[2/2] A private equity fraudster who ripped off Americans’ retirement savings paid a Trump ally to seek clemency. DOJ prosecutors opened an investigation that has now been abruptly shut down. No relief for 10,000 defrauded investors.

[1/2] “Drain the swamp” was always a vacant slogan—corruption is the actual plan. With Trump, well-connected fraudsters and influence peddlers don’t face consequences—they get presidential protection.

Trump said, ‘I love inflation.’ American families are paying the price. Inflation just jumped to 4.1%, with core inflation at its highest level in 3 years. What he promised would go down on Day 1 has instead kept going up, as Trump focuses on self-glorification projects and enriching himself.
[2/2] While federal judges this week blocked implementation of Trump’s attempts, this wanna-be king will likely continue his efforts to silence voters.
[2/2] In her always insightful comments, Heather Cox Richardson reports on Trump’s latest efforts to interfere with the upcoming election, with Texas already helping him by turning over error-filled voter rolls.
Trump promised to bring down costs for American families on Day One. Instead, his war with Iran did the opposite — adding $132 billion to the bills people are already struggling with: higher gas, higher mortgage rates, higher airfare, higher fertilizer costs.

4 years since the dreadful Supreme Court Dobbs decision turned back the clock 50 years and eroded reproductive freedom and women’s rights. Texans are dying from pregnancy complications and struggling to access basic health care. Restoring abortion rights must be a top priority in a new Congress.
The Kennedy Center's façade is tarped over after a judge ordered to drop Trump's name. The welcome sign has it right, and the JFK statue donated by David Rubenstein, the generous chair, who Trump fired, is still standing.
Another Trump foreign policy decision, another bill sent straight to American households.
Since Trump started his illegal war with Iran on Feb. 28, the average U.S. household has paid an extra $400+ for gas and diesel.
Nationwide, that's $60B+ and counting, per @watsonschoolbrown.bsky.social's live tracker — on top of the Pentagon's own understated $29B price tag.
Another example of colossal waste: $14.7M, no-bid, to a contractor with zero federal experience — to repaint the reflecting pool.
Two weeks later, the paint's already peeling and the algae's back. Taxpayers are paying full price for an unnecessary part-time fix.
[2/2] Enough is enough. Working together, Democrats can eventually reclaim Congress’s authority over tariffs and war to deliver real relief for struggling families.
[1/2] While Trump campaigned on lowering prices, he just said gas prices are “not very high.” Tell that to Americans at the grocery store, where everyday staples are soaring—driven largely by his tariff taxes and unjustified war.
Medicare Advantage insurers offer advantage neither to taxpayers nor insured. taxpayers are charged about $2,660 more per enrollee than Traditional Medicare. New report finds 95% of denials for nursing facility care are overturned on appeal—showing an alarming rate of denials of necessary care.
Juneteenth started here — in Texas, in Galveston, in the communities that turned a long-overdue announcement into a lasting tradition. Today is a celebration of their resilience, but also a reminder that the work towards a more perfect union continues.
Extreme negligence has led to outbreaks of severe illness, mental health crises, and death in ICE detention centers.
Millions of taxpayer dollars have gone to fund rushed construction and inhumane conditions for thousands of detainees.
Up to 2 million MORE Americans may lose access to a physician as Trump continues to sabotage the Affordable Care Act with a death by a thousand cuts strategy.
Higher costs, fewer doctors, less health care. He’s working overtime to turn ObamaCare into Trump NothingCare.
Debbie Hiott has provided outstanding leadership at KUT. UT is diminished when KUT is impaired and a distinguished journalist is dismissed for encouraging the very type of nonpartisan, open discussion to which our universities should be dedicated.
You have an opportunity to voice your opinion on this in November.
Thanks to his Republican supplicants in Congress, Trump has now secured $70 billion in additional funding for ICE and CBP, giving the rogue agencies “unbridled authority to push through [his] mass deportation campaign” while guaranteeing them unprecedented and unchecked power.
