A major bank closing 300 Trump bank accounts because they were flagged for potential money laundering should be a far bigger story…

WHOA!!! Cory Booker unleashed absolute HELL on the Judiciary Committee floor as they voted to advance Todd Blanche to the Senate. 💥

​No fluff, zero filter, just pure real-time accountability.

That's the fire we need. 🔥🍿

CNN side by side video of Trump saying today he didn’t know the reflecting pool contractor and… 

Trump in April saying: I have a guy who's unbelievable at doing swimming pools. I'm going to send my contractor over.

[Willie Ross Jr. Knee Deep @RossKneeDeep]

Trump is made for reality TV. Not reality. His bluster is way bigger than his actual results.

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

So @FoxNews spent weeks talking about the “vandals” destroying the reflecting pool. Now the the Govt has admitted that Trump hired terrible contractors who screwed it up and dropped the charges against the “vandal” our friends at @FoxNews have no coverage of that fact.

So in the minds of most Fox viewers, it was still vandalized.

They are the worst.

[FireFighterDev @fire_starter457]

It’s time to change your news source if you don’t know:

1. Trump’s Capital One accounts were frozen due to money laundering suspicions

2. The DOJ admitted the reflecting pool was not vandalized

3. The SAVE Act is NOT a voter ID bill

4. Cyclosporiasis and measles are on the rise

5. Democratic socialism is NOT communism

While Americans struggle with rising gas prices and inflation, big oil is making billions from the Iran War.

Oil industry profits have more than doubled in just a year, reaching their third highest level in history.

I know there are a lot of folks wondering about the significance of August 3 regarding a potential Senate vacancy. I want everyone to know that this date has no legal impact on my options should there be a vacancy this year. Worth a reminder, right now, there’s one less vote for the SAVE Act, Trump’s war with Iran, or the potential replacement of a SCOTUS justice.

Republicans are saving all their outrage about this until a Democrat becomes president.

[BrooklynDad_Defiant!☮️ @mmpadellan]

It's WILD to me that the President of the United States is selling advance INSIDER INFORMATION for stock trades at $100,000 a pop.

This is literally PEAK corruption.
How is this NOT a bigger story?

Donald Trump was President during COVID. You can’t foam anger out the mouth over Fauci when Trump was his boss could have fired him or ignored his advice at any point.

Dr. Anthony Fauci advised SEVEN Presidents (both Republican and Democratic) on infectious diseases — Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden — that's 38 years.

In these 38 years Dr. Fauci advised on EIGHT major outbreaks:
- Anthrax attacks/biodefense
- SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome)
- Avian influenza/bird flu (primarily H5N1)
- West Nile virus
- MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome)
- Ebola
- Zika
- Chikungunya

Dr. Fauci also advised on THREE major pandemics:
- HIV/AIDS
- 2009 H1N1 influenza (swine flu) — Officially declared a pandemic by the WHO
- COVID-19

Out of 38 years, advising SEVEN U.S. President's from both parties, @RandPaul @SenRandPaul thinks Dr. Fauci LIED to the American people under only ONE "president" - @realDonaldTrump

HERE'S THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER:
- Trump fucked up the handing of the covid pandemic
- Trump doesn't want history to remember him as a fuck up
- He's using Dr. Anthony Fauci as his scapegoat

Can't you people see this "scapegoat" pattern with Trump when he loses, or when he fucks up — he ALWAYS wants to cast blame on someone that isn't him. ALWAYS!!

Scott Galloway: Senator Paul, who filibustered the Patriot Act for ten hours complaining it was a surveillance state, is fine with the surveillance state when he's holding a flashlight.

The bumper sticker America needs isn't prosecute Fauci, it's prevent fucking measles.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

We all knew he was lying about the Reflecting Pool. The problem is that he lies so often that it’s almost impossible to keep up.

So I asked AI to compile claims from just the past twenty-four months and then checked them against official data, contemporaneous reporting and independent fact-checks.

Here is a partial list of 86 lies:
1. He promised to bring prices down “starting on Day One.” Grocery prices remained high and continued rising.
2. After winning, he admitted that prices are very hard to bring down once they have gone up.
3. He said egg prices had fallen 93 percent. They had not fallen remotely close to 93 percent.
4. He said he inherited the highest inflation in American history. He inherited an annual inflation rate of 2.9 percent.
5. When corrected, he changed the claim to the worst inflation in 49 years. That was also false. Annual inflation reached 23.7 percent in 1920.
6. He said there was virtually no inflation during his first term. Consumer prices rose approximately 8 percent.
7. He repeatedly claimed he had already brought inflation down, including during periods when the annual inflation rate was higher than the 2.9 percent reported shortly before he took office.
8. He told Congress inflation was “plummeting.” Prices were still rising overall, including major household expenses such as housing, electricity and medical care.
9. He claimed to have secured $18 trillion in new investment.
10. He then raised the figure to $19.2 trillion.
11. Even the White House’s own tracker listed far less, and its total included multiyear pledges, purchasing agreements, previously announced projects and commitments that might never become actual US investment.
12. He said America was building more factories than ever.
13. He said factory construction was rising.
14. He said the country had achieved its highest growth ever. Manufacturing employment declined, factory-construction claims depended on cherry-picked categories, and economic growth was nowhere near a historical record.
15. He called the country he inherited a dead country. The US economy grew 2.8 percent in 2024, faster than every other major wealthy economy except Spain.
16. He says foreign countries pay his tariffs. American importers pay them and frequently pass the cost on to American consumers.
17. He said the evidence overwhelmingly showed consumers did not pay his tariffs. Economic studies found that American consumers and businesses absorbed nearly all their cost.
18. He said tariff revenue came with “no inflation.” Prices continued rising, and economic research found that the tariffs themselves increased costs for American consumers and businesses.
19. He repeatedly said drug prices were down 70, 80 or 90 percent. No broad measure of prescription-drug prices showed anything close to those reductions.
20. He said Medicaid was “left the same.” The Congressional Budget Office estimated that the legislation would reduce federal Medicaid spending by roughly $930 billion over ten years.
21. He said Americans were “not going to feel any of it.” The Congressional Budget Office projected that the legislation would leave approximately 11.8 million more people uninsured.
22. He said the Medicaid changes touched only waste, fraud and abuse. Independent analyses found that the legislation reduced coverage and federal spending far beyond fraudulent claims.
23. He said he had eliminated taxes on Social Security. The law created a temporary deduction, unavailable to many beneficiaries, that expires after 2028. It did not abolish taxation of Social Security benefits.
24. He said taxes would rise 68 percent without his bill. No credible independent estimate came close to supporting that figure.
25. He then declared, “I’ve kept all my promises and much more.”
26. He publicly promised at least 53 times to end the Ukraine war within 24 hours, or even before taking office.

Donald Trump and Jeanine Pirro tried to put an innocent man in jail rather than admit the contractor Trump paid $14 million to renovate the reflecting pool did a shitty job. They’d rather destroy a person’s life than admit they were wrong.
