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.

What Comes Next After the 2025 Elections Read more here.

Like you I am celebrating Tuesday's victories. However, my job is not to sugarcoat things and tell you it's all fixed. It is to warning about what to expect next and fight back.

That is why I wrote this and why I hope you read and share. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/what...

Exactly!
I'd bet the total of people who have lost jobs since January is actually higher than 1 million, too.

Between what came before and what happened tonight, Dems ought to treat encounters with CBS reporters as presumptively hostile and untrustworthy. A small thing, but there’s no way out of this disaster if the party continues helplessly submitting to unequal treatment from ~all mediating institutions.

Whoa. He dressed her down while she just sat there seething. Wish i could've seen how she justified what he just said.

She is why people hate lawyers.

Trump says he wants to resume nuclear testing. Here's what that would mean The U.S. has not conducted a nuclear test in over 30 years. Experts say doing one now could make America less safe.

Reporters must stop accepting this. Options:

-Laughing at him. Long and hard (combine with others)
-"It's your job to be informed"
-"How can Americans take you seriously when you always claim ignorance?"
-"I've never heard a speaker claim ignorance so often"
-"Nancy Pelosi knew what was happening"

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

In Durango, Colorado, a masked ICE agent ripped a peaceful protester’s phone out of her hand, then grabbed her by the hair and dragged her across a parking lot.

MAGA is watching state-sanctioned brutality play out in real time, and pretending it’s β€œnormal”.

This indictment of @katmabu.bsky.social and five other protesters is the most ridiculous thing I’ve read (this week), and I imagine it will be laughed out of (lower) court. They’re being charged with the conspiracy of slowing down an ICE vehicle. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Donald Trump deleted this from the government website.

Let's be clear: there's funding available to cover SNAP benefits next month. Trump is stopping SNAP benefits because he wants to. He is forcing mommas and babies to go hungry.

The president had a MRI but won't say why.

He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.

He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.

He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.

How is any of this ok?
