People readily swapped out their religious beliefs to worship at the altar of a man who doesn’t believe in kindness or decency. MAGA Republican politicians, which is to say virtually everyone in the Senate and the House, fear Trump more than they care about truth and justice.

Russia is providing Iran with the information it needs to attack U.S. forces in the Middle East, including aircraft and ships.

We have links with Russia, girls from Russia, money from Russia, deals and transactions with Russia, contacts with Russian intelligence, news reports exploring contacts with Russia, and an official investigation from the government of Poland into an Epstein-Russia connection.

The Epstein files, riddled as they are with references to Trump, are also riddled with references to Russian girls and women, Russian operatives, and Russian president Vladimir Putin.

Trump’s new national security policy threw traditional U.S. allies overboard and favored policies that Russian government officials praised as β€œlargely consistent” with their own.

Throughout his 2nd term, Trump advanced policies that help Russia, pausing weapons shipments to Ukraine, easing sanctions on Russia, and pushing a peace deal favorable to Russia. Last summer, he welcomed Putin to America. Administration officials have parroted Russian propaganda.

Not since Adolf Hitler blew his brains out in a bunker beneath the garden of the German Reich Chancellery on April 30, 1945, have the lives of so many people around the world been so buffeted by the psychosis of a single man.

Pete Hegseth attempts to distract by being a Nazi

Nazi Pete wants you all to get distracted by his Sieg Heil instead of his very public capitulation to Russia, litany of war crimes, and failing Iran war strategy.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

The Supreme Court declined to hear cases brought by an anti-voting group seeking to weaken the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA). The group argued the law be reinterpreted to require more aggressive voter purges. The justices preserved the pro-voting interpretation of the NVRA

The US economy lost 92,000 jobs in February and the unemployment rate rose to 4.4%. Economists were expecting a net gain of 60,000 jobs last month while December’s job gains of 48,000 were revised down to a loss of 17,000 jobs. This is bad, folks.

Hegseth is suggesting the illegal war may last weeks. The fact CENTCOM is requesting staffing for 6 months is a better indicator of how long the hostilities will last. The US is not the only party in the war and may not be able to unilaterally declare a cessation of hostilities.

The firing of Noem and Bovino, the withdrawal of ICE, and Trump’s public retreat are due, in part, to the steadfast resistance of everyday Americans who have had enough. A job well done!

The people of Minnesota made their stand in the coldest months of the year, braving temperatures that sometimes dipped to 30 degrees below zero.

The people of Minnesota refused to be intimidated. Instead, they formed the equivalent of a citizens ’ mutual aid society, protesting, ride-sharing, grocery shopping, and serving as the community’s eyes and ears, watching and listening for the roving gangs of paramilitary thugs.

Hey, Kristi Noem, don’t let the door hit you on the way out. Here’s your legacy: corruption and chaos. Parents and children tear-gassed. Moms and nurses, U.S. citizens getting shot. Now that you’re gone, don’t think you get to just walk away. You will still be held accountable.

Lawmakers focused on the corruption in DHS, which now commands more than $150 billion thanks to the Republicans’ One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Lawmakers referred to a November 2025 ProPublica story of reporters tracing a $220 million contract for an ad campaign featuring Noem.

Noem'd lawlessness and corruption represented the larger lawlessness and corruption of the Trump administration.

Days after Trump launched a major military operation in the Middle East without consulting Congress, angry lawmakers of both parties exposed the lawlessness and corruption taking place in the department under Noem’s direction.

The Williamson County Republican Party chair admitted that while she could explain why they had made the change, β€œat the end of the day, it’s because we can. It’s legal. It’s something we’re entitled to do, and it’s something that our party would like us to do.”

Local GOP officials in Dallas and Williamson counties changed the location of election precincts for Democratic voters, without notice, while keeping Republican precinct locations the same. Republicans have even given up trying to justify this and are playing bare-knuckle politics as usual.

Trump hasn't endorsed either Republican candidate, though ideologically and spiritually Paxton is a more natural fit, while Cornyn has been critical of some of Trump’s policies. Trump’s silence is a tacit acknowledgement that backing the wrong candidate now could prove to be costly later

Judge Richard K. Eaton of the United States Court of International Trade in Manhattan ordered the Trump administration to begin refunding more than $130 billion in tariffs that were invalidated by the U.S. Supreme Court last month.

Thousands of American citizens are now stranded across the Middle East because the Trump regime did not bother to plan their evacuation.
