On the bright side, Argentina’s stock market is doing great today after Trump gave them $40 billion. Meanwhile, Americans are expected to go hungry in just a few days.

FEC records show Elizabeth Fago donated $1M to Trump's super PAC in April.

What happened next?

Three weeks later Trump pardoned her son, a nursing home executive who pleaded guilty to withholding millions from his workers' paychecks (while buying a luxury yacht).

Everything is for sale.

No way older grey Epstein could go into a mall, or a fitness club, and entice children to go with him - only a posh sounding woman can do the enticing, fishing, and entrapment. This is Maxwell - she is NOT and never HAS been, a victim. She is just as evil and guilty, if not more so.

Trump has scrapped the Labor Department's only job training program for low-income seniors, just after his Big Ugly Bill imposed new hurdles for nearly 9 million Medicaid recipients between the ages of 50 and 64.

Trump wants to cut the National Institutes of Health budget by 40%.

But even a 10% cut would prevent an estimated 30 new medications from reaching the market over the next 30 years.

Well, if Trump really wants to deny it, there’s a simple solution: release all the files. Instead of filing billion-dollar lawsuits and having a thousand federal employees comb through a 100,000-page document looking for his name, he could just call for full transparency.

We need a new generation of leaders who are the voices of democracy, freedom, social justice, & the rule of law. 

A new generation that gives meaning to the “we” in “we the people.”

Instead of fretting over Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party should embrace him as the future.

Nothing like a little “creative accounting” to push a $3.3 trillion tax cut for the rich. Republicans are using an accounting gimmick to make it look like their tax plan doesn’t add to the deficit. Can’t pass it honestly? Just cook the books.

“Is there any sign of life?”
“Have we heard a heartbeat?”
“Does she feel any kicking?”
“We don’t have the equipment to do that.”

That’s the full 911 audio from a nurse inside an ICE detention center near Denver, calling for help as a four-months-pregnant woman bled and cried out in pain.

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this?

Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids.

She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms.

Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen.

The moral squalor of Trump has brought us back to the basics — especially understanding the importance of checks and balances and separation of powers.

Both the Republican-controlled Congress and conservative Supreme Court Seem hellbent on abdicating their duties to a tyrant.

Reject Trump & Dudek's tyrannical shakedown. It's time to IMPEACH.
Text SIGN PLBDEP to 50409 — How many impeachable misdemeanours will it take for you to impeach Trump and Dudek? We have a rule of law and federal agencies and contracts are not to be capriciously withdrawn because the president took personal offense at a governor. The way Trump spoke to Maine's Governor Mills at a group of governors sounded like a Mafia shakedown. Afterwards, revenge and retaliation began: "Emails show that the Social Security Administration canceled contracts with the state of Maine as political payback against its Democratic governor. According to emails obtained by Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.), the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, Social Security staff informed Dudek that canceling the contracts “would result in improper payments and potential for identity theft.” Dudek told his staff to go for it. “Please cancel the contracts. While our improper payments will go up, and fraudsters may compromise identities, no money will go from the public trust to a petulant child,” Dudek wrote." This is tyranny. If you don't stand up for the rule of law now, any governor can be next. Congress has allowed Trump to usurp its power of appropriations too long. I ask you to conduct oversight, investigate and censure presidential overreach, overturn the emergency declarations and tariffs, and bring and try charges of impeachment against Trump, Dudek, and all involved in Signalgate. Please reply in writing to let me know whether you intend to honor your oath to uphold and defend the constitution. By not blocking Trump's illegal actions you betray your oath.

At DOJ, we used to call these “for profit prisons” and when BOP or a state used them, those inmates were still considered to be in the custody of that prison system for relevant legal purposes. There is no reason El Salvadoran terror prison should be any different.
And when are we going to start talking about the fact that the United States is paying El Salvador to use the prison!
