Speaking of Fox hosts and learning new information, I remember learning perennial GOP loser Kari Lake's entire Gen Z political strategy:

"Fuck them. They're 20-year-dopes."

We can't afford Medicaid.

We can't afford Medicare.

We can't afford SNAP.

We can't afford to feed kids at school.

But we can afford a 90,000 sqft expansion at the white house.

They're just gonna keep stepping up the waste, while robbing us on all the levels.

Trump almost certainly knew that Epstein was hunting girls at Mar-a-Lago. The club confirmed he'd been banned in 2007 and "a source" said it was because he had a habit of luring girls from the spa including the daughter of a member who he tried to assault.

We know this is not true and we know it because, among other cases, they detained a Mexican tourist, a DACA recipient, and even a 15 year old there, all without final orders of removal.
DeSantis says all Alligator Alcatraz detainees have removal orders. Is that true?
Immigration attorneys with clients at the site say multiple cases involve people without final removal orders.

Rand Paul: "We can't discourage greedy and corrupt people from being president by no longer letting them be greedy and corrupt while being president. Goodness, this might stop them from violating term limits expressly stated in the Constitution!"
Rand Paul: "If Donald Trump were the next president -- some say he might run for a third term -- he would be forced to divest everything ... I don't think we want to discourage people like that from holding office."

Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome.

🧵: If you're wondering just how intrusive the Trump admin's demands of Harvard were, consider this one: "Every department or field found to lack viewpoint diversity must be reformed by hiring a critical mass of new faculty within that department or field who will provide viewpoint diversity."

it's been 17 days since a reporter was added to a Signal group chat where our government officials were sharing war plans.

And nobody has been fired...

Republicans just passed a budget that guts Medicaid, SNAP, veterans’ benefits, and free school lunches.

They swore they'd fix the economy—but this sure as hell ain’t it.

President Trump's popular vote victory was among the narrowest in modern U.S. history; it exceeds only the two elections (of Bush in 2000 and himself in 2016) in which the loser of the popular vote became the president.
Pam Bondi brazenly lies, tells Trump that he was "overwhelmingly elected by the biggest majority" and says "you have the authority to determine how the money of this country will be spent."

It makes it really damn difficult, though.
Too many people don’t have a passport. Why wouldn’t a marriage certificate suffice? Why should women have to carry a copy of their birth certificate with them to register to vote when men don’t have to?
You done fucked up.

⚠️ The SAVE Act forces voters to jump through hoops if their name differs from their birth certificate. Think: marriage, divorce, or gender transition. No passport? No updated docs? You’re barred from voting. This isn’t security—it’s suppression. /2 #MomSky
