Trump Family’s Cash Registers Ring as Financial Meltdown Plays Out The party was on at a Saudi-backed LIV Golf tournament at the president’s Doral resort in Florida and a fund-raiser at Mar-a-Lago, even as markets tumbled.

It’s the corruption. And the destruction of the 1st Amendment. And the eradication of due process rights. And … is this the point when we get wistful for the first term when it was only about corruption?

A Chinese national, charged with fraud by the SEC, just sent Donald Trump $18 million Chinese Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun paid $6.2 million for a banana — sold by Sotheby's as conceptual art — and then ate it last Friday.

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story

The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post

Rep. Mace introduces measure to ban trans women from Capitol’s female bathrooms The South Carolina Republican’s resolution comes two weeks after the historic election of Democrat Sarah McBride, a trans woman, to Congress.

Carol Moseley Braun was the first Black woman elected to the Senate in 1993. Jesse Helms once followed her into the Senate elevator singing "Dixie." He told fellow Senator Orrin Hatch, "I'm going to sing Dixie until she cries."
