The Incident: On April 25, 1980, the Trump Organization executed an eviction against Mary Filan, a 74-year-old widow who was partially paralyzed from a recent stroke.
The Location: The eviction occurred at her rent-controlled apartment in Flushing, Queens, where she had lived for over 30 years.
The Dispute: The Trump Organization claimed she owed four months of back rent. However, Filan maintained that her rent was fully paid, stating that her last bill was a minor balance of $10.20, which she had already cleared.
The Aftermath: City marshals and moving crews removed her belongings—including her furniture and jewelry—leaving her sitting on a laundry hamper in the apartment. Due to the trauma and her medical condition, neighbors and city social services arranged for her immediate admission to a local hospital.
Joe Conason for the Village Voice in May 1980 under the headline "Trump Evicts Stroke Victim, 74." The case also received brief coverage in The New York Times. When questioned at the time, a spokesperson for the Trump Organization stated that management handled those issues and that they "don't get involved with individual cases."

Nothing to see here …. Move along…. 🤬🤬🤬

Cornyn justifies his support for Blanche:

“That’s one of those things that can’t be remedied by a ‘no’ vote.”

What a fucking coward.

President Trump said on Fox News, “Gas is $1.99 a gallon in three states.”

Ah, yes — the State of Denial, the State of Delusion, and the State of Confusion. 🤨

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

This is why this is not just about Max Miller. It’s about “devout Christian” House Republican leadership who is standing with this guy because they crave power above all else. It’s the culture of MAGA and it comes straight from Trump. Vote them out.

[Cuckturd @CattardSlim]

Translation: John Thune has carefully reviewed the vote count & has enough to confirm Todd Blanche without me.

Therefore, unlike with Brett Kavanagh, I can now pretend to care about character. 👍

EXTREMELY DISTURBING: Ohio GOP lawmaker caught on tape admitting to climbing into bed with his minor daughter in his underwear!

When asked if he was erect during the incident, in which the victim said she was "brought to tears," Creech reportedly said "I'm not sure if I had a hard on... I'm getting kind of old, things don't really work like they used to."

Republicans like Gary Click and Jon Husted and standing by State Rep. Rodney Creech, despite the disturbing allegations.

[Trump Lie Tracker (Commentary Account) @MAGALieTracker]

BREAKING: John Cornyn explains his complete and total capitulation to Trump by saying that “there’s nothing we could do to rein in the president.” He is a sitting U.S. Senator. He could have held the line and blocked Blanche’s confirmation. Shameful.

You’re in Congress. THAT’S YOUR FUCKING JOB

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Want cheaper groceries, gas, or for this pointless war in Iran to end? Sorry, the GOP said "there's nothing we could do to rein in the president." You'll just have to suffer.

The Republican Party has utterly failed you, MAGA.

BREAKING: The Trump administration refunds $100 billion in tariffs to major U.S. corporations and Howard Lutnick's firm Cantor Fitzgerald

The tariffs were mostly paid by average Americans through increased prices.

Anyone wonder why Trump isn't being arrested for money laundering?

[Adam Klasfeld @KlasfeldReports]

Fun constitutional fact:

The Framers considered Congress to be a check on the power of the Executive.

[Tara Palmeri @tarapalmeri]

Sen. Tillis unfortunately did what I expected. He dodged a meeting with the survivors of Epstein, despite agreeing to meet on camera last week. They waited in his office for 45 minutes with his aides, until they were informed that he was not coming.

If there were tapes of people cutting the Reflecting pool with a box knife don't you think it would be wall to wall on Fox News? Wouldn't Sean Hannity have a tramp stamp of it on his lower back? Wouldn't Jesse Watters be in a submarine in the pool to retrace the steps of the vandals?
