Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions). Apple donated to Trump’s ballroom. And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores after a demand from the DOJ. Remember this.

Amazon, which saved $4B in taxes under Trump's Big Ugly Bill, has cut 30,000 jobs since last October. Verizon, which saved $2B, plans to cut 15,000 jobs this year. Meta, which saved $3B, plans to lay off 20% or more of its workforce. Trickle-down economics is a cruel joke.

The man who infamously brags about grabbing women by the pussy, who condemned the Exonerated Five to death, who refused to rent apartments to Black people, was NEVER considered "Mr Nice Guy." He assaulted E. Jean Carroll and was credibly accused of doing so to dozens of other women. And Jeffrey Epstein's pal has never ONCE offered any kind words to the survivors of Epstein, and he has blocked Epstein's clients from being prosecuted. He's stiffed thousands of working people who worked for him out of the fees they were due. And a "nice guy" wouldn't threaten to wipe out an entire civilization. "No more Mr. Nice Guy" my ass.

People in the Epstein files generally avoid being seen together in public. Not Josh Harris and Howard Lutnick, apparently. #SellTheTeam

Ossoff: How much do you guys know about Jared Kushner—Ivanka’s husband? He’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 billion. And now he’s leading American diplomacy in the Middle East, apparently, while at the very same time asking princes and sheikhs to give him billions more. Can you imagine a normal sitting U.S. ambassador just hitting MBS for billions? But he’s a Trump, a royal, a princeling. The rules are for us, not for them. And it’s not just Jared. Never before have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia has taken American corruption to spectacular new heights.

I am deeply saddened by the recent escalation of attacks against Ukraine, which continue to afflict civilians. I express my solidarity with those who are suffering and assure all the Ukrainian people of my prayers. I renew my appeal for weapons to fall silent and for the path of dialogue to be pursued.

There's a joke that says the difference between a cult and a religion is that in the cult, the leader is still alive and profiting from it. Hannity has left a religion to join a cult.
Republicans against Trump@RpsAgainstTrump

“As of today, I no longer consider myself a Catholic” Fox News’ Sean Hannity makes it pretty clear: Trump comes before everything, even over his religion. It’s a cult.

@hahussain Of course they’re violations of the Geneva conventions — and they’re not even theoretical they’re real. Most Americans have higher standards for US presidents than for the horrific, murderous, undemocratic Iranian regime.

Dear Media: Blindly quoting the President without fact-checking or context is just misinformation with a press pass. We don’t need stenographers; we need journalists. Do your job.

Leading to the usual question: is it good or bad when incompetent sycophants don’t do the job they were appointed to do?

EXCLUSIVE @TheAtlantic On multiple occasions Patel’s security detail had difficulty waking him because he was seemingly intoxicated, according to info supplied to DOJ and White House officials. A request for “breaching equipment”was made because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors. theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

BREAKING: Just 20 minutes before Trump's announcement that the Strait of Hormuz was open, massive trades hit the market. Investors sold a combined 7,990 lots of Brent crude futures, ​a $760 million bet that oil would go down. These orders were much larger than anything else at the time. The traders made huge gains. Unusual.

LMAOOO, so the Strait of Hormuz is open, after trump's unnecessary war caused the death of 13 Americans, injured hundreds, and thousands of Iranian civilians... ... All in exchange for making Iran $20 BILLION DOLLARS RICHER? And, before you MAGAts say "but it was Iran's money," let me stop you until you acknowledge your own Obama-hating hypocrisy.

Congratulations. You reopened a strait that was open six weeks ago, a strait that was closed because of YOUR illegal war. And btw dumbass, it’s the Strait of Hormuz, not the Strait of Iran.

🚨FISA VOTE TONIGHT! 🚨 While you are sleeping, Republicans plan to jam a bill through the House tonight allowing the Admin to spy and collect data for the next FIVE YEARS. This vote on FISA 702 language is scheduled for 2:15 am tonight. That’s right. No warrants REQUIRED. No real assurances a shady AG, FBI, or DNI director will follow the law. Just some vague language dropped in the middle of the night and a five year deal that gives Trump authority for the remainder of his Administration. I am a NO!
