Keep your eyes on this story. Shadowy “online” Axos Bank and its biggest billionaire shareholder, Don Hankey, have together extended more than $500 million in financing for Trump’s benefit. They helped him out on loans and now a huge civil judgment. What will they get in return?

There is something seriously wrong with #Christofascists, like #MikeHuckabee. It's a rot that's based deep in their #Christian genes. It's a lack of #humanity and decency that they justify with performative piety. And it also reflects a sadistic, corrupt worldview in which education is for suckers, and those who got saddled with unpayable loans deserve their suffering.

Sen. Goober has humiliated himself every time he's opened his mouth, proving he doesn't have the slightest idea of what's going on. But, now we're supposed to believe he's a credible, authoritative voice on #Ukraine? GTFOHWTBS

Mike Johnson has claimed he doesn't have a bank account in his financial disclosures since 2014.

If this doesn't set off alarm bells, nothing will

Tommy Tuberville cares more about what Russia thinks than what our own military leaders think because he’s a filthy rotten traitor.

"Two #rightwing #political operatives must pay up to $1.25 million in fines after they were found liable for launching a robocall campaign designed to keep #Black New Yorkers from voting...

Jacob Wohl & Jack Burkman, who have a history of concocting #ConspiracyTheories to try to smear #Democrats, were found liable last March of orchestrating a robocall campaign that reached about 5,500 predominantly Black #NewYorkers"

Man, that seems like that would be enough to spur a new lawsuit trying to take her off the ballot over #J6 using section 3 of the 14th.

The last case was in state court, which obviously the judges are mostly MAGA maniacs probably, but can't a national constitutional question get into federal court?

Conservative co-sponsors abandon their own bill after gay politician’s powerful speech. Nebraska's anti-trans bill failed after the two state senators refused to vote for it.

@AlliFlowers
Yep, and look at this conspiracy theory that they're spreading as well. Look at the map of the gas fields on the left and then convince me that Israel is going to bother trying to drill wells and guard rigs in the Gaza territorial waters when they've got so much going on throughout their less disputed ones.

I'm in no way condoning methane extraction, but I think by tying together fossil fuels with Israel helps the political technologists rage farm from the left side of the aisle.

In 2022, she said she supported that law and any other mechanism to prohibit abortion from the moment of conception

#Louisiana teacher asks school board why it can find money to give the superintendent of schools a raise, but none for teachers, whose salaries have long flatlined. She was removed, handcuffed, and placed in a police car. https://www.upworthy.com/teacher-pay-give-janitor-car-rp5

The global media consistently quotes Hamas' figures regarding the casualties in Gaza. As of this writing, the number they cite uncritically is 33,000 Palestinian deaths in Gaza, but these numbers are inflated and hide the fact that, in this war, the civilian casualty mortality rate is relatively low. It's imperative to understand these figures, as Hamas' sole way to survive is by increasing and inflating the civilian casualty figures, in order to pressure the international community to stop Israel's just war on the perpetrators of the October 7 massacre.
