One week after Trump pardoned Binance’s owner (for a stunning array of crimes related to terrorist and sex predator financing), Binance starts promoting Trump crypto.

The White House is a full time, 24/7 corruption machine.

More shit Mike Johnson doesn’t know.
Q: What's your reaction to yesterday's purge of senior ICE officials? When is it time for Congress to do some oversight?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know any of the details of that yet. I just heard about that, literally I was walking in.

JUST IN: The U.S. Senate has voted 52–48 to overturn Trump’s 50% tariffs on Brazil. Five Republicans joined Democrats: Susan Collins (ME), Mitch McConnell (KY), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Rand Paul (KY), and Thom Tillis (NC).

The measure is DOA in the House.

This comes from Brian Allen, who states this is a leaked CPAC press memo reveals the “Third Term Project” is hosting a February 20 event titled “The Case for Presidential Tenure Reform.”

We’re sharing this because everyone claimed Project 2025 wasn’t real, yet here we are. Trump has also been talking more openly about a third term, and Steve Bannon said there’s a group actively working on it turns out, there might be one.

This story is insane. A man who posted a meme of Trump saying “we have to get over it” in a discussion about the CK shooting has been in jail for 2 months with a $2M bond. Meanwhile, the man who actually threatened to kill Hakeem Jeffries is out on bail.

Firing an entire federal arts commission to clear the path for your own triumphal arch? It’s a textbook indicator of authoritarian executive overreach — the exact trend we warned about in our assessment.

1/ The 9th Circuit will rehear the 2-1 panel decision in favor of the administration, permitting Trump to deploy NG troops in Portland while the litigation moves forward, en banc, which may signal a change.

This is disgusting. Blatant corruption at the highest level in plain sight and Oversight Chair Comer Pyle morphs into a combination of Mr. Magoo and Sgt. Schultz.
It is! That stupid ass tried so hard to find a Biden corruption to no avail.

When the system is abusing the people, the people push back.

I speak with SEIU Local 1191 member/critical care nurse, Martha Wydra, to get a first-hand look at how Trump’s policies are impacting healthcare workers and to share Martha’s message that we cannot live in fear.

i cannot believe that “mamdani calls a close adult relative an ‘aunt’ even if they are not literally their parent’s sister” is what counts as a “scandal” these days
A lot of close friends do that with each others children. But these people don't know what a true, walk through fire for you friend is.
