It’s the only way to wipe the slate clean, change the course of this country, and give Democrats a majority for at least a decade to accomplish what needs to be done to help the majority of the people, the majority of the time. 

Donald Trump's "presidential gold rush" is accelerating, said Zachary Basu in Axios. In a recent filing with the Office of Government Ethics, Trump disclosed he had made 3,711 stock trades in the first quarter of 2026—"a staggering escalation" from the previous quarter's 380. Nearly 60% of the trades happened within one day of a major market event.

The dizzying number of ways Trump has enriched himself and his inner circle—including corrupt crypto deals that have netted him billions-has "so desensitized us that the country stopped caring," said Matt K. Lewis in The Hill. We non-plutocrats "hear 'million' and 'billion' and our eyes glaze over." But this unprecedented level of corruption damages our economy and national security. With two-and-a-half years left to "fully monetize the Oval Office," Trump is "just getting started."

Trump earned $2.2 BILLION in 2025.

Air Force Major Jason Watson was arrested on the Capitol Steps Wednesday after taking part in a protest that called for the impeachment of President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

Watson, an active member of the Air Force, delivered a speech ahead of his arrest. He listed several perceived crimes committed by the president and vice president.

“Our Constitution binds us all together as Americans. Like countless veterans before me, military members serving now, I’ve devoted my life in service to our Democratic Republic,” Watson said. “Always doing my best to honor my oath and protect America against foreign threats. But the greatest threat to our Democratic Republic is not a foreign one. It is us, we the people, not just the left or just the right or just the center, all of us together define who we are as Americans, and like it or not, we have all played a part, myself included, in getting ourselves into this mess we are all in.”
