President of the country that thinks a quarter pounder has more meat than a third pounder

That’s a hell of a lot cheaper than paying for lawsuits

Just drove through Texas and surprised to find a Democratic state legislator stowed away in my trunk

The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine How a single consulting firm extracted $282 million from a network of spam PACs while delivering just $11 million to actual campaigns.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.

Trump stole her from Epstein

My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.

Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.

It’s time to fight back.

ICE crackdown imperils Afghans who aided U.S. war effort, lawyers say Advocates fear President Donald Trump’s ambitious deportation plan jeopardizes Afghan interpreters and other allies who worked for U.S. troops during the war.

A disgrace.

“One former interpreter for U.S. forces in Afghanistan was detained by immigration agents after he showed up for a routine green card appointment. A second was arrested just minutes after attending his first asylum hearing in San Diego.”

A new euphemism for lied: “backs away”

Because the CEOs control the news orgs and Republican politicians that talk about why we can’t afford to pay workers

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Thank god he’s not stripped down to his underwear

But hey. They don’t have fluoride

What is wrong with the press. Why has possible no reporter asked Donald Trump about. Victims. Victims. Victims. Victims. Victims.

It's truly DISGUSTING to see the focus only on MAGA Voters. I don't care what voters do.

Ask why Donald Trump does not care about Epstein and Maxwell victims

Epstein's sweetheart deal? Cut by a Republican administration.

The guy who cut it? Trump put him in his first Cabinet.

Epstein's mysterious death? During Trump's first term.

Trump promised to release the files. Now he's not.

This is a Republican scandal. What is Trump hiding?

Brown: Brad Edwards deposed Epstein’s accountant—she worked for Epstein’s modeling company

She gave more detail than we had heard before, including the fact that when Epstein formed that company, he told her he wanted it to be set up just like Trump’s modeling agency.

DeSantis urges Florida sheriffs, police chiefs to fight ICE recruitment efforts DeSantis questioned the need to "poach our people who are already in the fight."

Fun how when Trump breaks government contracts for research & demands end to free speech it is all about protecting the Jews

But when they get their protection money & agreements to end free speech it all about celebrating end of woke & ensuring supremacy over minority races & religions & identity

Maybe a theorized conspiracy isn’t the reason for job-number revisions This morning's monthly jobs report estimated that the country didn't add as many new workers in July as had been expected. More strikingly, it also showed that the number of jobs estimated to have bee...

See, a BLS staffer had to be fired because too-high jobs estimates were revised down this month which was unfairly bad for the president and just last year too-high estimates were revised down which was unfairly good for the president. www.pbump.net/o/maybe-a-th...

Trump’s mental decline is undeniable — so what now? hemselves, that there is a problem, just as Biden’s supporters did for him.    Donald Trump is showing all the signs of suffering from dementia. If this were a neighbor, a parent, or a family frien…

That The Hill of all places is publishing this is quite remarkable.

Newsmax's Greg Kelly on Ghislaine Maxwell: "There's something else going on here. It's an injustice ... people are horrified when I say that this individual just might be innocent. But think about it. Who told us about her? The most reviled institutions in America. The media and the Biden DOJ."

By all means, let the guy who told the secretary of state of Georgia "I just want to find 11,780 votes" make decisions about whose numbers are wrong.

Wow

"He's a piece of shit, but let's get the political science stuff out of the way," Steven told me when I asked if he thought support of Tesla could be considered apolitical. "Elon Musk has platformed white supremacists and antisemites on X. He got rid of all the moderation. He put back accounts that were clearly neo-Nazis. He's changed algorithms to promote that type of hate. Him and DOGE did massive cuts in the government, including our civil services. He's cut cancer research. Did I mention he was a giant piece of shit?" "He's cut our aid to Africa, which Will result, without exaggeration, in millions of women and children and innocent people dying. Millions," he said. "I'm not a big fan of people who give the Hitler salute. I mean, I'm kind of fussy like that. He gave it twice at Trump's inauguration," he continued. "He's a Nazi. And he cheats at video games. You have another question?"

😬The Supreme Court will consider whether the intentional creation of a majority-minority congressional district violates the 14th or 15th Amendments.

If the answer is yes, SCOTUS will effectively declare that what remains of the Voting Rights Act is unconstitutional. This is very, very ominous.

Smokey Bear arresting Chuck E Cheese is the COPS episode we need

They’ve moved on to complaining how Democrats won’t stand up to Trump

The thing that frightens me most about the world right now is that every second of the day, the likelihood that an average person will have access to reliable, vetted information and news decreases just a little bit.

I don’t see this trend abating. There’s no obvious path back.
