"Patel didn’t file this to win. He filed it to show Trump he’s not just a dilettante flying around on the FBI jet, but a loyal crony fighting back against the fake news ... come on, dude, we’ve all seen your little beer party with the hockey team. A sober, serious public servant you are not."
Feel like it should be a bigger story that Howard Lutnick's firm (run by his kids) created a financial product to buy up tariff refund claims at a major discount, and will now be cashing in on the higher costs passed onto consumers.
Devin Stone turned punchy legal explainers into a YouTube empire. Now he’s warning that the sheer volume of Trump administration scandals is distorting reality itself. www.wired.com/story/the-bi...
Josh Rogin: “Somebody shorted the oil market today by hundreds of millions of dollars exactly 20 minutes before Trump made his announcement—
If you see that once, it could be a coincidence. But that's happened at least three times, if not more, since the war began — that's a pattern”

MAGA increasingly believes Trump
@$$assination attempt was fake. Trump’s base seems to be turning against him like never before: @thenewrepublic.bsky.social
It will never stop pissing me off how much trump is going to walk away from this presidency as a “real” billionaire in a way he never was before, and it is going to be solely because of the public office
We should be learning from other countries...
Clarence Thomas ruled in favor of Citizens United.
Harlan Crow's political contributions then went up 862%.
Then we later find out Thomas let Crow take him on lavish trips, buy his mom's house, and help fund his wife's conservative nonprofit.
But go on about how "progressivism" is a problem...
The sad reality is that we can’t believe anything the president tells us about the most serious issues facing both the country and the world because he’s a congenital liar.
This isn't being talked about enough:
President Trump is hosting a gala at Mar-a-Lago next week for the top 297 holders of his $TRUMP memecoin.
Not only is this blatantly corrupt, it's a national security threat.
It's reverse Robin Hood.
Came here to ask the same question.
For decades, birthday party clowns folded balloons and played games. John Wayne Gacy is taking a different approach.
Right before the markets open for the week. Like clockwork.
Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal.
Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November.
It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).
For everyone now trying to back away from Trump by claiming he’s changed…
Just a reminder that for all their big talk, DOJ is 0-4 in lawsuits to obtain state voter files. My law firm is 4-0.😎 www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Reagan’s OMB Director:
BREAKING: @democracydefendersfund.org is demanding a CFTC investigation into anonymous traders who netted millions on suspiciously timed bets on US military actions—Iran ceasefire, Venezuela invasion & more
Alleged insider trading on war plans IS a national security threat
CFTC must act now - TN
It is a felony to steal and sell anyone’s Social Security data, even if they’re dead.
DOGE stole 500 MILLION Americans’ private data.
That’s 500 MILLION felonies.
teleSUR April 10, 2026 Mexico to Have Universal Access to Health Services By 2027 President Claudia Sheinbaum visits a hospital.
A concept so baffling that only every other civilized country has figured it out.
End Citizens United. Save the country from billionaires.
One of the most brazenly corrupt events in history will take place tomorrow when Jared Kushner represents the U.S. in critical negotiations with Iran to end the war while he accepts millions in fees (and billions in investments) from the Saudi gov’t which has been lobbying Trump to continue the war
Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:
Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%
Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%
This is what a rigged system looks like.
Wow, great news: the CDC has a study proving COVID vaccines slashed hospitalizations by 55%. Bad news: RFK Jr.’s team killed it before publication because facts were inconvenient. They are literally hiding data that could save your life.
