Documents Reveal a Web of Financial Ties Between Trump Officials and the Industries They Help Regulate ProPublica is releasing a trove of disclosure records that detail the finances of more than 1,500 Trump appointees, including former lobbyists, industry executives and at least a dozen officials who d...

This story cannot keep flying under the radar.

A ProPublica investigation uncovered hundreds of millions of dollars in financial ties between Trump officials and the industries they are supposed to regulate.

That is not just a conflict of interest. It is corruption, plain and simple.

This War With Iran Will Cost More Than We Can Afford Iraq cost us $6 trillion. Even a short Iran war could add $1 trillion to a budget deficit that Trump may already be tripling.

The war in Iran has cost you $6 trillion so far & raised oil prices. They, also, picked a new leader without Trump. Could another 9/11 be far behind?
Trump is not a leader. He’s barely human. newrepublic.com/article/2075...

Who would have guessed that the legal system in America was so fragile that a single crazy president could ignore the whole thing, from the Constitution right down to state laws?
Why does the Supreme Court and Congress let this demented moron act like the dictator of a banana republic?

No war on Iran. Not in our name.

The Constitution is clear: Congress β€” not the president β€” has the power to declare war. If this administration wants to drag our country into another catastrophic conflict in the Middle East, they must face the American people and get authorization through a War Powers Resolution.

We’ve seen what endless war brings:
β€’ lives lost
β€’ communities destroyed
β€’ billions wasted while our own people struggle at home

Memphians are standing up and demanding accountability.

New report highlights legal loopholes that permit child marriage in 34 US states Read Equality Now’s new report highlighting legal loopholes that allow child marriage in the US and key actions needed to protect girls’ rights.

🚨Child marriage laws legitimize what should be recognized as child sexual abuse.
🚨Legal loopholes turn cases that would otherwise be prosecuted as statutory rape into legally sanctioned marriages
🚨Every state must close all legal loopholes that enable child marriage.

ICYMI: Republicans BLOCKED my bill to fund TSA.

Republicans are punishing travelers and forcing TSA agents to work without pay because they want to cut another blank check for ICE & Border Patrol.

It's shameful.

The Florsheim shoes are this term's double-scoop of ice cream. They seem like something trivial but actually are an important detail of the authoritarian imbecile that Trump is.

Sean Dougherty is a longtime activist and community organizer running to hold Panetta accountable. He rejects corporate PAC and Israel lobby funding entirely, calls Israel's actions in Gaza a genocide, and demands an immediate arms embargo.

This press conference gave me chills. And not the good kind.

It’s not the Save America Act, it’s the Stop Americans Voting Act.

QUESTION: What the hell does β€œno men in women’s sports” have to do with voting?

ANSWER: Absolutely nothing. Republicans are trying to force Dems into bad optics.

Listen to what Jessica Craven has to say. This regime doesn’t care about the victims and they never have. If you didn't believe that before, this may be the proof you need.
