Trump is openly threatening that he'll allow Iran to bomb California (they won't). Can we just throw that asshole into a box with no holes and ship him to Tehran already?

Friendly reminder: The Epstein files were legally required to be released by December 19, 2025. Nine months later, the Trump administration still hasn’t fully released them. Why? Survivors deserve justice. Release the files.

If I start the year with no wealth but earn $500,000 over that year and likewise Jeff Bezos also reports $500,000 in taxable income, we would pay the same income tax rate. But what sense does that make? WIT would make it so the wealthiest people would pay the highest income tax rates. #EconSky

In the past 2 weeks, Democrats have jumped 2% in the generic congressional vote, taking a 8.5% lead. The only state senate race where the Republican candidate is actively ahead in the polling average is Florida, though that race only shows 4 polls. The midterms are shaping up to be a bloodbath.
