Hey media
Not a Platner fan, but why is he a nonstop story and not Ken Paxton's TWENTY indictments by a GOP led-Texas legislature, securities fraud charges and his wife's filing for divorce on "biblical grounds?"
More than half of the publicly identified donors to Trump's White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion during the past six months, according to a report released by a government watchdog group.
I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.
Reminder that the Trump admin is actively refusing to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
Since August he has been fighting to be deported to Costa Rice, which has repeatedly agreed to take him. Instead, Trump’s people want to send him to Africa as punishment for making them look bad.
SCOOP: The CIA has stopped contributing to some ODNI intelligence assessments, including those related to the Iran war, as a result of a year-long feud between the agencies over turf and mission.
“HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN” the president says about a congressman who hasn’t been seen publicly in nearly three months, hasn’t voted since March 5, and has yet to tell his constituents where he is.
There is no world in which this is okay.
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito did not recuse himself from cases involving Trump’s Treasury Department while his own son was secretly working there as a political appointee and attorney.
His son's employment was hidden so thoroughly that his name appears nowhere on the Treasury Department website, he has no public resume, and his bar listings are outdated.
If Alito had recused himself, the secret would have come out. He didn’t recuse himself.
This is a clear conflict of interest, and the American people deserved to know about it.
The federal recusal standard is clear: a justice must step aside in any case where there is a reasonable basis to question whether he or she can be impartial. A justice ruling on cases involving the department where his son works fails that test. The Treasury Department sits at the center of some of the biggest legal fights of this administration, and challenges to Trump’s $1.776 billion January 6 slush fund could be headed to the Court next.
The Supreme Court is the only court in America with no binding code of conduct. That is completely unacceptable, and it has to change NOW.
Congress controls the Power of the Purse, and therefore the Court’s funding. If the Court will not adopt a binding code of conduct with real recusal review on their own, I support withholding their funding until they do.

A Democrat running for office must provide detailed plans on how to fix every issue while a Republican running for office just need to come up with a nickname for their opponent.
New: About three months before the Pentagon announced plans to lend $620 million to Vulcan Elements, Donald Trump Jr.’s venture capital firm took an undisclosed stake in the company. https://t.co/pvAqedZCSp
National Park Service analysis finds that the firm given a no-bid contract for Trump's repair of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is being paid an inflated and excessive profit margin, @Fahrenthold reports. https://t.co/LlKj4R1G9I
When Howard Lutnick found out he had to testify in front of the Oversight Committee, he gave $5 MILLION to a House Republican PAC.
Shortly after donating, James Comer announced his testimony would never be seen by the public. This is blatant corruption. He should be fired.

@Popeyes ordered through the app and the store didn’t have what I ordered. They told me they couldn’t cancel or refund my order I have to go through the app and it says I’m out of luck.
