This may be controversial, but I'm just really not a fan of bad things happening

If Jeff Bezos can afford to rent Venice for a $50 million wedding, he can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

Please go to a No Kings rally on Saturday. It’s worth your lifestyle.

It's weird that the same country that made Jimmy Carter give up his peanut farm to avoid any impression of impropriety or conflicts of interest doesn't care about Donald Trump taking a $400 million bribe from Qatar.

We're a country that has become bored with being ethical.

Cameron Hamilton, the acting head of FEMA, has been pushed out as DOGE moves to disband the entire agency. It’s looking like RIP FEMA.

The Supreme Court Is Declaring War on Secularism The high court’s recent run at rewriting the Constitution has come for the establishment clause.

The Supreme Court declared war on our secular Constitution long ago. This isn’t the beginning—it’s their endgame: a nation of, by, and for Christians.

We’ll do whatever it takes to get our country back on track—because America was founded on freedom, not theocracy.

The Unbearable Lightness of Being Concerned Susan Collins and the Theater of Moderate Dissent

No surprises, but a good rage read.

"...Collins' concerns have the moral weight of helium and the practical value of thoughts and prayers—a linguistic gesture designed to create the appearance of ethical engagement while carefully avoiding its substance."

Judge blocks Trump executive order that strips union rights from federal workers The judge suggested during a hearing Wednesday that the administration's moves appear targeted toward unions that have opposed his agenda.

Donald Trump keeps losing in court.

That's why he's lashing out at judges who go against his authoritarian agenda — even going as far as to have them arrested.

His regime is starting to crack bit by bit. Keep up the pressure. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Trump is once again speaking on behalf of Putin, blaming Zelensky and not Putin for his inability to resolve the conflict. He doesn't care about the people of Ukraine or their sovereignty. He just wants to get credit for ending the war.

I guess the HIPAA Privacy Act is no longer a thing. They are coming after your personal health information to create a "Disease Registry" to track Americans with autism

The Government’s Chemical Disaster Tracking Tool Just Went Dark The chemical lobby demanded Trump make the locations of high-risk chemical plants secret. The EPA did just that.

Last Friday, Trump's EPA shut down a Biden-era website mapping locations of dangerous chemical plants. 

The chemical industry, which gave over $1M to Trump's inauguration, heavily lobbied the Trump administration to scrap the website. See how this works?
