It’s important to note that even though the importers jacked up prices on the American consumer, it’s the corporations that get these refunds. Not the consumers. So the rich, as always, will get richer while American consumers will have paid the price. END/

ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media.

The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland.

The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States.

Donald Trump has a history of making national tragedies worse. So here's a quick side by side of how one president responds to a national crisis versus how another does.

One politician is proposing or actually carrying out all sorts of abuses we associate with actual communist rule. The other one is running for mayor of New York City.
No, Zohran Mamdani Isn’t a Communist
Trump tries to smear the NYC mayoral candidate. But it’s Trump himself who uses Communist tactics.

The evil artistry of Republican messaging is the ability to convince so many to vote against their own economic self-interest for the benefit of billionaires and huge corporations.

“They just see us as little toy soldiers to put on the street to show some muscle.”

Alex, a National Guard recruiter who requested anonymity to speak freely, told Mother Jones that the DC mission has deterred potential recruits and pushed soldiers to their breaking points.

“This is an encroachment on everything we signed up for and it feels like a violation.”

National Guard soldiers called into service for President Trump's law enforcement surge in D.C. have been assigned to spread mulch at federal monuments.

Normally the Park Service does that, but the administration laid off the workers.

This is painful to watch. Felon Trump has the National Guard picking up trash in D.C.

Because there isn’t enough crime to keep them busy?

Watch this. Apparently, police followed Rep Collier into the bathroom and threatened her with a FELONY for being on a press call with Senator Corey Booker and Governor Newsom.
Authoritarianism in plain sight.

Texas Rep. Nicole Collier was forced by police to hang up on a press call after being threatened with a felony arrest—for daring to speak.

She can’t be in the bathroom, can’t be on the floor, can’t even talk to the press without GOP cops breathing down her neck.

MAGA's packed-and-stacked Supreme Court opened the door to extreme partisan gerrymandering in the states. Democrats must use every tool at our disposal to stop this Orbán-style one-party takeover of our government.
