Rand Paul: "Somebody has to stand up and yell, 'the emperor has no clothes.' Everybody is falling in lockstep on this -- 'Pass the big beautiful bill. Don't question anything.' Well, conservatives do need to stand up and have their voices heard ... if we don't stand up on it, I

Ukrainian forces stopped Russia’s advance, forcing Moscow to spend over 160,000 lives this year to gain just 1,600 km² - less than 0.7% of Ukraine, WP reports. Russia hasn’t taken a major Ukrainian city since 2022 and now loses around 1,500 troops per day. 1/

Senator David McCormick invested between $500,000 and $1.25 million into cryptocurrency, then voted to advance a crypto industry-backed bill out of committee. We need to ban congressional stock and crypto trading *now*. inquirer.com/politics/penns…

The claim that taxpayers spent $2 billion on tuition for foreign students at Harvard is one of those lies that's so baseless that you can't even figure out where it came from. Total undergrad financial aid at Harvard last year was $275 million. None of it was paid for by

This President Donald J. Trump is exploiting his position for his and his family's personal financial benefit in audacious ways we've never seen before. And Americans are right to ask: when he cuts deals, are they based on the nation's interests, or his own? nytimes.com/2025/05/25/wor… via @NYTimes

"In a month, Afghans may be deported back to a government that remains allied with al Qaeda. We asked for their help... and at infinite personal risk, they gave it. Then we offered our help, a safe place to live—and now we’re going back on our word." thebulwark.com/p/this-memoria…

This is the late Sergeant Alfred Masters, the first-ever Black man to serve in the U.S Marine Corps. The Trump Administration has scrubbed all mention of him from military websites, considering it “DEI.” RETWEET if you stand with Sergeant Masters this Memorial Day! 🇺🇸

Quantіan Unfortunately, the truth. Other countries are moving to fill the gap and acquire top talent. We've completely forgotten how America prospered.

In the past 24 hours Trump has pardoned: •A corrupt Virginia sheriff who took over $75,000 in bribes •A man convicted of serious tax crimes, whose mom donated $1 million to Trump and worked on his campaigns •A wealthy reality TV couple who support him Blatant corruption.

This guy stole $10 million from the employees of his nursing home to buy himself a luxury yacht and Cartier watches. He PLED GUILTY. And because his Mom gave Trump $1 million, he just got a pardon. And this story barely makes the news today. WTF. nytimes.com/2025/05/27/us/…

The stock market is down 1.37%, not up 10%, since Trump took office. The price of gas is up 2.6%, not down 20%. Consumer confidence is lower than it was at any point in 2023 or 2024. Just baffling that a U.S. senator goes on Twitter to tell obvious, easily checkable lies.

Democrats cannot claim to be in favor of campaign finance reform when they allow billionaire-funded super PACs to control Democratic primaries. Democrats must get billionaire money out of primaries. NOW.

This is brilliant. Watch this and ask yourself, is there a risk of quid pro quo corruption created by SuperPACs? youtube.com/shorts/REHO3lY…
