"In late March 2026 a confidential memo from Trump’s pollster, Tony Fabrizio, summarized responses from focus groups...The memo flagged the Epstein issue as 'a real negative with some of these voters.'”

Nancy Mace sold her soul for a paper tiger national profile, a 5th place finish in the SC gubernatorial primary, and a future controversial selection and subsequent early elimination on the next season of Dancing with the Stars.

The 3 books I was reading which are on hold as I read something special for a friend..that comic book work is interesting as hell. The newspaper book is good but topic specific but it has some history. The pivot book is good but economic type drag along..I’m struggling there

A night of anti-immigration violence saw masked men set fire to homes they believed to house immigrants, burned trash bins, and a Belfast bus torched and pelted police with objects.

The chaos erupted after police in Northern Ireland announced they had arrested a Sudanese man on suspicion of attempted murder in a stabbing in Belfast.

Educator, activist, and former Rep. Jamaal Bowman and I discuss the need for rising tide economics. You can watch in full here: https://t.co/TYAMJft6r7

“Trickle-down” economics is a myth. The wealth never trickles down.

Tax cuts for corporations go to stock buybacks, not wages. Tax cuts for billionaires get hoarded, not shared.

Now we have the K-shaped economy. Rich get richer, poor get poorer.

We need rising tide economics.

Big Tech welfare queens are manufacturing an enormous energy demand, and then using that demand to justify endless public subsidies.

For the first time in history, commercial sector power sales will eclipse residential sales.

The US Energy Information Administration confirmed in its latest updates that electricity consumption in the US is projected to reach consecutive record highs in 2026 and 2027 because of AI and data centers.

So on top of all the corporate handouts and tax breaks they get from our national budget, our residential energy bills are going up too. We're being forced to pay more for essential utilities just to cover the costs of their data centers.

Ukrainian forces have disabled the Russian-occupied port of Mariupol, rendering the facility unusable for military logistics, the National Guard’s 1st Azov Corps said on June 10.

A political opponent recently posted a deepfake video of me on social media. It was generated using AI and fabricated my voice and image to put words in my mouth. While it represents a new - and dangerous - low, it was not unpredictable.

It just drives home why we need to act now to give people protections against unauthorized AI replicas of their name and likeness. Let’s start by passing my NO FAKES Act.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

For years, CEOs have sold a story that a $15 minimum wage would kill jobs.

The Washington establishment bought this trickle-down lie, and workers paid the price.

But the evidence debunks that myth.

It's long past time to raise the minimum wage.

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

How many can say this:

New Yorker, February 2026:
$4.05 billion in family take from ventures that exist because he’s president.

Forbes:
his net worth went from $3.9 billion to $7.3 billion by September 2025. Nearly doubled in eight months.

Wall Street Journal:
$4 billion in proceeds and paper wealth from ventures launched since his re-election.

House Oversight Democrats’ wealth tracker:
$5.1 billion in new family money.

Bloomberg:
crypto alone added $1.4 billion in a single year. One-fifth of the family fortune now sits in digital assets that didn’t exist the first time he ran.

All that work is really paying off.

The man running the agency responsible for 340 million Americans' health arrives at 10am, leaves by 4pm, skips his own division chief meetings, and when he does show up - scrolls his phone and gets described by colleagues as "checked out."

Ebola is spreading. Six Americans already exposed. He has not briefed himself with CDC scientists. His response to a reporter asking if he was worried: "Yeah, we're working on it."

The CDC is being run by a health economist with no public health experience who already has another full-time job running NIH. Half of the 27 NIH institutes have no permanent director. The top FDA drug regulator got fired in May - Kennedy found out after it happened.
When measles killed two children in Texas, the CDC official leading the response asked repeatedly to brief Kennedy. He was rebuffed every time.

The person actually running HHS operations is a longtime personal adviser whose policy spreadsheet - more than 50 items - is hidden from the department's own policy team. When Kennedy gets asked a question, his standing answer is "just run that by Stefanie."

This is not a management philosophy. This is a vacancy wearing a title.
