Trump ousted all three members of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, a bipartisan agency that works with state officials to ensure free and fair elections.
Nice try, Mr. President.
We won't let you sabotage the midterm elections. This is a democracy, not a dictatorship.
Ken Paxton just denied our public information request for the Hoffman Files.
Adam Hoffman — an admitted child molester — should be in prison, but Ken Paxton let him off the hook. Texans deserve to know why.
We don’t need any more pedophile protectors in our government.
To everyone celebrating the first flight on Qatar Force One today, understand what you are actually applauding.
A foreign government handed the sitting President of the United States a $400 million plane. American taxpayers then paid to retrofit it, with an estimated cost of at least another $400 million (some estimates far higher), for security and communications work in a Texas hangar since last September.
When Trump leaves office, the plane does not stay with the government. Ownership transfers to his presidential library foundation. In other words, he keeps it.
You are being asked to treat pure corruption as normal, to shrug at a President personally profiting from a foreign gift the taxpayers paid to upgrade.
In any other administration this would be the scandal that ends a presidency.
With Trump, it’s Wednesday.

Ronald Reagan: “You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman…But Anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American…This, I believe, is one of the most important sources of America's greatness.”🇺🇸
What this means is that the jury verdict that determined that @realDonaldTrump had sexually abused my friend E. Jean Carroll by penetrating her vagina with his fingers, and therefore had defamed her by denying that he had done so, will stand as a final and conclusive judgment.
The highly respected district judge who tried the case, the Hon. Lewis A. Kaplan, correctly stated multiple times that the jury's finding of sexual abuse under New York law meant that, in common parlance and under the law of most jurisdictions, Donald Trump was found to have raped E. Jean.
So henceforth and forever more, it will be completely accurate—and utterly inactionable under the common and constitutional law of defamation—to state the following fact:
DONALD J. TRUMP IS AN ADJUDICATED RAPIST.
Trump bought up to $5M in Axon stock, a taser company, two weeks before ICE sought a contract for tasers.
He’s also bought stock in Palantir, Dell, and Nvidia — all of whom have been awarded massive government contracts.
Has a president ever profited so brazenly from the office?
The Supreme Court today made a corrupt campaign finance system even worse. The Court struck down limits on the coordination between candidates and political parties, giving billionaires even more power.
Billionaires buying elections is not democracy. It’s Oligarchy.
When something breaks, most of us replace it. At this Brooklyn repair cafe, volunteers are helping neighbors fix everything from lamps and jeans to vintage fans and old smartwatches for free. The events are part of a growing global movement to reduce waste, save money and bring back repair skills that many people say have been lost.
Hey Proud MAGA veterans, listen to this, and listen carefully👂🇺🇸
WWII Veteran and Purple Heart recipient Robert Hilliard about ICE detention camps:
"Next week I'll be 101 years old. In February 1944 when I was 18 years old I was inducted into the army and what they taught me to do there was to kill people who set up detention camps. Can you imagine how I felt earlier this year when they announced that one of the future detention camps would be at that same camp landing in Florida?
We have a fascist, a fascist government, that allows innocent people to be put in detention camps and incarcerated."
