X’s deepfake porn feature clearly violates app store guidelines. Why won’t Apple and Google pull it?

If only the government had a bureau to protect consumers from financial predation. Maybe call it the . . . "Consumer Financial Protection Bureau."
“.. It is unclear what authority the president could use to impose such a cap without authorization by Congress.” 🤡

Let's get this straight: the Trump Admin is talking about giving up to $100,000 a PERSON to Greenlanders, but he's refusing to help millions of Americans afford their health insurance??
 
This is a waste of taxpayer dollars & a slap in the face to working Americans.
Exclusive: Trump administration mulls payments to sway Greenlanders to join US
The idea of directly paying residents of Greenland, an overseas territory of Denmark, offers one explanation of how the U.S. might attempt to "buy" the island of 57,000 people.

Jeff Van Drew says he’s concerned about rising healthcare premiums. Yesterday, the House voted to extend ACA subsidies and he voted no.
His words are empty. How he votes speaks volumes. He owns this healthcare crisis.
9 Republicans vote with Democrats to set up House vote on 3-year extension of ACA subsidies
A path through the Senate to Trump's desk remains unlikely, though

My name is Bayly Winder, and I am the Democrat who will defeat Jeff Van Drew and flip New Jersey's 2nd blue.

I know what it takes to serve in government and fight for our people. Van Drew caves to this White House. I won't.

Repost this and give me a follow. Let's win this.

Dr. Andrews' is running again Lindsey Graham this year; please support her campaign
Nicolás Maduro is a brutal dictator. No one should defend him.

But what Trump & his cronies like Lindsey Graham are pushing has nothing to do with democracy or helping the Venezuelan people. They’re chomping at the bit to seize Venezuelan oil & dish out the profits to their billionaire buddies. ➡️

It’s been 20 days since Arizona’s 7th District elected Adelita Grijalva, and Speaker Johnson still hasn’t sworn her in.

Meanwhile, federal workers are TWO days from missing a paycheck, and Johnson has House Republicans at home on an extended vacation.

Weakest Speaker ever.

The annoying spam texts destroying the Democratic brand:

$678M raised through those spam tactics

$282M to one consulting firm: Mothership Strategies.

$11M to actual campaigns (1.6%)

The party isn’t just treating donors like marks—it’s being fleeced itself yet continues to back Mothership.
