Translation: I’m fine with Republicans redistricting but cry when Democrats do it and succeed.

They fired all the Pentagon journalist so now it’s only far right paid trolls. I will continue reporting from the halls of 26 Federal Plaza ways to support my work in my profile.πŸ™

Break the law, face the consequences. That goes for ICE agents who commit illegal acts outside of their official functions.

It has been said before, but it bears repeating: the elderly who’ve worked their entire lives to get $800 a month on Social Security aren’t bankrupting America. It’s tax-evading billionaires like Trump who are bleeding this country dry.

A tweet from the Governor Newsom Press Office reads: β€œDonald Trump promised Americans wouldn’t pay the price of his tariffs. Another promise broken and total betrayal by Trump.” Below it, a CNBC news screenshot headline says: β€œTariff costs to companies this year to hit $1.2 trillion, with consumers taking most of the hit, S&P says.”

Inflation is now at its highest rate since January.

For every fascist authoritarian, there was a Chamberlain who tried appeasement, or a Schumer who opted for stern letters over dogged resistance.

Fascism thrives in the face of timid opposition.

This is why voters are desperate for candidates who will truly challenge Trump and the oligarchs.

Trump demolishes the East Wing β€” and White House norms The East Wing's rapid razing bypassed a detailed process for major federal renovation projects in Washington. Now, Senate Democrats are demanding answers.

Senate Dems are demanding answers about Trump's White House demolition and whether any of the donors could be engaging in "quid pro quo arrangements."

Sen. Elizabeth Warren and colleagues are requesting a detailed accounting of the donors and specifics about the contracting and approval process.

Bullies always go after those weaker than they are. They don't have the balls to go after the criminals & rapists. They already have enough of those in the regime already.

MARGARET BRENNAN: Understood. We'll talk to Hakeem Jeffries later in the program. I want to ask you about what the President just announced in regard to Canada. Today, the President said he wants to raise tariffs on Mexico. Yesterday, he said he's going to raise tariffs on Canada by 10%. He blames what he called a fraudulent ad that featured Ronald Reagan advocate- advocating for free trade. It was put up by the province of Ontario. Is this ad really the issue here, or is it just a tactic in this negotiation? Does the President want the USMCA free trade deal renegotiated, or is he looking to do two separate deals, one with Canada, one with Mexico?

Dear CBS News personalities: The Canadians' ad did not portray Reagan's tariff policy fraudulently, and you do not have to repeat the president's false characterization of it.

Or if your new boss insists that you do, you can at least point out that it's false.

$170B for ICE and Border Patrol
$40B for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation"
$200M for Kristi Noem's jets
$98M for Trump's golf outings

But no money to lower your healthcare costs.

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

I still can’t believe Scott Bessent, whose net worth is $521 million, went on TV and claimed that he β€œhas felt the pain” of the trade war because he is a β€œsoybean farmer.”

And he claims to be a β€œfarmer” not because he grows things, but because he is a landlord of some farmers.

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

So what is Trump talking about?

He’s referring to when the call records of eight Republican senators and one Republican House member were obtained by the FBI in relation to January 6.

No calls were taped β€” just the phone records.

We’ve known about this for a while.
