If we learned that the Obama or Biden DOJ was casually monitoring the comings and goings of a reporter for any reason, much less b/c she was the lead reporter on all things Epstein, it would be a Watergate-level scandal but of course since it's Trump, one day (at best) and we move right along 🙃

The incredibly corrupt, lawless, & unconstitutional nature of the entire DOGE enterprise requires Elon Musk and lots of other people to spend the rest of their lives in jail.
The Wisconsin component of the analysis here is revealing. Evidence is consistent with DOGE strategically delaying contract terminations in WI until after the 2025 state Supreme Court elections to mitigate electoral risk.

When student loan borrowers are in default, how does the Trump regime respond?
By garnishing their wages.
When billionaires see their wealth hit record highs, how does the Trump regime respond?
By extending their tax cuts.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

One reason why Republicans won't extend expiring ACA subsidies?
Koch-backed lobby groups have spent over $1.1M pressuring GOP lawmakers to let 20M Americans' health insurance costs go up.

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..."

We don't need a Dem candidate who sides with the billionaires. We just don't. And I guarantee y'all that if you nominate this guy you will live to regret it.
He's also got a habit of vetoing really good bills because the billionaires don't like them. We can do better.

Gov. @gavinnewsom says he disagrees with Mayor @zohrankmamdani about the need for a wealth tax on billionaires, which he is “adamantly against” - says Dems are a “big tent party” with both views.

Worth noting at no point in the 20th century have court decisions and lineups been so consistently akong party lines
Any argument that the Court is anything but an unelected partisan branch of government should be over.
And Dems should vote to rebalance it when they next gain power.
