The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.

But I won't back down — and neither should you.

DOGE stole the phrase "waste, fraud, and abuse" from government regulations, where it is used to prohibit corrupt contracts, and inverted its meaning:

They use it to mean a leftist conspiracy imagined to engage in the financial corruption that DOGE is actually doing by self-dealing gov contracts

Federal judge busts the IRS in its illegal data-sharing scheme with DHS where IRS was giving ICE confidential info of undocumented immigrants WHO ARE PAYING THEIR TAXES to help ICE find & deport them.

My breakdown of this shocking news and the judge’s scathing order.

Elon Musk, the guy who did two Nazi salutes in public and has previously described himself as a “free speech absolutist,” thinks it should be a crime to “falsely” call someone a Nazi or a fascist.

California nurses are calling Trump’s student loan cap "an attack" on their profession.

The administration is planning to limit how much money people can borrow for nursing school, raising worries that the change could potentially worsen CA’s nursing shortage. bit.ly/4p5ifU9

Donald Trump and Republicans have been hellbent on ripping away abortion access since Day One.

Nominating Thomas Bell—who wants to investigate abortion clinics—for HHS Inspector General is the latest move in their extreme anti-abortion agenda. He cannot credibly serve.

Bloomberg has audio files of Trump envoy Steve Witkoff coaching the Russians how to pitch their extreme Ukraine demands to Trump as a peace plan.

Should rule him out of holding public office ever again. This entire exercise is thoroughly compromised.

The truth is that the sentence wasn’t inaccurate – it was removed because of legal fears. And that’s exactly the concern my lecture raises: when institutions start censoring themselves out of fear of those in power. /3

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Up to half of Americans have used a Buy Now, Pay Later loan through companies like Afterpay, Klarna, and Affirm.

But Trump's attacks on the CFPB limit our ability to monitor these lenders and protect consumers.

I'm pressing for answers on how these loans impact our economy.

Stunning development: Senators now confirm the Trump admin’s 28-point “peace plan” for Ukraine wasn’t a U.S. plan at all. It was a Russian wish list. Follow along. This is crazy. 1/

Trump's domestic Gestapo raided a job site, then handcuffed a US citizen born in Raleigh NC -- even after being shown the guy's REAL ID, which is only available to US citizens and LPRs

CBP+ICE will ignore your identifying documents when it suits their racism

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand.

The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

The Washington Post editorial board decided the Epstein files have “no public interest” before even seeing them. That’s a stunning position for any newsroom to take. Praising Clay Higgins as the lone ‘no’ vote, too? No wonder no one trusts legacy media. Absolutely disgusting.

SOOOOO Donald Trump took $116 million from at least 30 individuals or companies who then directly benefited from his actions.

So tell me again how this is OK.

A Chinese immigrant named Chaofeng Ge died in ICE custody. He was found hanging with his hands and feet tied behind him in the “hog tie” position. Unexplained deaths in ICE detention have exploded since Kristi Noem became secretary of DHS.
