The president tried to argue that the surging cost of oil due to his war in Iran was actually a good thing, while Americans see skyrocketing prices at the pump.
The multi-national oil companies operating in the US make a lot of money. The average American gets screwed. Which pretty much sums up Trump and the Republican Party’s approach to the economy.
Business has been booming for Brad Bondi since his sister, Pam Bondi, was named the Attorney General. Last year Bondi fired anyone that could police her corruption.
The corruption of this whole regime is staggering.
We’re all keeping score.

They’re cutting $1 TRILLION from Medicaid, food stamps, WIC, Meals on Wheels, the VA, and education — to fix “benefit abuse.”
The only abuse we see? $93 billion in ribeyes, crab legs, lobster, & a grand piano. $1 Billion per day for Iran war…
The 2026 National Science Foundation budget is $8.75 Billion.
Looks like there was a security breach in his blanket fort war room. They probably should have upped their security protocol beyond "no girls allowed".
The more I see Trump the more I think Thom is 100 percent correct
"Witkoff’s on-air comments came a day after Trump said that he had a 'positive call' with Putin and that the Russian leader 'wants to be helpful' and 'very constructive.'
The American president didn’t specify for whom Putin wants to be helpful and constructive."
Iran tells the world "get ready for $200 a barrel oil". They are not backing down. Soon trump will not be able to lie himself out of this mess he got us into. Will $200 a barrel oil be enough to wake up his cult?

They’ll fit better once he gets the lifts in.
I used to work for the government. In order to justify budgets, bad actors overspend at the end of the fiscal year. So the administration spent $93B on bullshit to justify massive Pentagon budget proposals, all while gutting health care and food assistance. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

Keep in mind that Pete Hegseth's reported Pentagon spending spree happened just months after Trump and Republicans made devastating cuts to the social safety net in exchange for huge tax cuts for the rich.
And defense spending may soon hit a record $1.5 trillion.
Priorities.
We needed to start a war to avoid a war.

MN Gov. Tim Walz: Former Secretary Noem should probably get used to spending more time in Minnesota because I have a pretty good feeling in the future she may be doing that because we have got to get accountability.
In tonight's speech, the president did what he does best: celebrate himself. But if anyone was looking for leadership focused on easing their current economic pain, he made clear that they'll need to look elsewhere.
Senator Blumenthal: We talk about democracy being under threat or under siege. There’s no better example of it than this whistleblower, Ryan Schwank, talking about how he was told to conceal a memo and not take notes on it, because there was obviously an awareness that America would be outraged.

Trump alludes to his bad polls: "It just amazes me that there is not more support out there. We actually have a silent support."
The exodus of next generation scientists is exacerbated by deep cuts to #NIH training programs meant to support early career scientists.
Last year, half of the US Nobel prize winners in science subjects were immigrants.

The child-in-chief raised tariffs on the world from 10-15 % using a different authority (that lasts just 150 days) because… He’s pouting and wants to feel strong. Regardless of your opinion of Donald, he’s a baby and this is stupid and the history books will judge us. Harshly.
yes but how is minding the store? How or why isn't anyone asking for his impeachment??
Democrats should propose amendments to the SAVE act that require the government to furnish free IDs to all eligible voters before requiring them, automatically register all people to vote, expand mail-in voting, and create a national voting holiday. Then watch republicans block them.
