The U.S. war on Iran is now estimated to cost $1 billion per day. Meanwhile Americans are told there’s no money for healthcare, hospitals, or basic social programs.

A judge just found that corporations are "entitled" to a refund for the Trump tariffs the Supreme Court overturned.

Really? The companies that passed their tariff costs onto us are "entitled" to compensation?

We are being stolen from.

Tax the rich. Tax corporations.

Hollow Promises in Ohio’s Silicon Heartland As tech companies gain more ground, residents pay the price for the state’s data center boom.

In Ohio’s β€œSilicon Heartland,” tech companies enjoy lax regulation and tax exemptions while communities see increasingly unaffordable energy prices and environmental harms. buff.ly/jp0dMsb

Sen. Murphy: They told us in there that this is an open-ended operation that hasn't even really started... they refuse to take off of the table the insertion of ground troops ... there is no question that this is war. #TrumpsWarOnOurEconomy

I am back in D.C. to hear from cruel Kristi Noem on why she is complicit in the chaos happening at DHS, vote on a War Powers Resolution to rein Donald Trump in, and vote against a DHS funding bill that does nothing to address the reckless actions we’re seeing from ICE.

The work continues.

It’s looking increasingly likely that Kristi Noem and Lewandowski funneled almost 200 million in government money to a company that is run by her friend and that nobody can give an address for.

Oh, and it was 8 days old when it was awarded the contract.

McGovern: How the hell is this America first? You guys broke your top campaign promise. Good luck with that. I hope the defense contractor money was worth it. Shame on you all. The mask is off. You're all just a bunch of pathetic Neocon Warmongers.

Raskin tears Kristi Noem a new one: "Apparently when your blankie was left on one of the govt jets and not transported to the new one, your special govt employee, Corey Lewandowski, chivalrously stepped forward to fight the pilot -- mid air!"

Rep. Massie on Iran:

"The Ayatollah was not a president. He was a religious leader… The U.S. and Israel turned him into a martyr.

6 American families must now lay to rest their sons and daughters.

And for what?"

Basically, what the Department of Justice argued in court today was that RFK Jr. has the absolute authority to kill millions of people with impunity.

I do not exaggerate.

Objection: What Happened in Dallas County Was Not a Glitch What happened in Dallas County tonight should scare the hell out of you.

What just happened in Dallas County is one of the most blatant voter suppression operations I've ever seenβ€”and it happened in a *primary*.

In March. Imagine November.

I broke it down here:

Sen. Murphy: β€œThere will be more Americans killed…They have contempt for the American people because they think that they can carry out the biggest war in the Middle East since Iraq and Afghanistan without a single vote.”

we appear to have four competing fascist movements jockeying for control: blood & soil nazism under miller and hegseth, darwinian ecofascism from rfk, technofascism under vance and musk, and one Big Wet Hitler who understands the true animating core of the american volk is a deep love for shopping

Republicans are desperate. The war in Iran is his excuse to remain in power and they are plotting to stay in power at all costs.

Every time the establishment tries to elevate a Trump toady like Marco Rubio as their lifeline to sanity, he runs off and does something like campaign for Orban or lie repeatedly about the Iran War justification. NOBODY who surrenders to Trump is normal. When will they learn?

"We're gotta waste millions of dollars killing folks in a useless war because Jesus is powerless to just come back himself and start Armageddon if we don't. He needs our help, y'all! Glory!"

Bernie Sander’s 2028 litmus test would strangle America’s golden goose

Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why?

If enacted, Bezos would owe $12 billion in taxes, and an average family of 4 would receive a $12,000 direct payment.

Poor Jeff would be left with just $224 billion to survive.

Just bc NYT isn't blatantly Right Wing--like Fox-- doesn't mean it isn't overall RWng--w some truth oriented reporting & some liberal columns thrown in for a smoke screen.
Fox's style wdn't work w NYT lib audience. So they do "both sides" reporting, are harsh to Dems only, & sane wash/excuse T/GOP.

Never forget this: Trump sent our sons and daughters to war, from the comfy confines of his country club. He didn't even have the decency to wear a suit and tie, or take off his golf hat. He probably went directly back to the course to finish the back nine..

DOJ lawyers misspelled β€œUnited States” in their case against Kilmar Abrego Garcia, listed AG Letitia James’s address as β€œBrooklyn, New Jersey," and just last week, sued NJ Gov. Mikie Sherrill, but misspelled her name.
