I still can’t believe Scott Bessent, whose net worth is $521 million, went on TV and claimed that he “has felt the pain” of the trade war because he is a “soybean farmer.”

And he claims to be a “farmer” not because he grows things, but because he is a landlord of some farmers.

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

I'm 100% IN AGREEMENT!!!
I was wondering if anyone has a relative or any connection to those Retired Generals who had the outrageous experience listening to the FELON PEDOPHILE attacking our military and rambling on like he was insane!
I'd love to talk with a couple of them to see what they 🤔 !!!

DEMS NEED AN ATTACK STRATEGY! We need to investigate and expose ALL GOP that enable Trump and his fascists! We should invest everything in getting kompromat on these Russian fascists in our Congress!

The railway magnate Trump super-fan who just “gifted” our military $130M once sued a bunch of explorers because he was convinced he saw Amelia Earhart’s severed head in a plastic bag on the ocean floor and they didn’t believe him.

So, this is fine. Everything is fine. Totally fi…

There’s only been one lawsuit filed against the devastating destruction of the White House.

One.

And it’s by Virginia couple, Charles and Judith Voorhees.

Not Congress, not historical (or any) institutions, but a citizen couple.

We continue to be the resistance.

A week of racism scandals, phantom audits, public meltdowns in Kent, and a Russia problem that just won’t die - it’s been a hell of a time for Reform UK.

Meanwhile, the government quietly admits Brexit’s to blame for the mess.

Nigel’s very bad week indeed.

Nigel and the Terrible, Horrible, No-Good, Very Bad Week

From racist MPs to phantom audits, Reform UK’s revolution is starting to look less “take back control” and more “lost the password again.”

He is heir to the Mellon fortune.

Let's sit back and watch those red states crumble while us blue states thrive with all that added income staying in state.

I don't understand how anyone can make the case that we still have constitutional government at this point. The president is collecting revenue *AND* spending money without Congressional authorization, refusing to spend money that Congress appropriated, disobeying whatever laws he feels like.
