Well, well, well. In the latest reconciliation bill, Senate Republicans are sneaking in a whopping $1 BILLION dollars in funding for Trump's ballroom. (h/t Aaron Parnas)

For whatever else is revealed in the Newsboys lawsuit, one thing seems inarguable: the contemporary Christian music touring industry would not exist without kickbacks from child hunger “charities”.

The UN is reporting that the U.S. and Israel have targeted civilians, educational institutions and medical facilities...all of which constitutes a “grave violation of international humanitarian law and human rights law”. The U.S. is engaged in war crimes.

As a former evangelical, I can tell you what you're going to see today: Evangelical Christians who rely more on the theology of "Left Behind" novels rather than the Bible will be rejoicing today. Anything that happens in the Middle East gets them whipped into a frenzy.

It is staggeringly depressing to realize that Joe Biden was still President less than a year ago. We haven't even made it a year through this nightmare yet.

If you were writing a script and made the villain a Nazi, a pedophile, a rapist, a felon and a President… …you would be told, “You need to simplify this. Making a person this bad is just not believable.” Yet here we are.

A lot of people who are suddenly upset about a Muslim mayor did’t have a problem with Muslims giving Trump a plane. Or Trump giving Muslims an air-force facility in Idaho.

I found this piece sad too, but mostly because it is part of a years-long effort by progressives to understand what "really" animates Trump voters. We already know! It is racism, misogyny and misinformation. I know that sounds condescending or whatever but it's simply what all evidence suggests.

Does anyone know the cost of SNAP per taxpayer? I keep seeing a $36/year figure but I think that's outdated. (Plus, I can't find any support for that number). Does anyone know the actual number?

Republicans complain about immigrants changing the character of America, but they’ve welcomed the most dangerous foreign influence: former South Africans such as Musk and Thiel bringing an apartheid mentality to America.

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.
