An ethics complaint was filed against CD3 candidate Tim Gaspar. The allegations provide damning evidence that he may have run afoul of the California Political Reform Act and the LA Campaign Finance Ordinance. The LA City Ethics Commission should open an investigation immediately.

Just crazy reporting by NYT—Kushner and Witkoff making a secret deal with a sanctioned Russian company to control a huge gas project in the US. Good for this guy for getting the heck out and talking to the Times

DON’T BE AFRAID, BE PREPARED. AG Todd Blanche was asked a simple question: Will the DOJ try to block states from certifying election results? He couldn’t give a simple NO. Instead, he left the door open to hypothetical scenarios. @marcelias.bsky.social

The orange felon’s trashy unqualified special envoy Steve Witkoff openly praised murderous Dictator Putin and went as far as to call him a “humanitarian.” There’s no excusing it, the MAGA regime are continuously committing treason against the United States and they all need to be in prison.

As the Trump regime sues LA officials for not disqualifying 20,000 people DHS has labeled as non-citizens based upon their screening tool, it is good to remember that DHS used to same tool to identify over 15,000 non-citizen voters in Nevada. Complete checks revealed that ALL of them are citizens.

IRS refuses to publish report. Ahead of the midterm elections, the Trump regime is withholding detailed information that illustrates how King Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act hurt millions of Americans. The data from the IRS was originally scheduled to be released in July & updated in September.

Inside an ICE facility, women talked about the men whose 911 calls landed them there — the boyfriends or husbands who had beat them, choked them, threatened deportation. “I had suffered from domestic violence,” one woman said. “But the one who ended up in trouble was me.”

“There’s just a lot of frustration.” For a decade, farmers and ranchers have been a core part of President Trump’s coalition. But as the impact of his tariffs and the war in Iran fuel discontent in agricultural communities, economic anxieties are testing the loyalty of rural voters to the GOP.

Apparently at around 1:30 PM ET, the main accounts for the No Kings coalition on Instagram were frozen and pulled down. Admins have lost access to the account and are unable to log in. This happened at the peak of the organization's national day of action. Instagram, of course, is owned by Meta.

WSJ is reporting that the Trump regime is investigating Rep. Ilhan Omar to build a case to strip her of US citizenship, forcibly remove her from office, & deport her. Please understand how dangerous and catastrophic this is. It’s already fascism that he’s trying to do this. 1/2
