Rep. Nancy Pelosi has had enough of the right wing-lies. As Dems continue to show up to try and make a deal to reopen the government, Pelosi was confronted by a reporter asking about January 6th. Pelosi snapped back telling her to "shut up".

Qatar gave Trump a $400M jet. Trump gave them a military facility on US soil.

The UAE bought $2B of Trump's stablecoin. Trump gave them access to rare AI chips.

Saudi Arabia invested $2B in Kushner's firm. Trump sold them $142B in arms.

If this isn't corruption, what is?

BERNIE: “I worry we are increasingly becoming an oligarchic form of society, where a very small # of people control our economy + have huge influence over both political parties. if there was ever a time to stand up for working families and prevent authoritarianism, this is it.”

Mike Johnson isn't Christian.
He proves that every day.
But he IS a numerologist.
He fears 218.

I’m old enough to remember when we had a system of checks & balances that involved Congress, when Congress controlled the purse and legislated, and the president respected the Constitution & rule of law. I’m old enough to remember when a U.S. president wouldn’t want to be King George or a dictator.

Trump is shredding the law in real time:
1️⃣ Illegally sent troops into LA
2️⃣ Fired protected officials
3️⃣ Froze Congress’s money
4️⃣ Seized DC’s police
5️⃣ Abused wartime deportation powers
6️⃣ Hijacked independent agencies
7️⃣ Tried to control the nation’s purse

He is just getting started.

Imagine my surprise when Pat from SNL posted hundreds of vile, anti-Semitic, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, Hitler-loving messages.

Correction: I’m told that it was actually William Hendrix, who worked for Kansas Republican AG Kris Kobach.

Was it America First or Argentina First? Somehow there’s $40 billion for Argentina.

Another $20 billion. That is the face you make when you heist the US taxpayers for $40 billion two weeks before your midterm elections from the most corrupt America Last regime in history.

Hey American farmers, Trump just doubled Argentina's bailout from $20 billion to $40 billion.

That's the same Argentina that, because of Trump's tariffs, has now supplanted ALL of America's soybean sales to China.

Trump sold you out – then gave the guy who benefited an extra $40 billion gift.
