Today, I asked acting-AG Blanche if a convicted pedophile & Jan 6 rioter would be eligible for his & Trump's $1.8 BILLION taxpayer funded slush fund. The fact that he can't rule it out is obscene.

Trump's Budget Director admitted it: Trump & Republicans CHOSE to give big PERMANENT tax cuts to the rich, while the much smaller cuts for working Americans EXPIRE in 2 years. Their priorities are clear. We need a tax code that works for working people, not the super-rich.
Trump is already spending $1 BILLION PER DAY on his illegal regime change war of choice in Iran. Now, he's going to ask Congress to give him up to $50 BILLION MORE. My vote: hell NO.
Last month another American was killed in the West Bank, the 9th in just over 4 years. Israeli settler violence is out of control but the Trump Admin, like the Biden Admin before it, hasn’t gotten justice for any of these killings. Rubio & Huckabee: DO YOUR DAMN JOBS!
How is it Trump's nominee for the IAEA, a key nuclear inspection agency, didn't know that both the IAEA AND Trump's 1st Admin certified that Iran was in compliance with the JCPOA? The JCPOA was preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. Trump ripped it up & started a war.
Yesterday, the IDF seized 4 students from their homes in the West Bank, including 20-year-old American, Sama Safi. The Israeli govt didn’t tell her family or the U.S. Embassy where or why she was being taken & is holding her without charges. America must secure her release NOW.
Yesterday, Trump announced a $1.8 BILLION taxpayer funded slush fund for his allies & friends. Today, I asked acting AG Blanche if Jan 6 rioters who assaulted police & committed violent crimes, would be eligible for payouts. He couldn't say no.
I will not vote for another dime for Trump's war. This war is making us less safe. It's taken 13 American lives. Killed thousands of civilians. And is costing billions in taxpayer dollars. The best way to protect our troops, save lives, & end this war is to cut off funding.
As Trump ramps up his threats of war against Cuba, we must understand what led us to this point: 65 years of a bankrupt Cuba policy. If we want to avoid war with Cuba, we must rein in this lawless President & learn from the failed, bipartisan policies that led us to this point.
4 years ago, then-Rep. Mike Waltz called on President Biden to make clear that Putin was an 'absolute war criminal.' Today, he refused to even utter those words himself. As one of Trump's top diplomats, his reversal speaks volumes.
Today, the American people won. After we exposed Trump's $1.8 BILLION taxpayer funded slush fund & threatened to make Republicans vote on every part of it, they're running scared. They've pulled down votes & are going home. We know they'll be back at it, but so will we.

It turns out, ‘Trump’s pool guys’ are not Trump’s pool guys. So who are they?[Edit] David Fahrenthold, for the New York Times, about Trump's vanity projects in D.C. and bizarre details of Trump's overhaul of the Reflecting Pool on National Mall. May 15, 2026 www.ms.now/the-briefing... The Briefing
This clip is NOT from 2008 it's from 2026 but you'd never know it. Hannity was ranting about Barack Obama after the former president opened his library in Chicago. If he could have worked in Hillary's emails he would have! Bleach Bit and private servers!
Trump admires the garden at Zhongnanhai with Xi after he destroyed the Rose Garden to build his cheap terrasse. You can’t make this stuff up.
This was a great point. He was very vulnerable and humble. I'm glad they did this interview.

It’s damn shameful to say… The IRGC is more trustworthy than the “President” of the United States. This is no longer about Left or Right. It’s about whether ANY of us can trust our own “leadership” when it really matters. #BLUE #BLUEWAVE #VoteMagaOut #Iran #NOWAR
