Meta will pocket $15 billion from one new tax break in Trump's budget.

"By the way, that is more than the federal government spends annually on childcare."

At least 75% of the men Trump illegally deported to El Salvador have no criminal records. These men have been abducted and sent to a hell-hole Salvadoran “prison” that is the the equivalent of a torture-laden concentration camp. No due process.

The Trump regime is paying El Salvador $6 million…

Elon Musk isn’t a genius—he’s a government-funded grifter under investigation. Every contract, every dollar, every scandal—it all connects.

Keep this: It’s a roadmap for every move Musk and DOGE make.

Senator Brian Schatz:

"If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don't like or that you disagree with by executive order, or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers."

This.
If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

Jimmy Carter pardoned his brother, Billy Carter.

George H.W. Bush pardoned his son, Neil Bush.

Bill Clinton pardoned his brother, Roger Clinton.

Donald Trump pardoned his son-in-law's father, Charles Kushner.

So tell me again, how is Biden setting precedent?

For most of recorded history, people have lived under despots and tyrants. But Americans maintain the belief that we can govern ourselves in freedom.

No matter the twists and turns of politics, we won't let fear defeat solidarity. My interview with @slate.bsky.social:

Did Matt Gaetz resign just to block the release of the House ethics report?

Yesss!! Make noise!!!!
Gaetz' backing out of the running for AG is a big sign that even in this new Trump era, your voice matters. When you see injustice or corruption, do not let anyone silence you. Get loud. Make noise. We won't win every battle, or even most, but you won't win any at all if you don't try.

Silver lining: Matt Gaetz is no longer a Congressman

Exactly!
Do you think if the report DIDNT say Matt Gaetz paid an underage girl for rape, the GOP would vote no on releasing?

Hmmm

Counter-argument from a Musk biographer: Musk is a mendacious, malevolent, transparently evil man—and surprisingly unsophisticated.

He doesn't have the welfare of the world at heart; he keeps his own venal ambitions in view at all times. He is as indifferent to others' suffering as is Donald Trump.
