Trump berates Zelensky, the leader of a democratic country courageously fighting Russian imperialism, while he allies himself with Putin, a dictator who started the bloodiest European war in 80 years.

Sorry, President Trump. We believe in democracy, not authoritarianism.

Donald Trump is not fit to be President of the United States of America. His presence in the Oval Office is a stain on the legacy of this country.

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

This is why Congressional Democrats should be breaking down the doors of whatever facility manages payments and seizing control of the federal treasury because people are going to die as a result of the budget they passed and the money they allocated not being distributed according to the law.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

The U.S. economy is headed for crash.

It’s manufactured so people accept lower wages and return to office work so that corporations can make even more money.

It will also cause people to lose their homes so private equity can buy them up for cash.

The poorest in America will suffer the most.
