Donald Trump needs to be impeached and removed on more counts of crimes against democracy, humanity, and the nation than we can count.
Democrats must win the midterms and get rid of this menace.
A federal judge appointed to the bench by Donald Trump issued a 111-page ruling Monday, finding that the president's own immigration enforcement machine likely ran an unconstitutional racial profiling operation targeting Black and Latino Minnesotans.
Civilians have had apparent seizures. One had his eyes roll back. Another had ribs broken.
“I felt like I was going to pass out and die,” said a 16-year-old citizen put in a chokehold.
The government won’t say if any agents have been punished.

John Oliver on right, mid-speech. On left, a ProPublica headline dated December 17, 2025 reads: “Inside the Trump Administration’s Man-Made Hunger Crisis.” Below it, an article excerpt reads: “Pregnant women … so desperate for calories that they ate mud.”
3/ Finally, Oliver brought up our reporting on how cuts to aid caused an American-made hunger crisis.
At one refugee camp, mothers had to choose which of their children to feed, and pregnant women were so desperate for calories that some resorted to eating mud: propub.li/4bzIaPi
On right, John Oliver talking to the viewer. On left, a ProPublica headline from February 15, 2025 says: “Trump Official Destroying USAID Secretly Met With Christian Nationalists Abroad in Defiance of U.S. Policy.” An article excerpt below says: "... where he attempted to delay or halt dozens of programs …”
2/ Oliver later referred to our reporting about former USAID lead Peter Marocco.
Officials told us they saw Marocco’s gutting of the agency as a campaign of retribution against those who opposed his foreign policy agenda in the first Trump administration: propub.li/47CkZ4u
John Oliver (on right) gestures with his hands as he speaks. On left, a ProPublica headline from December 15, 2025 reads: “Trump Officials Celebrated With Cake After Slashing Aid. Then People Died of Cholera.” An article excerpt below says: "... turning rows red, yellow or green every few seconds, never asking a single question.”
1/ On yesterday’s @lastweektonight.com about USAID, John Oliver cited several of our investigations.
First up was our reporting about how DOGE operatives had arbitrarily cut aid programs, in some cases by literally clicking through a spreadsheet: propub.li/4cCsSKP
The White House is working to dredge up another election conspiracy with eight months on the clock until midterms.

Three brothers, including two of the nation’s most successful luxury real estate brokers, were convicted of sex trafficking charges Monday after a five-week trial over accusations that they used drugs and force to rape scores of women they had dazzled with their wealth and opulent lifestyle.

Exclusive: Lawrence Summers has lost his affiliation with America’s leading economics organization, the latest consequence for the former Treasury secretary stemming from his ties to the late Jeffrey Epstein. on.wsj.com/4bzwjAM
Prosecutors eventually dropped charges against the two guards on duty the night Epstein died in jail.
A Noem aide spent $3 million on pickup trucks emblazoned with the ICE name & logo, which ICE agents -- notoriously averse to advertising their presence -- will not drive, so they're just sitting in a lot, useless. The contract went to a Trump donor who owns a regional Chevy dealership.
Mike Johnson loses another Republican as California congressman bolts from GOP

California Rep. Kevin Kiley announced his immediate departure from the Republican Party.
Several people who cast a single mistaken ballot were sent to prison for years. A Georgia Republican official who voted illegally nine times? Just a $5,000 fine. Apparently “election integrity” is a lot more forgiving when the offender has the right party affiliation.

There are levels 💁🏾♀️
A newly-surfaced document published in the DOJ's Epstein database reveals that an inmate once told the FBI that he overheard prison guards talking about covering up Epstein's death on the morning the sex offender died.

1/ After examining Epstein's corpse, Baden was convinced he died by homicide.
Baden said he has never seen 3 fractures in a suicidal hanging as a medical examiner for 25 yrs, nor while serving for decades as NY state commission that oversees prison deaths.

Former President Clinton’s deposition raised even more questions about Trump’s relationship with Epstein.
What’s clear is that the Trump administration is engaging in a massive cover-up and they must be held accountable.
The daily number of kids in ICE cages has increased sixfold under the second Trump administration, according to new reporting from the @themarshallproject.org.
Democrats have offered to fund all of DHS with the exception of ICE and CBP, but the GOP won’t allow a vote.
Demand that your Democratic Members of Congress keep holding the line on DHS funding and refuse to expand Trump's capacity to terrorize our communities just because he decided to bomb Iran.
ICE has made itself so toxic that it can’t use the garish new marked vehicles it purchased for millions of dollars.

Crypto has been Epstein’s way of wanting to hide his pedophile enterprise. He got with Tech bros to create it. Even though many have gotten arrested for scams. Follow and find your place to relax.
Can we talk about Epstein now?

Trump continues to deploy troops to the Middle East to fight a foreign war with Iran, as gas prices shoot through the roof as we are seeing horrific job losses, Trump is playing golf with his billionaire friends in the comfort of his own home, while the Epstein files remain hidden.
In 2020 a pandemic killed 1.2 million Americans and MAGAs tore their hair out over minor inconveniences intended to keep the toll <5 million.
Now Trump is spending $900M/day to fight a war no one wants that'll kill the economy and not only is it silence from the pandemic whiners but they're STOKED.
