Ted Lieu: “There is a 24/7 camera that shows the reflecting pool. If someone went into the pool and made a 250 foot gash, it would have been seen trump is lying again. Everyone knows it, but the people at the Justice Dept are randomly going after people to soothe trump’s fragile ego”

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere. It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

Since taking office, Ken Paxton has become a multi-millionaire while our pay has stagnated. He owns 11 homes while most Texans can’t afford one. He trades favors with rich donors while blocking overtime pay for workers. Paxton doesn’t serve us — he serves himself.

Trump wants Congress to "expunge" his impeachments from the historical record. There's just one problem: history doesn't work that way. A vote can't erase what happened. It can't erase January 6th. And it can't erase the record future generations will read. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

This is the part getting almost no coverage: to rebuild what we burned in Iran, we need critical minerals. Minerals that China controls. The war in Iran costs more than lives and dollars, it’s handing Beijing leverage over our recovery. Full deep-dive on this at the link in my reply.

When billionaires take control of vital communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy. And when those billionaires justify their business motives by citing “freedom,” what they actually seek is freedom from accountability. Don't be fooled.

An AG who says it’s the president’s duty to investigate "whoever he believes should be investigated" is unfit. That’s the end of the rule of law. No evidence. No equal justice. Just the will of one man. Our founders fought against this. That’s not American. That’s authoritarianism.

First of all, who brags about getting along well with a murderous despot like Kim Jong-un?!
A screenshot of a tweet quoting Donald Trump speaking at a White House podium. In the quote, he criticizes South Korea for not helping the U.S., mentions 45,000 U.S. troops stationed there, and says he gets along well with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, adding that Kim said nice things about him. A Fox News broadcast still shows Trump speaking with a “Breaking News” banner about negotiations with Iran.
