Even America.gov agrees: Donald Trump drove up your gas prices.
In one Word, did Donald Trump's war in Iran drive up gas and diesel prices for Americans?

America.gov: yes

The USPS rejected ballot envelopes over "a spacing issue" even AFTER the judge denied their appeal to move forward with their nefarious plan. Every single USPS executive involved in this should be prosecuted and charged with election interference...

I can’t believe we’re now in a news cycle where a sitting President explicitly promised money for everyone’s vote, and the media is just debating the plan as if it’s not a fucking CRIME PUNISHABLE BY YEARS IN PRISON.

Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

So, Trump wants to make the MMR vaccine into three vaccines? Let’s see, three separate trips to the pediatrician, three copays, more missed work, and more missed appointments, leaving kids not fully protected from measles, mumps and rubella. None of it supported by scientific evidence.

The President's war with Iran is such a fiasco that he's now back to threatening to commit war crimes. This is wrong and must stop. Congress needs to end this war, not rubber stamp a $1.5 trillion military budget.

Today I made an unannounced visit to ICE’s facility in Scarborough, Maine. What I heard was unacceptable: no body cameras, no training, and no accountability. Johan Guerrero should be alive. Congress must act. Abolish ICE. End qualified immunity.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

July 23, 2025: The White House rolls out a plan to deregulate AI companies. Also, July 23, 2025: Trump buys up to $5 million apiece in stock of Nvidia, Apple, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon & Broadcom. Coincidence? Congress must BAN stock trading by the President, VP, and lawmakers.

I can’t bring myself to be too celebratory. This should have been a 9-0 slam dunk. My main takeaway is that there are currently 4 votes to undo a longstanding constitutional guarantee that 15 years ago seemed beyond any serious question.

Interestingly, the intuition I felt and spoke from -- that embodied knowing -- is precisely the kind of thing AI, for all of its performative anthropomorphic gesturing at the simulacrum of personhood, can't do. Tech billionaires want us to believe that our embodied/human ways of knowing are useless!

Trump brought the NVIDIA CEO on his trip to China to lobby Xi Jinping to buy advanced AI chips, even though it would create a U.S. national security threat. It turns out Trump also bought millions in NVIDIA's stock. The President's corruption is a national security disaster.

Sickeningly evil. Donald Trump must be impeached.  When will it be enough for my Republican colleagues to grow spines and remove him from office?
Trump truth social post: A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!
