AI Ashley stole $10 million from sick kids & voted to end the ACA subsidies. Why? Her campaign donors are healthcare companies & executives. We need to elect people in office who aren’t corrupt & who will actually work to address the issues working people face. #AngieForFlorida

Pete Hegseth gave a speech in front of a backdrop that almost perfectly matches Nazi imagery. Meanwhile, Trump calls opponents “vermin” who he will “root out,” and says the blood of our country is being poisoned. We are far past left vs right. Our choice is democracy or fascism.

Abdelaziz was an FBI informant until the Bureau dropped him because they suspected he was a double agent. Looks like Ka$h (far right) has forgiven and forgotten. These MAGA weddings are Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence.

It's already estimated that the richest 1% alone evade $163 billion in taxes every year. But Trump gutted the IRS — including the unit tasked with auditing billionaires. The agency's audit revenue fell 35%. Now, Trump's IRS is not publishing data on unpaid taxes. See the problem?

The Trump admin's latest attack on endangered species is a memo saying that as long as you claim you didn’t mean to kill an endangered species, the law can’t and won’t stop you. It’s an absurd and illegal misreading of the Endangered Species Act. The @nytimes.com ’s The Daily podcast breaks it down.

The Trump Administration Defangs the Endangered Species Act
A new interpretation of the law would mean that only the intentional killing of animals, not collateral harm, would be illegal.

When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.
