Waste, fraud, and abuse.

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in history.

[rootwoman123 @rootwoman123]

Who did it better?

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

It’s still Twitter.
It’s still the Kennedy Center.
It’s still the Department of Defense.
It’s still the Gulf of Mexico.
And Donald Trump is still a rapist.

🚨 WOW.

Trump’s financial disclosure forms reportedly show he bought between $1 MILLION and $5 MILLION in Dell stock earlier this year.

Then THIS WEEK…

the Pentagon awarded Dell a contract worth MORE THAN $9 BILLION.

Read that again slowly.

🚨 WOW.

Sen. Blumenthal says he was “shocked” after Republicans quietly inserted a provision giving ONLY U.S. senators the right to sue the federal government for constitutional violations.

Not ordinary Americans.

Just senators.

Think about how insane that is.

Lawmakers looked at government overreach and basically said:

“You know who really needs extra protection here?
Us.”

Meanwhile everyday Americans can allegedly be detained, surveilled, have records accessed, or rights violated…

and they get told:
“Good luck.”

The provision got killed after backlash.
But the fact it was inserted at all tells you everything.

This is Timothy Hudson. He raped & killed his stepsister. A judge ruled because he’s 16 he gets to spend time at home with family awaiting trial.
He’s Not an immigrant. Not a Black or brown person. A US citizen with the complexion for protection.
16 year old Kalief Browder was tortured for 3 years in prison and solitary on the mere (false) accusation that he allegedly stole a backpack. He died by suicide from the trauma. Hudson gets to chill at home after raping & killing.
This is America.

[LanaQuest aka RosaSparks @LqLana]

Big surprise. Dell has won a fat contract with the Department of Defense.

Trump has been buying Dell stock. Then going on the road promoting them and now coincidentally Dell wins this contract.

Oh did I mention they donated millions to Trump.

They are self-dealing in daylight and don't care who knows about it.

Meanwhile inflation is up. Wages aren't keeping up with the high costs.

But Biden…

Vance Boelter, the man who MURDERED Melissa Hortman, just confessed it all.

Talking to a right wing publication, he explained that he shot Melissa and other Democrats that night because of their support of mRNA vaccines.

Right wing misinformation is killing people.

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

BREAKING: A federal judge is now signaling the Trump administration’s so-called “weaponization fund” may have emerged from collusive litigation and could potentially amount to fraud on the court.

That is nuclear-level language from a judge.

“Fraud on the court” is not normal criticism.
It is reserved for situations where a court believes it may have been manipulated, misled, or used as part of a coordinated scheme.

And the judge reportedly pointed to two giant red flags:
- the massive $1.8 billion settlement amount
- and concerns the opposing sides may not have actually been acting as true adversaries

Translation?

The court is openly questioning whether this lawsuit was partially engineered to create a taxpayer-funded political compensation machine.

That is an absolutely extraordinary development.

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨This is one of the most disturbing ICE brutality videos I’ve seen in a long time…

Another angle of this incident shows ICE agents suddenly rushing protesters outside the Newark ICE Facility, then continuously shoving U.S. citizens toward the wheels of a MOVING TRUCK…

until an activist’s LEG is run over.

And the most disturbing part?

The protesters are not charging the agents… The agents are the ones creating the escalation.

And not only that, they are forcing civilians backward toward a MOVING VEHICLE, escalating a situation that was not violent until THEY made it violent.

That is reckless, dangerous force.

So, let’s go over the obvious constitutional violations happening in this video…

1. First Amendment violations, because Americans have the constitutional right to peacefully protest the government.

2. Fourth Amendment violations, because federal agents cannot use excessive or objectively unreasonable force against nonviolent civilians.

3. Fifth Amendment due process concerns, because the government cannot arbitrarily target, intimidate, or assault citizens exercising protected rights.

4. Federal officers can also face liability under 18 U.S. Code § 242 for depriving people of constitutional rights “under color of law.”

When armed federal agents create chaos themselves, then use that chaos to justify violence against civilians, that is an abuse of power.

Call your representatives.
Demand accountability.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

This is what Trump's done to the people's house:

A third of it is rubble.

Another third is a cage match.

What a metaphor.

WTF is wrong with these men.Kevin Etherington a former Oklahoma MAGA district attorney was sentenced to 20 years in prison for 153 child sexual abuse files featuring prepubescent children.

[Daniel Goldman @danielsgoldman]

I spent two hours yesterday at Delaney Hall in Newark where 700 detainees are being held by ICE. What I saw and heard was horrific: worm-infested food, no access to medical care, no way to connect with their families.

Many of the detainees were lawful visa holders, including one 18-year-old who is missing her graduation and prom because she is being held in a cell.

This is not America. This is unacceptable, and it has to stop now.

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

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.”

[Glenn Tunes @glenn_tunes]

ABSOLUTELY FUCKING REPULSIVE THAT PETE HEGSETH REMOVED COLIN POWELLS NAME FROM A LIST OF NOTABLE AMERICANS BURIED AT ARLINGTON CEMETERY 🤬 HE ALSO REMOVED THE NAMES OF EVERY PERSON OF COLOR AND EVERY SINGLE WOMAN ON THE SAME LIST 🤬ONLY WHITE MEN WERE LEFT IN PLACE 🤬

SO PLEASE TELL US ONE MORE TIME HOW THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION RESPECTS AMERICAS FALLEN HEROES 🤬

[Emoluments Clause @Emolclause]

#BREAKING: Psaki: “…I have to start tonight with a story that in any other administration, would be grounds for opening an impeachment inquiry, because today ProPublica reported that the White House intervened to get a $620 million deal for a company tied to President Trump’s adult son @DonaldJTrumpJr…the deal in question involved a startup focused on rare earth magnet production called Vulcan Elements and last Summer, Don Jr’s venture capital firm took an undisclosed stake in that company, and wouldn’t you know…three months later, the Pentagon announced that it was giving Vulcan Elements a $620 million loan.”🙄🤦‍♀️

[Brian Allen @allenanalysis]

🚨 HOLY SHIT.

A U.S. citizen just testified before the Senate that ICE agents ignored his passport, detained him, placed him on suicide watch, and released him WITHOUT charges or explanation.

Read that again.

An AMERICAN CITIZEN says he showed agents his passport multiple times…

and still ended up locked in a cell under 24/7 lights, stripped naked, wearing a hospital gown while guards watched him constantly.

His family reportedly had no idea where he was.

Then after all of that?

No charges.
No explanation.
Just released.
