Trump is actively making our goods more expensive by blocking a piece of key infrastructure - apparently all because his most Epstein-linked Cabinet Secretary conveyed a request from a billionaire GOP donor. America does not have to tolerate this kind of corruption.

Yet another example of an out-of-control President sacrificing the American economy and blocking good infrastructure.
It's also a test for Michigan Republicans: will they stand up for what's right, even when it means breaking with Trump?

Please call the Senate they will vote very soon on whether to allow dangerous sulfide-ore copper mining on the edges of Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Tell them to vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140 (H.J. Res. 140).

There's so much happening. From Epstein, to Trump and his cronies' corruption, and then back to Epstein.
But we can't forget about Minnesota.
Especially since right-wing media and social media are pushing imaginary insurrection scenarios and speculation about the beginning of a civil war.

Minnesota and the U.S. Constitution
There is no insurrection occurring in Minnesota. The state's response has been peaceful-- relying on the Constitution, the laws, and the courts

In American history, our country has never had a more insidious criminal. In every other modern democratic nation, Trump would be spending the rest of his life in prison.

Trump is either leaving office peacefully, or he's going to be forcefully removed. The U.S. Armed Forces have a choice: Either support the American people and the constitution — or a fascist authoritarian regime that is a facsimile of Hitler's Third Reich.

I wonder if this is the best time to make such significant structural changes to a program that has helped the Democratic Party train and elect candidates. But what do I know? I'm just a voter.

This is illegal! The Trump administration is instructing managers across the federal government (regardless of employee performance) to ensure that at least 80 percent of staff receive a 3 out of 5 rating, making them easier to terminate and easier to justify in court.

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said.
Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.
