What Happens When Politicians Meddle With Economic Data: Argentina’s Example Echoes of the Argentine experience have reverberated in the U.S. since Trump fired the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner, accusing the agency of rigging jobs figures.

"Mishandling economic statistics or improperly accessing the confidential information used to compile them is a felony..."

The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed.

Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

TEXAS REP. @crockett.house.gov: “There is no morality. There is nothing but lawlessness… If we’re going to preserve our democracy in this moment this is the way we are going to have to engage in this fight.”

Suggests?
Wow…

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. 

You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

Yes, this is how you fight, Governor!

A $200 million ballroom, and now this. He doesn’t ever plan on leaving.

Parts of the Constitution were erased from the Library of Congress website, including the section featuring the foreign emoluments clause.

The removal was blamed on a "coding error."

Here's a reminder of what the clause says, just in case Congress ever decides to enforce it...

We found the waste, fraud, and abuse…

Jordy Meiselas: ICE didn't just lower the age requirement—they removed the age requirement. Now, at any age—you can go and join. They've riled up their base and have given them one lane to occupy: take out your anger, become an ICE agent, and chase down migrants. They are preying on people's hate.

This was hard to watch

IL is better than this 😤

A woman accused of fraud hired the AG's brother as her lawyer. Months later, DOJ dropped charges Prosecutors have moved to dismiss charges against a woman accused of fraud who was being represented in court by the brother of Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Fed’l prosecutors dismissed charges against a Florida woman whose lawyer is Brad Bondi, the AG’s brother. The client is a former GOP lawmaker accused of Covid relief fraud. abcnews.go.com/US/woman-acc...

Video shows Department of Justice official urging Jan. 6 rioters to 'kill' cops The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

NEW: Police bodycam footage introduced at the trial of Jared Wise showed him berating police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, and yelling "kill 'em" as rioters attacked law enforcement. He’s now working as a senior adviser for the Department of Justice.

This is what fascism looks like.

At a time in history when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, democracy, and decency, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction — fawning over the most dangerous authoritarian America has ever witnessed.

If you’re wondering how ICE recruitment and training is going under Kristi Noem—South Park already nailed it.

Unbelievable...this is embarrassing

Priorities.

GOP Congressman Rep. Mike Flood NEBRASKA (R)

Dems should fight on every front.

If Texas steals 5 seats, Dem states should redistrict 30 GOP members out of their districts.

We should insist DOJ release the entire Epstein File.

Not only shouldn't we bring knives to a gun fight, if they bring pistols, we should bring machine guns.

Crockett: This is a person that has a problem with people of color. When we look at who he says are low IQ, even though when you look at his cabinet—this has to be the most incompetent cabinet we have ever had in the history of this country.

He fled Boko Haram and helped build an award-winning restaurant. Now he’s facing deportation. Paul Dama left Nigeria after being kidnapped in 2018. His detention feels like "a second kidnapping," says his sister.

Paul Dama left Nigeria after being kidnapped in 2018. His detention by ICE now feels like “a second kidnapping,” says his sister.

“I felt like someone just sucked my blood, my air. Like, how do you live?"

It drives Jonathan Turley crazy when I remind everyone that he is just Mike Lindell with tenure. So, please make sure not to amplify this message.👇

Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure.

Unfortunately, this is where we are headed... shameful...🥺

Jessica: I also heard no complaints when Mike Johnson decided to abdicate his job to say actually congress isn't in session anymore because I don't want to have to vote on turning over the Epstein files…. so be equal opportunity in your complaints about fleeing your job
