"Kex Paxton is gallivanting throughout Europe with his mistress. His wife is divorcing him on biblical grounds. He's committed voter fraud. He's been impeached by his own party. He's been indicted by his own party. He's had his own lawyer turn on him.
He's just not a good dude, and I think the theme of this week has been that the American people are sick of scumbags. When are Republicans gonna start calling for Ken Paxton to drop out?"
If you want to know what truly selfless service looks like, look no further than Jamie Raskin — the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee 💙
In late 2022, he was diagnosed with large B-cell lymphoma — a serious but curable form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
This was his second cancer fight; he previously beat colon cancer in 2010.
Treatments were administered at the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center — named after Green Bay’s very own — and they were intense. Four months. Relentless.
But Raskin never missed a vote! He continued working as the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee throughout his treatment, though doctors required him to limit in-person exposure due to a compromised immune system.
Today, Raskin is cancer-free. But this was far from his only extraordinarily personal, public battle: in late 2020, his son died by suicide. Days later, Raskin’s life was threatened by Trump supporters on January 6th.
He still showed up.
He never missed work.
And he MOST definitely never wobbled out of an interview 😉
Listen to Ana Navarro summarize the great American tragedy of electing a self-dealing, serial lying sociopath and conman as president of the United States. Every fucking deceitful decision he makes is for his own self-enrichment — and WE PAY FOR IT ALL.
BREAKING: French Senator Claude Malhuret TORCHES Trump and his alcoholic, drug-addicted administration on the floor of the Luxembourg Palace: "Every time the Epstein affair resurfaces, bombs explode somewhere in the world and cause a distraction!"
This might be the greatest MAGA takedown of all time. Nobody was spared...
"A year ago, here in France, I compared Trump's presidency to Nero's Court. I was wrong. It's the miracle court. An anti-vaxxer, former heroin addict as Minister of Health," he said, referring to RFK Jr.
Malhuret's comparison to the mad Emperor Nero is fitting. It's said that he fiddled while Rome burned. In Trump's case, he's building a ballroom while the entire world goes up in flames.
"A climate-skeptic Minister of Economy. An alcoholic TV host, Minister of the Armed Forces," Malhuret continued, referring to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
"An old Qatar agent, Minister of Justice. A groupie of Putin, Minister of National Security," Malhuret went on, referring to Attorney General Pam Bondi and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. Bondi previously worked for the Ballard Partners firm which raked in $115,000 a month by lobbying on behalf of Qatar.
"A Turkish proverb says 'When a clown settles in a palace, he does not become king, it is the palace that becomes a circus," said Malhuret. "His fine team has decided to create a competitor to the UN. Since the creation of the Board of Peace, Trump has triggered more military strikes than Biden during his entire term."
"Every time the Epstein affair resurfaces, bombs explode somewhere in the world and cause a distraction," he continued. "Bomb more to win more."
This is how the world now sees the American president: as a pedophile desperately exploiting his role as commander-in-chief to obscure the fact that he preyed on children with his long-time pal Jeffrey Epstein.
"There isn't a single country where Trump did not take advantage of the situation to enrich himself without ever forgetting his family. A Boeing plane offered by Qatar," he said, referring to the $400 million jet that Qatar "gifted" to Trump. "Investment in all Gulf projects or elsewhere. Stock market manipulation that only a few insiders benefit from."
"Any one of these conflicts of interest would have caused an immediate procedure of impeachment here," Malhuret. "But we are not here. We are in MAGA's America where public business is conducted in favor of private interests."
Rarely have we heard such an exhaustive yet succinct distillation of the Trump administration's rampant criminality and incompetence. By focusing on individual Cabinet members and what makes them uniquely unfit for office and then expanding the aperture to the broader patterns of corruption and malignancy, Malhuret delivered a master class in political messaging.
Every mainstream outlet in the U.S. should be running this speech to show Americans what the world thinks of our leaders.
Since they won't, please make sure to like and share to spread this far and wide!
This is what a President and First Lady look and act like. It’s so obvious how much they love and respect each other too. The Nobel Peace Prize should be his next. 👇👇👇
The cathedral on the grounds of the historic Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built around 1050 and one of the holiest sites in Eastern Europe, is on fire tonight as Russia launches another mass missile and drone attack on Ukraine’s capital. Mayor Klitschko confirmed the blaze.
If you don't find it completely fucked up that trump is using his power to send the U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE after a woman he sexually assaulted, you are a damaged human being.
#BREAKING: Lawrence: “Stupid is an accurate but woefully inadequate word to describe the Trump team’s approach to Donald Trump’s war. New reporting by the New York Times indicates there is even more proof that from the start, they have had NO IDEA what they are doing and no ability to anticipate the most obvious results of launching such a war including blocking 20% of the world’s oil supply from moving through the Strait of Hormuz thereby sending the world’s oil prices skyrocketing along with the price of gasoline in the United States…”🤦♀️
Russia is providing Iran with intell to kill Americans and President Zelensky is more concerned than President Trump. I love this man for speaking up, Glory to Ukraine. 🇺🇦
Trump and his FCC Chair Brendan Carr are attacking the 1st Amendment again. It would be easy to miss this story in the press of the news, but our continued exercise of our 1st Amendment rights & advocacy for the principle itself are essential to its survival—it’s a fundamental threat to Trump’s ability to accumulate more power. https://t.co/BBe4VUrjCU
BREAKING: In a powerful moment, France's President Emmanuel Macron just powerfully decried Donald Trump's decision to revoke sanctions on Russian oil. Our allies are furious with Donald Trump. This is terrible.
