Trump leads a cult-like pledge to himself, inflation surges, diesel hits $6, the Houthis seize a strategic Red Sea port, Trump sleeps at a 9/11 service, and a Trump loyalist quits the DOJ rather than pursue indictments without evidence. And that's just the start.

… Trump fell asleep again in the middle of the day, this time at the 9/11 service held at the Pentagon.

"If this sort of looting of the public coffers at the president’s behest and for his personal gain and that of his allies isn’t an impeachable offense, then the term has truly lost all meaning." On the IRS lawsuit settlement:

Markwayne Mullin has defended fatal ICE shootings, pushed extreme anti-immigrant policies, denied the 2020 election, and shown reckless judgment unfit for leadership. Tell your Senators: Vote NO on confirming him as DHS Secretary!

Pretty wild that Trump just appointed JD Vance as a Fraud Czar to go after scammers right after he pardoned his 35th different wealthy crony convicted of fraud so far during this term with many more to come.

Markwayne Mullin is an election denier and today he wouldn’t rule out federal officers at polling locations, saying they could be deployed for a “specific threat.” Not new for him. If alarm bells are ringing, you’re paying attention.

Ossoff: "The president owes Americans a real explanation. 2am posts on Truth Social just aren't good enough when you're sending Americans into combat. He was dancing at his beach club the same night he ordered air crews to launch into combat & hours before our service members endured missile salvos"

Wait - Didn't DOGE drastically cut deficits in the second of half of 2025? Haha, you're funny. The only evidence of DOGE savings is a $12 billion reduction in State Dept & foreign aid funding. And the IRS layoffs will cost more money than that in tax evasion and fewer audits.
