The verdict of a prominent conservative website and magazine: "A 79-year-old man who has long dealt in chaos is now being consumed by that chaos. His episodes are becoming more frequent, his good days further apart. What he has lost is not a sense of decency or decorum—he never had those—but any remaining sense of self-control. "Everyone around him can see it. Yet, whether from ambition, cowardice, or weary acceptance, they keep looking for ways to rationalize his behavior. The tragedy is no longer Trump’s. It is now America’s."

BREAKING: Governor Tim Walz declares that Democrats MUST focus on passing universal healthcare when we retake control of the White House and Congress — or else we'll end up right back in the "same situation." Do you agree with this assessment? “We have to figure out, once we move in a progressive way, once we see a Barack Obama win, once we see a Congress win, it has to be about not holding power for the sake of holding power, it has to be about passing things,” Walz said on MS NOW. “And for this, Donald Trump has encouraged me, when we take power back, I’ll tell you what, the next Democratic president better figure out a way to get universal healthcare or we’re back in the same situation again,” Walz added. The governor is absolutely right. Trump has shown that the president's powers are far more expansive than previously believed. He or she can move to proactively change our nation and force the courts to play catch up. In Trump's case, he has abused that power to enrich himself and corporations, strip away our rights, start pointless wars, and brutalize minority communities. A Democrat, could instead, use those presidential powers for the betterment of the American people by ramming through universal healthcare. And don't let anyone argue that we don't have the money for it. Trump's illegal Iran War has cost tens of billions already and he requested a jaw-dropping $1.5 trillion defense budget. We have the money for healthcare, we're just wasting it on bombs and bullets to kill innocent people. Politically speaking, Walz is also correct that Democrats have to find ways to implement life-changing policies next time we're in power or we risk empowering another fascist like Trump. It's not enough to just win elections. We have to prove through policy that Democrats are always the better choice. Let's change this country for good! Please ❤️ and share if you support universal healthcare!

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson received both her undergraduate and law degrees from Harvard University. She graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Government and earned her Juris Doctor (J.D.) from Harvard Law School, graduating cum laude. While at Harvard Law School, she served as a supervising editor of the Harvard Law Review.  Donald Trump is a fucking idiot.

BREAKING: Devin Nunes is OUT as the CEO of the Truth Social Parent Company, Trump Media. The company brought in just $3.7 million in revenue last year, and LOST $712 million. The Stock is down from $58 to $9.82. Another Trump FAILURE!

Oh snap! Democratic House Rep. Marc Veasey absolutely demolishes RFK Jr. during the hearing on the HHS budget: "You have blood on your hands. I honestly hope that Donald Trump tells you to get to steppin' next." Boom! 🎤

🚨BREAKING UPDATE: JD Vance's trip to Islamabad for negotiations with Iran continues to be on hold after Iran never confirmed their participation. This is an utter embarrassment. Vance was supposed to depart earlier today but instead rushed to the White House for an emergency meeting with Rubio and Hegseth. The ceasefire between the US and Iran will expire any hour. A plane scheduled to take Witkoff and Kushner from Miami to Islamabad never departed.

Does Trump require literally everyone around him to be in the Jeffery Epstein files?

The interesting thing about the current dynamic is that Trump said he would extend the ceasefire indefinitely, and Iran’s response was basically “fuck you, we’re winning” They also threatened retaliation for any more vessels seized… which we just did.

Democratic House Rep. Hakeem Jeffries is getting fired up about Donald Trump's "reckless" war in Iran and Pete Kegbreath: "Why is Pete Hegseth still around? He should have never even been elevated to this position. He's the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in history." 🔥

A fun and wide-ranging discussion of Trump, Kash, Hegseth, et al. What a crew! Good news: The wheels are all coming off the Trump bus. Bad news: We’re passengers on the bus. And we discuss Pope Leo’s admonition to Tim to be nice to his wise elders. youtube.com/watch?v=6R7Tmc…

If you're in Virginia, then take a minute tomorrow to VOTE YES on the election to ensure that only the voters decide who runs the House of Representatives in November. President Obama even endorsed the effort by Virginia Democrats. #VoteYesVirginia And Virginia has same-day voter registration. So, it's not too late for someone who recently moved to Virginia (recent being like up to 15 months ago now), who didn't register for the 2024 election there, to VOTE YES tomorrow, April 21st. A YES VOTE will temporarily give the state's Congressional delegation extra Democratic districts that will ensure Trump's demands for gerrymandered maps in Florida (session next week) and Texas (where Republicans started the gerrymandering fight). In five years, the Virginia, the new maps voters can VOTE YES for tomorrow will expire in 2030. VOTE YES, VIRGINIA. Let the people have their say.

