#Trump just finished a speech. After he rambled on about AI saying he knows nothing about it. He tries to leave but he can't find the door. Watch as his handlers start to help him. Then Dr. Oz starts whispering in his ear. I guess to help him figure out where he is now. #QatariAirbase #TrumpGone

Trump’s Argentina bailout enriches one well-connected US billionaire. (I'm not an expert, but it sort of sounds like insider trading to me. Thoughts?) www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Trump is giving another taxpayer-funded bailout to billionaires, and working class MAGA cultists won’t say a peep.

The nation’s largest private prison company is asking the Supreme Court to give federal contractors blanket immunity from lawsuits — including human trafficking claims.

If they win, private contractors could operate with even less accountability than they do now.

The Human Trafficking Case That Could Hand Government Contractors Blanket Immunity

In a little-noticed Supreme Court case, the country’s largest private prison operator argues companies should be shielded from lawsuits when doing the government’s dirty work.

“YOU hit HER.”

CHICAGO - Trump’s ICE goons ram into a passing car after snatching someone, then brutally drag the female driver of the car they hit out of her car with guns drawn and arrest her too. (Her brother says she’s a citizen)

As a combat veteran, this is VERY triggering. This would have been the end of me. I would have went nuclear. It would be the end of me. I can't be responsible for what happens. American combat veterans can't be pulled from their cars like this.

Republicans in TX erased 5 Democratic Congressional districts stripping representation from minority communities.

Then MI did it.

UT, NC, FL, LA, KS & IN+ are going to do it too.

If Prop 50 doesn't pass, our 2 party system will die! 🧵

When masked secret police are crashing into cars & violently pulling women out & beating them to a pulp with no warrant, answering to no one, this isn't democracy!

We have 1 chance to retake power—Prop 50!

WE NEED YOU!

$47. And that’s if the government isn’t lying about the interest rate. Plus, they will have to prove she intentionally schemed to swindle $47 from the bank - as opposed to just not knowing the difference between a second home and an investment property. Good luck, Lindsay.

The grand jury indictment against New York AG Letitia James accuses her of receiving a lower-cost loan on a home she purchased.

James saved only about $50 a month with lower interest rate, the indictment alleges.

Alexandra is among the people who lost their jobs for posting about the conservative influencer's death. She described the online mob that got her fired as "state-sponsored censorship."

So “antifa” is really “inflata” and is a bunch of people protesting in blow up costumes.

Tweet from Meidas_Charise Lee: “THIS IS THE COOLEST WAR ZONE EVER! Portland’s strategy… maybe if we act weird enough they’ll leave!”
Attached is a photo of people in colorful inflatable costumes dancing or moving playfully at night.

The prosecution of Tish James is the product of a broken system that allows lawless billionaires to rule alongside corrupt politicians.

It’s as much a story of New York City as Washington, D.C.

But it's here in New York where a new era of politics will be born.
