🚨Don't fall for it. Todd Blanche didn't rewrite Trump's controversial IRS deal. He released a late-night DOJ memo designed to help secure the votes for his confirmation. We read the fine print. Here's what it actually says. 👇

President Trump is tearing apart critical wildfire research and prevention resources as Washington state prepares for a severe fire season this summer and fall. This administration is actively putting our communities, environments, and public lands in danger. www.npr.org/2026/06/12/n...

A SAMHSA Mental Health Awareness Month graphic with the text "Sometimes the most important step is listening."

Trump is negotiating to settle his lawsuit against his own IRS, and one of the remedies being floated (along with almost 2 billion dollars) is the IRS dropping all audits of Trump, his family, and his businesses. Just absolutely staggering corruption.

Developers want to build 51 data warehouses, each the size of a Walmart Supercenter, in a Pennsylvania town of just 7,000. And they are refusing to tell the community what technology firms will occupy the buildings. Is it any wonder why a nationwide backlash against AI data centers is brewing?

While Trump's assertion that "a whole civilization will die tonight" represents a discrete threat of genocide against Iran, the fact that it comes from a U.S. president, while Congress does nothing, actually represents a broader civilizational collapse — whether he follows through or not.

Trump was the first sitting president ever to attend oral arguments at the Supreme Court. He did it for one reason: To remind the justices he appointed that they "owe" him and better rule as he wishes. It's something a mob boss or abusive husband would do.

We are spending an estimated $1B per day on the war on Iran. Now Trump and Co want an extra $200B from Congress to fund the war. But healthcare? Cut. Food stamps? Cut. Education? Cut. Cancer research? Cut. Environmental protections? Cut. And of course, taxes on the rich? Cut. It's obscene.
