W Bush gifted Obama a financial crisis.

Obama gifted Trump a booming economy.

Trump gifted Biden a pandemic and high inflation.

Biden gifted Trump a booming economy.

Trump will gift [Dem President] another pandemic, tariff war, recession and self inflicted world disorder.

Jessica: There are some key indicators that Trump and this administration knows this is going badly… We aren't getting the jobs numbers anymore, the GDP numbers or inflation numbers and we know, Donald Trump, if the number is remotely good or he can lie about itβ€”he tells you what it is.

Corruption out in the open. How can the White House have the power to approve a merger or block a competing one where Trump’s own son-in-law stands to make millions? This is why the FTC should remain independentβ€”and why Trump wants to control it.

Given the high suicide rates for veterans, cutting mental health and suicide prevention jobs at the Veterans Administration is UNCONSCIONABLE. The Trump administration is full of incompetent, hateful monsters.

I trust Netflix over Ellison, any day. Media consolidation is bad for everyone, but having Trump control who consolidates based on who will distort the media to help Trump is worse.

The next Dem president needs to gut the entire government of everyone Trump hired, knowing full well they were expected to place Trump ahead of the constitution.

It's going to take a very long time to fix this mess.

So aside from trashy reality star Sean Duffy telling people to dress respectfully at airports when he works for the most disrespectful loathsome vile criminal imaginable, he also wants deranged chaos agent RFK Jr to install pull-up bars at airports. I hate this asshole.

Brown: Autocrats don’t fear the disease or the babies dying from whooping cough β€” they fear the evidence of it, because evidence exposes their failures, demands accountability, and empowers the public.

US seeks to lift block on evidence in probe of ex-FBI chief Comey U.S. prosecutors on Tuesday urged a federal judge to dissolve an order temporarily blocking the use of key evidence in a potential bid to re-indict former FBI Director James Comey, arguing the ruling had improperly stalled their criminal probe.

Unsurprising that Trump would try to ban fact checking. He already demands a promise that no fact checking will happen if he does an interview. There's very little Trump hates more than an insistence on truth and facts because it interferes with the lies he constantly tells.

After the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to shoot down Biden's formal federal student loan forgiveness plan, 7.6M Americans were placed in SAVE forbearance.

Today, Trump moved to strip student debt holders from SAVE, effectively forcing millions of Americans back into debt repayment. trib.al/njfoJ8s

It’s been 20 days since the Epstein Files Transparency Act was signed into law and the MAGA regime is still refusing to release them since they are currently in the process of scrubbing names and doctoring documents. Greatest cover up in history all to protect rich pedos.
