100% correct. My legislation — the Stop Corporate Homebuyers Act — does exactly this. But every single Republican in the Arizona House sided with Wall Street and voted to kill my bill.

A direct point by prominent author John Fugelsang. He confirms the US military verified Iran was fully complying with the nuclear deal. The Trump administration intentionally destroyed a working peace treaty and is now burning a billion dollars a day to appease Netanyahu.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 Former U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton: "It is shocking that Trump said no one informed him that Iran could close the Strait of Hormuz. I find it unbelievable that one of the fundamental pillars of geopolitical strategy in the Middle East was ignored. That was the first thing we assumed Iran would do. It is their main tool of global leverage. We are now seeing the consequences of a foreign policy driven by impulse rather than strategy.

Viktor Orban rigged the Hungarian election system in a way that guaranteed he could not lose. Trump has followed Orban's methods exactly. On Sunday, Orban lost. He lost hugely. Do not let anyone tell you it's hopeless. Bring down this would-be king.

It’s continually wild to me that Donald Trump by himself has been worse for the global economy than a pandemic that killed 30 million people

This chart is going viral right now. It shows U.S. retail prices before and after Trump’s tariffs. Both domestic and imported goods turned sharply upward the moment tariffs hit. The pre-tariff trend was heading in the opposite direction. The chart is real. The data is solid. The more interesting question isn’t whether tariffs raise prices. They do. Every economist agrees on that. The question is whether the pain is the point. You won’t find that part in the chart. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

140 police officers were beaten. With flagpoles. Batons. Baseball bats. Four died. Today the Justice Department erased the convictions of the men who organized it. And called it justice.

Every time I think about what these two brilliant women could’ve done for America, and how the nation said, “Nah— we’ll take the corrupt, racist, sex-abusing, demented, malignant narcissist”— it fills me with indescribable sadness and rage.

so ur telling me trump, the sitting president of the usa, threatened the pope, the pope said, "check urself before you wreck yourself", and in retaliation trump ai imaged itself as Jesus...? And THEN Iran said, "Mr. pope and co. that's fucked up. not even we would do that bc Jesus is holy. sorry u have 2 deal with this". this is the timeline i live in. THIS IS THE TIMELINE I LIVE IN?!

My half-baked idea is that we should have recall elections in this country for the President of the United States. It's ridiculous that the power lies solely with the president's own cabinet or Congress to remove the president. It's unsustainable, and we should come up with a way to put the power back in the hands of the people.

Congress controls the purse. That's not a suggestion. It's the Constitution. The Trump Administration moved $1.25 billion to his “Board of Peace” with no congressional authorization. I introduced the PEACE Act to put a stop to it.

So, @joerogan probably won’t see this post that’s going viral on Facebook. It’s too long to copy & paste, & it took way more than 4 screenshots But I think it’s essential reading for everyone, because ALL of the lying MAGA Influencers need to face legal consequences /1

When Adele went undercover in disguise to compete in an Adele impersonation contest

Pam Bondi refused to show up for today’s Oversight deposition — defying our lawful subpoena. We couldn’t care less that she was fired from her job as Attorney General. She is responsible for leading the White House cover-up of the Epstein files. Since she didn’t show up, Oversight Democrats will move to hold her in contempt of Congress. The survivors deserve justice — and we will get answers. Enough is enough.

🚨MUST-WATCH: Lawrence O'Donnell demolished the 'both parties are the same' myth in 3 brutal minutes. Eric Swalwell was forced to resign immediately by Dems after explosive sexual assault allegations. After a month of Republican silence, Tony Gonzales resigned literally an hour later after pressure mounted to expel both members. The parties are NOT the same. One protects victims. The other protects their own.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson didn't invoke Weimar Germany as a rhetorical flourish. She cited a specific scholar by name in a footnote: Ernst Fraenkel, a Jewish labor lawyer who observed the Nazi legal system from the inside, smuggled his manuscript out of Berlin in 1938, and published "The Dual State" at the University of Chicago in 1941. Fraenkel's framework is precise. The Nazis didn't immediately collapse Germany's legal system. They left courts functioning - particularly in contracts and economic matters - while placing Jews and political enemies in a separate lawless zone where no legal protection applied. Most Germans lived in the law-bound "normative state." The targeted lived in the "prerogative state." The facade of normalcy was the mechanism of control. Jackson invoked Fraenkel to name what the court's Republican majority is doing in real time. In 21 consecutive shadow docket cases, the six conservative justices have let Trump opt out of the law - often with no explanation given at all. They blessed ICE racial profiling without citing a single legal justification. They allowed Trump to ignore $4 billion in congressionally appropriated foreign aid. They stripped lower courts of the ability to issue universal relief, meaning only those with resources to file individual lawsuits get protection from illegal presidential action. Constitutional law professor Evan Bernick put it plainly: "The court is adjusting the law to make place for arbitrary power." Jackson's dissent is not hyperbole. A footnote citing a 1941 manuscript about Nazi legal architecture is a Supreme Court justice blowing the cover on what her colleagues are building.

Senator Cory Booker is getting heated: "If we allow this as a Congress, this is the new standard. Donald Trump can wage war on Cuba next, for 30-60 days, before having to consult Congress. Donald Trump could invade Greenland. These are not hypotheticals. He has said he's going to take Cuba. He said he's going to take Greenland...We are in this situation, not just because of Donald Trump, but because of his congressional enablers."

"I'm just contemplating the fact that one moron, one psychotic moron, one capricious idiot, has completely bollocksed up the global economy not only to the detriment of his own people, but the detriment of the planet. ... It's like how much more of this can the planet take?"
