Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

Trump’s Truth Social posting over the last hour or so is completely batshit insane. Get a load of this nonstop nuttery.

Hey Ken Paxton :
I am an ex Waco child abuse prosecutor.
And while you are focused on bathroom stalls, I am focused on why you allowed Adam Hoffman sodomize a child and he is still a member in good standing of the Texas Bar.👇

[Qasim Rashid, Esq. @QasimRashid]

This is Adam Hoffman, a 49-year-old Waco, TX attorney. He faced life without parole for repeatedly raping a young boy. Texas AG Ken Paxton offered him 1 day in jail and no need to register as a sex offender. A judge increased his sentence to a whopping 60 days. He gets out in June.

Not an immigrant. Not a trans person. Not a Black or brown person. Every MAGA accusation is a confession.

Trump on the campaign trail is music to the Democrats ears. Bring on his talk of the affordability hoax, the cognitive test they give to people who have had traumatic brain injuries, and that we have the hottest economy in the world.

Trump is cratering support with key demographics: republicans, non-MAGA GOP, white voters, rural voters.

Democrats are winning election after election. Rob Sand may be the governor of Iowa! Greg Abbott says behind closed doors that a Democrat could win statewide. And even folks like Josh Hawley admit there are no GOP accomplishments to speak of. A Republican campaign built on maligning Americans’ cost of living concerns, a vanity ballroom, and a slush fund for criminals is a loser.

A Chicago investment firm, along with billionaires from the most expensive zip code in the country, want to turn Port of Miami’s fuel depot into multi-million luxury mansions, threatening thousands of jobs and billions of dollars in revenue. Only in Miami.

This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it.

Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago.

IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued.

The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk.

The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit.

Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.” 

Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million.

The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out.

This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president.

Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

The President just used his power to exempt himself and his family from audits on every tax return they've ever filed.

If that is not corruption to the highest degree, then what is?

The US government already has a ballroom just down the street. The Andrew Mellon Auditorium is less than a mile away from the White House is beautiful and accommodates more people than the new ballroom will and is owned by the U.S. Government.

Trump one month before the 2024 election: “Think of it - within one year you’re gonna have electric bills and energy bills and gasoline for your cars is going to be 50% cheaper than it is right now. That’s a big thing.”

[Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance]

The Supreme Court, which ordered Alabama to create a second Black opportunity district just three years ago, has lifted that order one week before the primary. The Purcell principle says courts shouldn't permit chaos too close to an election—it's now an open question as to whether there will even be a primary on schedule.

[Jen Rice @jen_rice_]

Supreme Court today: We'll allow Alabama Republicans to change the congressional map in the primary election even though absentee voting has literally already started

Supreme Court last December: November's too late to strike down the GOP's map in TX's March primary election!!

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

Trump doesn't want to pay back the $159 billion that he illegally took from Americans.

The $159 billion was an illegal tax on AMERICANS and he's still pretending that it's not.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Dude is absolutely melting down on social media today, and he couldn’t even toss in a perfunctory “Happy Mother’s Day” among all the crazy stuff he’s been posting

The constitution is not optional. I swore an oath to uphold and defend Florida’s constitution (which bans partisan gerrymandering).

My Republican colleagues ignored theirs.
