Dear Latino & Hispanic voters,

The Republican Party believes that masked federal thugs lawlessly roaming our streets, racially profiling brown & black people, and terrorizing immigrants & citizens is just a β€œlittle hiccup.” I thought you should know.

Best,

A Former Republican

The Trump administration has repeatedly adopted a hard line toward elite universities, which it regards as opposed to its ideology and as hot spots of discrimination.

The Trump administration has repeatedly adopted a hard line toward elite universities, which it regards as opposed to its ideology and as hot spots of discrimination.

Nearly every article about the Trump administration's supposed concern with antisemitism at universities winds up revealing that they are engaged in an ideological war on higher education and are using authoritarian methods to fight it.

Iran’s Cheap, Plentiful Weaponry Puts US Military Under Unprecedented Strain As the conflict extends towards a third week, an arsenal of attack drones and ballistic missiles has helped make Tehran unlike any adversary the US has faced.

The US has burned through over 1,000 Patriot interceptors ($4 million each) to stop an onslaught of Iranian drones ($20k to $50k each).

The problem with this β€œsacrifice for our freedom” language is that the Trump administration cannot articulate a single half-plausible reason it did this, didn’t bother to explain to the public it was starting a war in the first place, and has changed its explanation for why three times in a week.

Helluva way to run a war, as the NYT reports. But the article doesn’t go far enough. WHY are his aides terrified of telling Trump the truth? Because the commander-in-chief is not OK in the head, that’s why. These reporters should say it instead of covering it up. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/u...

X MYTH
Repealing gas taxes lowers prices.

V FACT
Gas tax holidays often become windfalls for oil companies, not savings for drivers.
As seen in Florida, where companies pocketed much of the benefit.

This race isn’t over.

Northwest Georgia showed up in a BIG way, and now we head to a runoff.

Momentum is real. The coalition is growing.

Let’s finish what we started.

On to the runoff. #GA14

No imminent threat

No congressional approval

No international alliance

No clear strategic objectives

No foreseeable endgame

No actionable intelligence

Just a hunch from the president's son in-la

Is this really how the world's superpower now conducts its foreign policy?

Trump launched military strikes on Iran with no plan for the fallout, and Americans are paying on average $0.56 per gallon more at the pump.

Here are the facts Trump hopes you never see:

Fmr Trump spokesman: "Let's be consistent."

BTC: "I am being consistent-- that's the problem. I watched Trump on the campaign trail disparage all these other politicians who engaged in wars in the Middle East. And yet here we are. We have dead Americans, rising oil prices, and a war with no plan."

NEW: We just published a deep dive into just how much billionaires are now dominating U.S. politics.

We found 300 billionaire families accounted for 19% of federal donations in 2024. The deluge was even larger in many state and local races.
