty and obsessed.
Yet somehow they convince gullible voters that it's *Democrats* who are fixated on this issue.
Democrats aren't the ones staying up at night because a stranger changed her name. Jesus.

If the eventual outcome of this is non-partisan redistricting groups everywhere (a massive win long term) then I hope the lesson the Dem leadership takes is not "Look, compromise!" but rather that only aggressive, targeted politics got the other side to fold.

Under Biden, the IRS launched a program for people to file their taxes FOR FREE (finally!)
Well, Trump ended it because TurboTax donated $1 million to him. This White House is just one big grift while the rest of us pay more for everything.

The IRS is reportedly not offering its Direct File program next year. Here’s a look back at how TurboTax owner Intuit spent two decades fighting to prevent Americans from filing their taxes online for free:

Inside TurboTax’s 20-Year Fight to Stop Americans From Filing Their Taxes for Free
Using lobbying, the revolving door and “dark pattern” customer tricks, Intuit fended off the government’s attempts to make tax filing free and easy, and created its multi-billion-dollar franchise.

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Ok Democrats: this is the clip you play over, and over, and over again in your campaign ads next year.
Leavitt: At this moment in time, the ballroom is really the president's main priority.

NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.
