Votes to acquit Trump of impeachment charges (twice) come back to bite @SenatorWicker on the ass #block-69f61c498f08ab365d7fdce9" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">theguardian.com/world/live/202…

Sorry. This alternative headline writes itself:
Will capitalist United States ever pay back the billions (trillions?) it confiscated from Africans forced into slavery?

It’s funny to think that just because Wickoff and Kushner are rich and close to @RealDonaldTrump that they really don’t know anything more than I might about how to negotiate with the Iranians. 🤣nytimes.com/2026/04/25/wor… via @NYTimes

This evening: @DAGToddBlanche and I are announcing an 11 count indictment against the Southen Poverty Law Center.
Charges include wire fraud, false statements to a federally insured bank, and conspiracy to commit concealment money laundering.
The SPLC allegedly engaged in a massive fraud operation to deceive their donors, enrich themselves, and hide their deceptive operations from the public. They lied to their donors, vowing to dismantle violent extremist groups, and actually turned around and paid the leaders of these very extremist groups - even utilizing the funds to have these groups facilitate the commission of state and federal crimes.
That is illegal – and this is an ongoing investigation against all individuals involved.

Anyone interested in knowing why the U.S. started its own "special military operation" in the Middle East shouldn't waste their time going to Washington. A trip to Jerusalem would be more effective...if you can get a flight and don't mind waiting in line.

.@jamestalarico: I've had a lot of interviews with national media. No one's ever asked me about the cost of housing. No one's asked me about the cost of prescription drugs. The only thing the media wants to ask me about are trans athletes.
The only minority destroying this country is the billionaires. Trans people are 1% of the population. Undocumented people are 1% of the population. We are all focused on the wrong 1%.
Trans people aren't taking away our healthcare. Undocumented people aren't defunding our schools. It's the billionaires and their puppet politicians

Oh yeah. It’s was all the Supreme Leader. All the other Iranians in the regime are great, I’m sure. Israelis Are Tense but Relieved That Iran’s Supreme Leader Is Dead nytimes.com/2026/03/01/wor… via @NYTimes

This seems universal, but I doubt @RealDonaldTrump or the many @GOP sycophants around him would recognize any of it. Falling From Ivy League Grad to Prisoner Expanded My Social Circle nytimes.com/2026/02/22/opi… via @NYTOpinion

America needs reform — again.
We needed it after the Civil War. We needed it during the Great Depression.
Eighty years later, we need it now.
Two failures are breaking the system.
First: gerrymandering. Out of 435 House seats, only about 22 are truly competitive.
That’s not democracy, that’s incumbency protection.
Second: Citizens United. Since 2010, unlimited money has created a separate-but-equal democracy where big business, big pharma, big banks, and tax cuts for the wealthy dominate the agenda.
If you made $50K, you lost benefits. If you made $1M, you got a tax break.
The real question isn’t whether reform is needed — it’s whether politicians can explain it, and whether voters are ready to break the sclerosis and start thinking in 10, 15, 20-year plans again.

This is why @jamestalarico can flip the US Senate seat in Texas. He has been able to remove the politics and make it about the oligarchs vs the people.

.@JamesTalarico: Christian Nationalists walk around with a mouth full of scripture and a heart full of hate.
Don't tell me what you believe, show me how you treat other people, and I'll tell you what you believe.
Jesus didn't tell us to love our churches, our doctrines, or our scriptures. He told us to love our neighbors—regardless of race, class, gender, sexual orientation, or immigration status. When my religion tries to come between me and my neighbor, I will choose my neighbor.
Not once in the entire Bible does Jesus ask us to worship him. All he asks is that we follow him. Love like he loved: welcome the stranger, feed the hungry, heal the sick, and free the oppressed. They will know we are Christians by our love.
