Quite extraordinary statement. Almost a call for violence. Still upset that doors opened to women. Wonder if he thinks women should not have a credit card? Or VOTE?1

TODAY: New SNAP cuts are kicking in because of Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill." 5 million people have already lost food assistance, including 1.5 million+ kids since the bill was enacted. No kid deserves to go hungry so Trump can give his billionaire buddies another tax handout.

Sounds about Right…. The reason presidents are limited to two terms is that the last time we had a president who was a Democratic Socialist, the people elected him four straight times!!!

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

1 month into the Iran war, Donald Trump said it would be over "in about two weeks." That was 182 days ago. That's why we partnered with VoteVets to build a calendar of every single time Trump said the war would be ending. Go to AboutTwoWeeks.com and see for yourself.

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power. The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever. But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

I've been counting on the officer corps to refuse orders if they are told to deploy in support of another Trump coup attempt. But is Hegseth purging the military of the officers who would say no? This is a hugely important question. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Jack Smith made it crystal clear that his investigation was sound and lawful, that the president had committed crimes and that the GOP attacks on him were the actual weaponization of our justice system. He showed courage and moral clarity and continues to be one of the heroes of this moment.

Watching Jack Smith's testimony, one thought keeps going through my head... where the hell was Merrick Garland? Complete dereliction of duty. Garland will go down in history as a shameful footnote on "doing business as usual" at a time when our democracy was under attack.
