According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals. That amounts to $456,621 per hour. But how are you doing?

The Jan.6 committee subpoenaed Trump, but withdrew it after his lawyers cited legal precedent shielding ex-presidents from congressional appearances. The committee decided not to pursue it. But Republicans believe Clinton can be held in contempt for refusing to appear. Funny how that works isn’t it?

There is no legitimate reason not to release the complete Sep. 2 video. They released video of the first strike. What national security justification could there be for releasing video of the first part of the action but not the second? They wanted to cover up what happened after the first strike.

Trump promised an infrastructure bill for 4 years in his first term. Said it was coming in 2 weeks many times. Never delivered one. Democrats then delivered critically needed funding for crumbling infrastructure. Now Russ Vought is taking that away. But only in blue states.
