Trump Org Files Trademarks to Put the President’s Name Front and Center at America’s 250th In one filing submitted on Friday, a “Trump 250” image was trademarked to be used on a variety of merchandise.

From meme coins to our nation’s 250th Anniversary, Trump continues to enrich himself off the backs of working Americans.

Sources: Trump Is Dangerously Close to Sending Troops to Iran Advisers are urging the president ‘to go bigger to end this once and for all.’

"They’re telling him he has to go bigger to end this once and for all.” 🤦‍♀️ How big? Who's telling him? Military types? How do you 'end it once and for all'? This is delusional, without a 20-year occupation and a draft. What am I missing? Wish Congress would wake up.

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

NEW: Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer’s husband has been barred from entering Labor Department HQ after two female staffers accused him of sexual assault inside the building, according to NYT. One alleged incident was captured on security cameras and is now part of a criminal investigation.

I know this isn't the biggest takeaway, but Pam Bondi claiming that Dow is at "over 50,000 dollars" is pretty funny, as it shows how ignorant she is. The Dow Jones Industrial Average is indexed. The 50,000 doesn't represent dollars. And if I did, the entire Dow couldn't afford a single Land Rover.

Allowing ICE in hospitals is a public health catastrophe in the making Allowing ICE to conduct raids in hospitals and medical clinics is not only cruel; it is a public health catastrophe in the making, writes Eric Reinhart.

Dems in Congress need to use their "shut down power" to keep ICE out of hospitals and medical facilities, unless they themselves are having a medical emergency.

Call your senators, representative. Forward this article to them.

DHS said that the woman CBP shot in the chest in Portland was “involved” in a gang shooting.

Her ~involvement~ was that suspected gang members sexually assaulted and robbed her.

when they say that everyone should have a right to carry a weapon in public they mean only loyal Republicans have a right to carry a weapon in public. if you don't agree them politically and you carry a weapon then that's justification for them to shoot you dead.

Trump is now targeting community grocery stores in Minnesota alleging food stamp abuse.

Sending pictures of these stores to his followers is irresponsible and dangerous.

Trump’s Own Mortgages Match His Description of Mortgage Fraud, Records Reveal The Trump administration has argued that Fed board member Lisa Cook may have committed mortgage fraud by declaring more than one primary residence on her loans. We found Trump once did the very thing ...

In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence.

In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home.

CDC to Fund Controversial Study in West Africa on Infant Hepatitis B Vaccines The study prompted swift outcry from scientists in the U.S. who say it’s “unethical.”

This is not the first time RFK Jr or his fellow anti-vax travelers conducted a study they knew would harm or kill children in low-income countries. It is a dehumanizing, colonialist model of manufacturing evidence: sacrificing foreign kids for political pseudoscience.
