What do they all have in common?

They've all spoken out about Ticketmaster ripping off fans.

But Trump just gave Ticketmaster the equivalent of a corporate pardon.

It's a betrayal of every fan in America.

Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.

Look, it's just purely a coincidence that Donald Trump started a war just days before the release of FBI 302s of interviews of a victims claiming he raped her when she was 13 years old.

The Day Million-Dollar Earners Get Richer by Stiffing Social Security High earners stop paying Social Security taxes once their income passes the cap, raising questions about the case for eliminating the payroll tax limit.

People making $1,000,000 a year are done paying into Social Security for the rest of 2026.

Does that sound fair to you?

It looks like the war on Iran is going about as poorly as the regime’s previous wars against Chicago, Minnesota and Los Angeles.

That's because MAGA is afraid of strong women.

Just like they are of minorities, immigrants, LGBTQ folks, diversity, equity, inclusiveness, other religions, doctors, scientists, books, libraries, textbooks, colleges, protesters, protest signs, Epstein files, feelings, emotions, and counseling.

A hallway in an apartment building. The light on the wall makes the wall look oddly textured, with horizontal lines crossing the length of the hallway. At the end of the corridor you can see my shadow.

Not cats, but I just found the lighting odd and appealing.

Biden: +336K jobs per month. Clinton: +242K. Trump 2: +16K β€” less than the MONTHLY average of every Democratic president since 1989.

The β€œgreatest economy ever” is dead last.
The data doesn’t lie.

Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.
