Yesterday, Jack Smith was able to tell the American people what he found from his extensive investigation: that Donald Trump committed criminal acts by trying to overturn the 2020 election. Leading up to and on January 6th, Trump attempted to end our democracy.

Smith: Again, and I think all of us, if we're reasonable, know that there's going to be more crimes committed by these people in the future. I do not understand why you would mass pardon people who assaulted police officers. I don't get it. I never will.

According to a new report, nearly 27% of homes sold in Q1 of 2025 were bought by real estate investors — the highest share in at least five years. If we want to make housing affordable for working people, we must get Wall Street out of our homes. youtu.be/q9TOGxDJ0TE?si=vGkgsj8jyHB…

DOGE scrubbed a long-dead contract from its site—the same place it’s been posting phony “receipts” to fake success. Do they not understand how government works, or are they lying to the public? My opinion: These aren’t mistakes. They’re trying to dupe us.
