Listen to @aoc.bsky.social: "Our ability to have one home is being eclipsed by other people’s fourth, fifth, and sixth homes...I really think that someone values their first home—their only home—a lot more than they value their 10th."

During a Cabinet meeting today, Donald Trump told reporters "I don't care about the Midterms," and he claimed that Paxton's win the Texas Special Election last night was only a precursor. Let's show him the precursor for his party's defeat in 2028, which will be those Midterm Elections.

Trump didn't go to his own son's wedding because he was too busy directing someone to make a bad AI-generated video of himself assaulting Stephen Colbert, because Colbert was trending all day. Happy Memorial Day, everyone!

Paul McCartney helped Stephen Colbert, his entire team, and their families, turn the lights out for the last Late Show.

Who will be eligible for a payout from the $1.8 billion Trump slush fund? Acting Attorney General and personal criminal attorney Todd Blanche: “Anybody in this country is eligible to apply if they believe they are a victim of weaponization.” Full hearing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWmy...

Here is Donald Trump, friend of Jeffrey Epstein, at the Trump International Golf Course near Mar-a-Lago (where Epstein collected young girls to rape) in Florida on February 11, 2024, for a private high school cheerleaders show.

Donald Trump just told reporters on the White House lawn that he's not going to get Congressional approval for his War in Iran because it's unconstitutional to make him (on Opposite Day) and because no other countries make their Dictators subject to checks and balances.

While we all try to brace for a buckling economy, the real winners in Trump's war on Iran are the Energy CEO's, who are making record bonuses while they shut-off people's heat. shero.substack.com/p/energy-ceo...

"The US Supreme Court..has calculated that Magna Carta is cited in at least 160...cases since 1789, not least as the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances." A British King just rightly checked the entire Republican Party on the Floor of the House.

"The US Supreme Court..has calculated that Magna Carta is cited in at least 160 Supreme Court cases since 1789, not least as the foundation of the principle that executive power is subject to checks and balances." A British King just did a better law interpreting US law than some Justices have...

Trump's FCC is planning to file paperwork as early as this afternoon to challenge Disney's eight licenses for its eight ABC stations in response to the joke Jimmy Kimmel made about Melania Trump. Stay tuned and in the meantime, here is the joke, again:

Baby go boom.

Trump other top leaders, including the First Lady were evacuated from the annual White House Correspondents Dinner a few minutes ago after an unspecified threat. We have the all clear but my, my, doesn't this look odd to you?

Mood.

The American Lung Association’s annual “State of the Air” report has been released, and more than 150 million people across the United States, including nearly half the nation’s children, live in areas with harmful levels of air pollution. shero.substack.com/p/the-clean-...

In addition to allegations from The Atlantic, a watchdog organization has filed a new request today for records pertaining to FBI Director Kash Patel, citing new reports of excessive alcohol use. Listen to Patel unravel when he is asked the first question...

Justice Clarence Thomas on rebuilding trust: "I think if we don't stand up and take ownership of our country, and take responsibility for it, we are slowly letting others control how we think and what we think." Thomas equates people standing up to fascism to "temper tantrums."

During a news conference on the Iran War today, Donald Trump threatened to use the excuse of National Security to jail a reporter and punish the news organization they represent for reporting on the location of the downed US pilot.

Watching this man do shots of Vodka every time Trump claimed he had done something better than someone, that had never been done before, is the only recap you need to watch of that ridiculous Iran speech from Trump last night.

Now Fox News is running with how Pam Bondi made promises of transparency that never surfaced and that maybe the reason she is out is to keep her from being deposed by the House later this month on her handling of the Epstein files. No mention of Trump and how she was following his orders.

Pete Hegseth told the press that now that Trump has initiated a non-Congressionally sanctioned war against Iran, other superpowers (specifically the UK) need to step up to help. We no longer need a sun, the earth just orbits around Hegseth now.

After Cuba's power grid failed on Monday, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that he will "have the honor of taking Cuba" and when pressed said: “I think I can do anything I want with it.” Another attempt at bullshit posturing from a feeble old man.
