BREAKING: YOU POKED THE BEAR! Rep. Jamie Raskin unleashes a fiery defense of his constituent, the former Olympian who was arrested for allegedly "vandalizing" the Reflecting Pool — and exposes Trump as the real vandal.

This is a brilliant angle...

“Davey Hearn is my constituent, a native-born resident of Montgomery County, a three-time Olympian canoeist, and a famed and celebrated teacher and coach of canoeing and kayaking in our community,” Raskin stated. “He is beloved in my district as a model citizen whether on water or on dry land. He is a great guy.”

The 67-year-old Hearn was arrested last month and indicted by a grand jury (an incredibly easy hurdle to clear). Prosecutors absurdly accused him of "forcefully and violently” tearing up the pool's liner and damaging the sealant. The accusation came as Trump was desperately trying to insist that the hilariously botched renovations were the result of leftist vandals and not the natural consequence of hiring incompetent, crooked contractors to perform the work.

This prosecution is a waste of our time, tax dollars, and a blatant abuse of federal power to help a failed President save face.

"Davey Hearn would never desecrate a federal building or landmark by writing his name on it or affixing his name illegally to it or engaging in any other kind of political graffiti, vandalism or delinquency,” Raskin continued, clearly referring to Trump’s actions. “He would never intentionally damage government property. Whether we are talking about the White House, the Reflecting Pool or the Kennedy Center, Davey would never try to alter, bulldoze or redesign federal property or buildings without explicit Congressional authorization and direction.”

“Davey is an honorable and law-abiding citizen who has won real giant prizes, including eight world championships,” Raskin added. “He did so without any corrupt practices and only through his magnificent hard work and surpassing dedication to the team. He would never try to undercut or sabotage anyone, much less our entire community.”

If he’s found guilty in this ludicrous legal saga, Hearn could face up to 10 years in prison, an absolutely vile miscarriage of justice as Trump, a pedophiliac, war criminal felon continues to walk free.

Please ❤️ and share if you stand with Hearn!

The ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee, Jamie Raskin, claims there is evidence taxpayers are footing the bill for FBI Director Patel's personal travel, citing a letter from Sen. Grassley seeking information on the bureau's spending. The FBI denies the allegations.

This woman is reciting Trump’s words exactly as he said them during the NATO summit.

We have become so inured to Trump’s incoherence that is sanewashed by the media 24/7 that we fail to recognize just how much he’s declined.

Reading a transcript of his words makes it SO CLEAR.

BREAKING: AT LAST! A federal judge just ordered Trump to finally pay E. Jean Carroll her $5 million — after years of him stalling justice.

After years of legal maneuvering, delay tactics, and desperate last-ditch appeals, Donald Trump has finally run out of road.

Federal Judge Lewis Kaplan ordered Wednesday that writer E. Jean Carroll must PROMPTLY receive the $5 million a Manhattan jury awarded her back in May 2023 — after that jury found Trump liable for sexually assaulting her in a department store in the 1990s AND for defaming her by calling her allegations "a Hoax and a lie."

It’s a scenario that would be unthinkable for anyone other than Doanld Trump. A jury of Americans found the President of the United States committed sexual assault. And he has spent years fighting, delaying, and obstructing simply paying the woman he assaulted and then publicly smeared.

The Supreme Court finally slammed the door on his appeal on June 29th. Did that stop him? Of course not. Just hours before Judge Kaplan's order, Trump's lawyers filed yet ANOTHER request asking the justices to reconsider — and to bundle this case with a separate one where a jury ordered him to pay Carroll an additional $83.3 million for defaming her in 2019.

Georgetown Law professor Stephen Vladeck called it exactly what it is: "a transparent play for time."

This is who Donald Trump is. Found liable by a jury of his peers. Ordered by a court to pay. And his response, every single time, is to burn through every possible delay tactic rather than face consequences like anyone else would have to.

Carroll's own filing put it plainly: Trump has "consistently sought to obstruct and delay payment" of a jury's verdict.

The Supreme Court is now in summer recess and won't reconvene until September, meaning Trump's latest delay tactic could buy him months. Meanwhile, his lawyers have already filed notice that they plan to appeal even THIS order.

A jury said he did it. Multiple juries, actually. Nearly $90 million in total judgments against him for assaulting and defaming one woman.

And still, he fights. Still, he delays. Still, he denies.

E. Jean Carroll deserves her money. She deserves her justice. And it's about time Trump stopped running from both.

🚨 MIC DROP OF THE YEAR
Mehdi Hasan just went nuclear on Trump :
“Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant,
the grandson of an immigrant,
and married to an immigrant.
In fact, two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.”

The crowd reaction says it all:

#BREAKING: Psaki: “Since 1978, every U.S. president has had to file annual disclosure reports listing all of their holdings and all the money they made the past year, and I just want to put in perspective for you what these often look like. This, right here was the last financial disclosure report for President Barack Obama. It is 8 PAGES long, thats it, 8 PAGES long, and this BEHEMOTH right here is Donald Trump’s latest financial disclosure report. It is more than 900 PAGES long, and this financial disclosure is almost 700 PAGES longer than the one he filed in 2024, which basically means that the current president has made A WHOLE LOT of money since taking office…The Trump administration claims that this is all above board, totally legitimate, nothing to see here.”🙄

[Emoluments Clause @Emolclause]

#BREAKING: Psaki: “Do you remember last year when Trump announced his massive across the board tariffs…He called it liberation day, it actually led to a stock market crash. That liberation day announcement was made on April 2nd of last year, and Trump’s financial disclosures show that he made 327 stock purchases six days later, on April 8th, while the market was down…So he makes those purchases on April 8th. The next morning, just after the market opened, he told his followers on Truth social: ‘THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY.’ Hours later, he paused his tariffs and the stock market had a historic rally, so historic in fact, it represented the biggest single day gain in the history of the Bloomberg billionaires index. To put it simply, it appears an official act by Trump cratered the stock market. Trump then bought the dip and then used another official act to bring the price of the market back up. Trump of course insists that all his stock transactions are handled by his two adult sons [@EricTrump & @DonaldJTrumpJr] without his involvement or knowledge of the individual trades carried out on his behalf. When asked about the timing of these specific trades, the White House told us tonight that President Trump only acts in the best interests of the American public, saying there was no conflict of interest. The White House also directed us to the Trump Organization. We’ve reached out to them, but we haven’t heard [anything] back.”🤦‍♀️

This is huge! Trump appears to have committed wire fraud in essentially stealing American tax dollars for his "Freedom 250" scam.

These trees were a gift from the Japanese and the oldest in DC

When Nats Park was built, the owners purchased cherry trees specifically bred to bloom early

Planted them in the outfield and cared for them lovingly

Like these trees have been cared for for years and years

They would early in time for Opening Day

When the entire city was covered in pink blooms

Thousands of Americans plan trips to DC to see them

And the monuments

And tour the WH entering through the majestic East Wing

On tours that were managed by the First Lady’s office

Trump doesn’t give a damn about history, heritage, tradition, relationships with foreign allies

If he did, he wouldn’t have unceremoniously torn down the East Wing

Is there ANYONE in DC who will stop this bullshit?

ANYONE
