So right.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I spent the last few months talking to people across the political spectrum, and to people who want nothing to do with politics at all. Here is what I learned.

We are not a divided country. We are a country being divided, on purpose, by an American oligarchy that profits from the fight. They’ve captured our government, denied our healthcare, looted our treasury, and saddled us with crippling debt.

I believe in a New New Deal. Healthcare as a human right. The right of every family to a decent home, and an end to endless wars.

And a dividend paid to every American from the AI economy, because these machines were built on the whole of human inheritance. That inheritance belongs to all of us, and not just to the handful of men playing God with our very existence.

And none of it happens if we just move on. Donald Trump, his family, and his administration are robbing us blind, not just of our money, but of our faith in one another, and they have to answer for it. Truth and reconciliation, not revenge. Then we break the system that let them do it.

The question is not whether we will lose our democracy. The question is whether we will fight to take back what has already been stolen.

I learned in recovery that you can’t heal what you won’t name. Neither can a country.

We’re about to spend $300,000,000,000 rebuilding Iran after spending $80,000,000,000 destroying it, while telling Americans on Medicaid to take a hike.

America First.

[ThePatrioticBlonde™🇺🇸 @ImBreckWorsham]

Reading what a traitor I am in my comments.

So, JUST TO BE FAIR..... let me get this straight.....

We taxpayers just blew $75 billion to attack Iran, UNPROVOKED, then dropped another $300 billion to REBUILD it, even though it didn't NEED rebuilding before we ATTACKED it, (unprovoked) all so we could "reopen" a Strait of Hormuz that was already OPEN before we ATTACKED Iran (unprovoked), wind up with $4 gas for NO REASON and I'M the bitch for pointing it OUT?

That's fair.

Sounds legit. 👌

Unbelievable how cruel people can be. I’m glad he lived and is still remembered for his sacrifice.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

This is a portrait I painted of one of many heroes of mine from the Civil Rights movement. The Rev. James Zwerg, circa 1961. He was one of the Freedom Riders, along with John Lewis, William Barbee, Catherine Burks, and many others, who pulled into Montgomery, AL on a bus May 20, 1961.

He volunteered to step off first.

The mob was waiting with baseball bats, chains, and clubs. They beat him until three of his vertebrae cracked, his nose broke, and every tooth in his head was fractured. They beat him unconscious on the pavement. A Black stranger in coveralls walked up and said, “Stop beating that kid. If you want to beat someone, beat me.” And they did. He saved Zwerg’s life.

White ambulances refused to take him. He lay in the street for over an hour. That is the moment I painted. Bloodied suit. Head bowed.

At Martin Luther King Jr.’s urging, Zwerg later went to seminary and was ordained in the United Church of Christ.

Rev. Zwerg is now 86 and lives in Tucson, Arizona. His courage and conviction, alongside that of countless others, helped save this nation. These are the people I celebrate as we near our 250th anniversary as a nation.

I’m just going to post this every few days rather than arguing with faceless, nameless trolls in the comments.

[Christopher Webb @cwebbonline]

Trump may as well have called the rest of us peasants.

According to him, it wasn’t workers who built America. It was rich guys like him and his cabinet:

“These people built the country, not the complainers. The complainers didn’t build the country…. Whether it’s fishermen or farmers or anything else. Me. Guys like me, they built the country. And you know, I watch all these ingrates, they’re always complaining, complaining. They didn’t build anything, they couldn’t build anything.”

[Terry Moran 🇺🇸 @TerryMoran]

It’s not about arguments. It’s about facts.

I know one great fact about American elections, and I know it because the Republican Party has proved it to me:

There is no election fraud of any consequence anywhere in the United States.

The Republican Party and its allies, FOR DECADES, have been searching high and low, in every corner of our country, for evidence of election fraud.

This effort has been made with vast sums of money and other resources, and with some of the greatest powers in our nation at the party’s disposal:

A presidential commission under President Donald Trump.

The Department of Justice under President Donald Trump, armed with the resources of the FBI, and the powers of subpoena.

Committees of Congress under Republican control, also armed with the powers of subpoena and the investigative resources of the first branch of government.

State legislatures under Republican control, also with subpoena powers, have launched similar efforts to find evidence of election fraud.

Republican-controlled states have set up special commissions and task forces, some with subpoena powers, all well-funded and with access to the state’s electoral systems.

Conservative academics and think tanks have launched projects seeking out evidence of election fraud.

Fox News and the rest of MAGA media have dedicated significant resources to finding evidence of election fraud.

What is the result of this enormous Republican effort to find election fraud?

Ask The Heritage Foundation.

For nearly a decade, Heritage has maintained an “Election Fraud Database.”

The database contains “proven instances of election fraud.”

It covers elections going back nearly fifty years.

That’s billions and billions of American votes.

Right now, the total number of proven instances of election fraud that Heritage can document is:

1620.

That’s an infinitesimal number, vanishingly small, and it is solid proof of two things:

1. Some individuals commit election fraud.

2. There is no evidence at all of systemic or even widespread election fraud anywhere in the USA.

The election-fraud panic is the Big Lie of our time.

It is peddled by people who know better. Their own investigations over decades demonstrate that.

Stop trying to subvert our democracy.

