#BREAKING: Rep Raskin: “If you do the math on this…the first thing I did was I divided $1.7 billion by 1600, which is the number of pardoned insurrectionists and rioters there were, and you get just over $1 million. EACH one of them could be given $1 million and then they would have tens of millions left over for other purposes, but he’s basically replenishing the private militia that he pardoned from January 6th just in time for the 2026 elections.”😳

President Trump's $1.776 billion settlement with the IRS is one of the single most corrupt acts in American history. They moved fast to avoid the scrutiny of the judicial process, and very likely violated the Constitution. This is an outrage.

Trump sued his own government for $10 billion. Today he settled with the DOJ he runs and cut the judge out of the process. The deal: a $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund his Attorney General controls, with no court oversight and no transparency. It’s the most corrupt scheme of his presidency.

Today Trump "negotiated" with his private criminal defense lawyer—a man he made AG for this corrupt purpose—the theft of $1.8B in taxpayer money so that it could be given to far-right terrorists in open rebellion against America. It's the most corrupt act by a POTUS in history.

“WE NEED TO LET THEM DO INSIDER TRADING TO FEED THEIR FAMILIES” That was the actual argument just made in defense of politicians trading stocks. Members of Congress make $174,000 a year. The median American income is roughly $63,000. (3x less) Meanwhile the federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour… also unchanged since 2009. And you’re seriously being told politicians need access to insider trading to survive. The system is designed to lead earth to neo-feudalism. And it’s becoming more brazen by the year. Asset ownership consolidates upward. Living standards decline downward. The middle class gets squeezed from both ends and disappears while the elite class accumulates more wealth, more influence, and more protection. Leaving behind a permanent underclass. And a permanent political-financial aristocracy at the top…

Trump is 'dropping' his bogus lawsuit against the IRS in exchange for a slush fund, courtesy of your tax dollars, that he can use to pay off his political allies.   While people drown in high prices & inflation — Trump’s lining his & his buddies’ pockets.   We will fight this.

Trump: -Dropped fraud charges against an Indian billionaire after he hired Trump's personal lawyer -Pardoned Binance's CEO after he boosted Trump's crypto business -Scrapped consumer protections after the airline industry hired Trumpworld lobbyists Pay-to-play corruption.

PabloReports: What do you make of this $1.7 billion slush fund that Trump is proposing for Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, and pardoned fraudsters? Raskin: It’s illegal, unconstitutional, and outrageous. Congress controls the spending of money from the federal government, and we never voted to establish a $1.7 billion fund to pay off insurrectionists and his extremist private militias, and we would never spend money on that. So it needs to be blocked. It’s an absolute corruption and prostitution of the Judgment Fund.

First, Donald Trump sues his own IRS to enrich himself. Now he wants to use billions in taxpayer funds to compensate his allies, including thousands charged for the January 6 insurrection. This is easily the most corrupt regime in U.S. history.

Outright lies. Trump's assets aren't in a blind trust, and he bought and sold individual Nvidia stock in 15 separate transactions totaling millions of dollars. That's what Trump's financial disclosure - which has his signature - says. See for yourself: extapps2.oge.gov/201/Presiden.n…

I’m pro-freedom, pro-law and order, pro-limited government, and pro-the Declaration and the Constitution. And so today I’m a Democrat.

Q: What was it that made you break with Trump? Trump voter: Just seeing the lies. He put us in a war. He's putting up gold statues of himself. When are people going to wake up? All those stupid rallies I went to... I got rid of my Make America Great Again hat. I can't even believe I wore that hat.

52 years ago, Richard Nixon was forced out of office for crimes that now look almost quaint. Today, the same behavior would barely register as a warm-up act for Donald Trump. The bar didn’t just get lowered. It got buried. I sat down with former venture capitalist, innovation and civil society advocate Ted Dintersmith to talk about how America went from Watergate ending a presidency to watching a terminal liar turn scandal into strategy. And why pretending this is normal may be the most dangerous lie of all.

Republicans can now tell every voter that the leader of their party is going to make them pay $1.7 billion of their hard-earned money in taxes to Oathkeepers & Proud Boys convicted of crimes on J6 as well as others convicted of beating police. All of us have to pay J6 criminals.

Are we still a democracy?

🚨BREAKING: The President of the United States just accused a journalist of “treason” for reporting facts he didn’t like. Not for leaking classified information… like Trump has been accused of doing… or helping an enemy nation, or committing an actual crime. For reporting facts. This is the same authoritarian playbook we’ve watched throughout history… attack the press, call journalists “enemies,” then label criticism as a crime. And no, Mr. “I love the Constitution…” criticism of a president is not treason. Unless you are an authoritarian.

🚨 Pope Leo XIV just declared the Iran War unjust. Called it a war crime. Said it is “not solving anything.” Then told Americans directly: call Congress. End this war. The same Pope Trump called weak on crime. The same Pope Trump fabricated a nuclear quote from. The same Pope whose brother received a bomb threat after Trump attacked him. The same Pope Speaker Johnson lectured on theology. 1.4 billion Catholics heard their leader call this war a crime.

Lieu: The Supreme Court decision was a disgrace. Chief Justice Roberts has now led the most partisan Supreme Court in U.S. history. It appears that every decision they make happens to benefit Republicans electorally. Roberts is a political actor.

Trump pardoned hundreds of sex predators & violent criminals who beat cops on January 6th. Now, they’re back on our streets—raping, assaulting, and murdering Americans. I don’t want to hear a damn thing from my Republican colleagues about “law and order.”

I regret to inform you the Acting AG is no longer America’s attorney, he’s trump’s attorney. @DAGToddBlanche works under a giant banner of trump’s face. He said “I love you, sir” to trump. He doesn’t enforce the rule of law, he enforces the rule of trump. November is coming.
