The paperback edition of #OnFreedom is out today. It preserves a positive argument about how to build a better country and has been updated to account for what has happened in 2025.

Donald Trump deleted this from the government website.

Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

A year ago, I launched my book #OnFreedom in a war zone – in Kharkiv, Ukraine, 35 seconds from Russian artillery. Today, I'm launching the paperback in Portland, Oregon. Which is NOT a war zone. There is a difference in the real world between what's a war and what is not, and between truth and lies.

Hunter Biden was an attorney and a businessman, but the relatively small amount of money he made was automatically assumed to be corrupt and illegal, while the Trumps can sell out the entire country and it's fine.

Hypocrisy is an essential part of the brand.
This is disgusting. Blatant corruption at the highest level in plain sight and Oversight Chair Comer Pyle morphs into a combination of Mr. Magoo and Sgt. Schultz.

Starting out tonight's obvious things talk:
You should be more upset that billionaires are writing their private jets and yachts off on their taxes, than about someone being paid poverty wages to work 40 hours a week and still needing SNAP to eat.

Interestingly, one important thing about the law of defamation is that, to recover on a claim, you have to show damage to your reputation, which requires, at the very least, that you have a reputation that could somehow be damaged
Paul Ingrassia says he filed a $150 million defamation suit against Politico over he media outlet's report that he has been investigated for allegedly harassing a lower-ranking colleague

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."

Newsom is right. Trump is clearly in dangerous cognitive and physical decline.
Newsom: This president appears unhinged… seems listless… he seems, dare I say, in decline—cognitively, and… physically. These are just the rantings of someone who needs an intervention, needs some help, needs to be stabilized.
