🚨BREAKING: The Trump administration is threatening to hold back terrorism-prevention funding from states unless they comply with a sweeping set of election demands — escalating President Donald Trump’s ongoing attempt to seize power over elections. https://t.co/NN2TkTcqms
James Madison insisted that our bicameral Congress is America’s “preeminent” branch of government—not the president, whose primary job is to “take Care” to faithfully execute our laws, and the Supreme Court whose job is to say what the law is. I wrote in @thenation about the nonsense of “co-equal” branches and how we must advance the voting rights of the people and restore decisive power to our elected representatives in Congress. https://t.co/7XMSE90H1W
The idea that a president would send troops to polling places to intimidate voters is un-American and illegal. I introduced legislation to make sure Trump can’t get around that.
JUST IN: Over 1,200 former DOJ employees just signed a letter urging the Senate to REJECT Todd Blanche's nomination for Attorney General. https://t.co/TG2w7kvH7K
Was the Paramount-Warner Bros merger jammed through for two of Trump's cronies?
Reportedly, career DOJ professionals had serious antitrust questions about the Ellisons' power grab & were overruled
Now it's up to the state AGs, the UK & the EU
What's next w/ @democracynow👇 -TN
Holy sh*t, EVERY LAST WORD that Michael Steele said here! 🔥 🔥
He blasted trump and Republicans for trying to sell Americans a bunch of bullshit on Communism.
"Who's buddy-buddy with all the big name Communists in the world? Donald trump."
Critical programs dismantled, thousands of jobs lost, countless lives ruined and everyone worse off.
And the debt is now higher than ever.
DOGE was a failure of leadership to the highest degree.
Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million.
This year, it’s raising the price of an Xbox by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs.
Please don’t tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down.
Democrats have shown they're willing to force their own candidates out when credible allegations emerge. Republicans choose a different path with Donald Trump.
The Graham Platner story highlights a difference that's impossible to ignore.

We Sarasotans sure are pissed
⚠️⚠️⚠️💰💰💰Why AREN’T THE REST OF FLORIDIANS ? THIS IS ****YOUR MONEY!!
Do the taxpayers of Florida realize that they subsidize New College at the cost of $500,000
PER GRADUATE?!
Using New College’s FY2024 audited financials, the closest estimate is:
Taxpayer subsidy per FY2024 graduate
New College received:
• State noncapital appropriations: $66,585,987
• State capital appropriations: $9,480,372
• Total state appropriations: $76,066,359 
New College awarded:
• 130 bachelor’s degrees
• 9 graduate degrees
• 139 total degrees 
Where’s the DESANTIS APPOINTED BOARD OF GOVERNORS ??
 What makes it particularly hard to stomach for the community is the contrast: while a highly efficient local campus like USF Sarasota-Manatee has spent years building practical programs on a lean budget, millions in public funds are being diverted to a 💰💰💰💰chaotic culture war centered ideological experiment that is bleeding cash….. while funneling massive obscene salaries to DeSantis cronies
Questions loom over New College's budget - WSLR+Fogartyville https://t.co/sxZNXD3y9r.
Folks have to understand that Iran really has no incentive to negotiate in good faith here - they know Trump wants this war to end, and they have all the leverage.
They’re going to take what money they can get and drag out the political pain for Trump as long as possible.
“used his office to intervene on behalf of donors since taking office last year- In at least three separate instances, the attorney general’s office got involved in a legal battle days or weeks after a donor gave $25,000 to Uthmeier’s campaign.”
Make the corruption stop!
Weird. Russia hits apartments, Ukraine responds by hitting military and dual use targets.
One of these strikes is not like the other.
Sucks to suck, Russia
JUST AIRED Tampa station
🥲🐶🐱The VETO PEN of Gov Ron DeSantis not only slashes the budget to make sure counties don’t have storm water /hurricane funding or funding to keep Medicaid recipients in their home vs being sent to more costly nursing homes ….
…. No
For the THIRD YEAR IN A ROW, he cut no kill animal shelters
He loves to do staged puppy photos with Casey and his prop kids at the mansion to give him “I’m really human” Fox /twitter bites , but when it comes down to real life shelters, you’re on your own
Why?
So he could puff his chest and claim no one cuts budgets down to bare bones like I do
All While spending BILLIONS of OUR MONEY on culture wars , legal fees alligator Alcatraz, pet projects for HIS national profile , “overseas trade tours” with his entourage, private jets etc .. etc

Now that the MSM flood is also starting, there’s no way they’re going to be able to keep this hidden until August.
The rumor mill has been going crazy today. Nothing confirmed yet, but it definitely doesn’t sound good.
