Fossil-fuel billionaires’ takeover of the Republican Party means they pull all the strings.

ICE’s investigative arm is now probing Arizona’s elections Arizona's AG said the probe was "based on nothing but conspiracy theories and lies."

🚨BREAKING: As the Trump administration moves to relitigate past elections, the investigative branch of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is probing Arizona’s 2020 election results, Arizona’s attorney general Kris Mayes told Democracy Docket Tuesday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Trump’s message is clear: polluters win; you lose.

Gov. Pritzker presses Congressional leaders to act on refunds for families and businesses harmed by Trump’s tariffs.

Gov. Pritzker presses Congressional leaders to act on refunds for families and businesses harmed by Trump’s tariffs.

Donald Trump owes Illinoisans $8,679,261,600.

That’s $1,700 owed to every household.

I’m demanding Congress end his illegal tariffs, rein in this lawless President, and deliver for working families.

U.S. Dept of Heath & Human Services’ post on Facebook on the left reads: You can’t defend women if you can’t define what a woman is. This week at the UN Commission on the Status of Women, the United States stood alone in support of women and against radical gender ideology. One nation one vote one backbone. America doesn’t outsource values. On the right an article from the Daily Wire’s headline reads U.S. stands alone defending women in gender identity fight at United Nations. A white box above it reads “Defend women? you attack them , silence them, and mock them. Releases the Epstein files.

The ghouls at HHS really thought they were on to something they posted this garbage yesterday on Facebook.

Keep your hands & policy decisions out of women’s health & trans health.

I know it’s difficult given that this admin is full of white men who like to ignore the word “no.”

Trump's submissiveness to Putin is highly suspicious.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Another example of how batshit they are

As controversial decisions mount, FDA shuns public advisory meetings The FDA is cutting back on public advisory committee meetings, even as the public and other stakeholders seek more transparency.

The FDA is convening fewer outside expert advisory panels, even as it makes big and controversial drug decisions.

This means less public debate and oversight. Is this the “radical transparency” RFK Jr. promised? 🔍 👀

Spare me. Bring back the qualified experts. Get rid of the petulant toddlers. 😒

Spring forward... Fall back... whatever.

Can we just pick ONE & stick with it once & for ALL?!!! ⏰

the president has no idea what he has set in motion. none.

Fact: FBI found her credible enough to interview repeatedly, and she received a financial settlement from the Epstein estate.

Followers of der Gehirnverweigererführer who voted for him because of the "no new wars" lie have been suspiciously quiet lately.
