Already at least $1.4B richer since taking office, Trump is now suing the IRS for a jaw-dropping $10B over the leak of his tax returns.
As he exploits the presidency for self-enrichment and retribution, millions are still struggling with the soaring cost of living.

Trump is calling for the arrest of President Obama. He's completely lost his mind. This is a joke. Maga is a joke. Republicans are a joke. Never again

Why is DOJ announcing it will now, belatedly, do a civil rights investigation of the Pretti murder and NOT announce that is doing the same for Renee Good or announcing it is giving the state access to the evidence in both cases. Why? Only reason I can think of is to do a whitewash

I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.
But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.

Meanwhile, private prison corporations that are building and overseeing ICE detention centers are raking it in.