I haven’t posted an update in a long time because I left this forum for quite awhile. For my MBC friends, I found out last week that I have three new areas of metastasis in my pelvis. SBRT and second line treatment to follow. To my disability friends, my son has declined.

[Carolyn @KresseGirl]

He was in the hospital for three months in 2024 and lost the use of his stomach. It now drains through a G-tube continuously and he has fed through a J-tube. This is totally different for him because he ate my mouth prior to that he’s 27 now.

[Carolyn @KresseGirl]

Yeah, this claim seems believable 🥱

[TucsonBlonde 🇺🇸💙🌊 @TucsonBlonde]

So let me make sure I understand your claim here, because this would be incredibly significant proof of election fraud. And since that is an incredibly serious allegation, I would like to understand the facts.

You begin by stating that they sent you “at least six mail in ballots” to various addresses. That is a terrible thing if true. To clarify, did you find these 6 ballots at your various 6 addresses or are you saying that they sent them to 6 random people, all of whom were able to track you down to your correct address, contact you and gave you the ballot with their address but your name and voter information on it?
Then, given that this would be one of the biggest cases of Election Fraud ever documented you then called…someone. I’m going to assume your State Election Commission? But you didn’t contact anyone else when they told you that “signature verification” would catch any extras that were submitted? Knowing as I’m absolutely certain you do that the MAGA wing is critically concerned with the integrity of our elections 🙄) and rather desperately seeking ANY PROOF of election fraud, you didn’t reach out to your state Senator? A Representative? To the Federal Election Commission? Your local news station? Fox News? You had 6 ballots in your hands, each with a different address but your name and voting information, and you didn’t report this to anyone else? That seems to be incredibly strange given the seriousness of this situation and makes your claim rather difficult to understand. Can you explain why you made that choice? Why you didn’t immediately go to your state or Federal officials with this vital, irrefutable physical proof of extraordinary misconduct & outright fraud? I mean this is exactly the kind of proof trump has been longing for. So why would you not have reported such an obvious case of election fraud EVERYWHERE?

And then, the last claim you assert, that they already showed your vote being cast before you ever returned one of the 6 ballots you had, but you didn’t immediately contact anyone in charge of the elections at the federal, state or local level to immediately refute that vote and to demand justice as is your right and indeed responsibility when being faced with your vote being stolen? How do I know you didn’t do that? Well Elisabeth, because it would have been headline news for months, 24/7. We would have seen your face, we would all know your story and you would be the face of a complete overhaul of our election system because this is the kind of irrefutable proof that this administration has wet dreams about. That’s how I know.

Can you see why I’m having a bit of trouble believing your claims here today Elisabeth? You have the 6 ballots in your hands, that kind of proof means your story would have justifiably been the headline for weeks in every publication in America, so what gives? Because they have been scouring elections in every major city in every single state trying to find even a fraction of what you’re claiming.
I’m afraid this didn’t pass even the most basic sniff test. It’s not just difficult to believe, it’s utterly ludicrous. You are 100% lying, and at this point, I think we need to start compiling lists not just of elected officials and talking heads who are lying about our elections, but of people like you who make a conscious decision to fabricate more lies about our elections and hold you accountable. Even if it’s just to drag your lying ass in front of the cameras so everyone can hear for themselves you having to admit that you told a deliberate lie to further harm our electoral system, because every time one of you shit stains do this, you directly, willfully and intentionally damaging our country, and I’m sick and tired of you fucking losers not being held accountable for the damage you chose to cause. Fuck all the way off Elizabeth, if it were up to me we would deport every one of you mentally stunted traitors.

In 2018, when @HunterBiden was suffering the most with addiction, Joe Biden left this touching voicemail for him.

Sean Hannity and Fox News used this recording to try and hurt Joe Biden during the election.

[Mike Young @micyoung75]

Seven years sober. Federal pardon. Half a million people watching him make crack cocaine jokes with more self-possession than most people manage on their best day.

We spent years using Hunter Biden as a political prop. His addiction was a weapon before it was a story. His recovery was ignored because recovery does not move the same needle that relapse does. The caricature was more useful than the person, so the caricature is what we got.

That's over now. He is speaking in his own voice for the first time — unmediated by lawyers, White House optics, or the campaign calculus of people who needed him manageable. What's coming through is something the prop version couldn't carry: actual human texture. Wit without defensiveness. Accountability without performance. A son who watched his father get used and hasn't pretended otherwise.

You don't have to agree with his politics. You don't have to rehabilitate the Biden presidency to receive this honestly. What you owe him — what we owe anyone who survives what he survived and speaks about it without self-pity — is the same thing Patti Davis asked us to give: the recognition that there are a lot of Hunter Bidens in this world. Most of them never get heard. He finally is.

That's worth something. Receive it that way.

How many can say this:

New Yorker, February 2026:
$4.05 billion in family take from ventures that exist because he’s president.

Forbes:
his net worth went from $3.9 billion to $7.3 billion by September 2025. Nearly doubled in eight months.

Wall Street Journal:
$4 billion in proceeds and paper wealth from ventures launched since his re-election.

House Oversight Democrats’ wealth tracker:
$5.1 billion in new family money.

Bloomberg:
crypto alone added $1.4 billion in a single year. One-fifth of the family fortune now sits in digital assets that didn’t exist the first time he ran.

All that work is really paying off.
