This is acting like a pure money laundering operation. They reported losing another $54 million last quarter. It has never made money. Investor money is just flying out the back door faster than in comes in to enrich a lot of shysters and grifters.

Tell me more about ‘Sleepy Joe.’

Trump Wines Sold At Coast Guard Stores On Federal Property Exchanges in Washington, D.C., and Virginia have stocked Trump-branded wine and cider, allowing his family’s business to earn revenue from sales on federal property.

During the first Trump administration, selling Trump Wines on federal property would have been a scandal (as it should be).

But this time around, it’s just yet another piece of a corruption tidal wave. 🧵

I’ve never seen an American elected official fight so hard to starve people.

Jimmy Kimmel would like a word

The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough.

I thought this Washington Post headline about Elon Musk needed a bit of context.

Um, do federal prosecutors *really* want to take the position that it's not okay to receive something of value from … Qatar?

I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. 🤔

He spent Biden’s entire presidency calling him ‘Sleepy Joe’. Still does. But this guy nods off in the middle of the day in meetings almost every day. Fell asleep in court all the time too.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The most corrupt administration in American history.

When you desperately want to starve Americans:

This picture is worth 1,000 words.

Republicans are now reportedly at risk of their new gerrymandered maps backfiring because of how massive the blue wave appears to be.

🔥The Senate Republicans are going to be FORCED to work with Senate Democrats to END the shut down after the results of Tuesday‘s elections. I spoke with someone in anonymity that GOP members are receiving MAJOR push-back from their constituents. The Democrats cannot fold on DEFENDING ACA subsidies.

BREAKING: SANDWICH GUY ACQUITTED. NOT GUILTY!

Stunned by some of the revelations in @carolleonnig.bsky.social and Aaron Davis’s book, “Injustice.” They report that AG Merrick Garland’s team was blindsided by the bombshell testimony of Meadows’s aide Cassidy Hutchinson before the Jan. 6 Committee. open.substack.com/pub/jimacosta/…

Interesting Times with Ross Douthat: Did Women Ruin the Workplace?

Did the New York Times ruin journalism?

Image of Nancy Pelosi at the dais in the House of Representatives after the passage of the Respect for Marriage Act with a navy blue gradient with yellow and white bold text reading, "THANK YOU NANCY PELOSI." HRC logo appears in the top right corner.

Today, Speaker Emeritus Nancy Pelosi announced that she will not seek reelection and is retiring at the end of her term.

From her time working with Harvey Milk in San Francisco to her tenure as the first female Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi is the definition of a champion for equality.

It’s worth remembering this

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected 43 days ago.

Republicans still refuse to swear her in because she is the final vote needed to release the Epstein Files.

The bottom line is that the Supreme Court would be doing Republicans in Congress a big favor by taking away Toddler Trump’s Tariff Toy.

They won’t stand up to him, and are hoping SCOTUS bails them out from the Mad King’s economy killing fuckery.

Trump Humiliation Worsens as Fresh Info Reveals Scale of GOP Losses The results showed that Democrats don’t have to choose between attacking Trump and highlighting the economy. In fact, they are often inseparable.

Remarkable: In Virginia and New Jersey, Spanberger and Sherrill erased the GOP edge among working class. Per exit polls, each got 50% of noncollege voters, big gains over previous contests.

Shocker: Anti-Trump politics appeals to working class, too!
