🤔 CFTC enforcement authorities were told to halt an investigation into suspicious oil trades around the sudden Iran War ceasefire announcement in March. Billions of dollars worth of contracts had been placed in the minutes leading up to the announcement.-Bloomberg

I used to believe that it would be impossible for 34 time felon, rapist, traitor to get reelected as president, but that happened. So I'm ready to accept the odds in our favor for once. I'm rooting for a clean sweep.

Flip every seat! If we win every Senate race on the ballot this year we'd have a veto-proof majority. Trump could veto whatever he wants and it wouldn't matter (assuming we take the House too).

If Democrats win every Senate race on the ballot this year they'd have 69 seats? That's over 67. It would be a veto-proof majority. Trump could veto whatever he wants and it wouldn't matter (assuming we take the House too).

Ms Rachel from the top ropes
From Ms Rachel's account on Threads, she writes, "CORECIVIC, a company that makes hundreds of millions locking up KIDS in immigration detention
has a PAC that's sending campaign checks to Senator Susan Collins of Maine.
Susan Collins chairs the Senate committee that writes ICE's budget.
ICE is CoreCivic's customer.
The company gets paid out of a budget she controls, and it pays into her campaign."

In the Strait of Hormuz, demined personally by Trump, another tanker was blown up on Iranian mines But the main thing to remember is that the world's oil problems are due to Ukraine. "Everything is fine in Hormuz" - because that's what Trump said.

That lifeline has been ship-to-ship transfers using corridors along the coast of Oman in an effort to bypass Iranian interference in the Strait of Hormuz, with coordination and protection of the U.S. military. Iran vowed that shipping through the alternate route would soon come to an end.

As a Ukrainian, this hurts more than I can explain. We never expected the US to fight our war. But we certainly never expected its president to make deals with the aggressor country trying to erase us. Ukraine is fighting for survival. And watching this happen feels like a terrible betrayal.

Low-hanging fruit for reporters and Dem trackers: ask a Republican running for office, "what would you do if you were in a car with your child and men in hoodies charged at you with guns drawn?" Follow up with "do you think it's reasonable for a parent in that situation to use lethal force?"
