@NateOnTheHill Used to be true, but no longer. The Right in the age of Trump has descended into a denial of objective truth beyond anything on the Left. Even simple basic facts (like the number of people at an inauguration) are now a matter of opinion and based only on will.

This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it. Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago. IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued. The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk. The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit. Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.”  Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million. The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out. This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president. Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues? nytimes.com/2026/05/19/adm…

No nation, no society, and no international order can call itself just and humane if it measures its success solely by power or prosperity while neglecting those who live at the margins. Indeed, Christ’s love for the least and the forgotten compels us to reject every form of selfishness that leaves the poor and the vulnerable invisible.

I am by nature an optimistic person. Even in the darkest moments, I usually believe there is a political path forward, an answer to the most difficult obstacles, and a way to eventually break cycles of fear and hatred. But when I watch the continuous wave of organized terror against Palestinian civilians in the West Bank — especially in the villages of South Hebron Hills — I find myself unable to answer one simple question: How do we bring this to an end? And who is supposed to defend these innocent civilians? 12 Palestinians have already been killed in this wave of violence. Hundreds have been wounded. Homes, cars, farms, and livelihoods destroyed. Entire communities are living under daily fear. Armed settler groups operate openly, often under the eyes of soldiers, while Palestinian families, shepherds, and children are left completely exposed. No society can accept civilians living this way indefinitely. No political future can survive while lawlessness, revenge, and dehumanization continue expanding on the ground. Who will stop this before it becomes completely irreversible?

שנים ארוכות שישראל פועלת לגירוש התושבים הפלסטינים בדרום הר חברון. מגמה זו התעצמה עוד יותר לאחר אוקטובר 2023, ומאז נרשמו מאות תקיפות מאורגנות נגד תושבים ורועי צאן מקומיים. כך, רק במהלך חודש ינואר 2026 בלבד דווח על למעלה מ-200 תקיפות של מתנחלים נגד פלסטינים בכפרי האזור. במהלך תקופה זו מתנחלים שפלשו לאדמות חקלאיות בבעלות פלסטינית פרטית אף הרגו שני תושבים. מיליציות מתנחלים פועלות כזרוע לא פורמלית של המדינה: חמושים בנשק צבאי, רכובים על טרקטורונים וסוסים, מתנחלים פולשים לקהילות תחת אבטחה של כוחות צבא, שמעלימים עין מהאלימות או לוקחים בה חלק פעיל. האלימות בדרום הר חברון היא חלק ממדיניות הטיהור האתני שישראל מבצעת בכל הגדה המערבית. לקריאת הדיווח המלא >> btselem.org/hebrew/video/2…

Thomas Massie famously said he wondered about people who voted for him, Ron Paul, Rand Paul and Trump. "They weren't voting for libertarian ideas—they were voting for the craziest son of a bitch in the race. And Donald Trump won best in class, as we had up until he came along."

The outrage over Ben Gvir's video is loud. Netanyahu called it "not in line with Israel's values." The foreign minister called it disgraceful. "This is not the face of Israel." Spare us the hypocrisy. This is the same government that has not touched Israeli settlers who have murdered over 16 Palestinians since the start of this year. The same ministers who have publicly stated their plan is to ethnically cleanse Palestinians from the West Bank and Gaza. This is the same government whose Finance Minister Smotrich stood on a hill overlooking the Christian town of Beit Sahour in January, inaugurated an illegal settlement built on Palestinian Christian-owned land, land that was once meant for a Palestinian children's hospital, and declared their plan is ethnic cleansing. This is the same government that has done nothing as settler terrorists attacked the Christian village of Taybeh over 200 times. While you read this, settlers are at the entrance of Taybeh, harassing its residents. Ben Gvir and Smotrich are not rogue actors. They are executing Israeli government policy. The only thing that upset Israeli officials and propagandists today was that it was filmed, and that the victims weren't Palestinian.

Donald Trump keeps classified national-security documents after leaving office, refuses to return them when asked, and he walks. Former prosecutor keeps a copy of a report on Trump's misconduct, and he gets indicted. Trump justice.

According to the 75-page manifesto tied to the San Diego Islamic Center attack, here are the facts about the shooters based on their own words: They hated Jews. They also hated Islam. They were not trans, they were incels. They hated women. Their hatred for women was only surpassed by their hatred for Jews. They hated Black people. They hated all immigrants. They hated gay and trans people. They were not MAGA. They did not like Trump, and they did not identify with the right. They openly encouraged the left to take out Trump and JD Vance. How did we reach such an insane level of radicalization that literal kids are carrying out attacks and then taking their own lives afterward?

HORRIFIC: Last night at 4:00 am Palestinian time, Israeli settlers attacked the town of Halhul in the West Bank, setting multiple vehicles on fire and attempting to burn a family alive while they were asleep. Imagine waking up to people trying to burn you and your family alive.

Within one 24 hour period, Trump: - got out of a $100 million IRS fine - secured "immunity" from all future tax investigations for his family and friends - created a $1.8 billion slush fund for lawbreaking supporters - was reported for likely insider trading worth nearly $1 billion All of the obvious things to say about this are true. It's bad. Nobody even tries to defend it. The closest thing to a defense you get is something about how "but Democrats suck" and "woke was also bad," which is not a defense, but rather a kind of moral blank check made out to the administration to give them the right to do anything. But what I'm most curious about is whether this sort of lurid corruption creates a countermovement that successfully returns government to rule of law or whether it's establishing a norm of executive imperialism that every future administration will use to achieve its ends, which can always be justified by the moral blank check of "the other side is worse, so let us do whatever we want."

This is so corrupt that the lawyers who crafted this should be disbarred & removed, the acting AG who signed it should be disbarred & removed, and the president who orchestrated it all should be impeached & removed & finally at long last made irrelevant. Staggering corruption
PBS News@NewsHour

The U.S. government has agreed to drop any tax claims and audits of President Trump, his sons and the Trump organization, according to a letter signed by acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. It comes a day after the government announced a nearly $1.8 billion “Anti-Weaponization Fund” to compensate some of the president’s allies. @AliRogin has the latest.

Trump betrayed his voters on abortion, affordability, wars of choice, Epstein transparency, the national debt, and corruption. @RepThomasMassie is loyal on these issues. Yet he’s the one the cult accuses of betrayal. Defeating this Orwellian groupthink requires supporting Massie.
Benny Johnson@bennyjohnson

JD Vance perfectly explains why Republican voters should NEVER support Thomas Massie: Massie sides with Democrats 1 out of every 4 votes. Massie constantly votes AGAINST Trump’s agenda. Trump won Massie’s district by nearly 40 (!!!) points. Massie betrayed his voters. The end
