MAGA Mike Johnson has kept the House out of session for weeks now (but collecting their pay) to help Trump cover up the Epstein files.
Tell your pro-Trump family and friends, if you have any. They won't hear it from Fox, so tell them.

If Republicans are going to label you a terrorist for peacefully protesting Trump's failing presidency, abuses of power, and treatment of blue America as an enemy nation, let's turn out in even bigger numbers.

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump

As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

The questions remain. Why did White House border czar Tom Homan accept a bag with $50,000 cash? Who was it from? What was promised in exchange? Why did the DOJ close the investigation? How does bribery and corruption make America great? www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Pressed on Tom Homan controversy, JD Vance and Pam Bondi struggle to answer

The attorney general and the vice president confronted straightforward questions about the scandal surrounding the border czar. Both Republicans struggled.

Faintly amusing that the IFS' argument to Reeves on tax reform is basically: You're fucked either way, so you might as well do something decent for the country while you're taking all this pain www.reuters.com/world/uk/uks...

UK's Reeves should use budget to reform tax system, IFS says

British finance minister Rachel Reeves should use her budget in November to carry out a long overdue reform of the taxation system which could help her to raise more revenue while limiting the hit to the economy, a think tank said on Monday.

Federal Secret Police and plainclothes ICE agents kidnap multiple people from a neighborhood in Chicago. They then deploy teargas and brutally beat neighbors who come out to express their concern.
