A UFC cage.
A Tesla showroom.
A gold-encrusted ballroom.
Trump has been busy turning the White House front lawn into his billionaire playground.
What has he done for American families?

Countdown: this Friday, the MAGA DOJ has to respond under oath to a federal court concern that DOJ slush fund lawyers committed a “fraud on the court.”
I’ve never heard of senior DOJ folks ever accused of such a thing.
Four days left!
Nice to see the realization spread that Ukraine is actually winning. foreignpolicy.com/2026/06/05/u...
This is how he compensates his gang of thugs for disrupting the elections this coming November. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...
Senate Republicans to Trump: “Don’t worry, we’ll protect your filthy slush fund, with just enough ‘hall pass’ votes not to make a difference.”
Bad enough to say “pretexts are fine as long as you’re going after black voters”; worse when the pretext is exploded, and the Court still blocks. www.huffpost.com/entry/suprem...
We may need the business execs to also convince Trump officials to stop poisoning the well on permitting reform with illegal regulatory interference. Everyone is sick of that.
Only after complaints from big corporations roll in does this administration begin to reconsider stupidity. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
Genius move by Trump calling Thom Tillis a “loser” while he needs his vote. Maybe some choice words for Cornyn too? newrepublic.com/post/211450/...
Do understand the concept of the “hall pass.” thehill.com/homenews/sen...
I will not concede that Ukraine should give up ANY territory to Russian invaders, particularly when Ukraine is so obviously winning, and Russia is reduced to terror attacks that murder civilians. Remember the punditocracy on Ukraine having “weeks” to survive?
www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
Punchline from UK: “climate change-driven flooding … has the potential to trigger a destructive shock to the housing market that could ripple across the wider economy.” Time to wake up?
Even with their own corrupt fossil fuel stooges in key Trump positions, the market just doesn’t support this rotten program. www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...
The unthinkable has happened. DOJ lawyers in RI are under federal judicial scrutiny for misconduct, and the longstanding “presumption of regularity” is lost.
www.cbsnews.com/news/rhode-i...
Pulte has no business at DNI, interim, temporary, part-time or otherwise. Period.
Bad enough to weaponize Americans’ banking data; give him intelligence data and the damage to our Intelligence Community’s reputation will be profound.

Democracy is the house that we all live in.
Donald Trump and his Supreme Court are setting that house on fire.
Reposted bySenator Sheldon Whitehouse
Republicans rammed through another partisan bill that does nothing to lower costs for Americans. They're giving billions of dollars to ICE and CBP without a single cent to make health care, energy or food more affordable. Republicans clearly have their priorities backwards.
Punchline: “Every ground line of communication leading into Crimea, or going west into western Zaporizhzhia Oblast and occupied Kherson Oblast, is under Ukrainian fire control.”
