President Trump's financial disclosures yesterday showed that one big reason for his soaring income was a big payout from a UAE company. I hope that's not the reason he has been quiet about the UAE backing the RSF militia in Sudan as it engages in mass murder and mass rape. The RSF is now poised to overrun the city of El Obeid and massacre many thousands more people. Trump could avert these mass atrocities by insisting that the UAE tell its pet militia to back off. Will he?

I think everyone is missing the main difference between these two fascist eagles:

One is eighty five years ago, and one is *right now*.

The number of financial side deals the Trump family is running is so shocking it can sometimes be hard to track.

According to @Reuters, their crypto ventures alone have delivered $2.3 billion to Trump & co. while creating a similar-sized loss for investors.

Oh. Someone should ask @Seckennedy about the increasing body of evidence disproving his theory that babies born to women who take Tylenol while pregnant may be at increased risk of autism. https://t.co/lbQFQMZ5ep

This is Jonathan Ross. He still needs to face justice for his murder of Renee Good.

I’m not going to hail Barrett and Roberts for allowing us to count our votes. It’s a huge win for democracy, but it shouldn’t have even been a question. That we were one vote away from disenfranchising votes is all the more reason to expand the court in 2029.

The conservative Court just struck down limits on coordinated spending between candidates and political parties — a massive win for Republicans that will fundamentally change how tens of millions of dollars are spent in congressional elections.

[Eric Lee @EricLeeAtty]

SCOTUS came within 2 votes of allowing the president to effectively overturn the 14th Amendment. Anything less than 9-0 on birthright citizenship would have been a scandal in earlier period. A significant decision today, but far, far too close a vote.

Con men have somehow convinced half the country that cruelty is “strength” and ignorance is “patriotism.”
Actor Jon Bernthal (The Punisher) cuts right through that costume and reminds us what this guy would look like without the cameras and the cult.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

It’s important to understand that the Court is now just an arm of the oligarchy.

This decision strips the people of the right to limit the role of money in politics. It gives billionaires special rights to buy our elections. A precondition of oligarchy.

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Yes. He has already paid this $5M sum into a deposit account held by the United States District Court. She will receive her money shortly, after the SCOTUS clerk's office issues that Court's final judgment.

[Patrick Skinner @SkinnerPm]

Dear Washington Post. Once a guilty verdict has been rendered, it’s no longer an allegation. It’s a fact. The jury did not find that the disgraceful president allegedly sexually assaulted & then defamed Jean Carroll. The jury found that he did sexually assault & defame her. Duh

😂 UNBELIEVABLE: Dr. Oz on stage with Dean Cain talks about how great the crowd is at the Great American State Fair... so @hicharliecotton pans his camera to reveal quite the opposite.

[Laurence (Larry) Boorstein @LarryBoorstein]

If the Administration refuses to release body cam footage of the shooting of Alex Pretti, it is reasonable to assume that it shows he was shot by two United States Border Patrol Agents in cold blood while he was being beaten and kicked in the head by 8 agents and that he never drew his weapon, which he was legally authorized to have, but rather it was pulled from his waistband by an agent and Pretti was shot when he was unarmed.

[David French @DavidAFrench]

Trump's pardons will be the capstone on his corruption. He's going to prove the anti-federalists right. An unchecked pardon power is a grave mistake that an unscrupulous president can use to wreck the rule of law.

[Jeremy Konyndyk @JeremyKonyndyk]

What’s insane is the idea that the world’s richest country can’t spend a rounding-error of our wealth to save millions of lives overseas.

In polling, huge majorities of Americans support this. Empathy is an American value; just not to sociopathic weirdos like Rufo & Elon.
