Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

This is a hideous betrayal of the country, in exchange for a bribe.

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes.

$9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst".

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

If the suspect’s family didn’t turn him in, he’d probably still be on the loose thanks to Keystone Kash.

The DoD now has more money than it knows what to do with.

Imagine if we spent that money on healthcare or housing instead.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court.

Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business.

As well as everyone else who stepped up.

$8.4 Billion.

That’s how much Donald Trump is costing the people of Illinois.

Real dollars that real Illinoisans paid in federal taxes are owed.

Any political party spreading lies about voter fraud as a pretext to make it harder for every one to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

Remember this.

Right-wing Heritage Foundation’s own data shows fewer than 100 noncitizens voted since 1982 (!!!)

I used to take great pride in not being a straight party voter. I would carefully look at every candidate and then vote for who I thought would best serve the people. I still do that last part, but it's been a straight D vote the last few years. The GOP has forgotten THEY are supposed to serve US!

A fun thing to do is look at Amazon’s price history tool.

Prices remain steady on most things over the last 30 days. Toggle it to 90 and almost everything spiked 30%

It’s ironic that there are now reports of Epstein trying to pass on info about DJT to Russian intelligence. Obviously didn’t know that the KGB knew ALL they needed about him already.

Raskin to Bondi: "You're not showing a lot interest in the victims. Whether it's Epstein's human trafficking ring or the homicidal government violence against citizens in Minneapolis, as AG you're siding with the perpetrators and ignoring the victims."

Trump is in it for himself, 100%. His sole aims are to expunge his intolerable 2020 loss and become immeasurably wealthy. He cares nothing for America. Even Stephen Miller's extreme cruelty is just a side benefit.