BREAKING: Melania Trump's own Catholic bishop REBUKES Trump and calls him out by name after he launched his disgusting attacks on Pope Leo. This was a development we did NOT see coming... "The Diocese of Palm Beach stands firm with our Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV, and strongly rejects the disrespectful and violent attacks that Donald J. Trump has directed against the Holy Father,” Bishop Manuel de Jesús Rodríguez wrote in a statement reported by Catholic commentator Christopher Hale. “These attacks also constitute a grave violation of the religious freedom enshrined in the Constitution of the United States and, as such, harm the rights of the American Catholic faithful," he continued. "Please pray for the safety of the Holy Father." Melania, a supposed Catholic, has a residence at Mar-a-Lago which is located just 13 miles from the Diocese of Palm Beach. That makes Rodríguez her bishop. If she were a devout Catholic, this statement would shake her to her core. Of course, it's more likely that Melania, like her husband, is a nihilist who believes in nothing beyond personal power and wealth. Trump kicked off his attacks on the Pope by calling him "WEAK on crime" and accusing him of hurting the Catholic Church. He doubled down on his remarks in comments to reporters and now much of the MAGA base has mobilized against the Church — sending formerly Trump-supporting Catholics fleeing from the movement. For his part, Pope Leo has remained totally undaunted by the relentless attacks from the Republican Party, saying that he has "no fear" of the White House and will continue "speaking out loudly of the message of the Gospel.” MAGA hack Michael Flynn reacted with fury to Rodriguez's statement, giving a good indication of where his party is currently at on the issue— "This was at a prominent Catholic Church in Florida today. This type of information warfare against 'MAGA'', against President Trump, is just beginning. It is dangerous, it is very political, it is fifth generational, and most definitely, it is spiritual warfare," the disgraced former National Security Advisor wrote. "This Pope is consciously choosing political sides. He is emerging as a woke globalist instead of a humble servant of Jesus Christ representing the Church of Peter," he added in a lengthy, deranged rant. Of course, Rodriguez didn't spark this feud nor did Pope Leo. The only "spiritual warfare" unfolding here is Trump waging war on all that is good, holy, and moral in the world. This administration's priorities aligns far more with the character of Satan than with the loving teachings of Jesus. If, despite all of the evidence to the contrary, Melania is a faithful, believing Catholic, this development is sure to drive another stake into the heart of her failing marriage to Donald. Please ❤️ and share if you stand with the Catholic Church against Trump!

WHAT?! Trump reportedly tried to use the nuclear codes against Iran but one of his generals refused. This can’t be true, can it? Is this what you voted for?

It’s a complete clusterfuck. Nobody has any idea what’s going on.

LMAO, FBI Director Kash Patel is suing The Atlantic for $250 million for defamation, because they reported that he was so wasted agents had to bust his door down. Keep your eyes on discovery. This dude is clearly UNFIT.

What happened to the combined $63 million that Paramount, Meta, X, and ABC paid to the ‘Trump Presidential Library’ fund after surrendering? It just kinda disappeared. newrepublic.com/article/209254…

New episode of "The Best People" OUT NOW WATCH HERE: youtu.be/6Xh69HTkd24

Rep. Ro Khanna critically dismantles Trump on Fox News, comparing him to President Obama, "Obama actually did his homework... all Donald Trump did is listen to Netanyahu."

Donald Trump’s Energy Secretary admitted gas prices likely won’t fall anytime soon. Trump instantly contradicted him fearing the political consequences of such a statement. This conflict says it all: this administration is in way over its head.
