A Daily Reminder: If Bernie's Social Security bill was enacted in 2021, Elon Musk would've paid $2.9 billion more in taxes, Social Security would be solvent for 75 years, benefits would be expanded by $2,400 and 91% of Americans would pay $0 more in taxes.

Scrap the damn cap.

🚨WHOA! Bernie Sanders publicly diagnosed Trump's ridiculous behavior in his Meet the Press interview.

"We say, 'Oh well, that's just Trump,' but that's a mentally unstable person... who has strong paranoid tendencies..."

Trump is mentally unfit.

25th Amendment now.

@RossKneeDeep No, I don't. The one thing I think is most telling is the blood remained bright red as fake blood does. Real blood oxidizes quickly and darkens. That didn't happen here.

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

Rollins literally asked "where are all the sterile flies?" on national television.

DOGE cut the USDA screwworm monitoring program. DOGE cut USAID's border parasite prevention program. Both happened after she was sworn in.

The sterile flies were in the budget she let get gutted. That's where they went

🚨 Trump is moving to strip his adversaries of their American citizenship.

Experts say this is a significant step towards fascism.

BREAKING: This May Be One Of The Strangest Epstein Revelations Yet.

An Epstein associate reportedly testified that her legal fees were being paid through a fund established by Jeffrey Epstein's estate.

Think about that for a second.

Epstein died years ago.

The investigations continued.

The lawsuits continued.

The witnesses remained.

And according to the testimony, the money kept flowing.

The question is how many other people are benefiting from similar arrangements.

🇺🇸Trump has stated 55 times that he defeated Iran.

🇺🇸Trump has stated 35 times that Iran is destroyed.

🇺🇸Trump has stated 38 times that a deal is imminent.

🇺🇸Trump has stated 25 times that the Strait of Hormuz is open.

Elect a clown, expect a circus.

BREAKING: Fox News Just Spent 3 Straight Minutes Airing A Detailed Case For Corruption Inside The Trump Administration.

Think about that.

This wasn’t MSNBC.

This wasn’t CNN.

This was Fox News.

Rep. Jamie Raskin walked viewers through what he says is a pattern of corruption, conflicts of interest, and abuse of power inside the administration.

And Fox aired the entire thing.

When even Fox can no longer avoid the conversation, it suggests the story has become too large to simply ignore.

Rep. Rob Wittman (R-VA) faked a phone call for roughly 90 seconds after being asked about Speaker Mike Johnson’s comments regarding potential Social Security cuts.

The phone's screen remained visible, with his cheek inadvertently tapping different parts of the display.

Dr. Oz is attempting to lay the foundation for Republicans to gut Medicaid and Medicare again by calling them programs “of great danger” to the American people.

These people have no health care plan other than taking away yours.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

What if I told you that conspiring to steal a presidential election is now a pardonable offense — as long as you were doing it for Donald Trump?

Rudy Giuliani was ordered by a jury to pay nearly $150 million to Georgia election workers he lied about on national television. Mark Meadows was indicted in Arizona as part of an 18-person plot to overturn that state's results. Trump pardoned both of them, then called their prosecutions “a grave national injustice.”

The message is clear: to Trump, personal loyalty is worth more than the Constitution.

Welcome to Episode 7 of the Pardon Papers.

Your daily reminder this should be the biggest scandal in American politics right now but nobody seems to care. Ken Paxton freed a man who raped a boy for 3 years.

He also doesnt have to register as a sex offender.

This Administration has removed the achievements of the Air Force’s first female Thunderbird pilot Retired Colonel Nicole Malachowski. The removal of these articles have sparked criticism because her place in Air Force history is not a Political slogan it’s well documented.

As a former Floridian, hurt to see John Oliver's look at Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' bogus makeover of New College of Florida. As Oliver tartly observes, DeSantis turned a scrappy liberal arts college into a sinkhole of money, bogus education ideas and payments for his allies. WATCH: https://t.co/orjiJ371mW
