Key Biden-era regulations designed to protect the nation’s drinking water from the most dangerous cancer-causing per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, have been removed by the Trump administration. cnn.it/42H6Ct6

Marc Elias is forecasting exactly what is likely to go down in the midterms and he isn’t sugarcoating it. We have to get every one we know in the game y’all. Complacency has no place in a Democracy, LFG!!

Alligator Alcatraz is closing after one year and wasting $1B to house 1400 immigrants. That's an eye-popping $714,285 per occupant. Everything this administration does is filled with fraud and waste. wlrn.org/2026-05-14/des…

The United States already owns an official ballroom. It is Mellon Auditorium and sits, appropriately, on Constitution Ave. And, fantastically, it was just renovated in 2023. So, it's time to stop talking about a $1 Billion dollar ballroom. eventsatmellon.com/auditorium-gal…

I’m a relentless optimist but I can’t lie, the fact that we were incapable of quarantining A CRUISE SHIP AT SEA for the good of the entire human species makes me think maybe we’re not gonna make it

FIFA painted over a beautiful, long-standing mural in Downtown Dallas. It was gifted to the city by marine life artist & conservationist Wyland in the 90s as a reminder to protect our beloved oceans. What an unnecessary loss, especially given no matches are actually in Dallas.

In America, billionaires can get charges of "elaborate corruption and fraud" dropped entirely if they hire one of the President's personal lawyers and lay $10 billion on the table. What the hell are we doing here, folks?

Steve Harness: “When is a reporter gonna snap back and say don’t you fucking talk to me that way? I’m a goddamned adult. I’m here working. You work for us, asshole. Go fuck yourself. Somebody, for the love of God, I will buy the Pulitzer for you if you will just tell this man how fucking dare you, do not talk to me that way”

A reminder that Jimmy Carter sold his peanut farm to avoid conflicts of interest. Now we have a president openly buying and selling stocks and crypto while his family business keeps making business deals all over the world that directly profit him, and it’s all treated as normal. Meanwhile, Republicans like James Comer and Jim Jordan are still obsessing over Hunter Biden’s paintings and Hillary Clinton’s emails. Drain. The. Swamp

*THE* defining issue of Biden's term in office was grocery prices. The media never shut the fuck up about (take your pick) milk, eggs, bacon, etc and yet Trump is INTENTIONALLY CAUSING PRICES TO SKYROCKET and he's getting a fraction of the heat Biden received. Fucking infuriating

3,700 trades by a sitting president

The sentence that should not be forgettable: Vought said he prepared Trump's executive actions so the president would not have to think about "whether something is legal or doable or moral." That is not a staffer describing efficient workflow. That is the architect of the second Trump administration describing his function as the removal of legal and ethical friction before the president encountered it. He was not hired to consider whether actions were legal. He was hired to make sure Trump never had to ask. ProPublica got the recordings. That is what the recordings say.

“He was just joking” “You’re taking him out of context” “I didn’t hear him say that” - Republicans, probably

EXCLUSIVE: Last year Kash Patel and his gf flew on an FBI G5 to Philly to see George Strait & Chris Stapleton from a private stadium suite that costs up to $50,000. He won’t say who paid. nytimes.com/2026/05/15/us/… via @NYTimes

🚨 WOWWW — UTAH — the brilliant young women @kevinolearytv 🤥 accused of being Chinese ops just discovered Utah speaker of the house Mike Schultz (Republican) bought 640 acres of land right next to the data center site just 2 months before it was announced. Incredible find.

Chief Justice Roberts says the court isn't political. This week, six justices "read" 107 pages of legal briefing in 38 minutes and let Alabama gerrymander its congressional map mid-election. The stopwatch says otherwise.

Hack Albertson, a Marine veteran, is part of a select group from the Paralyzed Veterans of America trained to dive on the Arizona annually to check on the condition of the wreck. He said it was inappropriate for Patel and other political figures to snorkel or dive at the memorial. “It’s like having a bachelor party at a church. It’s hallowed ground,” he said. “It needs to be treated with the solemnity it deserves.”

Harrison Ford: “Humanity is a part of nature, not above it. We need cultural change. We need to extend social justice. We need to respect and elevate the indigenous people that are being marginalized, and in many cases, killed in cold blood. The world you’re stepping into, the world my generation left you, is a real mess”

This is actually fucking crazy

Let me get this straight. Trump sued his own IRS for $10 billion. His own Justice Department is now considering settling that case. And one of the terms on the table is that the IRS drops all audits of Trump, his family, and his businesses PERMANENTLY. He’s using the full weight of the federal government to protect himself and his family from accountability and potentially pay himself BILLIONS of your tax dollars. nytimes.com/2026/05/12/bus…
