This is what Trump's done to the people's house:

A third of it is rubble.

Another third is a cage match.

What a metaphor.

[P a u l ◉ @SkylineReport]

🚨 Ken Paxton was indicted on 3 felony securities-fraud charges.

He wasn't acquitted.

The case dragged on for nearly 9 years before ending in a deal requiring community service, ethics training, and restitution.

Then:

• 8 of his own top deputies reported him to the FBI
• The Texas House impeached him 121-23
• Whistleblowers accused him of using his office to help a political donor tied to his affair
• He sought a taxpayer-funded settlement after those whistleblowers were fired

At some point, it stops being "one allegation."

It becomes a pattern.

A pattern documented by grand juries, whistleblowers, impeachment proceedings, court filings, and his own negotiated settlements.

The DOJ is literally investigating a sexual assault survivor, E Jean Carroll, instead of a single perpetrator in the Epstein files.

🚨 HOLY SHIT.

CNN just cited a New York Times estimate saying Trump has reportedly profited $1.4 BILLION from the presidency.

And the wildest part?

One panelist said Trump made MORE MONEY in the last year than in the rest of his life combined.

Think about that.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

Follow the money on this one. It is rotten to the core.

The Pentagon just lent $620,000,000 to a tiny North Carolina startup called Vulcan Elements. The company is two years old.

It had fewer than 50 employees.

And three months before the deal was announced, Donald Trump Jr.’s venture firm quietly took a stake in it.

Here is the part the administration tried to bury.

Of the dozens of companies the Pentagon was weighing, Vulcan was the only deal initiated by a top White House aide. That aide was Peter Navarro, a close friend of Trump Jr. The order came down to move fast.

One official put it plainly: The call came from the White House. We have to get this done.

Staff worked late nights to push it through in weeks. Deals like this normally take many months of vetting. And when it closed, Vulcan’s valuation jumped from about 200 million dollars to roughly 2 billion.

A windfall for the investors, including the president’s son.

This is public money. Your money.

Routed through the Pentagon to enrich the president’s family and their friends. The Bush administration’s own chief ethics lawyer called it corruption we pay for.

And there is more coming.

A drone parts company Trump Jr. holds a stake in is also under Pentagon review.

This is not a one-off. It is a pattern. The president’s family is treating the federal Treasury like a private bank, and the bill lands on every taxpayer.

Vance Boelter, the man who MURDERED Melissa Hortman, just confessed it all.

Talking to a right wing publication, he explained that he shot Melissa and other Democrats that night because of their support of mRNA vaccines.

Right wing misinformation is killing people.

Our PT Barnum president plans a spectacle as war rages and 35 million people live in poverty. Your tax dollars at work. https://t.co/xq3el319qn

Bottomless corruption.

Endless.

Unfathomable.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

If you turned on the TV in another country and saw the leader's daughter-in-law giving him a softball interview on a major "news" channel, you would rightfully assume that country is a tinpot dictatorship.

[Tennessee Mom @10SEMom1]

@allenanalysis @SailWozniak Sounds like something that would happen in Russia or North Korea.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨HOLY SHIT. Dr. Jonathan Reiner just STUNNED CNN with a bombshell:

“The president has severe daytime somnolence… Chronic insomnia is a severe illness. It can result in an increase in risk of dementia, decrease in cognitive effects in older people.” Wow.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

These days I’m at a loss for words. The new corruption scandal is just bananas. Trump has been using inside information to trade stocks and make millions. And the scale of the trading is just mind blowing.

Here’s what we know.

James Talarico: “We were not founded as a Christian nation. We were founded as a nation where you are free to be a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim or a Sikh or Buddhist or an Atheist. That’s the promise of America that we are this multicultural melting pot”

[ThePatrioticBlonde™🇺🇸 @ImBreckWorsham]

According to a report by White House correspondent, [Michael Kaplan, while at Walter Reed hospital, Trump had the opportunity to visit with 14 U.S. soldiers wounded in his war with Iran.

He declined.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

DOGE rifled through your Social Security data, your tax records, and your most sensitive personal information. All in the name of transparency, of course.

And now, in that same spirit of transparency, the Trump Administration is blocking the government's own watchdog from finding out what they did with it.

The only reason they’re blocking the investigation is because they're afraid of what it would find.

🚨BREAKING: A manager at a local diner asked ICE agents for a warrant before they searched a private areas of the business… and their response… slamming him to the ground, and putting a knee in his back, leaving him injured.

Because apparently exercising your constitutional rights is now being treated like obstruction.

According to witnesses, ICE agents were chasing someone who ran into the restaurant after a traffic stop. The manager reportedly told them they could not just storm through the kitchen without judicial authorization.

Because the Fourth Amendment is still a thing… even though ICE agents keep pretending it isn’t.

Law enforcement cannot just search private areas of a business because they feel like it. A kitchen, in a restaurant, is not a public space.

When agents do not have consent, exigent circumstances, or a valid warrant signed by a judge… then managers have every right to question that search.

That is literally how constitutional protections work.

And the fact that the manager was injured, after asserting those rights, should outrage everyone.

Rights either apply to everyone… or they are not rights at all.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

Projection off the charts

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING: An ICE agent was caught on video telling a U.S. citizen that they are a “dead man”… wile they were protesting, on PUBLIC PROPERTY, outside the Delaney facility, in New Jersey.

ICE agents are now openly giving out death threats to civilians for exercising their constitutional rights.

And this is after we have seen countless videos of ICE agents shoving protesters, assaulting them, and even pushing demonstrators toward MOVING VEHICLES.

This is what happens when an agency operates like it’s above the Constitution.

South Carolina Republicans: “Quick, let’s eliminate the one Black district before anyone catches on.”

Black South Carolina voters: “Hold my beer.”
