🚨 Devon Archer was convicted of stealing $60 million from a Native American tribe.

Trump gave him a pardon in exchange for testifying against Hunter Biden.

[Occupy Democrats @OccupyDemocrats]

BREAKING: Hunter Biden enrages MAGA by penning a brilliant list of things that “most Americans agree on” and it’s as hilarious as it is brutal for Trump.

How many of these do YOU agree with?

Just wait till you get to the Epstein jab…

“Groceries cost too much,” the former President’s son wrote on X.

“Tariffs suck and make no sense.”

“Congress and Presidents shouldn’t trade stocks.”

“The debt is a mess.”

“The border should be secure, but legal immigration is good.”

“Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.”

“Americans are exhausted.”

“AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.”

“Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.”

“Canadians are super fucking cool.”

“Mexicans are chill.”

“Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.”

“Good neighbors are a blessing.”

“Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.”

“We all question, are we alone in the universe?”

We all fuck up along the way.

“Epstein didn’t hang himself.”

“The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.”

“The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!”

“Things we’re told to fight about: Me. Laptop. Vaccines. Transgenders in sports. Pronouns.”

“That’s the joke,” he concluded.

Hunter has been increasingly active on social media lately. He went viral for dismantling a MAGA cultist who absurdly accused his father of “faking” his bone cancer. In another witty exchange, he batted down a Republican’s attempt to shame him for his past drug abuse, causing her to turn empathetic and wish him well. He’s so good at this some have begun half-jokingly referring to him as the “MAGA whisperer.”

What would you add to Hunter’s list?

Please ❤️ and share if you’re a fan if Hunter!

Last Sunday in Chicago, a room full of oncologists stood up in the middle of a scientific presentation. Not at the end. In the middle. Brian Wolpin was reading numbers off a graph in a monotone when the standing ovation started. Daraxonrasib had nearly doubled survival time for pancreatic cancer patients who had already been through one round of chemotherapy - 13.2 months versus 6.7 months. For a disease that killed more than 50,000 Americans last year and that scientists once called "undruggable," that graph represented decades of work finally breaking through.

Here is where that breakthrough came from. The KRAS gene mutation driving most pancreatic cancers was identified in the 1980s with federal research funding. The mouse models that made it possible to study the tumors were developed at MIT and Dana-Farber - institutions that run on federal grants. The discovery that KRAS could be bound to at all came from researchers at Vanderbilt and UCSF. Harold Varmus, then head of the National Cancer Institute - a federal agency - launched the RAS Initiative when private capital dried up because investors thought the target was hopeless. The Frederick National Laboratory, a federal facility, coordinated research across institutions worldwide.

"All of the biology that was understood about RAS... much of that is federally funded," Wolpin said. "It was decades of investment in science."

The Trump administration has repeatedly frozen NIH funding, proposed political appointee review of all federal grants, and is now requiring that funding decisions "align" with administration priorities. The damage, as a Harvard School of Public Health researcher put it, will be invisible for years. It will show up as an absence - the breakthrough that doesn't happen in 2045, the drug that doesn't exist in 2052, the patients who die from a cancer that could have been treated if the research pipeline had stayed intact.

The patient who gets 13.2 months instead of 6.7 months because of daraxonrasib is real and documentable. The patient who gets nothing in 30 years because the funding was cut is invisible. That invisibility is the whole problem.

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

Dear @DAGToddBlanche: You don’t get to decide to “move on” from the Epstein Files or from following the congressional law. That decision can only be made by the American people and Congress.

You will be disbarred. The files will eventually be released.

[Rep. Diana DeGette @RepDianaDeGette]

I am profoundly disturbed by the ejection of Steven Kahn and his colleagues from the American Diabetes Association’s meeting as they handed out copies of their op-ed criticizing the Trump administration’s devastating damage to American biomedical research.

Director Bhattacharya promised to foster open dialogue and debate in science. Instead, he is presiding over an environment where dissent has no place and scientists who dare criticize the regime are cast out.

Director Bhattacharya, other HHS and NIH leadership, and the leadership of the American Diabetes Association must immediately explain what their roles were in the ejection of Dr. Kahn and his colleagues, and anyone involved in what appears to be a blatant act of political censorship must be held accountable.

