$2.7 billion to kill wind power. $1.125 billion to prop up coal.

That’s $3.8 billion of your tax dollars Trump has spent this year alone, not to lower your energy bill, but to make sure the cheapest electricity in America never reaches the grid.

Yes, you heard that right. The President of the United States is literally spending your tax dollars to make your energy bills more expensive.

You’re paying for this twice: once when the government spends your tax dollars to block the cheapest energy available, and again on your electric bill when utilities have no choice but to keep running expensive coal instead.

The abuse the ex wife of the Maine ICE agent details in NPR interview is horrifying, including a 2022 police report of throwing his 13 year old daughter through a coffee table, a voice mail from last year saying her throat should be cut, and pulling a gun on her in the shower. She questions if ICE runs even a basic background check on recruits.

New reporting reveals the Trump administration moved original copies of the Emancipation Proclamation and 13th Amendment into defective storage cases, exposing the rare documents to harsh light and heat.

Donald Trump and RFK Jr. fired CDC staff who monitor food borne illnesses, like cyclospora, last year in the name of “government efficiency” only to cost us tens of millions in fresh produce recalls and $464.60 PER CASE of cyclosporiasis. You can’t make this shit up (literally)

The Republican president had to pay a woman 5 million because he sexually assaulted her. This is where the GOP is today.

It doesn’t matter if the man killed by ICE in Maine was authorized to work in the United States or not. It doesn’t matter if he had a social security or not. ICE should not be killing anyone. Period.

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

The reason ICE was able to shoot and kill another unarmed person in broad daylight was because the last two times they shot innocent unarmed people this country did nothing about it...and didn't even properly investigate it.

Outrage is good.
But without action it's NOTHING.

Protestors in Maine are now surrounding Susan Collins’ office after ICE murdered a 26-year-old Colombian man who was authorized to work in the US and had a social security number. Collins voted to give ICE $70 billion.

[Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸 @jimstewartson]

These ICE thugs shot this man in his car, dragged him out like a side of beef, handcuffed him, and started searching his pockets while he bled out.

Not a single sign of humanity. Not a single concern for the life they just took.

These are death squads.

[Jesus Freakin Congress @TheJFreakinC]

🚨BREAKING UPDATE OUT OF MAINE: The man killed in the Biddeford, Maine ICE shooting has been identified as a 26-year-old Colombian man who was authorized to work in the United States and had been issued a Social Security number.

This wasn’t a “violent criminal.” This wasn’t even an undocumented immigrant.

This was someone who had legal authorization to live and work here.

So why was ICE trying to pull him over?

A witness also says he saw a large white vehicle ram the smaller vehicle, followed by a second impact… And heard gunshots.

He says he then saw an officer open the vehicle door, pull a man out with blood covering his head, and heard him say: “I tried to stop.”

ICE agents do not have the authority to stop whoever they want, give conflicting orders, escalate an encounter, and then use deadly force when that situation becomes chaotic.

If the government gives agents the power to carry weapons and take someone’s life, those agents have a responsibility to make sure they are acting within the law before they create a situation where someone can be killed.

A person’s rights do not disappear because an ICE agent decides to stop them.

Which means the question that must be answer is this…

Was this man killed because ICE created a dangerous situation that never should have happened?

Because when the government can put someone in a life-or-death situation, the question cannot only be whether the final seconds justified pulling the trigger.

We have to ask why this encounter was allowed to escalate in the first place.

Lonzo Ball speaks on the divorce of his parents LaVar and Tina Ball 😳

"my mom didn't want to leave, she was quote on quote forced to leave. I helped her leave, I'm glad she left she's in a great spot.. they obviously don't f*ck with each other"

"she was not wrong at all, she did not leave him because of his foot"

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

The irony of Republicans controlling all branches of government while

bankrupting the country, starting a war, sending money to fraudulent programs, violating the Constitution, giving corporations immunity...

but arguing that the biggest problem we have is “stolen elections.”

When the illusion finally shatters, what remains isn't disappointment,it's humiliation.

The man you poured your faith into was never a visionary, never a savior, never even remotely exceptional.
He was a hollow fraud wrapped in ego, fueled by noise, and sustained by endless self-promotion.

Every boast, every grand promise, every display of swagger crumbles the instant reality enters the room.
What looked like confidence was arrogance.
What looked like strength was insecurity.
What looked like leadership was little more than a carefully marketed illusion.

Scratch beneath the surface and there's no hidden brilliance, no master strategist, no misunderstood genius. Just an impulsive, self-absorbed figure stumbling from one failure to the next, desperately trying to drown incompetence in a torrent of bluster and spectacle.

In the end, the strongman image collapses into exactly what it always was: cheap theater.
A gaudy performance.
A caricature masquerading as leadership.
A salesman peddling an image he could never live up to.

And the hardest part isn't watching the act fall apart.
It's realizing how long you applauded it, defended it, and mistook obvious bullshit for substance.....

Trump is the first leader in history to “defeat” a country 60 times, then be forced to pay them $300 BILLION
