The entire Alabama republican delegation voted against building a bridge in Alabama. Joe Biden got the money approved. They built the bridge. Now Trump wants to name it after himself and republicans are making that a priority.

New: Trump’s abrupt announcement to send $90 payments to seniors by dipping into a Medicare fund has rattled Capitol Hill. One GOP aide told WaPo that lawmakers had planned to use the money to offset funding for community health centers, diabetes programs and other initiatives.

If you put morality aside, as Tucker does professionally, the best possible defense of him is actually that he’s being paid to say this nonsense. To do it for free means he’s lost his mind or is a full fledged idiot.
Tucker Carlson: The government of the United Kingdom is punishing and prohibiting people and ideas it doesn't like. Russia's not doing that. Jacob Rees-Mogg: Whaaaaaaat?

This is blatantly unconstitutional and an Antideficiency Act violation. Congress set the ADA penalty in 1906: 2 years in jail and/or $5,000. It would’ve taken the typical person 31,250 hours of work to pay the fine then, meaning it’s the equivalent of a $1.2 million fine today.
Trump: "I am pleased to announce that my Administration will, immediately, begin sending 'Checks' of nearly $100 to over 20 MILLION wonderful Seniors to help pay for their Medicare Part B premiums, which we have already reduced by significant amounts. This money will come from the Medicare Improvement Fund, a pointless 'Slush Fund' that has only been used by Dumocrats in Congress to pay for the Waste, Fraud, and Abuse for their Special Interest friends, and drive up Healthcare costs. We are finally using this Fund, along with my Most Favored Nations Deals, to substantially LOWER costs for our Seniors. I pledged to protect and preserve Medicare and Social Security, which were on the verge of RUIN by Joe Biden, who foolishly and maliciously let tens of millions of Illegal Aliens into our Country, and we are doing just that for America’s Seniors. This is separate from the equally substantial Refund 'Checks' we are sending to One Million Americans who were overcharged for their Unaffordable Care Act plans by Joe Biden. Because I delivered on this very important issue for the American People, they can also rest assured the highly popular $5,000 Trump Dividend will be distributed to every U.S. Citizen if, and when, the Republicans win the Midterm Elections! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

Trump is stealing your tax dollars to peddle propaganda.  If you’re sick of watching Trump act like a dictator, vote Democrats into power in Congress this November. We need to hold him accountable. apnews.com/article/trump-ads…

NEW: President Trump directly told Russ Vought to find the funds to finance the ads glorifying him. The agency’s general counsel and WH counsel both signed off on the move as legal. The president and WH chief of staff spoke to the DHS secretary. nytimes.com/2026/10/02/us/po…

Hey, @FareedZakaria, you noted expert on California, let's debate all your nonsense here in public. Anyplace, anywhere.
.@FareedZakaria says California is a "case study in failed governance." He says Democrats have struggled to provide "public order" on a local level. Far too often, he says, they've prioritized the rights of the homeless over the rights of home owners. "The Democratic Party needs to think with it's head and not just with it's heart." So...why do Democrats keep winning? "What has happened with partisan alignment now is it's almost tribal." What can be done to break the cycle? Zakaria says San Francisco Mayor @DanielLurie is a "good example" of how to make government work more efficiently. The moderate Democrat with a business background has focused on improving public safety and economic revitilization. "You can tackle these in a way that's not inhumane but does solve the problem."

The Pentagon came up short in its mad dash to spend all $152 billion of its One Big Beautiful Bill funds by Thursday, obligating some 93% of the defense dollars lawmakers gave the military. @briana_reilly and @AnthonyAdragna have more: punchbowl.news/article/defen…