Censorship and intimidation have no place in science. Discovery, innovation, and the millions of patients who are waiting for cures demand curiosity-driven science, free from political interference.

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

Last night, the House chose to stand with Ukraine, and I was proud to cast my vote.

We passed military and reconstruction aid for Ukraine, plus hard new sanctions on Russia.

We did it over the objections of Mike Johnson and Republican leadership, who spent over a year trying to keep this bill from ever hitting the floor.

Eighteen Republicans crossed the aisle and did the right thing.

Why does this matter?

Because when a giant authoritarian state invades a smaller democracy, there is no gray area. There is no “both sides.”

Vladimir Putin is a thug. He started an unprovoked war. He flattened cities. He stole children from their families. Helping Ukraine isn’t charity. It’s the test of whether we still mean a single word we say about freedom.

I heard every excuse. The war’s winding down, they said, so let’s wait and see. Nonsense. You don’t strengthen a democracy by going wobbly the second things get hard. You don’t stop the next invasion by telling the world American resolve comes with an expiration date. Putin is watching. So is every dictator who dreams of taking what isn’t his by force.

This bill still has to clear the Senate and survive a presidential signature. The odds are long. But the House did its job. And we said it plainly: no country gets swallowed whole just because a tyrant wants it.

I’ll keep fighting to see this through. Ukraine’s fight is our fight, and we do not abandon our friends.

A 24-year-old Polish tennis player arrived in Paris last week ranked 114th in the world, with no sponsors, no guaranteed income, and no certainty she could even pay for her hotel room.

She had to win three qualifying matches just to enter the French Open main draw. Prize money is only paid at the end of the tournament, so a Polish sports drink brand quietly stepped in and covered her hotel bill.

Her name is Maja Chwalinska. And today, she plays in the French Open final.

Before this tournament, she had won exactly one Grand Slam main draw match in her entire career. She had battled depression so severe that in 2021 she couldn't get out of bed. She underwent knee surgery in 2022. She spent years grinding through small tournaments across Europe just to stay afloat.

Then she arrived in Paris, won three qualifiers, and kept winning. Zheng Qinwen. Elise Mertens. Maria Sakkari. Diana Shnaider. Nine straight matches. One set dropped.

She is now the first qualifier in French Open history to reach the final. The last time a qualifier reached a Grand Slam final, it was Emma Raducanu at the 2021 US Open. Raducanu won.

By simply making the final, Chwalinska has earned more prize money than her entire career combined. The runner-up cheque alone is $1.6 million. If she wins today, she takes home $3.25 million.
One week ago she couldn't pay for her hotel room.

In 2024, Trump kept saying that he "didn't need votes." Elon said he'd "go to prison" if Trump lost, and knew the election results 4 hours early. His 4 year old son said that Trump really wasn't the President, and "they'll never know." Russia sent bomb threats to more than 67 swing state election offices, in blue districts, on 11/05/24. On 12/30/24, Biden imposed sanctions on Russia and Iran for "election meddling." CIA whistleblowers say they participated in an audit that showed the election was rigged, and Harris won. Yet, the results weren't contested. Winning all 7 swing states at the rates Trump did was like winning the lottery 7 times in a row. Many Democratic votes weren't counted, and Harris' name was removed from the ballots in Rockland County, NY, spurring a lawsuit. In 2025, Trump stated on camera, at least 3 times, that the 2024 election was "rigged" for him, and thanked Elon for "knowing those vote counting computers." Elon posted that Trump and some GOP members of Congress "wouldn't have won" without him. His ex-girlfriend has now revealed text messages about how he used "space lasers" to rig the election. We all know that Musk owns Starlink, and we've been told it was used in the election. It was reported that several Starlink sattelites exploded within a week afterward. Yet, even knowing that Trump and the GOP are openly trying to rig 2026, our Democratic lawmakers haven't conducted an investigation into the 2024 election. None of them have ever said anything about it. I have no idea why. The truth will eventually come out. The Trump Regime and GOP pose a significant threat to America and its democracy. Even though Democrats hold a minority in Congress, they need to fight, tooth and nail, to SAVE us! THEY MUST FINALLY BREAK THE SILENCE! Urge them to! Help me spread this information!

