Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

The silence of congressional Republicans to all the Trump corruption - from his disgusting pardons, to the UAE crypto money, to the Qatari jet, and the ballroom, should be used against all of them in midterms along with their silence on tariffs which has made things unaffordable.

Senate update: Republicans are now trying to sneak a backdoor national abortion ban into their government funding bill. Republicans will stop at nothing to control women's health care decisions.

Trump and Vought are now breaking both sides of spending law. They’re illegally not spending where the law requires them to spend, and they’re illegally spending where they don’t have the money to spend.

What we have is an appropriations king.

Spending β€œdeals” are meaningless under that setup.

Chief Justice John Roberts has led the Supreme Court for 20 years now.

In that time, his Republican-appointed majority has completely transformed America and its politics, with many of its most destructive opinions written by Roberts himself.

No one in the GOP Hitler chat was a "kid," JD Vance. We checked.

By scanning public records and media reports, Mother Jones determined the ages of eight of the 11 participants in the abhorrent leaked texts from young Republicans that Politico covered on Tuesday: They appear to range from 24 to 35.

The White House is already walking back hundreds of federal layoffs Trump's cronies fired critical public health workers. Regret set in immediately.

Approximately 4,000 federal workers were laid off, with reports suggesting that the RIFs primarily targeted HUD, the DOE, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and the Treasury Department.

But already, hundreds of those fired employees have reportedly been reinstated.

Letitia James Is Among Prominent Black Women Targeted by Trump Fani T. Willis, a district attorney who brought election interference charges against Mr. Trump, and Lisa Cook, who serves on the Federal Reserve Board, have also been investigated.

Among the long list of political adversaries President Trump has targeted in his second term are several Black women in powerful positions. Attorney General Letitia James of New York, who brought a civil case against Trump and won, is the latest.

Trump officials can’t keep their mouths shut about DOJ’s biggest prosecutions β€” putting cases in jeopardy Defense lawyers are arguing that the administration’s across-the-airwaves comments are hurting their clients’ chances at a fair trial.

Trump is deploying the DOJ to punish and prosecute his perceived enemies and advance his political agenda.

His commentary β€” and that of senior members of his administration β€” could derail the cases in court.

This is an old formula used by authoritarian regimes. Stoke chaos and blame scapegoats to justify the use of force.

Trump Canceled 94 Million Pounds of Food Aid. Here’s What Never Arrived. ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the millions of pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the administration’s cut...

The Trump administration has cancelled 4,304 deliveries to food banks so far this year, refusing to deliver 94 million pounds of contracted-for food. Food banks simply can’t feed people enough anymore. Millions of Americans are going hungry as a result.

It appears that the federal agents occupying Portland have people embedded with them charged with the task of producing stories presenting the government’s version of events. Ironically, this was the sort of work JD Vance did in Iraq before he decided he was against that war.

What Happens to School Lunches in the MAHA Era? R.F.K., Jr., promised healthier food for kids, but the Trump Administration is cutting programs that achieve this goal.

In March, the U.S.D.A. abruptly terminated $1 billion in Biden-era funding that had helped food banks, schools, and child-care centers procure fresh food from local farmers, cutting initiatives that made school lunches healthier for kids.
