If not for Trump, what's the emoluments clause for? What's impeachment for? What's the 25th Amendment for? What's section 3 of the 14th Amendment for? What are checks and balances for?

The baddies are cherrypicking the Constitution the same way they do the bible: for their own benefit.

Convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein called himself Donald Trump’s “closest friend.” Now, Trump and his DOJ are illegally withholding about half of the Epstein Files. What are they afraid of? Who are they protecting? Oversight Dems will get answers.

CAPABLE journalists never had that excuse. The GOP has spent the last 60+ years devolving into MAGA. John Birchers ➡️ Silent Majority ➡️ Moral Majority ➡️ Tea Party ➡️ MAGA. All iterations of the GOP base have fallen for party manipulation, growing more extreme with each year. The media ignored it.

The basic challenge with discussing Sarah Isgur is that she's just not interesting. She is a Supreme Court fangirl who makes money by praising conservative justices in public. There are lots of conservative lawyers like her, and the next time one of them says anything insightful will be the first.

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.

It was worth it.

“Ready for some bullshit? You paid the the higher prices… They raised prices on you to cover the tariffs, kept prices high, and now they get the refund.

Also: 88 of the largest US corporations paid zero income tax in 2025.”
