So sad. So sick. So corrupt and evil. And so brazenly illegal, as if that matters now. :- (

Short but pithy #TrumpVirus #Truth from Robert Reich

> Trump just said the quiet part out loud: he doesn't care about your finances. "Not even a little bit."> Here's where your money is going instead.

Yes, all jokers!
The only apt metaphor with cards, for this Stable Genius who managed to bankrupt casinos and everything he touches...
"He's playing without a full deck."
And as has been pointed out (Late Nite), these cards are UNO. A game whose goal is to end with the FEWEST cards. "Like bragging about the highest golf score."#TrumpVirus #Truth #BrainSpurs #emoluments #WarCrimes #TrumpEpsteinFiles #coverup #sedition #Jan6 #Kleptocracy #nepotism #law

A New Report On Revolving Door Corruption that Helps Make Sense of the Latest Twin Metals Lobbying Disclosures
Lobbying activity for the Twin Metals copper and nickel mine on the edge of the Boundary Waters increased dramatically in the second quarter of 2026.
The new lobbying disclosure is here. In Q1 2026, the Bernhardt Group reported Twin Metals income of $120,000; in Q2, $220,000. Bernhardt lobbied both houses of Congress and multiple executive branch agencies on “mine leasing issues” on behalf of the Chilean company that owns Twin Metals.
I would also direct your attention to this excellent Public Citizen report by Alan Zibel and Jesse Coleman on David Bernhardt and revolving door corruption. The report was published in June, so it does not take into account the latest disclosures. But the points it makes about revolving door corruption provide important context for understanding these documents.
Since its launch just one year ago, Bernhardt’s firm has recorded $8.8 million in revenue from 53 clients in just three completed quarters of lobbying — a classic example of how Washington, D.C.’s revolving door blurs the lines between corporate interests and government. Bernhardt Group reported nearly $2.9 million in the first quarter of 2026, putting the lobbying firm on pace for $11 million in revenue this year. The “revolving door” is a system in which corporations and other wealthy interests develop close relationships with government officials through the movement of key individuals back and forth between the private and public sectors.
Zibel and Coleman also detail closed-door meetings at Interior in September and November of 2025 with Bernhardt Group lobbyist William McGrath and Twin Metals executives.
More broadly, the report makes the case that David Bernhardt is now operating as a “Shadow Secretary” of the Interior, while the actual cabinet Secretary, Doug Burgum, goes on television to defend Trump’s war in Iran, or to pretend he’s never heard of batteries, or to talk about the reflecting pool and other Trump vanity projects.
If you want to make sense of what the administration is doing on the Twin Metals front, or of the actual dirty work that’s getting done behind the scenes of the embarrassing, outrageous, and infuriating spectacle of the second Trump administration, this is a must read.

#Republicans appear to be in a holding pattern while they figure out how to address the issue of the $1.8 billion #SlushFund. We are still waiting on votes from 3 Republicans: #BillCassidy of Louisiana, #JonHusted of Ohio & #DanSullivan of Alaska.
Husted & Sullivan are both up for re-election. Cassidy recenty lost his primary to a Trump-backed challenger.

Why doesn't this lead to Donald Trump's impeachment already? Has the Overton window widened so much that our sensibilities have become dull to the fact that this obvious slush fund makes every American endlessly taxable? Will someone please go stop the wrecking ball that is currently in motion before it wreaks further havoc? https://reason.com/2026/05/21/trumps-corruption-is-brazen-obvious-and-costly-will-enough-republicans-try-to-stop-him/

Acting AG #ToddBlanche said in announcing the fund in a statement that it was “a lawful [nope] process for victims of lawfare & weaponization to be heard & seek redress.”
#Democrats & #government #watchdogs immediately pledged to fight what they called a #corrupt & unprecedented resolution, warning that the arrangement would unjustly enrich people close to the president with #TaxpayerMoney & open the door to meritless claims of political persecution.

"A cryptocurrency firm run by the billionaire Winklevoss twins was facing a punishing federal lawsuit. After Donald J. Trump returned to the White House, the Securities and Exchange Commission moved to freeze the case.
The S.E.C. had also sued Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, but then dropped the case altogether under the new administration.
And after a yearslong legal fight with Ripple Labs, the new S.E.C. tried to reduce a court-ordered penalty against the crypto firm, seeking to soften the blow of the punishment.
The agency’s pullback from these cases illustrated a wide-ranging transformation in the federal government’s treatment of the crypto industry during President Trump’s second term, a New York Times investigation has found.
It is unheard-of for the agency to retreat from a swath of lawsuits against a single industry. And yet, The Times found that the S.E.C. had eased up on more than 60 percent of the crypto cases that were ongoing when Mr. Trump returned to the White House, moving to pause litigation, lessen penalties or outright dismiss the cases.
The dismissals were particularly unusual, The Times found. Under Mr. Trump, S.E.C. dismissals came at a far higher rate for crypto firms than other cases.
And although the particulars of the crypto lawsuits differed, many of these firms had something in common: financial ties to Mr. Trump, the self-described crypto president."

#Conservative activist #JackPosobiec joyfully hailed the “end of #democracy” at #CPAC, further emphasizing #Republicans’ apparent desire to completely overthrow #America as we know it.
#Posobiec, who helped popularize the “Pizzagate” #ConspiracyTheory, appeared at CPAC’s opening day on Wed. He spoke during a panel moderated by … #WhiteSupremacist #SteveBannon.
