Democrats in TX left their legislature behind to prevent a mid-decade gerrymander after Trump demanded that Abbott eliminate 5 Democratic seats before the midterms.

BREAKING:

Two Epstein victims write letters slamming the Trump DOJ and FBI for its handling of the Epstein case.

"I am not some pawn in your political warfare. ... Why not be completely transparent? Show us all the files with only the necessary redactions! Be done with it and allow me/us to heal."

FEC records show Elizabeth Fago donated $1M to Trump's super PAC in April.

What happened next?

Three weeks later Trump pardoned her son, a nursing home executive who pleaded guilty to withholding millions from his workers' paychecks (while buying a luxury yacht).

Everything is for sale.

Instead of helping people get good jobs, Donald Trump just fired the statistician who reported bad jobs data that the wanna-be king doesn't like.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs.

A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which is about to get cut.

If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

America, listen up.

We have one more chance to stop the bill that will cut $1 trillion from Medicaid.

CALL. YOUR. REPUBLICAN. REPRESENTATIVES. It is your voice and your voice only that can fix this. Democrats will hold the line.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.

But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.

He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Really feeling betrayed by @morningjoe I can’t believe that each day I listened to you and took solace that someone felt just like me. I watched Mika cry on air, listened to Joe call Trump a fascist, etc. etc. etc. The hypocrisy is sickening.

Can't get all the $$ they're going to need to offset the promised tax cuts from tariffs.
Tariffs DO bring in income, but NOT from forgien countries. Tariffs on imports are paid by US importers. The US importer pays the tariff 'tax' directly to the US treasury.
