This guy is good
DO YOU AGREE WITH JAMES? James Talarico raised some eye-brows yesterday when he said Democrats in congress need to work with Donald Trump. "We should make the final two years of his presidency the most productive of any presidency in American history. If President Trump wants the same plaques and portraits and busts as LBJ, we can help make that a reality. When you extend an open hand instead of a closed fist, you'll be surprised by who takes that hand." Your Thoughts?

Reminder: when Sean Duffy was a congressman, he and other Republicans voted against upgrading air traffic control systems. Now, he’s trying to blame those systems for Newark airport’s outages – while claiming DOGE’s cuts of critical support staff at the FAA had nothing to do with it. Hello?

🚨MAJOR BREAKING: A massive report exposes that Trump purchased $100,000,000 in bonds tied to companies DIRECTLY impacted by his policies. That is slam dunk insider trading and is IMPEACHABLE. Overall, Trump has made an estimated $3.4 BILLION in just one year and 6 months.

Israel won’t allow the plastic needed to make a mask for a 6–year-old child for the burns on her face. Blocking medical supplies isn’t a “dispute,” it’s a WAR CRIME.

Voting matters
Rep. Ryan would have had an excuse—but he made it to the floor. This highlights just how derelict the members who didn’t make it—and leadership—were.

Draining that swamp 🙄
Katie Wiles, daughter of former White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, is a partner at Continental Strategy, whose reported federal lobbying income rose from $1.8 million in 2024 to more than $27 million in 2025 and reached $35.7 million in the first nine months of 2026. Continental promoted Katie to director in its Jacksonville and DC offices on November 8, 2024, one day after President-elect Trump named her mother chief of staff. The promotion added lobbying and business development to her existing communications role. The firm holds a $35,000-a-month lobbying contract with the government of Republika Srpska, the pro-Russian Bosnian Serb entity. During an August 2026 trip that Continental says was for a separate US corporate client, Katie was photographed holding a rifle at a shooting range alongside the entity’s interior minister, Željko Budimir. On September 21, 2026, Susie Wiles met at the White House with Željka Cvijanović, the Serb member of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s three-member presidency. A White House official says Continental partner Alex Garcia, not Katie, arranged the meeting. The developments come amid allegations by former HHS senior adviser and MAHA advocate Calley Means that Susie Wiles’s office stalled MAHA policies while courting industry money for the midterms. Means also says Continental’s revenue surge was “tied to Katie Wiles working there.” A Wiles spokesperson calls the claims “outrageous, defamatory, and provably false.” Continental calls the claims about the firm “inaccurate and baseless.” Follow: @AFpost

I’ll be posting this every single day: SPREAD THIS FAR AND WIDE: Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill was designed to leave Americans feeling the pain long after Republicans passed it. When the worst cuts hit, don’t suddenly blame Democrats. REPUBLICANS WROTE IT. REPUBLICANS PASSED IT. REPUBLICANS OWN IT. Don’t let them rewrite history.
