VIDEO OF THE DAY: Democrats flip +15 Trump district in stunning special election
The blue team scored a pair of HUGE wins in Pennsylvania, where Democrat Dan Goughnour handily won a special election in western Pennsylvania on Tuesday, keeping majority control of the state House in his party’s hands by a single seat, and Democrat James Malone nabbed a state Senate seat by flipping a +15 Trump district. Something tells us that people are not pleased with the way President Elon and his sidekick are running the country.

Trump says compensation fund being discussed for pardoned Jan. 6 rioters
During an interview with Newsmax, Trump confirmed that "there's talk about" setting up a compensation fund for the Jan. 6 MAGA rioters who had to suffer the indignity of a couple months in jail after, we apparently must remind everyone, TRYING TO OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT. Let that sink in — Trump wants to spend your tax dollars on payouts to hundreds of domestic terrorists and rioters.

Elon Musk drops money bomb on critical state Supreme Court race
State Democracy Defenders: The most important race in the country right now is in Wisconsin where the balance of the Supreme Court (in America's purplest state!) will hinge on one seat that is on the ballot in 20 days. Elon is spending millions to buy the race — and the court and state — for Trump. Click here to fight back and stop Musk and Trump!

Trump signs sweeping executive order to disenfranchise millions of American voters
The MAGA cult leader on Tuesday signed a sweeping executive order attempting a major overhaul of American elections, requiring people to prove their citizenship when they register to vote. The order — which also includes an array of other changes, from mail-in ballot deadlines to election equipment — could risk disenfranchising tens of millions of Americans. Election law experts questioned whether Trump had the authority to make the changes, saying the order is all but certain to be met with legal challenges.

Rep. Lauren Boebert hints Trump administration is working to rename DC the "District of America"
Uh, we CANNOT believe we're saying this, but we agree with Beetlejuice fan and vape aficionado Lauren Boebert. Christopher Columbus' oopsie daisy "discovery" of America and his well-documented genocidal conquests certainly don't warrant a federal holiday, let alone naming rights to our frickin' capital. But we kindly request they take things one step further and finally, rightfully declare the district the 51st state of America.

Trump national security adviser Mike Waltz admits he made Signal war admin text group but laughably accuses Atlantic editor of "tricking" his way into chat
What is a Trumper to do when faced with the unquestionable evidence of his own stupidity? The only possible answer is, of course, double down. National security adviser Mike Waltz hedged his admission of guilt in Signalgate by floating the ridiculous assertion that Alantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg somehow "tricked" him into opening his phone, going to his messages, pressing "add contact," and choosing "Jeffrey Goldberg." The Trump administration's utter contempt for our intelligence is beyond belief.

Florida Republicans float lifting some child labor laws to fill jobs vacated by undocumented immigrants
GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis and his Republican cronies are literally contemplating loosening child labor laws to plug the gaps in low-wage, undesirable jobs created, in part, by the Trump regime's rounding up and running off of undocumented migrants desperate to make a living. The GOP-dominated state legislature on Tuesday advanced a bill that would loosen child labor laws, allowing children as young as 14 years old to work overnight shifts. If the new law is passed, kids would be able to work overnight jobs — on school days. They are currently prevented from working earlier than 6:30am or later than 11pm per state law. Is this what they mean by great again?

Jasmine Crockett criticized over comment mocking Greg Abbott’s wheelchair
Rep. Jasmine Crockett sparked a tsunami of crocodile tears from the MAGA right wing by referring to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott as "Gov. Hot Wheels" in an off-color and ill-advised reference to his usage of a wheelchair. While obviously in very poor taste, the idea that suddenly the "f*ck your feelings" crowd is deeply offended by this is absolutely ridiculous. You don't get to be the political party that has made naked bigotry, dehumanizing slurs, and targeted political violence their animating force and then get upset when someone makes fun of a deeply immoral man. Abbott, it must be noted, has been working for years to kick kids (abled and disabled alike) to the curb in an ongoing school privatization crusade and also literally changed state laws to make sure future victims lose the very rights he enjoyed to collect a huge settlement in the accident that left him disabled. Crockett was clearly in the wrong, but if you can't take the heat then get out of the kitchen.

Americans’ confidence in the economy hits a multi-year low
Gee, wonder if Trump's idiotic tariffs and whip-saw trade wars with stalwart allies are having a negative effect on the economy and the public's confidence in things not going belly up...

Trump floats new convoluted excuse for bombshell text leak
You really just need to read the transcript from Donald's pathetic Newsmax interview to absorb the full scope of his incompetence. As always, the buck stops literally everywhere else except his desk, by the way.
