Just what America needs: more billionaires spending more money on more political influence. Are we not sick of this yet?
My DISCLOSE Act will help cure the billionaire-fueled rot.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is trying to illegally use bureaucratic tricks to sabotage the ACA and strip health insurance from up to five million people.
I'm suing because health care is not a privilege for the wealthy or the healthy. It's a right that I'll always fight to protect.
Chevron just posted $12 billion in profit. Up 400% in a year. Their biggest quarter ever. Exxon made $14.5 billion. You paid for all of it at the pump.
Say what you want about Trump. He’s making something great again. And who’s more deserving than Big Oil.
In 2024 he asked them for a billion dollars and promised their whole wish list in return. This morning they collected.
BREAKING: Senate Republicans blocked Democrats' proposal to end Donald Trump's IRS sweetheart deal.
This deal gives him FULL IMMUNITY from audits on tax returns he's filed.
It's corruption on steroids.
Outrageous. Americans are getting gouged at the pump because of Trump’s Iran War—meanwhile oil companies are DOUBLING their profits off your pain.
Republicans reward them with tax breaks & handouts. Democrats will crack down on corporate greed & hold price gougers accountable.
Trump’s EPA just decided that if a power plant exists solely to supply a data center, it is exempt from the Acid Rain Program. That means it no longer has to comply with the program’s limits on sulfur dioxide emissions, even though the pollution is exactly the same.
Congress created the Acid Rain Program in 1990 because sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides don’t stay where they’re emitted.
They travel downwind, fall as acid rain, damage lakes and forests, and worsen asthma in communities that may be hundreds of miles away.
Nothing about that science changes because the electricity is sold to one customer instead of many.
EPA is trying to create this exemption while avoiding Congress. But agencies cannot rewrite statutes by memo. If Congress intended to exempt privately dedicated power plants from the Acid Rain Program, we would have written legislation to do so. We most certainly have not.
EPA is attempting to narrow a law Congress enacted without Congress’s approval. Courts should reject it, and Congress should make clear that clean air protections apply based on pollution, not on who buys the electricity.
Our kids deserve clean air more than data centers deserve a special loophole.

Katie Miller's experience is a microcosm of why this crusade against Fauci is completely reprehensible.
Rewind the tape 6 years ago, and she was relying on him to help with her health anxiety, back when it wasn't a political liability, before the politicians sacrificed him on the altar of their partisan pursuits.
All of these people are hypocrites. All of them. They were scared, and you were probably scared, too. I was scared, but at least I can fucking admit it.
6 years later, we haven't learned a goddamned thing.
If you're wondering what party will help you keep your Social Security benefits and which one is trying to take them away, this is a Republican on the Senate floor TODAY:
Reminder that on his last day of his first term, Trump awarded a commendation to Dr Fauci "in recognition of his exceptional effort on Operation Warp Speed"
He attacks mail‑in voting while voting by mail. He mocks vaccines while getting vaccinated. He pushes “Buy American” while selling foreign‑made merchandise. He demands action against undocumented workers while his own properties hired them. He rages about classified information while mishandling it. And now he’s falling asleep on the job after calling Joe Biden “Sleepy.” The hypocrisy is staggering.
Hey I know inflation is out of control and a lot of folks can’t afford basic necessities, but at least we’re tackling waste fraud and abuse by buying… *checks notes* 250 Escalades for the government.
The cruelty never ends.
In 2027, just after midterms, Trump plans to eliminate a program that gives insurance companies an estimated $3.6 billion in subsidies a year to blunt increases in premiums for the Medicare prescription plans, known as Part D. The program will end after 2026, according to regime officials.
He spends that much on his stupid Qatari rigged plane and his ballroom. Grr....
I gifted this so you can read it.

🚨ICE pulled Arturo Quinonez Solis out of his bed 3 weeks after open heart surgery and detained him🚨
He is being denied his medication, despite having it in their possession.
Arturo Quinonez Solis is a Gulf War-era Navy veteran, currently detained at Camp East Montana inside Fort Bliss.
His father is a U.S. citizen. He and his legal team are working to establish that he acquired U.S. citizenship at birth through his father.
Despite intervention by @repescobar and his family, he is still facing deportation to Chiapas tomorrow morning! 👀
He is in no condition to fly. The scheduled deportation flight alone could kill him.
