Nothing to see here, just the President of the United States having absolutely no idea who he is pardoning, nor why.
POLITICO: You pardoned the former president of Honduras even though he was convicted in a massive intl drug trafficking scheme. How is that 0 tolerance on drug trafficking?

TRUMP: Well I don't know him and I know very little about him other than people said it was like an Obama-Biden type set up

I'm sure that farmers who were upset that a single mom in Atlanta was receiving SNAP benefits to buy their product to feed her child will be just as outraged that Trump's giving them a $12B bailout, right? Right? RIGHT?!?!

Indiana Republicans are under significant pressure to do something they know is wrong: rig the maps and silence voters.

Washington Republicans are demanding a "9–0 map." That’s not democracy - that’s cheating. They know it, and they’re ashamed, which is why they’re hesitating.

Newsmax host to Leavitt on Trump's farm bailout: "It's not funded by tax dollars. It's funded by tariffs."

"That's right," Leavitt replies

(Tariffs are taxes on American importers)

Yes, and what if your access to affordable healthcare was considered a right guaranteed to everyone by the government and not a bauble of certain types of employment or friggin club store membership? What then?
Rand Paul on his healthcare plan: "What if you could join Costco? Costco has 44m members and if one person negotiated for all 44 and they bought a group plan like Toyota or General Motors does, they would be the largest collective entity in the country. They would drive prices down by sheer might."

Something every 2026/28 Dem should commit to is investigations of any company that did deals with Trump. A kind of forward guidance to get companies to think twice in advance of what’s coming.
Fox News will applaud this but can you imagine their coverage if President Biden hatched a secret plan to take over Fox News and revamp its programming to be nicer to him
New WSJ reporting: "During a December visit to Washington, David Ellison offered assurances to Trump administration officials that if he bought Warner, he'd make sweeping changes to CNN, a common target of President Trump's ire, people familiar with the matter said..."

Are farmers going to be on welfare for all 4 years of this Trump term, or just for 3 years like the first Trump term?

We get you like voting for government handouts, but we are $38 trillion in debt.

I don’t care if the deal isn’t approved on antitrust grounds. Media company consolidation is a crime inflicted on America just like Citizen’s United. But if it is done to steer this deal to his pal Ellison to create an even worse situation that would be yet another travesty. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Q: Should Netflix be allowed to buy Warner Brothers?

TRUMP: That's a question. They have a very big market share. I'll be involved in that decision

Did you know that before Nixon and Reagan, health insurance companies in America were non-profit? Yep, they screamed about "socialized medicine" and gradually shifted the focus of our entire healthcare system from public welfare to... making bucks off illness.

Millions of Americans watch @cbsnews.com—I do, too. That’s why I’m investigating whether the network’s content is now controlled by journalists or by Trump censors. His tactics are straight out of Putin’s Russia or Xi’s China.

Trump tells us he is killing people on fishing boats off Venezuela to protect Americans from drugs--but he just pardoned a man responsible for flooding the US with 400 tons of cocaine. What did Trump get in return for this corrupt pardon? My new article deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-just...
