Trump's dementia has grown so extreme that a select group of advisors are now running the country without his input. To find who those advisors are and what their plans are, buy my new book, which will appear in March 2029.

Mark Kelly on Trump’s military probe: “I haven’t heard anything — Social media, that’s how we were notified. That’s how unserious they are — I spent 25 years in the United States Navy. I retired from the Navy 14 years ago. I’m not in any command now. I don’t know what they’re talking about”

AOC: I want to remind you where the real crime is. It's in the oligarchs taking $170 billion of our money from health care and food assistance and public programs and taking that and funneling it into a secret police program.

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just passed a bill that would subject immigrant children to invasive bodily searches and keep them in detention instead of releasing them to their families.

Speaker Johnson, will you condemn these comments or just say you have not seen or heard them?
