Onward & upward. Sometimes the only way we humans learn is by making bad decisions. Sadly, the rest of us will also suffer but the decision has been made. We won’t surrender our beliefs or who we are as people. We chose light - they chose darkness. Let us continue to shine!
From all of us at Kamala HQ:
Thank you for following along 💙

Holy shit.
Let me tell you what just got reported, because you will not believe it until you see it laid out.
The Trump administration cut a billion-dollar tungsten deal with Kazakhstan. Tungsten is the metal we need for missile warheads, fighter jets, and computer chips. Trump himself got on the phone to close it. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick worked it from the inside, sending letters, leaning on the Kazakh president, lining up as much as $1.6 billion in federal financing.
Within weeks of those negotiations, investors tied to a firm partly owned by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump took a 20% stake in an entity connected to the very same Kazakhstan project their father was negotiating. Around that same time, Cantor Fitzgerald, the firm run by Lutnick’s own sons, raised $210 million for a partner in the deal and pocketed the fees.
The fathers set the policy. The sons cashed in.
Six days after the Trump sons and their partners moved their money, Lutnick signed the final deal.
The reporting found one or both families have financial ties to at least 14 companies working with the government on critical mining deals.
The total federal funding flowing toward those companies tops $8.9 billion.
This is your tax money.
It is supposed to secure our supply chains and protect our troops, not pad the portfolios of the President’s children and the Commerce Secretary’s children.
This is the most corrupt administration in American history. It is not close.
We must keep digging, and keep asking the questions they do not want asked. Republicans in Congress are unwilling to lift a finger. Mike Johnson is running a protection racket.
Either we will end the corruption, or the corruption will be the end of us.

A “threat” to conduct oversight in accordance with Congress’s inherent and historic power under Article I is criminal.
That’s simply moronic.
Q: President Trump said Liz Cheney should go to jail and Adam Schiff should go to prison. He declared Barack Obama guilty of treason. What specifically have Democrats said that crosses a criminal line in your view that the President’s statements don’t?
Blanche: Free speech is allowed but there can come a point when a criticism becomes a threat and when a threat becomes something criminal.

12 November 1938 | A Dutch Jewish girl, Liane Minzer (or Münzer), was born in The Hague.
In February 1944 she was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber after the selection together with her older sister Eva (in the picture: Eva (left), Liane (right)).

This week, the City Council approved the final plans for Continental Coliseum, our city’s $1B new arena that will retain our Thunder till at least 2053 and improve our competitiveness for recruiting concerts.
And as these new renderings illustrate, it will also redefine our city. This beautiful building will be among the finest arenas in the world and it will raise the architectural bar for OKC.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Ukraine's President Volodomyr Zelenskyy just EXPOSED that someone in the Trump Administration or allied with Elon Musk is once again preventing Ukraine from using StarShield's technology. This in-kind contribution to Putin's war must be stopped.

This reads like a dystopian nightmare.
The barbarism of the Russian government knows few bounds. Forcing abducted Ukrainian children, who have since reached military age, to fight against their own country is savagery that goes beyond the pale.
And yet Witkoff and Kushner are in Moscow, negotiating with the same brutal government over Ukraine's future and Europe's security architecture, while smiling for the cameras and accepting gifts.
Trump's role in this should not be forgotten. By appeasing Putin and encouraging him to believe that he will ultimately prevail, Trump weakens Russia's incentives to end the conflict sooner, allowing Putin to continue his butchery.

Madi told me if I didn’t let them do the pledge there would be no celebration. 😂 So proud of these two!

Here's the entirety of Trump's bonkers call to C-SPAN, which began with a woman (not Melania) giggling in the background, continued with him going on a fascist diatribe about Venezuela, and ended with the C-SPAN host gently trying to nudge him off the line mid-psychotic rant

A parting gift from @RepThomasMassie.
From Bard College to Palm Beach, criminal investigations should be opened into Jeffrey Epstein's enablers and accomplices.
@TheJusticeDept must release all of the Epstein files NOW.

House Dems tell the Trump administration and businesses that bent the knee to not delete docs. The Trump administration deletes docs, per whistleblower.
If you have docs or if you are being told to change your doc retention practices LET US KNOW. It's important. And we have a secure tips line here

Taps the sign. It’s all so stupid. Russia should have no say in Ukrainian or European security structures any more than a local burglar should have a say in your home security system. Every concession makes more Russian aggression more likely and more likely to succeed.

Racism Is Alive and Well in Mississippi: They're Trying to Steal a Senate Seat From a Black Man
This is naked voter suppression dressed up as "election integrity." Thousands of Mississippians are being screwed out of their votes right now because the state's Republican secretary of state deliberately used sloppy commercial credit data to purge the rolls — and the mess is landing hardest in a race where a Black Democrat is beating a Republican incumbent.
Scott Colom is narrowly ahead of Cindy Hyde-Smith. That lead is under attack because large numbers of voters were forced onto provisional (affidavit) ballots after their names vanished from the poll books. Both campaigns admit thousands of people were hit. CNN has the receipts.
Andrew Couch is one of the casualties. He'd voted at the same polling place in the last two elections without a problem. On Election Day he was told he was registered in a county he hadn’t lived in for six years. On Monday he was informed his ballot is dead. His reaction: "I'm very upset. If people lose faith in the process… it's going to hurt voter turnout in the future." That's the point.
Secretary of State Michael Watson signed off on using Experian credit data to flag "moved" voters. The result: more than 230,000 people — roughly 1 in 9 registered voters statewide — were dumped into inactive status and left off the poll books before Election Day (Mississippi Today). In a state where over 9 percent of residents are unbanked, this data was always going to be garbage. Experian itself has run away from the whole thing, telling CNN its product "was not designed or intended to validate voter records" and that it stopped working with the state in early 2025.
This isn’t some innocent clerical error. It's the same old Mississippi playbook: make it harder for certain people to vote when the outcome looks like it might go the wrong way. A Black man is on the verge of winning a Senate seat the state hasn't handed to a Democrat in decades, and suddenly the rolls are a disaster. This is Republican racism in action.

"Decorated military officers with decades of experience were withheld from promotion after Pentagon staff printed out internet searches showing they had attended official events like promoting COVID-19 vaccinations or marking International Women’s Day...
Hegseth’s executive office led a planned and deliberate process that involved creating paper-only files filled with printouts from internet searches that were inaccessible to the officers under consideration. Hegseth’s office gave instructions about the new criteria over the phone instead of in writing."
