Just so weโre not forgetting, Elon Musk bought the presidency, used DOGE to kill investigations into his businesses, gave himself billions in govt contracts, found no waste, then bailed.

โHello Melania Trump.
My name is Juliette Bryant โ an Epstien survivor.
You want girls to testify under oath? Here I am. Everything Iโve said is TRUE.
Too bad so many of the girls who already testified ended up dead.
Maybe itโs time you and your husband testify under oath too.
What are you hiding?โ

BREAKING: Calls to expand the Supreme Court EXPLODE after they ruled that Americans can't sue the maker of Roundup weedkiller for causing cancer โ blocking thousands of lawsuit.
These Republican justices are utterly corrupt...
"Impeach the corrupt right-wing justices and pack the fucking court already. Enough," wrote leftist commentator Kyle Kulinski on X.
"SCOTUS rules Monsanto/Bayer canโt be sued for omitting a warning even if their herbicides do cause cancer. Even if the legal reasoning of the court is sound in this case, itโs a blatant travesty of justice," Republican Congressman Thomas Massie wrote on X. "Congress and the President can fix this and we absolutely should."
The court's decision to side with Bayer โ which became the manufacturer of Roundup after they purchased the maker Monsanto in 2018 โ is the latest in a long string of decisions in which the justices have sided with corporate interests over the welfare of the American people. In its current state, with a Republican majority, the Supreme Court functions as just another arm of these massive companies.
They ruled against a Missouri man who convincingly argued that his cancer was caused by Roundup. A jury had previously awarded him $1.25 million. The Trump administration supported Monsanto in this case, removing any lingering doubt that the "Make America Healthy Again" shtick was a farce. This White House was always going to choose profits over people.
The decision comes after Bayer was hit by a deluge of lawsuits for failing to properly warn customers that their product can cause cancer. The justices' incredibly tenuous logic was that because federal regulations have not found the cancer link in question, a label is not required and failure-to-warn lawsuits at a state level are illegitimate.
Jay Feldman of Beyond Pesticides, a health and environmental group, called the ruling "a tragic setback for public and environmental health,."
It's time we stop pretending that the Supreme Court is some sacred, nonpartisan institution. Right-wingers have spent decades stacking it with reactionary ideologues in order to undermine the public interest and entrench the power of the super-rich and corporations. Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito literally take bribes from billionaires in the form of lavish gifts and trips. They're not even pretending at legitimacy.
That leaves us with one option. Since the court is now nothing more than a partisan battleground, we need to start taking territory. Expand the court and nominate liberal justices to seize back control of our democracy!

BREAKING: ARE YOU KIDDING!? Trump gets caught funneling your tax dollars into a pricey vanity project inside the White House โ after promising to pay for it himself.
He keeps pulling this con and MAGA keeps falling for it...
According to a new report in The Atlantic, Trump replaced the paved walkway that connects the White House Residence to the Oval Office, swapping out Tennessee flagstone for incredibly expensive African granite that was carved in Italy. When he was asked in March who would shoulder the bill, Trump said "Paid for me."
As it turns out, he was lying through his dentures.
Budget documents from the National Park Service reviewed by The Atlantic reveal that the walkway project cost taxpayers $689,232 and is just one piece of a $1.3 million project that also included repairing stone and masonry and upgrading doors. Meanwhile, average Americans can barely afford groceries.
But it gets even worse....
Documents marked as a โrush project at request of POTUS" reveal that the Park Service also wasted $347,503 to "remove and replace the stucco on the colonnade wall" so that Trump could "affix gold frames and plaques mocking some of his predecessors." In other words, he took money out of our pockets and used it to make the White House uglier while slinging partisan mud.
Spending on projects in parks outside of the Washington, D.C. area have been slashed by a jaw-dropping $854 million, or 68%. Meanwhile, spending in the capital spiked by $100 million. As Trump's presidency collapses into failure, he's desperately trying to build a physical legacy for himself outside of his window.
Every single one of those dollars should have gone towards their intended purpose, which is maintaining and upgrading our beloved National Parks. But of course Trump doesn't care about our parks because they belong to everyone. It doesn't matter to him if American families are able to enjoy the natural splendor of our beautiful country like generations before have. All he cares about is slapping his tacky aesthetic on everything within reach.
"This previously undisclosed spending is part of an enormous shift of taxpayer cash away from national parks around the country and into the Washington area," writes Michael Scherer for The Atlantic. "In order to pay for the presidentโs projects, the parks have had to cancel needed repairs, slash their budgets, and operate with fewer employees."
Scherer adds that Park Service employees say that there's a "quiet crisis unfolding" as the Interior Department's budget shrinks and funds are moved away from the usual priorities.
Projects that got stiffed include a much-needed "$1.5 million roof-replacement project at the Yellowstone Center for Resources to halt pest invasions and water leaks, more than $3 million to continue operating the free-bus system in Acadia National Park, and a roughly $424,000 guardrail replacement on the cliff edge of Black Canyon in Coloradoโs Gunnison National Park, a project needed to rectify a 'significant safety hazard for visitors.'"
This is what happens when you elect the very worst that America has to offer. Everything of value gets reduced to ash.
