So let me get this straight.

Jake Tapper is focused on attacking my Mom.

Jared and Ivanka are building a private island paradise on Albanian protected land.

Don Jr married the daughter of Epstein’s banker, and a startup his fund backs just got a record $620M Pentagon loan.

Eric is taking an Israeli drone company public for $1.5B in the middle of a war with Iran that nobody wanted.

And I know: “But what about your paintings, Hunter?”

Please.

@SageKnowsAll She also managed to include a lie about Meghan saying she showed up barefoot to W&K's house.

Barack Obama was targeted 11 times in assassination attempts during his two terms.
We don't remember any of them because they were handled through proper channels, professionally, and he isn't a whiny bitch.

The @TheJusticeDept’s framing of their recent indictment of the Southern Poverty Law Center couldn’t be more dishonest & disingenuous. Let’s break it down.

Yes, there’s an indictment. While that part is real, the narratives they and MAGA “leaders” are pushing all over social media are wildly distorted versions of what the indictment actually alleges, and couldn’t be more dishonest…which is sadly what we’ve come to expect from this administration.

The claim being blasted everywhere is that SPLC “funneled millions to white supremacists,” as if they were secretly funding hate groups out of sympathy or shared ideology. That’s flat-out false framing.

The actual allegation is that SPLC paid confidential informants embedded inside extremist organizations and then allegedly misrepresented or concealed how those payments were structured or disclosed in order . That’s a fraud and transparency argument, NOT ideological support.

Those payments, if proven, were tied to infiltration, intelligence gathering, and monitoring threats. The same exact methods used by law enforcement, counterterrorism agencies, and similar public & private organizations. You don’t penetrate violent extremist networks by sending in volunteers with clean résumés. You use people inside those circles.

The graphic in their post strips all of that context out on purpose. It replaces “paid informants inside extremist groups” with “paid white supremacists,” because it’s “red meat” for the racist, lethally stupid & gullible MAGA base, and they know they won’t question the difference

That’s not an accident, it’s their entire strategy. Always has been with this sort of thing.

Let’s be clear about where this stands- This is an indictment. NOT a conviction. NOT a finding of guilt. Allegations that now have to be proven in court, and will likely crumble like most of these contrived, retaliatory suits of Trump’s do. As sane rational people know, it’s easy to get an indictment against just about anyone, but proving it in court is a very different story.

So what actually exists is a legal dispute over whether SPLC properly handled and disclosed payments tied to covert sources & informants. That’s it.

What’s being sold is a fantasy narrative that an anti-extremism organization was secretly funding the very groups it has spent decades exposing and dismantling.

The gap between reality and what’s being pushed by MAGA isn’t subtle. It’s deliberately and repulsively dishonest, as usual.

Really? Not more aimless swiping at the Sussexes. Surely as a nation we are worth more than this. Thank you Tom Bower for dragging the disappointing British right wing press into the gutter. And pray where were you when all the Andrew revelations came out? #harryandmeghan #camilla #princewillam #tombower

Why does everyone force introverts to leave their comfort zone, but no one forces extroverts to shut up for a while? Why???

Accepted forms of ID to vote under the SAVE Act:

1. Enhanced REAL ID: Only available in 5 states. Costs up to $50 and requires a birth certificate which 40M Americans lack access to.

2. Valid passport: 146M Americans do not have and costs at least $130. Trump gutted the agencies issuing them.

3. U.S. military ID card presented with military record of service.

4. Government-issued photo ID showing place of birth: 300M Americans do not have one, and costs up to $50.

5. Non-Enhanced REAL ID driver’s license, state ID, or tribal ID shown in conjunction with a birth certificate (40M lack access to) that matches your last name (which 69M women do not have due to marriage) and other forms of documentation.

Ironically, the states the SAVE Act hurts the most: West Virginia, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas.

If the SAVE Act was actually a Voter ID bill, then it would propose making the validate forms of ID free and easily accessible, bringing it in line with the 24th Amendment.

Until then, it’s just another Republican voter suppression bill, that makes registering to vote, voting, and ensuring your voting status harder.
