This is the rest of us who love democracy since Monday and the next four years.

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach. The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

"The world is a casino," says the guy who bankrupted three of them. The world is next.

#BREAKING: Psaki: “Back when Joe Biden was in office, every MAGA talking head was OBSESSED with the idea that the son of a president might be profiting off of the presidency. They were shocked, they were incensed, they were pearl-clutching until they broke those pearls. They demanded accountability…Let’s fast forward to today, shall we? That’s right. In the middle of a war that the president started, his adult son is the chief strategy advisor of a company that just so happens to be winning multi million dollar Pentagon contracts.”🙄🤦‍♀️

Trump and his family have made over $9 billion during his presidency. Their corruption is out of control.

MASSIVE: 🇺🇸 The BBC just validated everything we've been saying. A clear pattern of trades right before major Trump announcements. Iran war. Tariff reversals. Policy shifts. We tracked a whale for weeks. 0 losses. 11 wins. 100% win rate. You would go to prison for trading on a tip from your cousin. They front-run war decisions with billion dollar bets. Now the BBC has the receipts. Nobody will be investigated. Nobody will be charged. The game is rigged. And now the world knows it.

The Trump family has made $4 billion off the presidency. Crypto: $3.02B Persian Gulf deals: $425.8M Qatari jet: $150M Legal fees/merch: $127.7M Mar-a-Lago: $125M Corporate deals: $91M Hanoi hotel: $40M Truth Social: $25M Don Jr: $19.6M Unprecedented kleptocracy.

Ossoff: Remember, while you pay more for everything, the first family’s wealth is growing by billions of dollars because they are crooks, and everybody knows it.

$1.5 BILLION. Let me say it again - a $1.5 BILLION BET. Bigger than any futures purchases made at the time. 5 minutes before Trump's post. Who was it? Trump? A family member? A White House staffer? This is corruption. Mind blowing corruption.

Absolute insanity. A CNN panel reveals the ONLY source claiming Iran was building 11 nukes was Steve Witkoff, a real estate developer with zero intelligence background. The actual DNI testified the exact opposite. They started a war based on a developer's lie!

Absolute bombshell. John Bolton admits the administration completely forgot to secure the Strait of Hormuz before starting a war. He reveals the Secretary of Energy didn't even think it would affect oil prices. The incompetence of these warmongers is staggering.

Jeff Bezos, worth $234 billion, plans to replace 600,000 Amazon workers with robots. Now, he wants to spend $100 billion to fully automate not just his warehouses, but factories in the U.S & other countries. Oligarchs are waging all out war against workers. FIGHT BACK.

The maximum an individual can legally donate to a candidate in an election is $3300. Elon donated $277M to Trump in 2024 because of loopholes rich people use to buy elections. If you care about election integrity — overturn Citizens United so our elections aren’t auctions.

Reporter: If you could say something to Trump, what would it be? PA voter: You’re a worthless pile of sh*t. Reporter: How many times did you vote for him? PA voter: 3 times. That was my bad. Apparently I’m an idiot.

BOMBSHELL: Iran offered to give away ALL of its enriched uranium during peace talks in Geneva. The British thought it was a credible offer. Hours later, Trump started bombing Iran anyway. The US didn't want peace, they wanted war.

Costco is now demanding that Trump pay them back for his tariffs so they can refund all of their customers.

AOC: He impulsively went in on Venezuela. He impulsively went in on Iran. It led to increased global instability everywhere he goes. And every time he’s done that, it has been consistent with a spike or a revelation in what is happening with the Epstein files. I think that he feels existentially tied to it.  And I actually think that it is one reason that he must be removed from office, because if the Epstein files have such a hold on President Trump and this administration that they are willing to plunge us and risk world war in order to save themselves politically, that is the definition of someone who cannot make objective decisions for the American people.

Musk, worth $829 billion, owns X. Bezos, worth $234 billion, owns The Washington Post & Twitch. Zuckerberg, worth $231 billion, owns Facebook, Instagram & WhatsApp. And now Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, is about to control CNN, CBS, TikTok & HBO. Yes, this is oligarchy.

Why the hell is there a banner of Charlie Kirk on the Department of Education? Why is CHARLIE KIRK’s face on the Department of EDUCATION. WHY IS CHARLIE KIRK ON THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION?!?!?!?

Rachel Maddow, on the pedophile führer and Netanyahu striking Iran: "Follow the money." 😳👇
