WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Donald Trump is building a ballroom twice the size of the White House. He says it’s “his money,” but it’s really from companies chasing favors. Meanwhile, farmers can’t sell soybeans and the government’s shut down. This isn’t what Americans voted for.

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

DOJ WHISTLEBLOWER: “I wouldn’t be abiding by my oath if I stayed silent right now.” 🇺🇸

He says Trump’s DOJ wanted him to lie (about Kilmar being a gang member & terrorist, etc…) — and fired him when he wouldn’t.

Tom Homan reportedly accepted $50,000 stuffed into a takeout bag from undercover F.B.I. agents. We must continue to ask where the money went, @ruthmarcus.bsky.social writes.

Tom Homan and the Case of the Missing Fifty Thousand

Lawmakers and ordinary citizens have to keep asking about the bag of cash, or accept an executive branch without any accountability.

When Trump announced 4 days ago randomly that India agreed to stop buying Russia oil, I was surprised because Russia is their largest supplier, we are still in a trade war with India, and their govt has said nothing about it. Turns out he just lied and made it up. Shocker.

No Kings Day was peaceful with millions marching. Democrats are getting increasingly excited and the protests are helping. This is just a test run for Virginia and New Jersey in two weeks.
