How did Trump and Giuliani forge their friendship in the late 1980s? Trump was being investigated for organized crime. He offered Giuliani's campaign two million dollars and then the case against him was dropped. From the late great Wayne Barrett: nydailynews.com/opinion/wayne-…

A reminder that our founders constructed our institutions explicitly to serve a wealthy minority at the expense of the masses.

Our institutions are working the way they’re supposed to. And that’s the problem. What we need is change.

I’d like to know when there will be arrests for members of the Secret Service who took part in erasing all of their texts from Jan 6 in an effort to cover up. That can’t be forgotten.

58 years ago today, Medicare and Medicaid were signed into law — ensuring that millions of our seniors and most vulnerable members of society get the care they need.

Since then, Democrats have proudly defended these pillars of health care and justice for all.

Dear Justice Alito: You’re on the Supreme Court in part because Congress expanded the Court to 9 Justices. Congress can impeach Justices and can in many cases strip the Court of jurisdiction. Congress has always regulated you and will continue to do so. You are not above the law.

Donald Trump is a wannabe mob boss turned into an actual mob boss, turning a network of Republicans into his mafia. Fraud, theft, and violence is his legacy.

The evidence in the original federal indictment against Trump was already strong, but the new charges reveal even more.

There are witnesses, surveillance footage, text messages and meetings focused on the plot to obstruct the investigation.

They all show such powerful…

Biden Boom:

GDP is up way beyond expectations.
13,000,000 new jobs.
Wages up.
Stock market up.
401K’s back on the rise.
Consumer confidence up.
Inflation lowering.
Unemployment at lowest in 54 years.
800,000 new manufacturing jobs.
Record infrastructure investment.
Record Green…

I’m rereading the superseding indictment, and details that have been there since the start are still gobsmacking. Among them? That between Jan. 2021 and Aug. 2022, when the FBI conducted its court-authorized search of Mar a Lago, MAL hosted 150 social events. 1/

Remember when the experts said that to get inflation under control we needed to lower wages, and drive up unemployment?

I never bought that.

Instead, I focused on getting more Americans into the workforce, fixing our broken supply chains, and lowering costs.

And it's working.

The man who spent years accusing Hillary of ‘acid washing’ her emails and hammering her servers is charged with trying to erase security camera footage of his alleged crimes.

It’s all projection, all the time.
Every accusation is a confession.

I know there is a lot going on, but Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, was directly involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Just thought I should remind everyone of that.

We're really having a public debate about whether slavery was good for enslaved people.

That's how deep our political life has descended into overt white supremacy.

You can’t make this stuff up: billionaire GOP megadonor Harlan Crow reduced his tax bill by claiming his yacht company was a profit-seeking business.

But this was the same yacht he used for personal trips with Clarence Thomas.

The level of corruption is absolutely staggering.

📌No way Ron DeSantis defending slavery is getting the attention in the press it deserves.
It is absolutely abominable and revolting.

All the people marking themselves safe from being offended by a Jason Aldean song were awfully offended by Bud Light and Target and Disney and Barbie and…

It’s not often that Kevin McCarthy is correct, but today he is. If U.S. Department of Justice can prosecute Donald Trump for illegally retaining and sharing classified docs, they can do the same to any American. Because you are not above the law, and neither is Donald Trump.

Imagine if House Dems had used an official Congressional hearing between 2018 and 2020 to show nude images of the the president’s daughter Ivanka. Trump and the GOP would have (rightly) lost their minds. huffpost.com/entry/marjorie…

Why don’t people ask why in the world does the Senate continue to operate under rules that give each and every US Senator so much unilateral power to fu-k up the entire nation?????????
