You gotta give to the GOP. They trained their voters to hate “libs” so much they would gratefully accept every manner of corruption, lawlessness, cruelty, ineptitude, and criminality, and cheer it on, so long as it is their team doing it.

“The billionaire class has sought to convince those making $30-an-hour that their enemies are those earning $20-an-hour. They want the people to fight amongst ourselves so that we remain distracted from the work of remaking a long, broken system.” -Zohran Mamdani

Brennan Center @brennancenter.org · 05/06/2025
The Constitution’s Emoluments Clauses are a key safeguard against corruption, among the few provisions that apply to the president himself. Now more than ever, it is critical that Congress take action to give them real effect.

The Emoluments Clauses, Explained
The framers wanted to insulate the president and federal officials from corrupting influences, but a new law is needed to ensure effective enforcement.

NEWS: Labor Party has won Australia's national elections today, defeating their conservative opponents. So Labor will continue leading the country for a second term. The right was leading in the polls in 2024 and early 2025, when the lead reversed — in part due to Trump, just like in Canada.

AOC: Tom Homan said he was going to refer me to DOJ because I’m using my free speech rights in order to advise people of their constitutional protections… to that I say: Come for me… Do I look like I care? There’s nothing illegal about it and if they want to make it illegal, they can come take me.

Casualties in World War II: Soviet Union: 26,600,000. United States: 407,316. And the Russians got to Berlin first. So, no, the United States did not do "more than any other Country, by far, in producing a victorious result 'on' World War II." That is just propaganda.

Paramount, the owner of CBS, has been accused of meddling in reporting being done by 60 Minutes. Why? It needs approval from Trump's FCC to be acquired by Skydance — a media company founded by the son of billionaire Trump-backer Larry Ellison. Always follow the money.

House Republicans are celebrating pardons issued to a bloodthirsty mob that violently assaulted police officers on January 6, 2021. What happened to backing the Blue? Far right extremists have become the party of lawlessness and disorder. Don’t ever lecture America again. About anything.

This is a rhetorical question, as I know the answer and so do you: why was an elected Black Democrat charged with a crime (one he pleaded guilty to) for falsely pulling a fire alarm, but an elected white MAGA—Nancy Mace—won't be charged for what is now confirmed as a False Report to Law Enforcement?

A recent analysis found that when Trump imposed tariffs during his first term, companies who contributed to Republicans were more likely to be granted tariff exemptions. Trump's corporate donors won't shoulder the cost of his trade wars. It's crony capitalism at its worst.

Public companies whose executives donated to Republican candidates had a higher chance of winning exclusions from President-elect Donald Trump’s first-term tariffs on China, while those that gave to…