Our president tried to steal an election. Unlawfully. Lives were lost, cops were beaten. The president is deeply anti American in many respects. And people who know better pretend that opposition to him is derangement, rather than courage, or more importantly, truth.

There’s literally nothing weird about Thomas Matthew Crooks emailing a deputy from Butler, PA before the assassination attempt. It’s not weird that he practiced shooting at the same range Homeland Security used. It’s not weird that the local police and Secret Service spotted Crooks with a rangefinder, photographed him, and texted about him for over an hour and still let him climb the roof with a rifle. It’s not weird that the Secret Service wasn’t flying drones that day, but Crooks was. It’s not weird that Butler was the first Trump rally of the year with Secret Service anti-sniper agents on the roofs. It’s not weird that Crooks’ house looked like a sterile lab with no trash or silverware. And it’s not weird that his body was cremated ten days later before Congress could see it. This is like when people say the CIA was shadowing Oswald before he, and he alone, shot JFK.

[Gianl1974 @Gianl1974]

BREAKING: O.M.G. The woman accusing Graham Platner of "intimidation" has been EXPOSED as a top Republican operative who has worked with his opponent, Susan Collins!

This is EXACTLY what they did to Al Franken…

On Thursday evening, the New York Times ran a story in which a woman, Lindsey Fifield, accused Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner of grabbing her by the arm, twisting her arm, and of standing in a doorway menacingly blocking her exit.

The New York Times could not corroborate any of her accusations, but ran the story anyway, along with allegations from a few other women that Graham Platner could be unsettling, had dark thoughts, and generally had spooky vibes as a boyfriend.

They also spoke to several other women who said he was a lovely boyfriend and they happily supported his candidacy.

It’s now coming out that Lindsey Fifeld is a lifelong GOP operative who has worked with Platner’s Republican opponent, Susan Collins, and successfully persuaded her to vote in favor of Brett Kavanaugh, Trump’s Supreme Court justice who is an ACTUAL rapist.

In one message to a friend, Fifeld wrote “I will personally go campaign for Collins.”

Reporter Ryan Grim at Drop Site News reports that “In 2014, Fifield began work as digital director for American Action Network, a Republican Super PAC that oversees House races. The next year she became social media manager for the Heritage Foundation, where she stayed for the next seven years.”

“In 2022, she joined the Super PAC backing Nikki Haley for president, switching to the official campaign side the next year, and staying until the campaign flamed out. She now lists herself as a visiting fellow at the Independent Women’s Forum, a prominent dark money group that is best known for helping usher Brett Kavanaugh on to the Supreme Court and giving Susan Collins the talking points she needed to make her decisive speech in his favor.“

“The NYT breezed past all this, saying she was ‘a Virginia conservative who has worked for right-leaning groups and Republican campaigns.’”

“Meanwhile, the timeline Fifield gives of their relationship is confusing, because during at least some of that time she was actually dating a different person, her longterm boyfriend who became her fiancee before she called off the wedding in 2018. We all know this because she and [Zionist extremist Bethany] Mandel did a podcast episode on it that went mega-viral in Republican circles back then.”

It should be noted as well that Lindsey Fifeld has a long history of making up baseless lies about Palestinians targeted by the Trump administration like Mahmoud Khalil and Rumeysa Ozturk.

Folks, pardon our French, but this is *bullshit.*

This is an abhorrent attempt to weaponize domestic violence and the mental trauma of dealing with PTSD in order to sink a leftist candidate who staunchly opposes the Israeli genocide of Gaza.

Oh, and if that wasn't enough, the reporter on this article is Katie Gluek, an ardent Zionist whose parents are Israeli settler-occupiers in the West Bank.

Platner’s campaign responded with “Let’s be very clear: This is a lifelong G.O.P. operative who’s dedicated her career to electing Republicans.”

What else is there to say?

Graham Platner is obviously a very imperfect person, but we are not electing him to be our boyfriend. He has been very open about his struggles with PTSD; he saw four of his squadmates killed in an IED explosion in Iraq.

This smear campaign, based on uncorroborated allegations by a woman who literally said she would work for his opponent, is part of his punishment for being a progressive who isn’t afraid to stand against Israel, to stand against the health insurance behemoths, and to demand a better life for the American people.

They managed to sink Al Franken like this. They will NOT succeed again!
