President Trump’s spiteful defamation suit against the Pulitzer Prize Board may backfire, as the latter is now demanding Trump’s psychological records, prescription medication records, and tax returns in the discovery process. trib.al/LUCScTR

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.
Remember this.

Where are Somalis in the Epstein Files? Oh wait there aren't.
It was rich men, overwhelmingly white men, who raped girls with Epstein. Allegedly Daddy Trump was Epstein's closest friend for 10 years.
So where are the Epstein Files?
Hit MAGA back and don't let them demonize Somalis. Enough.
