Trump and his cronies defied a court order to cut down 430 historic trees on the public golf course in DC. All so he can have a course to his liking. He thinks he owns the federal government. He doesn’t! Why wasn’t he stopped?

I cannot believe Trump is offering $5000 to every voter if the GOP wins the election! OPEN BRIBERY!! I mean this is the craziest thing he’s ever done. But it will never happen. He has offered money before (tariff and DOGE) that was never paid out.

In light of the current administrations attempt to suppress news media outlets, I’m reminded of this quote by our third president of the United States. "Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost.” — Thomas Jefferson

Trump made a crazy speech last night, saying if the GOP retains Congress, he will send every American adult citizen $5,000. He has no power to do this without legislation, and it would cost well north of a trillion dollars.

In the 1980s when climate scientists started warning us about the dangers of climate change, my Foundation began to fund education efforts to promote solutions highlighting renewable energy policies. Great strides have been made but too many governments continue to rely and promote fossil fuels.

She is well known for having been a founder of Ms. magazine, her journalism and speeches. But she also worked hard to elect women and pro-choice candidates across the nation. Her voice and vision will be sorely missed in these troubled times.

In 1986, I endowed a chair at the Environmental Defense Fund for Dr Michael Oppenheimer to focus on the dangers of climate change. He along with other climate scientists and Al Gore warned the world was short on time to address its worst impacts.

The constitutionality of Trump interfering with state’s rights to determine the conduct of elections has yet to be decided, but today’s horrific decision by the Supreme Court on mail in voting is another dark day in this Republican Court’s partisan history. This Trump Court is the enemy of democracy

After destroying the Eastwing of the White House, Trump after two losses in lower courts has now appealed his case to build his bloated ballroom to the Supreme Court. The plans dwarf the Whitehouse and reflects his gaudy style not the classic building.

Originally Trump said it would all be paid for by private donations but no surprise this was not true. While many Americans struggle with rising costs, this ballroom and bunker is now projected to cost a billion dollars.

Donald Trump doesn’t believe in the constitutional separation of power. He declared war on Iran one night and killed the senior Iranian leadership. Now months later, we are stuck in a quagmire with the Strait of Hormuz closed to most traffic.

Dr. Anthony Fauci has been subjected to a disgraceful witch hunt by Senate Republicans. Dr Fauci is an American hero. He was instrumental during the AIDS crisis to stop disinformation and pushed to discover the vaccine to allow AIDS patients to live with the virus.

Amid the horrors of the Covid pandemic which killed one million Americans, Dr Fauci was a voice of reason and helped speed the development of the vaccine to prevent hospitalization. The GOP is attempting to rewrite the history of the pandemic.

Why is the American government having to upgrade a personal gift that was given to Trump from Qatar? The American government has Air Force 1 . This was given to Trump for his own use after his term, he should pay for the changes.

Last night Donald Trump released documents accusing China of trying and failing to interfere in the 2020 election. But the documents show that Russia, like in 2016, was actively promoting his candidacy in 2020.

Donald Trump will never recover from losing the 2020 election and will lie about it forever. His supporters attempted a coup to try and overturn the results. He doesn’t care about how high prices are hurting Americans, only his perpetual grievances. So sad.

Watching the members of Trump’s Cabinet perform is like a comedy. But it’s not funny. In the middle of this stupid war, Secretary Hegseth announces mandatory testosterone screening for all troops. Seriously?

The world is seeing record heat and wildfires this summer. Donald Trump and his lackeys are owned by the fossil fuel industry. Do they not see what is happening right in front of their eyes with our climate? Or are they paid to ignore it?

Trump never wants to pay people what they are supposed to get.. He doesn’t like to pay his bills… He has made so much money from the government and does not pay people what they are supposed to be paid.

Qatari Government gave Trump/DOD a 747 valued at $400m and the American Taxpayers paid to refurbish it. It still cannot be used as Air Force One and then is transferred to the Trump Library after he leaves office. This is an outrageous use of our money. Trump’s greed knows no limit and we all pay

The White House, its surrounding grounds, the Monuments and Ellipse were designed by brilliant architects. Trump has managed to ruin them all. He should use some of the 4 billion he has made since 2025 to restore them.
