Whitehouse on Trump’s attacks on Leonard Leo: This whole thing is hysterical…

The fact that Trump is furious with him right now may signal a dawning realization: that he actually might not have truly chosen his Supreme Court appointees.

Trump is steering taxpayer funds to Palantir, founded by another South African billionaire Peter Thiel (who bankrolled Vance’s rise), to create a database on us all.

It's weird how many self-proclaimed "Christian conservatives" lie and spin so brazenly.

Seems kinda sinful.
WELKER: In 2021, you cited the CBO. So do you only believe the CBO when a Democrat is president?

MIKE JOHNSON: No. This is very easy to explain. The CBO sometimes gets projections correct...but they always underestimate the growth that will be brought about by tax cuts and reductions in regulations

WATCH: “It was announced as a done deal.”

This @moreperfectunion.bsky.social piece on how Musk’s XAI was forced on MEMPHIS by their own Chamber (Ted Townsend) and the mayor and other leaders, without permits, and is now poisoning their air, is not to be missed.

Louis DeJoy may be gone, but the Post Office is still under attack by corporate interests and privatizers.

Millions of Americans rely daily on USPS's affordable rates and universal service.

We must protect our public Postal Service.
Let's not forget the fact that Trump nominated a FedEx board member to be postmaster general.

After FedEx donated $1 million to his inaugural fund.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Mark Pocan just blew the lid off a MAGA cover-up: FOUR Republican Senators switched their votes to confirm Trump’s cabinet after their families got death threats from MAGA lunatics. That’s not democracy. It’s terrorism - and it’s infecting the GOP from inside.

Aside from cutting health care for the elderly & poor, the Republican budget steers $160 BILLION to enrich private prisons + quadruple the size of Trump’s American Gestapo ICE — while making them immune from prosecution.

TLDR: You are not alarmed enough.
