BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Ukraine's President Volodomyr Zelenskyy just EXPOSED that someone in the Trump Administration or allied with Elon Musk is once again preventing Ukraine from using StarShield's technology. This in-kind contribution to Putin's war must be stopped.
I’m actually referring to your 30,000 stock trades (more than all Members of Congress combined), your Qatari-gifted luxury jet, your crypto scams, your Truth Social pay to play scheme, your billionaire-funded ballroom, your insurrectionist slush fund, and your pardons for big donors—just to name a few.
Senate Democrats will ban stock trading for all Members of Congress and White House officials, and hold you and your administration accountable for all the ways your rampant corruption has made life more expensive for families.
Since taking office last year, Marco Rubio has flown to at least 10 University of Florida football games.
The flights have cost the government more than $1.2 million, The Post found.
Rubio's personal travel appears to significantly outpace that of his predecessors. https://t.co/8rt325eDR5
“The idea that we're waiting for [Supreme Court judges] to die is fundamentally undemocratic.”

Witkoff and Kushner. Two unelected pieces of shit with no democratic mandate, sitting down with a war criminal as though they have the authority to negotiate. This should fucking enrage everyone.
Congress must conduct a thorough review of how NVIDIA’s CEO may have compromised US national security and of how the Trump administration’s relationships and personal financial interests may have influenced their response.
Jensen Huang’s resignation does not change the fact that Americans are owed answers. Nor that Trump allowed, and the company pushed for, highly advanced AI chips to be sold to China.
For the sake of our national security and retaining our technological edge in AI, it’s time for Congress to tighten export controls to halt sales of these sensitive chips to China.
By agreeing to run the clock on Republican judicial nominees, Schumer has sacrificed Democrats' ablity to:
-- force continuous presence and longer workweeks, which raises the political cost for the majority and can slow the overall pace of processing the remaining ~20–25 nominees
-- consume floor time that could otherwise be used (or blocked) for other Republican priorities before the year ends
-- maintain maximum pressure that historically leads to end-of-Congress deals in which some nominees are confirmed quickly and others are left behind
It's a nice thing to do, something Republicans would never do for us and it helps them get all their Trump judges confirmed.
If you confront him he'll plainly ask you "What's wrong with being nice?" This is the conundrum we face.
We all finally lived long enough to witness America being sold out to China and Russia, simply for one corrupt man's monetary gain.
We should react accordingly.
This is a flagrant lie from Hakeem Jeffries. He says that AIPAC announced it would stop political fundraising 3 weeks ago. That’s simply not true. They said they would stop writing $5k checks directly from AIPAC but would continue with their super PAC and direct fundraising.
This new Reuters report is stunning.
A week before the U.S. captured Venezuela's leader, JD Vance reportedly met at a private Montana ski club with John Addison, an oil trader who had given $300,000 to help elect Vance to the Senate in 2022. Vance allegedly asked how fast Venezuela's oil could be sold if America took control of it.
Both men deny the meeting.
Flight records show their planes parked together that day.
Two days after the Venezuela operation, Energy Secretary Chris Wright called Addison and offered his company, Vitol, the job of selling Venezuela's oil. There was no public bidding. Vitol and one rival have since made hundreds of millions of dollars.
Addison and his wife also gave $7 million to help elect Trump, and he now chairs a board advising Secretary Wright.
Congress has a duty to act.
We should bring Secretary Wright, Vitol, and Addison in to testify under oath. We should demand the phone records, emails, and flight logs. We should find out whether anyone got a heads-up about a military operation. And we should require open, competitive bidding before any company profits from our foreign policy.
If nothing was wrong, let’s see the records.
