Trump's crony pardons have cost victims nearly $2 BILLION in court-ordered payments owed to Americans who were cheated, stolen from, and defrauded.

You can't claim to be tough on crime while favoring your criminal friends and donors over their victims.

This administration's deception is shameless. Trump is dragging us into what's so clearly a war – just look at Trump's actions in Iran in the first 48 hours compared to the first 48 hours of the 2003 Iraq War.

Voting confusion in Texas rooted in conspiracy theories about ballot counting New rules spearheaded by Republicans caused confusion at the polls, Democrats said, and the Texas Supreme Court blocked an effort to keep polls open longer.

β€œIn Dallas County, the confusion is rooted in election conspiracy theories about voting machines, which propelled the Dallas County GOP to abandon countywide voting in favor of precinct-level voting and led, Democrats say, thousands of voters to show up at the wrong polling site.”

The perils of Donald Trump’s pivot from peace to war president If the war fails to pay off politically, will he cut his losses or double down?

Donald Trump promised to govern as a β€œpeace president”. Yet by unleashing the most consequential war in the Middle East in two decades, he has made a mockery of that pledge

Republicans have caused total chaos in Dallas County. It's instructive.

Whether or not Trump attempts some sort of executive order to nationalize election administration, Republicans have an endless number of paths to create absolute mayhem in November.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test...

McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M β€” over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Rubio Today: It’s false to say I said the U.S. had to attack because Israel was going to attack. That’s not what I said.

Rubio Yesterday: We knew Israel was going to strike Iran, and that would trigger attacks on U.S. forces. If we didn’t act first, Americans would suffer higher casualties.
