Mamdani: "As we mark 250 years ... we see the wealthiest country -- one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more ... we see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans"

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package: Overturn Citizens United Ban corporate PACs and super PACs Ban members of Congress from trading stocks Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this entire corrupt system.

Obama: I am not immune to anger or doubt. But I do know this when we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing that voting matters… we open the door to the most ruthless or the most careless, or the most fearful among us who see some groups and some people as more equal than others

ICE plans to sell or give away seven warehouses it bought for $700 million to detain migrants, according to documents obtained by The New York Times. The decision, a major reversal, is a rejection of a signature initiative under the previous homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem. trib.al/o5iUEu3

It’s been five years since Alex Jones lost InfoWars to the Sandy Hook families. As the verdict came down, he asked: “Do these people actually believe they’re getting any money?” He hasn't paid them a penny. Well, The Onion is going pay them anyway. The new InfoWars begins July 2nd at 8 p.m. ET.

Data centers don’t just magically appear. Texas didn’t become the data center capital by accident. They go where politicians offer billion-dollar tax breaks, cheap power, weak regulations, and a giant welcome mat. If we’re serious about fighting these projects, follow the incentives.

Getting 30/30 would be impressive (if only it were true). Getting tested four times raises an entirely different set of questions.
Trump Truth Social post from early morning hours today:
The results of my Physical Examination,
taken at Walter Reed Military Medical
Center, and just released, were extremely
good. Unlike other U.S. Presidents, none of
whom have ever taken an approved, high
difficulty, Cognitive Test, I scored a perfect
30 out of 30, considered "extreme
intelligence." Are the Dumocrats really
surprised? In fact, this is my fourth such
test, all PERFECT or, 120 correct answers
out of 120 questions asked! It is very rare
that anyone gets a Perfect Score,
especially when achieved four times in a
row. All people running for President and
Vice President should be forced to take
high difficulty Cognitive Tests. Congress,
and the Dumocrats, should demand it!
President DONALD J. TRUMP
