Eric Schmitt now insists that one of these men is Jack Smith
Edward Hopper's Nighthawks at the Diner. Two men (in suits and hats) and a woman (in a red dress) sit at a diner. A third man, hunched over, works at the diner. None of them are Jack Smith.

That's $4.1 million per DAY he's been making since the election. And remember, he isn't even allowed to have another job while he's president. This is pure corruption. Trump is the most successful white-collar criminal to ever live.

The reality: Men do not need to put on a dress and go into a public restroom to abuse women and children. They usually just go home. Or don a clerical collar. Or wear a badge. Or run for office. Or play pro sports. Or they just do it at a political conference. Wearing pants.

Our right to privacy does not come with an income requirement, period. That’s why we’re suing the Concord Housing and Redevelopment Authority for installing surveillance devices, called Minut Monitors, in hundreds of public housing apartments units in New Hampshire. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2026...
nhpr.org
Concord Housing Authority put high-tech sensors in rentals. Lawsuit claims it’s surveillance.
Devices made by the company Minut can monitor noise levels or smoking, without a camera. The ACLU says they are akin to continuous warrantless searches by the government, and an invasion of privacy.

Massachusetts law forbids providers from withholding care based on gender identity, but Fenway Health ended lifesaving gender-affirming care for 400 young people almost a year ago and so far has gotten away with it. So much for our "progressive" state. Solidarity with the arrested activists.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.
