One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.
The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.
But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

Throughout his second term, President Trump has visited his golf courses 38 times. Just one high-end golf weekend can cost American taxpayers around $3.4 million.
How much is Trump's leisure costing taxpayers?
Since returning to the White House on January 20, President Donald Trump has spent a significant amount of time on the golf course, and American taxpayers are feeling the pinch.

Now from Öztürk’s ACLU lawyer Esha Bhandari:
“Rümeysa Öztürk’s case is unprecedented and shocking. She has been held behind bars for six weeks while her health deteriorates for writing an op-ed.”

BREAKING: Federal judge finds, in multistate lawsuit, that Trump's EO targeting three entities — Institute of Musuem and Library Services, Minority Business Development Agency, and Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service — likely violates the APA, Take Care Clause, and separation of powers.
![Accordingly, because IMLS, MBDA, and FMCS have not provided a rational connection between the sweeping actions they have taken and the vague, conclusory justifications they have provided, the Court finds that the States have established a strong likelihood of success on their arbitrary and capricious claims. Ohio, 603 U.S. at 292. Further, the Court finds that the States have illustrated a strong likelihood of success on their claims that IMLS, MBDA, and FMCS acted arbitrarily and
capriciously in failing to consider reliance interests. Regents, 591 U.S. at 30; see also Smiley v. Citibank (S. Dakota), N.A., 517 U.S. 735, 742 (1996) (citations omitted)

Commerce secretary Howard Lutnick suggested this week that only "fraudsters" would complain about missing a monthly Social Security check, and that most people wouldn't mind if the government simply skipped a payment.
Seniors won't complain if they miss a Social Security check, Lutnick says
More than 70 million Americans get a Social Security benefit every month, and for many, those checks are their only income.
