🚨Illinois State Representative and Congressional Candidate, Hoan Huynh, was surrounded by ICE agents while one of them pulled a gun on him in NW Chicago this morning.
The best version ever. Apparently Prince was unable to make it to the rehearsals, but then the other musicians realized it was Prince, and figured it’d be fine because, well, he’s Prince!

"Tearing down the White House and replacing it with a facsimile of Mar-a-Lago isn’t any less appalling because Trump cajoled companies into paying for it. Indeed, it might be worse. Funding a pet project via the coercion of private donors creates a closed loop and complete lack of accountability."

Here's how I know the "blowing up #cartel drug boats" off #Venezuela is bullshit:

Because if they knew those boats had a shitload of drugs, they would:

- stop & board them
- take publicity photos with the drugs
- bring the drugs back to the US
- do some of the drugs & sell the rest

“ A vehicle of divine provenance” is how Steve Bannon describes Trump. After such an outrageous description of the most flawed criminal liar to ever occupy the White House, everything else Bannon says must be taken as nonsense. This includes Bannon’s promise of an illegal 3rd Trump term. #ProudBlue

This is what we have turned into👇👇

Fox News congratulated George Santos on getting out of prison after his commutation. He was convicted of ruining the lives of disabled veterans by stealing their charity money. That's what they're celebrating. 🤦‍♂️Every veteran should hear this as too..the world

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic Party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic Party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. Some thoughts...

Call me a conspiracy theorist but I'm starting to think that the government shutdown is part of their hostile government takeover.

Go read Project 2025, again.

Today’s inflation data shows that prices are rising at their fastest pace since January.

Food inflation in particular is hitting Americans hard.

Could this be one reason why?

Social Security benefits are going up by 2.8 percent next year.

But Medicare premiums are going up by 11.6 percent. And the cost of food is skyrocketing, too.

Trumpflation is stealing your hard earned benefits.
