The bill is coming due. Nine of America’s most powerful law firms pledged nearly $1 BILLION in free legal work to causes favored by Trump rather than fight his executive orders. Now Congress wants answers. And as Katie Phang warns, those answers could soon come UNDER OATH.

Folks, I know it’s easy to get excited about all the polls showing Democrats ahead and feel like this election is a done deal. But we can’t take anything for granted. That’s why I’m urging you to take part in a No Kings early voting event today where you live. www.nokings.org

Q: Can you name a time when you voted against Trump and it changed the outcome? SUSAN COLLINS: At one point, I had organized people to vote against Sec. Hegseth. At the very last minute one of our Republicans changed his mind. Otherwise he would've been defeated. Q: So it didn't change the outcome

Susan Collins greenlit the largest tax cut increase to the wealthiest people in the history of this country—billionaires like Elon Musk. And then Elon takes a percentage of that tax cut and pumps it into Maine to support her campaign. It's corruption plain and simple.

North Carolina early voting begins, with students targeted by suppression schemes
Ultimately, voters described the roadblocks as a feature, not a bug, of the state’s electoral system — one that’s littered with so much confusion that some may decide to stay home and not vote at all.

Trump's family has pocketed $3 billion in cash and gifts since the 2024 election. Much of that came from crypto schemes as he deregulated the industry. That money could pay for a full year of SNAP benefits for 1.3 million people, or more than 600 million free school lunches. Second Gilded Age.
