There’s a movement to draft Barron Trump, but I think a campaign such as this would be more effective if it impacted someone Donald Trump knew personally.

We need a constitutional amendment to impeach senators. You cannot lie to the American people about who you are, change your position completely, and then stay in office for 6 years. This is unacceptable.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

Netflix Backs Out of Bid for Warner Bros., Paving Way for an Ellison Takeover

The richest man owns X.

The second and third richest men control Google.

The fourth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fifth richest man owns The Washington Post.

And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros.

See the problem here?

Enten: "It's the weakest Donald Trump has ever been with independents. Look at this drop! At this point a year ago Donald Trump was at -13. Look at this -- minus 47 points among independents! The lowest Donald Trump has ever been in either of his two terms."

What Brazil got right that America got wrong. Unlike in America, Brazil’s Congress and Supreme Court worked to constrain the president and severely limit his ability to act like an elected dictator.

When I said months ago that I would never work for the Ellisons or their motley crew of editorial incompetents if they got control of CNN and that I would quit immediately, this is why.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

Our priorities are so fucked.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.
