A naked, gold-covered Trump statue has been unveiled inside the European Parliament in Strasbourg. It’s called “Orange Plague,” also known as “King of Injustice,” and shows him sitting on another man’s shoulders holding an enormous golf club. Covered in reportedly 23-karat gold, of course.

‘But I got road salt exempted from Trump’s tariffs’ is really the perfect way to sum up Susan Collins during the Trump era. While he does hundreds of things to hurt Mainers, she brags about one small thing she did to help her reelection, while doing nothing on the big things.

'Medicare for All' message attracts midterm voters buckling under medical bills
Midterm candidates are talking up Medicare for All, and in a poll 2 out of 3 Americans said they support it. The phrase speaks to a desire for radical change, though many don't really know what it is.

My favorite thing about the Kimberly Guilfoyle donor texts scandal is that it has to be humiliating for her that it’s now public. And it’s got to sting to know that it must have been Eric Deters who leaked her messages instructing him to help her commit tax fraud and cover up the scheme.

Trump wanted to jam more hens into smaller spaces - making it harder for inspectors to access them - and making living conditions for egg laying hens worse. All so businesses could sell cheaper eggs.
