Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

CBS News foreign editor Shayndi Raice threw an unhinged meeting with staffers warning that they could be terminated if they cross her and dismissed the Palestinian death toll as a “magic number.” @justinbaragona.bsky.social takes a closer look at the chaos at CBS News. 🔗: zeteo.com/p/read-the-d...

Ghislaine Maxwell is eligible to file a claim with Trump’s $1.8 billion theft of taxpayer dollars. 5 appointees of Trump’s former criminal defense attorney Todd Blanche would then decide if she should get some of your money. This is the Republican Party.

MacFarlane: I'm filling a notebook with misinformation spreading about January 6th today. The idea that these cases were wrongful, no case was overturned, not a one on appeal. And lots of people appealed. They had a 100% success rate for juries at trial.

The move comes after the Trump administration announced Monday the creation of a nearly $1.8 billion fund to compensate allies of the Republican president who believe they have been unjustly investigated and prosecuted. Democrats slammed the fund as "corrupt" & unconstitutional."

On May 2, while in Florida, White House
officials told the press traveling with him that
Trump went to the dentist then for "a
scheduled dental appointment at his local
dentist in Florida."

McGovern: I think Trump is seriously ill. He needs medical attention. There needs to be an intervention from his family or someone in his cabinet—I would say some of the Republicans here, but they don’t have the balls to confront him on anything.

On May 6th, the Oklahoma House of Representatives passed Senate Bill 504 that effectively bans child marriage in the state. It passed 51–36 and now heads to Governor Kevin Stitt’s desk. All 36 "no" votes came exclusively from Republican lawmakers. They are exactly who we think they are.
