Just a reminder: there was a Biden administration investigation into Epstein and Maxwell's co-conspirators. Trump killed it in January, fired the prosecutors, stole the files, & ordered Bondi to open a new sham investigation, led by a handpicked prosecutor, so DOJ wouldn't have to release the files.

Trump Administration Live Updates: Pentagon Accepts $130 Million Donation to Help Pay Troops During Shutdown

The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

The same people who lost their minds over renovations to Cracker Barrel are totally fine with the White House getting bulldozed

Tweet from the VP: Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most. Yet she oozes with contempt. My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much happier person if you showed a little gratitude

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.

Trump sent 20 billion to Argentina for a bailout.

China brokered a deal to quit buying American soybeans and buy beans from Argentina.

Trump bailed out the country that swept the knees of American farmers.

The Art of the Deal…

Live updates: Democrats insist upon health care demands as government shutdown begins The U.S. is confronting a fresh cycle of uncertainty after President Donald Trump and Congress failed to strike a deal to keep government programs and services open.

BREAKING: A vote to end the government shutdown fails in the Senate as Democrats hold firm on health care demands. Follow live updates.

Priorities.

Donald Trump — who filed a defamation suit against the New York Times on Tuesday seeking $15 billion — told reporters, "We'll probably go after you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your heart. Maybe they'll have to go after you."

Don’t let this die. Keep elevating this.

“Come on, it’s not like they’ll round up American citizens and throw them into detainment facilities,” they said.

I was hungry, but you passed a bill that cut funding for food stamps so billionaires could get more tax breaks. I was thirsty, but you removed environmental protections and left me without clean water. I was a stranger, but ICE agents arrested me and put me in a concentration camp surrounded by alligators. I was sick, but you cut billions of dollars from Medicaid and I couldn’t get the healthcare I needed. I was in prison, but you left me there in unconscionable conditions because you made money off of it. Whatever you did to the least of these, my siblings, you did to me.

How I think Jesus would have phrased Matthew 25 if he was preaching in America right now.

I’m biracial (US dad, Ethiopian mom US born) and moved to Kenya at 4, had lots of Kenyan Indian friends, families there generations. When I moved to the states I didn’t know I was Black or have any idea of the American binary concept of race until someone called me the n word.

Heartbreaking

It shouldn't get lost that just today, Senate Republicans have voted to close nursing homes, close rural hospitals, and cut food stamp benefits for children and veterans.

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:

- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.

1 in 4 nursing homes will shut down. Who will take care of all those people? Are you ready to do 24/7 home heath care for your aging parents and grandparents? This is what the Republicans are putting on us.

The Big Beautiful Bill is in its ugliest form yet.

- Adding $4 trillion to the deficit
- 17 million will lose health care
- 30% higher electricity costs
- Biggest ever cut in food assistance
- $1 trillion in billionaire tax cuts

We’re doing everything we can to block this.

This is the exact callous rhetoric that fuels political violence in America. 

What a failure of leadership at a critical moment for our country.

This is beyond delusional insanity, it needs its own new terminology for how devoid of reality it is. This man is a deranged lunatic.

I live in L.A., am out doing errands. L.A. is exactly like it is on any other day, with a few hundred protestors in a couple of spots in a city of nearly 10,000,000

Too many people seem to have bought into the GOP's lies about Gen Z being a hyper-conservative generation.

We're not. We were Kamala Harris' best age group. Nearly 80% of us support abortion and LGBTQ+ rights. Generic ballot shows a 2:1 margin for Dems.

Don't believe their lies.
