Remember: The GOPโ€™s nonsensical culture wars are meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder. [Cartoon by Jace Avery]

This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode deficits

3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.

Please read, this is important. Sorry itโ€™s long.

Trumpโ€™s move to have Elon Musk step aside wasnโ€™t a retreat. It was a distraction. With Muskโ€™s name out of the headlines, many assumed the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had quietly ended. It hasnโ€™t. Itโ€™s just changed hands.

When Trump...

-Holds a private dinner for his crypto coin buyersย 
-Promotes Teslas on the White House driveway on behalf of a multibillionaire who spent $277M backing him
-Uses state visits to advance his hotel business

It's corruption, plain and simple.

Exclusive: Trumpโ€™s Losing the Latino Voters He Won in โ€™24 New poll shows real cracks in the presidentโ€™s backingโ€”and opportunities for Democrats.

@adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social: "Donald Trump's support among Latino voters, including those who voted for him in 2024, is fracturing, a new poll shared exclusively with The Bulwark found."

U.S. AG Pam Bondi Sold More than $1 Million in Trump Media Stock the Day Trump Announced Sweeping Tariffs Disclosure forms show that Bondi sold between $1 million and $5 million worth of shares on April 2. That day, after the market closed, Trumpโ€™s โ€œLiberation Dayโ€ press conference sent the market tumblin...

Attorney General Pam Bondi reportedly sold over $1 million worth of shares in Trumpโ€™s media company on the day that he announced tariffs that led to a huge dip in the stock market, according to financial disclosures.

That raises serious ethics questions.

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is devastating and must end. Israeli authorities must allow aid to reach Palestinian civilians, and we must continue working towards a lasting ceasefire that includes the safe return of all remaining hostages.

We strongly advise the public not to do this, itโ€™s unsafe. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. posted photos of himself and his grandkids swimming in Rock Creek, a Washington waterway so contaminated with sewage runoff that swimming has been banned citywide for over 50 years.

In New York, ICE detained a busload of farmworkers that were actively involved in a union drive.

In Washington state, ICE dragged a farmworkersโ€™ rights activist and leader out of his car to detain him.

Be warned: attacking unions is a hallmark of fascism.

In space, Venus flanks Earth on the left, with a hellfire greenhouse effect. Mars on the right, which long ago had running water. Today, it's bone dry. Something bad happened on each planet.

Seems like the wrong time to limit the Nationโ€™s capacity to conduct climate research.

Trump is now attempting to overturn the conviction of a Colorado clerk who tampered with voting machines in a failed effort to prove the 2020 election was rigged against him.

Trump is demanding that DOGE investigate polls after his favorability numbers tanked so badly that even Fox News couldnโ€™t spin them to look good. Heโ€™s calling it all โ€œfraud.โ€ Seems like a very โ€œefficientโ€ use of tax dollars.

For nearly 60 days, Israel has blocked food from Gaza. Palestinians struggle to feed their families For nearly 60 days, no food, fuel, medicine or other item has entered the Gaza Strip, blocked by Israel.

For nearly 60 days, no food, fuel, medicine or other items has entered the Gaza Strip, blocked by Israel.

Aid groups are running out of food to distribute. Markets are nearly bare.

Palestinian families are left struggling to feed their children.

Tax ppl can speak to the statutory and regulatory questions. But as a 1st Amendment person, I can tell you that this is wildly lawless as a constitutional matter. Govt subsidies & exemptions are not free-for-alls to impose viewpoint based restrictions. Plus this is a nesting doll of violations - 1/2

Communities are organizing ICE patrols using radios and megaphonesโ€”but what we really need is an ICE alert website where people can share details of ICE activity in real time to help protect and inform one another.

This country is becoming unrecognizable. What weโ€™re seeing is state-funded fear. Weโ€™ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasnโ€™t a case involving masked ICE agentsโ€”but thatโ€™s happening too.

They donโ€™t care.

They donโ€™t care that the Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring an innocent man home to his family.

They donโ€™t care.

They think itโ€™s funny.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.
