In the past year, Trump has promised... -$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend" -$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend" -$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies So far, no checks have materialized. thebulwark.com/p/trump-magic…

Any doubts that the El Paso shutdown - now lifted - was about U.S. military operations against cartels in Mexico? Stephen Miller has been pushing for this from the beginning of Trump 2.0.

The Detroit-Windsor crossing handles over 25% of U.S.-Canada trade—and today that crossing is controlled by one billionaire family running a century-old bridge. That billionaire calls Trump’s Commerce Secretary, and hours later Trump attacks the new publicly-owned Gordie Howe bridge and threatens to block it from opening? It's corruption so flagrant it would be laughable if it weren't so damaging. Trump is selling out Michigan jobs for the same elites he claims to fight, and Mike Rogers is cheering him on—calling it 'the right thing' to block a bridge built by thousands of union workers and owned by the people of Michigan. If you didn't know who Rogers works for before, you do now. He works for Trump, not Michigan. And he has no business in the Senate.

Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency. She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.
Ro Khanna: " Who were the other men who raped these underage girls? Did [Ghislaine Maxwell] have any conversations about a deal with Donald Trump?…She's pleading the Fifth…Why did she not plead the fifth when Blanche asked her questions?"

He was pardoned for serious crimes - facilitating the financing of terrorists and sex predators. Because he agreed to put millions into Trump’s pocket. Naked corruption. Out in the open for all to see.

Howard Nutlick on the Epstein files: "I've looked through the millions of [Epstein] documents for my name just like everybody else" Raise your hand if you too have had to search through the files of a known child sex trafficker for a mention of your name.

4 months after Trump pardoned Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, Forbes reports that Binance now holds $4.7 billion of the $5.4 billion supply of Trump’s World Liberty Financial stablecoin. That is 87%. It is the largest corruption scandal in the history of the US presidency.

If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.
Replying to @BrendanPedersen
Notable exchange between Rep. Sean Casten (D-Ill.) and Bessent on how exactly Treasury is holding Venezuelan assets “in custody” post Maduro capture. It’s the most detailed exchange on these mechanics I’ve seen.

NEW: A whistleblower complaint alleging wrongdoing by DNI Tulsi Gabbard is so highly classified it’s being kept locked in a safe and has not been shared with Congress. The Wall Street Journal reports a “behind-the-scenes struggle” over how to handle the complaint, with officials warning its disclosure could cause “grave damage to national security.”

In 2022, the GOP incumbent won reelection to this seat by +20 points. Tonight was the first time the seat has been won by a Democrat since 1992.

Krasner: John Fetterman has completely sold out the principles on which he ran for office. I voted for John Fetterman, but what he's been doing for quite some time, for whatever reason, and we all know there may be a few reasons, is completely unacceptable for anyone who actually believes in democracy and who actually believes in the rule of law.

Tom Homan will be managing ICE Operations on the ground in Minnesota to continue arresting the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens. In addition, Tom will coordinate with those leading investigations into the massive, widespread fraud that has resulted in billions of taxpayer dollars being stolen from law-abiding citizens in Minnesota.
