Senator Mark Warner is right: young Americans are losing the opportunity at getting a fair shot in America. They deserve more and better from our leaders.

First, the election was rigged. Now, the jobs number. Blaming anyone else but himself as usual.

ICE claims to be going into only tough spots, but the “tough” spots are court hearings and car washes. And now, ICE has a budget larger than the IDF. Despite all that, we are cutting food assistance, SNAP, and health care. It’s outrageous.

Maybe trade off planning? I'm not completely sure! But it's the thought that counts :)

Should men pay for everything early in a relationship?

It’s not about being extravagant, it’s about being thoughtful. Scott and I share our takes:

Heartbroken for Julia, Wesley, and the two officers taken too soon. Heroes, parents, neighbors—gone because a man with a documented mental illness still got a gun. We had an assault weapons ban. It worked. We can save lives. Doing nothing is a choice.

A lot of movement in the wrong direction for Trump.

Trump has been creating these trade wars that have resulted in Americans paying more. Tariffs are taxes on Americans — consumers pay, not foreign companies.

If they really helped, why are Trump and Josh Hawley now pushing rebate checks? Because voters feel the rising cost of living due to tariffs.

Embarrassing us one press conference at a time.

Donald Trump’s approval rating on inflation in the latest Fox News poll is 36%. Tariffs are driving up costs and the American people are angry. There’s no sugar coating that, no matter how some may try.

Florida has been a deeply red state. David Jolly wants to change that next year. Will he be able to thread the needle?

Get just a taste of this “golden age”:

GM profits down 35%.

Trump’s tariffs costing Stellantis hundreds of millions.

Beef prices highest since the '80s.

Trump’s approval hits a second-term low at 37%—only president beating him is himself from the first term.

I'm excited for the Rubio vs. Gabbard cage match.

Remember: Rubio helped produce a report concluding that Moscow aimed to harm the Clinton campaign and help Trump and Gabbard even talked Russian interference on Rogan’s podcast.

This is such old news it's absurd we're still talking about it. The Epstein situation is a real problem for the administration and keeps getting worse—but bringing up Hillary’s emails again? Come on. It's preposterous.

There is a lot of partisan outrage over the Stephen Colbert cancellation and it seems pretty clear that it was a financial decision. Does it mean the end of late night TV as we know it? Yup. Expect to see Colbert in the podcast sphere next summer!

This was already the least productive Congress in history—and now it’s shutting down entirely because Mike Johnson is terrified of Trump (and what might be in the Epstein files). The GOP’s contempt for the American people couldn’t be more obvious.

Trump wants us focused on Hunter and 2016 distractions instead of this:

52% think we’re in a recession, 64% say the economy’s getting worse, 70% say Trump hasn’t done enough on prices, and 62% say his policies raise food costs.

His approval? Just 42%.

The Golden Age sucks.

Democrats may not be polling well right now, but Republican policies are polling even worse. With one year to go, I’d rather be a Democrat heading into 2026.

We live in such polarizing times, one must wonder, can we inject positive religion into our politics?

We sat down with James Talarico to find out:

The GOP loves to lecture Democrats about all the things we’re doing wrong while people like Andrew Schulz and Joe Rogan are calling Trump out.

House Republicans are having trouble passing their recession package. Why? Because of Jeffrey Epstein. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: this isn’t going away, and Democrats won’t let it.

A budget is a moral document. It expresses your values.

Republicans want to sunset vaccines and slash SNAP, but keep private planes and tax cuts for the wealthy. Those are their values.

Come on.

Donald Trump's approval rating on immigration ranges from -27 in Gallup to -19 at CNN and -15 in the new Quinnipiac poll.

Why?

It's simple: he's not doing a good job as President.

I’m excited about the MAGA infighting regarding Jeffrey Epstein. Why? Because for some, this is finally a bridge too far. Trump is now being exposed as just another swamp creature.

Literally made up by whatever Democrats name he can remember at the moment.

Elon Musk promised us trillions in cuts. Now, we are down to 9 billion, and the Administration wants to do things like pay thousands to incinerate food assistance. This just isn’t what the American people want.

Donald Trump calls for Adam Schiff’s prosecution minutes after inflation numbers come out showing inflation increased in June. Coincidence? No, I think not.

What could possibly go wrong?

We’ve now entered the revoking citizenship of people who are mean to me phase of the presidency. It only gets worse.

Democrats can’t run the same 2024 playbook.

Voters want accountability on immigration and the economy. Trump’s pivot—talking up work visas while dodging mass deportation talk—shows where the public is headed.

Even Democrats could get behind that.
