FBI agents spending their time harassing DC residents and adding to authoritarian imagery rather than investigating fraud, corruption, or trafficking is, to this administration, more feature than bug.

Trump orders homeless he passed en route to golf course to leave Washington DC President demands unhoused residents leave US capital or face eviction and vowed to use officers to make arrests

The phrase "en route to golf course" adds so much to the headline.

Today, Gaza lost another brave voice. Journalist Anas Al-Sharif was killed while doing what he did best telling the truth the world needed to hear. For months, he showed you our hunger, our grief, our courage. He stayed when it would have been safer to leave, and now he is gone.."

Hegseth is subverting the will of the people & Congress by wasting $10 million restoring a racist confederate statue and returning it to Arlington Cemetery.
He thinks he is sticking it to the β€œWoke”, instead he is erecting statues to the losers of the Civil War.

This is like the insurrectionists seizing our capital.

Something approaching martial law in Washington.

He wants to turn D.C. into an armed fortress because he wants Democratic politicians to feel like they're in his house, he wants to subjugate Black citizens, and he's preparing for martial law.

Trump escapes reality in pursuit of a no-bad-news presidency In Trump's reality, good poll numbers are real (even when he invents them), bad ones are fake.

President Trump is accelerating efforts to banish facts and figures that challenge his narrative of a spotless presidency.

In Trump’s reality, good poll numbers are real, bad ones are fake.

Good job numbers are trumpeted β€” bad ones are malicious attempts to discredit him.

How Trump Twisted the DOJ to Deliver the Retribution He Craves Critics say the once-independent department has morphed into the president’s personal weapon.

Opinion | The MAGA Congressman Accused of Threatening His Ex With Revenge Porn When you’re MAGA, they let you do it.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

It’s not surprising that the Republican Party’s leaders don’t seem to be taking the abuse allegations facing Florida congressman Cory Mills very seriously, our columnist Michelle Goldberg writes. He β€œembodies America’s ruling ethos: When you’re MAGA, they let you do it.”

They quietly erased Sections 9 & 10 of the Constitution from Congress’s own website.

They didn’t repeal habeas corpus. They just deleted it from the website.

That’s how pathetic they are, trying to memory-hole the Constitution. This is authoritarian clown work.

Grocery stores that have been eating the cost of tariffs are about to pump the brakes. Some are looking to be more transparent about the coming price hikes.

Starting tomorrow, new tariffs of 15% to 50% hit a wide range of food items.

If you’ve got a household food budget, this is a must-watch.

The cult leader's hold weakens Trump's bungled Epstein coverup demonstrates that he's past his prime.

"Trump was the assiduous curator of the paranoid theories, hatreds, and obsessions of others. His attention to the fringes of popular culture, and his recognition of just what tidbits appeal most to resentful white baby boomers like himself, has long been second to none."

At this point, anything short of a loud, immediate, and full fledged endorsement of Zohran Mamdani is an admission by establishment Democrats that they prefer Trump's candidate over the people's nominated candidate

The fact that Est Dems are still silent is why the Dem Party has a 26% approval

A Look Inside Jeffrey Epstein’s Manhattan Lair

In Epstein's Manhattan townhouse, there is a framed photo showing Epstein with Donald Trump and his then-girlfriend, Melania Knauss.

The photo was cropped to exclude Ghislaine Maxwell.
