In @nytopinion “Americans should be cleareyed about what the president is doing. He is taking their money and showering it on criminals,” the editorial board writes. nyti.ms/4dyC9Cj

BOMBSHELL CONFIRMED: The Supreme Court corruption scandal that was lingering from a year ago? We can now call it CONFIRMED today. Chief Justice John Roberts' wife pocketed $10.3 million recruiting for law firms with cases before his court. He illegally labeled it "salary" instead of commission on disclosure forms. Justice Clarence Thomas took $500,000+ luxury yacht trips, $133,000 real estate deals, and decades of private jet vacations from billionaire Harlan Crow—all hidden from the public. Justice Neil Gorsuch sold a $1.8 million property to the CEO of Greenberg Traurig—a law firm with 22 cases before the Court—just nine days after his confirmation. He left the buyer's name BLANK on his disclosure forms. Republicans: "The Supreme Court is impartial!" The Supreme Court: a billionaire-funded cash register. Three justices. Three scandals. Tens of millions in hidden money and favors. This isn't a court. It's a corruption convention with robes. Tell me again why we should trust these people with our rights?

🚨 THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT 18 U.S. Code § 595: "Whoever, being a person employed in any administrative position by the United States, or by any department or agency thereof,... uses his official authority for the purpose of interfering with, or affecting, the nomination or the election of any candidate for,... Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both." According to the Brennan Center For Justice: "A presidential declaration of national emergency unlocks powers contained in 137 different laws, but none gives the president authority over elections. Even the Insurrection Act, which is the most potent of the president’s authorities to deploy the military domestically, does not permit troops deployed under the law to take illegal actions — which would include interfering in elections." 👇👇👇👇

BREAKING: We just won a preliminary injunction in our case with @FreedomofPress requiring the Trump administration to follow the Presidential Records Act and preserve records for posterity. This is a huge win against their absurd stance that the law is unconstitutional.

White House must comply with Presidential Records Act, judge rules dlvr.it/TSdpbQ

BLANCHE: Do you think President Trump called and asked me to go interview Ghislaine Maxwell? REED: Yes I do, frankly. Because the deal was in. You're the president's consigliere.

Donald Trump is running the greatest grift in American history. It’s corruption at a scale we've never seen in our lifetime.

"La NATO è un'alleanza difensiva e i russi lo sanno benissimo, altrimenti non avrebbero sguarnito la regione militare di Leningrado per attaccare l'Ucraina". La considerazione del generale Grynkewich sembra più una minaccia per Nonno.

Democrats are going to force Senate Republicans to vote on amendment after amendment about Trump’s ballroom, about Trump’s corrupt slush fund, and the rising costs of Trump’s war. They will not be able to hide.

Breaking News: Two officers who defended the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, sued to block the creation of the Trump administration’s $1.8 billion fund that would reward rioters and groups that committed violence on behalf of President Trump. nyti.ms/4v3rirl

He’s trying to bury his tax returns just like he’s trying to bury the Epstein Files. This is the most obscenely corrupt and morally bankrupt administration in American history. And it’s not even close.

BREAKING: Harry Dunn and Daniel Hodges, two law enforcement officers who clashed with Jan. 6 insurrectionists, have sued to block the Trump 'slush fund'. They're asking a federal judge to find the creation of the fund illegal and reverse any transfers that the Treasury Department has made to the DOJ to implement it. ms.now/rachel-maddow-…

I.R.S. officials prepared a 25-page memorandum outlining what they saw as flaws in Mr. Trump’s suit and advising the Justice Department to move to dismiss it. I gifted this so you can read it. nytimes.com/2026/05/19/adm…

L’accordo raggiunto da Trump con il dipartimento giustizia USA sembra una barzelletta: nel Paese che dovrebbe essere la culla della cultura liberale allo Stato viene impedito di verificare la correttezza delle dichiarazioni fiscali del Presidente e della sua famiglia. Una sorta di salvacondotto fiscale per il presente e per gli anni a venire. Privilegio che forse,dico forse, hanno solo i dittatori e che avrebbe fatto felice Al Capone

-Gas prices are skyrocketing -Grocery prices are increasing -Mortgage rates are surging What are trump and Republicans focused on? A $1.77 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund for criminals who supported trump.

The DOJ just said the IRS will no longer pursue any claims it may have against Trump, his family members and his companies over unpaid taxes. Pure. Unadulterated. Corruption. And self-dealing. The tax-dodging President gets himself and his whole family a tax break, thanks to Todd Blanche.

"Taiwan non è mai stata una nazione e non lo sarà mai. Cina e Taiwan sono un solo stato, l'indipendenza è un'illusione incompatibile con la pace come l'acqua col fuoco". I risultati catastrofici della visita di Trumpet a Pechino.

This is atrocious. Donald Trump’s former personal criminal defense lawyer, now serving as Acting Attorney General of the United States, signed a one-page document in which the United States government “RELEASES, WAIVES, ACQUITS, and FOREVER DISCHARGES” Donald Trump, his sons, his businesses, his trusts, his affiliates, and his family from any federal claim, prosecution, audit, damages, or action of any kind. Permanent immunity for the President of the United States, his family, and his entire business empire. This is in addition to the $1.8 billion dollar January 6 Slush Fund to pay people Trump says were politically targeted, including the roughly 1,600 people charged in connection with the attack on the Capitol. This is the most corrupt act by a sitting President in modern American history. It is not close. I will use every tool I have in Congress to fight it. I will support every lawsuit challenging it. This must not stand.

Trump didn’t just pardon his followers who stormed the U.S. Capitol. He’s now set them up for payments through a slush fund he created to reward his allies—out of your tax dollars. You could not make this up.

Scott MacFarlane reports that Democracy Forward has formally demanded the Trump administration preserve all records related to Trump’s $10 billion lawsuit against his own IRS. That lawsuit was abruptly dismissed before a federal judge could determine whether it was a collusive attempt to use the courts to bless a taxpayer-funded payout. Democracy Forward CEO Skye Perryman says the newly created fund is “completely unlawful” and that legal action is coming. As Perryman put it: “Preserve your documents, because we’re going to see you in court.”
