My personal hero. He survived Omaha Beach. Later he helped liberate Dachau. Thank you Hank. Thanks to my dad, my uncles, aunts, all my ancestors. Grateful for all my fellow countrymen and women who served our nation.

The entire tax code needs to be overhauled if a guy like Zuckerberg can cash $4 billion in stock options and the company can write it off and avoid paying $355 million in taxes by calling him a "researcher"

We cannot become numb to this.

😳 Trump wants to redirect $200B “toward AI, away from Colleges”*** The plan was laid out in a new report by the Office of Science & Technology Policy (OSTP) — led by “Peter Thiel Protégé” Michael Kratsios. 1/

I think I'm getting the hang of this.

[Bryan Behar @bryanbehar]

Is there anything more MAGA than the smug arrogance of someone who’s dead wrong but doesn’t realize it yet?

[Rich Raho @RichRaho]

The SCOTUS ruling in favor of resuming deportations of migrants to unknown countries is an abomination. As Pope Francis often said: “Migrants are not pawns of the chessboard of humanity; they are people with stories who deserve our love and care.”

Here's footage of Jack Smith at the Iowa vs. Maryland game on February 3rd, 2024 btw

CNN is granted access inside an immigration court hearing where dozens of children facing deportation, some as young as three years old, appealed to stay in the United States. Many of them facing the judge without an attorney representing them.

It’s not the theft. The raping of women and children. The treason. The murder of innocent people. His deadly coup attempt. The fact that he damn near killed us all the first time. No, it took trump actually hurting MAGA financially for them to realize trump’s a piece of shit. 🙄

7 frat boys raped an unconscious woman but it's even more disturbing that 50 other guys were on the group chat that received the message "free pussy" but did nothing

[Mark S. Zaid @MarkSZaidEsq]

This will be corrected soon enough.

[James B Wells @JamesWellsB2]

@MarkSZaidEsq The Memorial to all of those who died while working for USAID, including my father, used to be in the lobby of the USAID building. It's now in the US State Department building where the public cannot access it.

[Hoodlum 🇺🇸 @NotHoodlum]

Elizabeth Holmes, the fraud enthusiast behind Theranos, is apparently angling for a Trump pardon.

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 presidential election, President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

We absolutely, positively want a delusional, psychotic and psycopathic president talking about taking cities out with nuclear weapons.

It’s all good, right? Nothing to see here, media?

[Brown Eyed Susan @smc429]

The fact that Trump buried his first wife behind a golf course clubhouse—and her kids signed off on it—says everything you need to know about that family's complete lack of humanity.

[ProPublica @propublica]

ProPublica obtained a vast cache of IRS information showing how billionaires like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk pay little in income tax compared to their massive wealth — sometimes, even nothing.

Trump had $400 million in his PAC and he STILL decided that he needed to steal taxpayer money to pay for campaign ads for the midterms.

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

Ken Paxton: The only thing that really saves us is that the Supreme Court came along and allowed Super PACs. Otherwise... I would be sitting here and never have a chance...
