Trump and his motorcade leaving his Palm Beach golf club. These leisurely golf outings cost taxpayers millions.

Why don’t Republican cut these trips instead of gutting healthcare?

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California.

Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

Saw my first one on ESPN. Filled with divisive lies and profoundly stupid. About what one would

Ran into my old friend today, the great Ed McGinty. He’s back on the streets in The Villages, peacefully protesting every day. I’m trying to get him to get active on here. Give him a follow. He’ll be posting soon enough with his anti-Trump signs in the middle of MAGAland.

Gov. Pritzker: "The president lies consistently, and he's got a lot of people around him who are sycophants, including JD Vance, who lie on his behalf...It's propaganda."

Another thing about the Tea Party is it was mostly organized by Fox News. And they were lying about their stated objections! They never cared about deficits they just hated having a black President.

No Kings is real grassroots and are earnest about the objection to Trump’s authoritarian attacks.

Reminder: We spent YEARS reading thousands and thousands of articles on the Tea Party and how it was a true expression of the American people's will, and it never mounted anything nearly as big as Saturday's No Kings rallies. [1/3]

What exactly is the point of having a Congress if it’s going to be run by spineless sycophants whose only function is to let America’s most special little boy do whatever he wants.

Q: You talked about the Hudson River Tunnel in NYC. Is the funding terminated?

TRUMP: Right now there is no funding. Because it's up to me

Trump on No Kings: "It's a joke. I looked at the people. They are not representative of this country. And I looked at all the brand new signs I guess paid for by Soros and other radical left lunatics. We're checking it out. The demonstrations were very small. And the people were whacked out."

Good thing the military isn't woke anymore and is willing to take the fight to our enemies, like Colombian fisherman and Interstate 5.

Californians, this is it. In honor of the No Kings protests and to protect democracy, get that Prop 50 ballot in and vote YES.

Remind your friends, your family, and everyone you know—democracy only works if we do.

It’s sad that Mrs. Betty has to give Meghan McCain a grammar-school lesson in politics.

In 1933, Adolf Hitler was legitimately made Chancellor of Germany. That doesn't mean that everything he did while in that office, like giving himself absolute power like a king, was legitimate, Meghan.

She alleged in the past that it was former Israeli PM Ehud Barak but we can’t know that for sure because Trump, Bondi, Patel and Johnson are hiding this person’s identity from the public by blocking release of the Epstein files.

Whoever it is.

For some reason.
