NEW: The mask has slipped.

Donald Trump is no longer just talking about subverting elections — he’s laying the groundwork to do it. As the 2026 midterms approach, the threat to our right to vote has never been more explicit.

DHS repeatedly said that an aggressive apartment raid in Chicago last fall was prompted by intel on a gang takeover.

New documents show the real story behind the raid was to target alleged squatters — with the landlord's blessing.

A federal court has blocked Trump’s shutdown of America's biggest critical infrastructure project - which makes sense, since he's violating legal commitments the federal government made in good faith on my watch.

Trump supporters don’t much care that he names places like the Kennedy Center or Peace Institute after himself because they are an uncultured, slovenly brood but what if he starts naming sh*t they do care about: Trump Yankee Stadium, Trump Staten Island, Trump Florida Panhandle.

Reporter: The WH says a staffer sent that video. Are you going to fire the staffer?

Trump: No. I looked at it. I didn’t see the whole thing. I gave it to the people, they posted it.

Reporter: Are you going to apologize?

Trump: No, I didn’t make a mistake. It was a take off The Lion King.

When you hear of a billionaire losing money on a pricey hobby or side business — whether it's a race horse or a newspaper — remember that those losses can actually create huge write-offs that let the ultrarich get away with paying little or no income tax.

Today, construction on the nation’s largest infrastructure project came to a halt - with hundreds laid off - because Donald Trump is out of control.

The good news: political pressure still works, and we can use our voices to make sure he doesn’t have the last word.
