Don Jr. & Eric have investments in data centers and AI infrastructure. Don. Jr's firm 1789 Capital also has shares in tech companies working on AI. Donald's own stock portfolio itself is heavily invested in Big Tech. When Trump calls reasonable AI safety concerns a "hoax," follow the money.

Household debt at a record high. Student loan defaults at a record high. Credit card debt at a near record high. Meanwhile, corporate profits are the highest they’ve ever been. CEOs are paid 325x more than their typical workers. U.S. billionaire wealth is up 30% in a year. It's unsustainable.

This admin has spent years going after science. It proposed the largest cut in NASA’s history, about a quarter of the agency and half of its science programs. But last month, a groundbreaking telescope left the launch pad anyway. And the story of how it got there is our good news this Sunday.

Trump invited his billionaire pals to the state dinner with Chinese President Xi Jinping last night. Since he’s been back in office, the wealthiest households have gained 8,000 times more wealth per household than the bottom 50% of households. It’s clear who he governs for.

I don't say this lightly, but Pete Hegseth deserves to be impeached. I understand just how serious a vote to impeach is from experience, and I still believe impeaching him is the right thing to do. The Iran war. The purge of senior ranks. The boat strikes. The case is overwhelming. (Link below)
