❓Did you know❓

In 1981 in the United States, the top 1% of adults earned 27-times what the bottom 50% earned. That’s a huge divide, but it gets worse.

By 2016, the top 1% earned a massive *81-times more* than the bottom 50% of the population! 81x’s 😳🤯🤷🏻‍♀️

BREAKING: HOLY SH*T! Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's son secretly received a top job inside the Trump administration while Alito was ruling on massive cases involving the White House.

This is corruption, nepotism, and in-kind bribery all wrapped up in one...

Philip Alito, the son of far-right Justice Samuel Alito, was given an appointment as a lawyer at the Treasury Department early on in Trump's second term. His father was aware of the appointment and did nothing to block it, unsurprising since Alito has zero interest in avoiding conflicts of interest or maintaining the legitimacy of the court.

This is the same Samuel Alito who was caught accepting bribes from billionaire Paul Singer in the form of luxury jet travel and an expensive fishing vacation. And that's just what we know about.

According to NOTUS, four government officials confirmed that Alito's son is working inside the office of the general counsel, which supports Treasury Secretary Bessent. Notus described the arrangement as a "closely guarded secret."

Philip Alito, in an apparent effort to maintain a low profile, does not have a public resume, LinkedIn profile, or a presence on the Treasury Department. Most of the images available of him online are older, from when his father was first appointed to the court. He's a ghost in the system, getting paid by our tax dollars, and presumably whispering in his father's ear to tilt rulings in Trump's favor.

“Everybody knew who he was. I think it’s fair to say he kept a pretty low profile. I kind of had the impression that he was kind of a little bit sheepish about his celebrity affiliation. You’d go into a meeting and if people were introducing themselves by first and last name, he’d just say ‘Phil,’ not Phil Alito. He’s a pretty soft-spoken guy,” one official stated.

The efforts to keep his identity shielded from not only the public, but his co-workers, proves that he knows what he's doing is deeply improper. If there was nothing to hide, he wouldn't need to keep his head down. But Alito, and presumably his father, know that this appointment further damages what little credibility the Supreme Court has left.

“There’s no doubt he got that position because of who he is,” another official told NOTUS. “[Advisers] are in all the meetings, so they knew all the issues across the board.”

Damningly, the younger Alito was working his Treasury job when the court ruled on Trump's tariffs. While the administration was ultimately defeated, Justice Alito joined with Brett Kavanaugh to rule in favor of Trump. At no point in the process did he disclose in court documents that his son was working for one side, nor did he recuse himself. The administration is insisting that the younger Alito had no role in the case, but this White House lies through its teeth at every turn.

And the problem hasn't diminished in the slightest. Trump's $1.776 billion slush fund for January 6th insurrectionists, MAGA loyalist, and Republican child molesters is getting hammered by lawsuits right now. When one of these cases inevitably ends up in front of the Supreme Court, Justice Alito will once again be ruling on a case in which his son has a vested interest in a particular outcome.

These crooks are laughing in our faces as they line their pockets, rig the system, and set their children up to do the same for the next generation.

Phillip Alito must be fired and Samuel Alito must be impeached!

The family of a child who was repeatedly raped by a man who Ken Paxton let off with no new jail time is speaking out:

“The fact that Attorney General Ken Paxton allowed this man to get away with molesting and sexually abusing [our] son for three years is completely disqualifying.

Adam Hoffman could have faced life in prison. Instead, Ken Paxton and his office offered him a deal that kept him off the sex-offender registry and included no new jail time.”

The U.S. working with other NATO allies must build up our air defenses in Ukraine and in countries bordering the region. The Secretary of Defense unilaterally pulled out the armored brigade from Romania without a single Russian concession. Weakness incites Russian aggression.

NEW: Trump’s DOJ is seeking the names, addresses, and banking information of Reddit and X users who criticized the administration’s deportation policies, per Bloomberg.

The subpoenas came from the US Attorney’s Office in Washington, led by Trump ally Jeanine Pirro. The users still haven’t been told what crimes they supposedly committed, and their lawyers say it looks more like an effort to scare and silence critics than a real investigation.

🚨 Trump has pardoned Trevor Milton, a man convicted of stealing $695 million from investors.

This pardon came after Milton donated nearly $1 million to Trump's PAC.

I don’t understand why people are so upset Ken Paxton is the Republican Texas Senate nominee. He meets all the @GOP prerequisites:

✔️Fraud
✔️Adultery
✔️Hypocrisy
✔️Corruption
✔️Abuse of Power
✔️Lies and Disinformation
✔️Sexual Abuse and Pedophilia Enablement
✔️Trump Endorsement

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

Dear @realDonaldTrump:

You are an adjudicated digital rapist. Nothing can change that, because it's a fact. And the evidence was not contested—because you were too scared to testify.

Feel free to come after me, too.

Best,
George

P.S. Fuck you.

BREAKING: "Shut up you ugly f*ck" — The official Democratic account on X claps back at Stephen Miller after he insanely accused Democratic candidate James Talarico of being "transgender."

The gloves have really come off now...

"The Democrats made history in Texas by nominating their first transgender senate candidate," Miller wrote in response to a tweet by the Democratic X account touting Talarico's run for the Senate in Texas.

"shut up you ugly fuck," the Democrats' official account responded.

The response immediately went viral, with many liberals cheering on the party for refusing to play polite with a monster like Miller. Republicans predictably clutched their pearls and decried the lack of civility — a rich complaint coming from a party led by a profane pedophile.

To point out the incredibly obvious here: James Talarico is not transgender. He is a cisgender, heterosexual Christian man with a loving girlfriend. Of course, even if he were trans (or nonbinary or gay or any other identity) that would in no way affect his ability to serve the people of Texas. What matters are his politics.

Miller's shamefully dishonest attack is proof positive that Republicans are in full-blown panic mode over Talarico's candidacy. He's going up against Ken Paxton, an indicted fraudster and philanderer who was impeached by his own party for taking bribes as state attorney general.

Republicans know that they have nothing to offer Texans in the way of policy, so they're resorting to baseless claims. They have also asserted that Talarico is a vegan, which he is not. The gist of their campaign seems to be that he is insufficiently masculine to represent Texas in the Senate, which shows you just how little conservatives think of voters. They believe that if they throw enough culture war rubbish into the mix, Americans will cease to care about the price of groceries and skyrocketing gas. It won't work.

What do you think?

Is it okay for Democrats to use this kind of language when dealing with psychopaths like Stephen Miller?

Please ❤️ and share if you love seeing Democrats fight back!

The GOP knows Paxton is a scummy, dangerous politician and now they are going to support him anyways, because Trump supported him. Had enough of this yet?

[Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz @RepDWStweets]

Trump's DOJ is committing the largest criminal cover-up in history. Not ONE Epstein affiliate has been held accountable.

If someone abused young girls with Epstein, they're actually more likely to be HIRED by Trump than prosecuted by his Justice Department.

Reporter: Ken Paxton has taken to calling you ‘Talafreako’

@JamesTalarico: If Ken Paxton is worried about freaks, he should stop giving Epstein-style sweetheart deals to pedophiles. This is the guy who just released Adam Hoffman from jail, an admitted child rapist, after one of Ken Paxton’s wealthy lawyer friends got involved in the case.

Ken Paxton even kept him off the sex offender registry. Adam Hoffman was supposed to serve 25 years to life, but instead he served less than a month. As of this week, he’s now back on our streets because of Ken Paxton’s corruption.

Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America, and it is costing Texans, it’s endangering our children, and it must end. The Epstein class has no place in Texas.
