In a normal government, this results in the resignation of multiple cabinet officials (Transportation, Defense, and Homeland Security), and the closure or (at least!) radical reorg of the cartoonishly incompetent agency at the center of it: CBP.

JD Vance loudly booed at the Winter Olympics today.

Trump accused of ‘corruption, plain and simple’ after UAE invested in family firm White House says president is not involved in running his businesses. Ethics experts remain concerned

Two days ago, we discovered Trump has engaged in the most corrupt behavior of any president in history—giving secret technology to China's ally in exchange for the Trump family getting half a billion dollars.

And nobody is still talking about it. #Corruption

"This is a political attack" well yeah man if your politics are like "we should be able to murder everyone and also pedophiles are cool" people are going to attack that political stance

I've called them a pro death cult for years for a reason. Just listen to them. Modern day eugenicists.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

AOC: Nearly a trillion dollars in healthcare was taken out and given to ICE. Your healthcare costs have skyrocketed because Republicans value greed and cruelty. You get screwed over in order to pay a bunch of thugs in the streets to shoot mothers in the face. That is what this regime is doing.

“.. People take part in a rally on the day of a general strike to protest U.S. President Donald Trump's deployment of thousands of immigration enforcement officers on the streets of Minneapolis, Minnesota.”

True.

That's because it's in the bottom of the ocean.

Vance really needs to demand a refund from Yale.

Auditor flags possible Pillen ‘favoritism’ in $2.5M no-bid bioeconomy contract with lobbyist • Nebraska Examiner LINCOLN — Gov. Jim Pillen, while pressing the Nebraska Department of Economic Development in 2024 to tighten its belt, steered the state agency to award a $2.5 million no-bid emergency contract to a…

NO-BID CONTRACT: Auditor Mike Foley alleges Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen steered a $2.5 million contract to someone he knew — and that DED failed to explain why no bids were needed.

Team Pillen says her work was worth the cost.

From Aaron Sanderford:

Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen calls his critics “libtards” in a telephone town hall.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

This is completely fucking unacceptable. Shut this terrorist government down until it stops brutalizing its own citizens.

Masked ICE agents, it seems, are now killing American citizens on American streets.

Any Democrat who doesn’t support abolishing ICE should be instantly primaried and run out of the party.

This is non negotiable. You cannot support the continued existence of this fascist murderous secret police.

I remember when they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty.

And now for some important analysis of the US-Venezuela military operation, CBS news will go to a diner in Missouri and talk to some regular folks who don’t know jack shit about jack shit

"This woke Me-Too bullshit has gone too far," said the former Harvard President and Secretary of the U.S. Treasury to the billionaire pedophile sex trafficker in a private email that the Justice Department under both parties kept secret for years

Cull the Democratic Party. Systematically chip away all the weak, corporate centrists and corrupt, gutless elected officials who refuse to fight and instead suck at the teat of the oligarchy.

This is officially one of the strangest pictures in American history, and I do not doubt that it will be considered iconic a hundred years from now.

100% serious here.

Dr Oz talking about obesity, diabetes and dementia while Trump is slumped over like a man minutes from death is supremely funny content

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Taxpayers don’t owe Donald Trump a dime for his legal battles. While he’s trying to get $230 million from the federal government to pay his own lawyers, families across this country are struggling to keep up with grocery bills and rent.

Maybe add a couple indoor taco trucks

When politicians aren’t afraid of people there is no governance.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

“AMERICA FIRST!” He says as he demolishes the White House, sends $40b to Argentina, lets Qatar build a military base in the Midwest, and finagles $250m out of the DOJ to his personal bank account.

"Yes, yes, it *is* sad that you lost the family farm, but have you heard about the big beautiful ballroom that President Trump is building at the White House? It's going cost a quarter of a billion dollars! Yes, billion, with a b. ... What? ... No, you can't come see it. What a stupid question."

This might explain why he's having all of these medical follow ups. I mean, has he tried hydrating and eating some fiber?

White House begins demolishing East Wing facade to build Trump’s ballroom The president had claimed construction of the $250 million ballroom wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure.

Not sure why this image is so shocking, given everything he’s done but: it’s shocking!
