One of the most astounding things about the Trump administration is that the primary qualification for any position is that you must be totally unqualified for that position.

Five Trump Scandals You’ve Probably Missed Swirling scandals—from the Pentagon to DHS to the IRS to the Labor Department—that represent basic betrayals of public office, trust, and confidence-in-leadership that should be the table stakes of go...

Washington can only pay attention to a scandal or two at a time, which means in the Trump age there are all sorts of should-be-big-deal scandals that don’t get the oxygen or media focus that they should.

I'll bet you've missed at least three of these: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/five-trump...

It’s important to remember that the goal of lawsuits like the one brought by Kash Patel against the Atlantic isn’t to win, it’s to cost the Atlantic as much money as possible only to drop the suit before discovery, and as red meat for the MAGA base by simply filing it.

The Atlantic, and every defendant to any of the Trump Administration’s weaponized groundless lawsuits like this, needs to immediately follow up with motions for sanctions and claims of malicious prosecution when the original claim eventually is dismissed or withdrawn.

Not a single qualified, or even rational, individual on the list.

This from trade guru Richard Baldwin on Trump's trade war conduct is great. And helps explain why in fact he is not remaking the world economic order or anything else. He's just going to leave a huge mess behind. www.linkedin.com/pulse/trumps...

Seriously if you're a reporter and have a chance to interview this man, ask him if he thinks his father -- an outspoken ally of MLK Sr who helped ease desegregation in Atlanta -- would be proud of him sidling up to a white nationalist.

He might as well answer in Russian.

Trump’s Sycophants Just Approved the Tackiest Monument to Him Yet The Arc de Trump isn’t about America. It’s about one man. It must die.

“The next president must say on day one: We’re tearing down this arch; we’re razing Trump’s ballroom…Washington ceremonial architecture must be returned to the purpose for which it exists—to promote democracy, not the demented, bruised ego of one sick man.”

Exactly. Any candidate suggesting “just moving forward to let the nation heal” or similar concept of letting these scoundrels off the hook needs to step aside. Did we learn nothing from the Confederacy and Nixon?

Does Exxon realize they are not legally required to price gouge consumers?

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.

Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.

This is what corporate greed looks like.

A jury has ruled that Live Nation-Ticketmaster is an illegal monopoly.

A judge will determine whether or not to break the company up, in addition to other damages.

This is a big deal.

Remember that the Trump admin tried to settle the lawsuit with a slap on the wrist — but state AGs said no way.

Every child, in every zip code, deserves a fair shot at a good education.

That's why I’m introducing legislation to repeal federal vouchers and keep public funds in public schools — so schools have the resources they need to do right by our kids.

Not if nobody ever actually holds him accountable.

People willing calling people by their chosen names of Clavicular or Sneako but complain about trans people pronouns. Get fucked

Alligator Alcatraz phones were cut off. Then the beatings began, court docs say Attorneys say the Trump and DeSantis administrations are disregarding a court order requiring access to phones and attorneys for detainees.

The Constitution and a court order both say that the Everglades detention facility must allow people access to their attorneys.

Instead of complying, guards are cutting off people’s phone access and beating people who speak up.

I suspect the Pope sounds "woke" to many Christian conservatives because the US is steeped in prosperity theology, where the point of worship is to deliver health and wealth to believers. Thus, "feed the hungry" and "show mercy for the poor" sounds needlessly political and "woke."

Surcharges Are Suddenly Everywhere—And Grumpy Americans Are Paying Up The add-ons were a feature during Covid and are once again sneaking their way onto bills.

The Wall Street Journal writes an entire article on the subject of predatory corporate fees without mentioning (even once) that Trump and his courts have lobotomized consumer protection and regulatory autonomy

weird artifice that pretends the government still works

You know what would also help her afford her husband's cancer treatments? UNIVERSAL FUCKING HEALTH CARE JESUS FUCKING CHRIST HOW IS THIS GODDAMN COUNTRY STILL LIKE THIS MAYBE GRANDMA SHOULDN"T HAVE TO DELIVER FOOD LIKE A TEENAGER IF WE HAD A DECENT FUCKING SOCIETY!!!!!!!!!!

Do you mean Mike “I Haven’t Seen That Post” Johnson?

Trump could not be even more repulsive.

Trump: watch this
