It is a moral failure of our country that we changed the rules to create a trillionaire while doing nothing about the 771,000 homeless and over 18 million who do not have enough to eat.

🚨CAUGHT ON TAPE: Mike Johnson PANICS after a recorded conversation is released exposing the House Republican plan to CUT Medicaid, Medicare, AND social security for millions of Americans. They denied it. The recording just blew up the entire lie. EVERY American should see this.

Republicans win the White House, enact trickle-down tax cuts, and collapse the economy. Feel like we've been here before? Here's why it keeps happening.

We are ten years into allegations of widespread election fraud - only for elections Trump or republicans lose, mind you - for which Trump and allies have either not produced evidence, or claimed evidence which was subsequently debunked. And blatant contradictions - such as celebrating wins under the same laws and practices while confidently declaring theft for any losses - are now the norm.
Speaker Johnson, like Trump, sowing doubts on CA results. I asked him about any evidence to back up their claims ā€œSome of these efforts are so diabolical and so far upstream it is impossible to prove,ā€ he said. ā€œBut think everybody knows instinctively something is wrong here.ā€

They're letting Social Security fail because they refuse to scrap the cap and make the super-wealthy pay their fair share. Letting Social Security become insolvent is a choice.
Social Security is on track to become insolvent by the end of 2032, putting benefits at risk of a 22% cut. cbsn.ws/4umfAHh

Lieu: The president is not well. He has tremendous difficulty staying awake on the job. He has repeatedly fallen asleep at Cabinet meetings, at White House events, at a Memorial Day ceremony, and most recently at a very loud NBA game last night. The White House needs to explain why Donald Trump keeps going to the hospital and taking cognitive tests.

Be American! Ask questions! It creates thinking ... or exposes failure in responsibility. Legislators, despite their positions, need critical dialogue to avoid stagnant, uninformed ideas and propaganda.
When a project looks to reshape one of the most water-stressed counties & carries consequences for future generations across this state, the public deserves more than a county attorney's unilateral ruling that it isn't their decision to make. Residents aren't trying to obstruct development. They're asking to be heard on the biggest land-use decision in county history. sltrib.com/news/2026/06/03/b…

To and for all Americans, We the People are the voice of our government ... even though the chief executive officer doesn't recognize or honor us. Our criticism remains crucial.
Ossoff: Last September, the President of Kazakhstan calls Donald Trump and says he wants to grant tungsten mining rights to an American company. And the very next month, Eric and Don Jr. get a stake in the American company pursuing the mining deal. Six days later, six days after Prince Eric and Prince Don get their stake, Kazakhstan announces this company will get, ā€œThe largest known undeveloped tungsten resource in the world.ā€ A few more weeks go by, and then the U.S. government, run by their father, sets aside 1.6 billion of your tax dollars to fund and finance their mining project. In Kazakhstan. All this while you pay more for gas, for groceries, for health care, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

In the shadow of the Paramount-Skydance mega-merger, we see the real danger: when a few powerful interests control our media, truth itself becomes expendable. Scott Pelley's firing from CBS News and 60 Minutes is a blow to American journalism. We cannot allow mergers that silence courageous voices and threaten the free press our democracy depends on. Thanks for sharing @rbreich

These are all programs that Trump has cut funding for and I’m curious where all this money went! Why aren’t we asking questions. Why isn’t Congress asking questions! 🤬

Cutting food assistance for mothers and kids while claiming to support families is indefensible.
As grocery prices continue to rise nationally, the House passed an appropriations bill that would cut $141 million in funding for a program that helps pregnant women and children purchase healthy foods. wapo.st/4ocfEIf

.@SarahAMatthews1 on the first US case of flesh-eating screwworm in 60 years after DOGE cuts to the program that monitored it: ā€œTurns out that letting a bunch of 20-year-old incels with no subject matter expertise take a chainsaw to federal programs ended up having consequences.ā€

🚨 HOLY SHIT. A U.S. citizen just testified before the Senate that ICE agents ignored his passport, detained him, placed him on suicide watch, and released him WITHOUT charges or explanation. Read that again. An AMERICAN CITIZEN says he showed agents his passport multiple times… and still ended up locked in a cell under 24/7 lights, stripped naked, wearing a hospital gown while guards watched him constantly. His family reportedly had no idea where he was. Then after all of that? No charges. No explanation. Just released.

This is cruelty. This greed by and for the powerful. This is un-American .
An estimated 2.5 million children have lost food assistance since Trump's Big Beautiful Bill passed last July.

I don’t think we have a functioning CDC anymore—RFK Jr’s CDC is now asking volunteers to goto airports to screen passengers for Ebola… to stand in line at airports to look for sick people… unpaid.

The Republican Party quietly deleted their own ad attacking Ken Paxton's record on crime... because Paxton is now the Republican Party's nominee to represent Texas in the U.S. Senate. Figured if the ad is important enough to delete, it's important enough to see...
