Fun fact: the U.S. House can sue a sitting president with a simple majority vote.
If the Democrats retake the chamber, they should do more than just "investigate" Trump's corruption.
They should sue him in federal court for the illegal ballroom, Qatari jet, and more.

Trump running on lower gas prices and no more foreign wars and then starting a war with Iran that literallly everyone except Pete Hegseth knew was going to be a quagmire has to be on the shortlist for dumbest political blunders in American history.

How can they justify leaving right now?
Diesel costs just hit an all-time high. Our nation is at war. The bond market is quivering. The urgency of AI regulation has come to a critical moment.
Congress should be working overtime. Instead Speaker Johnson sent them home. All to dodge one uncomfortable vote - much like his maneuvers last year to hold off the Epstein files.
You don't have to be a Democrat to find that disgraceful.
In less than seven weeks, Americans can change all this. 48 days to go.

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president we've ever had, and it's not even close.

And so here we are. This statement from Trump blows my mind. That a sitting president would not let any renovations to a public building go on unless he gets to first put his name in the said building… What a sad state of affairs. What a tragedy. Actually, how small minded, how narcissistic. Actually
great men, devoted to public service and the public good do not act like this.
It seems that this man will not rest until his name is permanently connected to the name of a great president, whose memory this building was dedicated to. Imagine spending your time and your days focused on this, as everyday Americans struggle with healthcare, gas prices, rent, and food. Imagine spending your days focused on this, while a war rages under your leadership.
Enough said. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

They are LOOTING the country.
Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner has increased his net worth by over 220%, the biggest percentage increase among Forbes' top 400 wealthiest Americans.
His value has increased to $16,700,000,000 since 2025.

Kash thinks the person that fucks the goat is the "victim" of beastiality? MAGA 2 is crazy.
Durbin: "Do you believe those who have previously stolen from employers, solicited sex, or engaged in bestiality are qualified candidates that the FBI is losing?"
Patel: "We did not want to punish victims of bestiality."
Durbin: "You dropped automatic disqualification for applicants who have engaged in bestiality, not victims of bestiality, applicants who have engaged, do you disagree with that?"
Patel: "Applicants who've engaged in bestiality means they were victims of bestiality."

Again, I am aghast there have been almost zero hearings in Congress about how AI threatens national security, privacy, employment. Republicans even tried to preempt states from regulating AI last year.

America is busy having stupid partisan fights on issues that barely matter. Meanwhile we lack competent leadership to tackle the greatest issue of our time - unregulated advancement of super intelligent AI that could do incalculable harm to humanity.

An absolutely disgusting thing to lie about
Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Trump was miles from Ground Zero on 9/11, speaking by phone from his office. He visited the area days later. His story of being lifted from the rubble by firefighters first appeared in 2021 and lacks corroborating evidence. politifact.com/factchecks/202… usatoday.com/story/news/fac… newsweek.com/fact-check-did…

Donald Trump actually thinks a trade deficit means we are “losing money” to another country.
That’s how fucking stupid and economically illiterate he is.

I keep thinking about what Fran Lebowitz said about Trump: “Everyone says he is crazy – which maybe he is – but the scarier thing about him is that he is stupid. You do not know anyone as stupid as Donald Trump. You just don’t.”

Correct, if you are in office to wreck US democracy and make Russia and China flourish. Surprised he left out NK this time.
