Trump has been allegedly selling pardons for up to $6 million each.

He's looking to issue 250 new pardons using the 250th anniversary as an excuse to potentially take in $1,500,000,000.

The most corrupt president ever — and it's not even close.

Congress is so dysfunctional that multiple members have vanished for months, others continued "legislating" while nearly comatose, several have run while battling illnesses that killed them in office, and now one of Kentucky's Senators may or may not be dead, and nobody knows.

Investment accounts owned by President Trump engaged in more than 300 previously undisclosed stock purchases on April 8, 2025, one day before his surprise announcement that he would pause a number of his tariffs, his financial disclosure report says. https://t.co/WqQb7csmVS

McConnell has been admitted to the hospital for 3 weeks, without any explanation. Another congressman has vanished for months.

Our country deserves not to be a dysfunctional gerontocracy. We need a legally binding health disclosure law & a mandatory retirement age for Congress.

Imagine if Obama was directly connected to Epstein, made $2 billion off crypto scams, grifted a $400 million plane form Arab Royals, and started and lost a war with Iran.

What is the penalty for a president buying 327 stocks the day before he moves the market 9.5% and hiding it for a year?

$200.

Probably nothing.

It's always funny how everyone tried so hard for years to say Trump wasn't a politician like the rest...
Only to prove that he's actually the best at it. Lying, breaking promises and enriching himself at the expense of honest working people while making everyone believe he's fighting for the working class.

[Covie @covie_93]

Can everyone just step back and realize how insane it is that the US Supreme Court had to rule on the constitutionality of the US CONSTITUTION and the vote to uphold the Constitution wasn't unanimous!!!

@d_mckilligan @NickKristof @elonmusk Are you a complete fucking bozo and think no one on the US dies from poverty or lack of medical care?

Let me tell you what just got reported, because you will not believe it until you see it laid out.

The Trump administration cut a billion-dollar tungsten deal with Kazakhstan. Tungsten is the metal we need for missile warheads, fighter jets, and computer chips. Trump himself got on the phone to close it. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick worked it from the inside, sending letters, leaning on the Kazakh president, lining up as much as $1.6 billion in federal financing.

Within weeks of those negotiations, investors tied to a firm partly owned by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump took a 20% stake in an entity connected to the very same Kazakhstan project their father was negotiating. Around that same time, Cantor Fitzgerald, the firm run by Lutnick’s own sons, raised $210 million for a partner in the deal and pocketed the fees.

The fathers set the policy. The sons cashed in.

Six days after the Trump sons and their partners moved their money, Lutnick signed the final deal.

The reporting found one or both families have financial ties to at least 14 companies working with the government on critical mining deals.

The total federal funding flowing toward those companies tops $8.9 billion.

This is your tax money.

It is supposed to secure our supply chains and protect our troops, not pad the portfolios of the President’s children and the Commerce Secretary’s children.

This is the most corrupt administration in American history. It is not close.

We must keep digging, and keep asking the questions they do not want asked. Republicans in Congress are unwilling to lift a finger. Mike Johnson is running a protection racket.

Either we will end the corruption, or the corruption will be the end of us.

@OrevaZSN Social media has amplified stupid voices, and stupid voices like hearing other stupid voices talk.

@CoffeeBlackMD Yeah these people are so fucking stupid. I would *love* to never see most of my patients again because they are fixed. There is a never ending list of new people

[ntendo @tendulkar_19]

@Angry_Staffer They’re really fucking stupid

[Tahra Hoops @TahraHoops]

I do not know how much more clear he can make it to everyone. He does not care about the high cost of housing, or any attempts to fix it. The financial concerns of Americans are not his priority.

@theblanketdog @rooosewelt_ if you make the patient do 20 stress tests in a row, a true positive is inevitable

[Blanket Dog @theblanketdog]

Tech bros aren't understanding the limitations of the technology they're actually proposing.

The current proposition is that , by using a screening ultrasound technology, we can detect tumors before they cause morbidity or mortality. The hope is that AI can discern benign versus malignant without an invasive test at some point.

What they don't realize is that we have used NMR for years in brain tumors and it's minimally helpful. We literally look at the tumor down to their hydrogen atoms and can't figure out details about tumor biology, but you Dunning-Krugerettes think that ultrasound is going to be the answer?

As I've said before... The only problem I have with outsiders trying to revolutionize medicine is that every single time this happens, they fail and it just makes my job harder and more miserable.

South Korea famously experienced a "thyroid cancer epidemic" in the early 2000s, driven almost entirely by the widespread availability of high-resolution ultrasound screenings.

While this detected early-stage, small cancers, it did not decrease overall thyroid mortality rates.

Because of this, leading Korean medical societies have generally discouraged universal, population-wide thyroid ultrasound screenings for asymptomatic individuals unless they have specific risk factors.

Because thyroid cancer mortality rates remained entirely unchanged, experts concluded that tens of thousands of people underwent major surgery for tumors that would never have harmed them.

Lot of people had a lot of biopsies, a lot of surgeries, suffered a lot of complications and got put on a lot of medication to get the above data.

The tech bros want data? Here, an entire country used a new ultrasound technology to screen their population for disease that was previously undetectable and tracked the results. It worked out badly for the patients.
