While Republicans parade around Hillary Clinton, they should remember that it was Ghislaine Maxwell who wrote to Melania Trump calling her “sweet pea.” While Democrats are content with having accountability for everyone, Republicans seem to be using the Epstein files as a political football.

Fraud is fraud. Period. The idea that the Minnesota fraud was not covered is ridiculous. The biggest reporting came from the New York Times, not some fringe outlet.

Last night’s “affordability” rally was a gift to the Democrats. Trump championed austerity and said tariffs are making farmers rich. Midterm ads will replay it nonstop. You will not find a single farmer who says they got rich from his tariff policy.

Trump is getting pushback left, right, and center from the public and the courts. The judge who ruled against Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Oregon was a Trump appointee. Even Republicans know this is a gross overreach. He’s pushing all the wrong buttons.

Gavin Newsom is not imitating Trump. He is mocking him. He is holding up a mirror to what Trump does and how blind his supporters are to reality. From the 3 hour North Korean style cabinet meetings to all caps nonsense tweets. It’s all worthy of mockery.

This notion that Republicans are coasting right now and the wind is beneath the sails of Donald Trump is just not true. Joni Ernst is not going to run for reelection in Iowa. There was a special election in Iowa earlier this week and the Democrats have now broken the Republican super majority.

The American people did not elect Donald Trump to become the curator of the Smithsonian - they elected him to lower costs. We have to talk about the horrors of slavery for what they are. They already tried this with the Florida curriculum that taught the ‘benefits’ of slavery for black people.

Donald Trump’s argument that Democrats have failed to take care of blue cities does resonate with 80%+ of the American population. These are real 80/20 issues that the majority of Americans actually agree on. Whether Trump is telling the truth, however, is a different story.

Despite what Trump claims, there’s no manufacturing boom—we’ve lost 11,000 manufacturing jobs in just the last month alone and the industry contracted at its fastest pace in the last nine months. The hundreds of billions in investment? Just an “intention”

I also didn’t hear outrage when Mike Johnson decided to clock out early, saying Congress wasn’t in session because he didn’t want to vote on releasing the Epstein files. If you’re going to blast people for bailing on their jobs, at least be equal opportunity about it.

ICE claims to be going into only tough spots, but the “tough” spots are court hearings and car washes. And now, ICE has a budget larger than the IDF. Despite all that, we are cutting food assistance, SNAP, and health care. It’s outrageous.

Trump has been creating these trade wars that have resulted in Americans paying more. Tariffs are taxes on Americans — consumers pay, not foreign companies. If they really helped, why are Trump and Josh Hawley now pushing rebate checks? Because voters feel the rising cost of living due to tariffs.

Get just a taste of this “golden age”: GM profits down 35%. Trump’s tariffs costing Stellantis hundreds of millions. Beef prices highest since the '80s. Trump’s approval hits a second-term low at 37%—only president beating him is himself from the first term.

Donald Trump regularly does interviews and just simply says "I don't know." "Mr. President, do you have to follow the Constitution?" I don't know? Trump may be in front of you more than Biden, but all he's doing is spewing utter bullshit.
