New: President Trump's memecoin project is preparing to launch a membership club promising "elite and extraordinary experiences". This is the latest attempt to prop up a token down 97% from peak. https://www.citationneeded.news/trump-coin-club/ #crypto #cryptocurrency #USpol #USpolitics

Will 2026 finally be the year of third parties in the United States, the year when voters are fed up with our political duopoly? https://www.cfr.org/articles/the-u-s-economy-was-shaky-before-the-iran-war-now-its-in-real-trouble #elections #democracy #duopoly #elections2026 #DemocraticParty #GOP #midtermElections #politicalParties #USElections #USPolitics

"The waiting list to renounce US citizenship at the London consulate is more than 14 months."

Every assassination attempt = new budget request. 3rd attempt = vanity ballroom. No empire pays debts before selling "security." #Corruption #SecurityTheater #Assassination #LindseyGraham #USPolitics #DebtCrisis #VanityProject #Congress #TaxPayers https://twp.ai/9OUm8j

The Financial Times saying what we've all been saying "He's out in May" ...and also "bit weird nothing has happened over the Epstein Scandal in the USA, isn't it?" #EpsteinClass #ChristianTurner #USPol #UKpol #UKpolitics #USPolitics #Trump #KeirStarmer #Starmer

Live to tape, historian and author Arthur Milnes regales us with tales of the US presidents and Canadian prime ministers he has known. He talks about chaining up Nixon in the back yard (not the way it sounds); his presidential and prime ministerial-planted garden, what happened when his wife learned he'd offered to put up Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter, and more. https://shorturl.at/rsEqD at bluevotecafe.com, or wherever you get your podcasts! #demsabroad #bluevotecafe #politics #USpol #USpolitics

A limited-government advocate in Texas persuaded five small towns to incorporate as “liberty cities,” which feature lean governments, little to no taxation and scant regulation. At least two of them struggle to provide basic services. https://www.propublica.org/article/art-martinez-de-vara-dallas-hero-lawsuit?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post #News #Texas #Dallas #Police #Law #Government #USPolitics

The White House says Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick properly divested from Cantor Fitzgerald by transferring leadership to his sons. Anyway GOP officials called Lutnick about a Cantor-funded PAC planning to spend $1.75M on Ken Paxton and the PAC reversed course, but that’s probably just how independent companies behave when the former owner gets a phone call. https://www.axios.com/2026/04/24/texas-crypto-howard-lutnick-republicans #crypto #cryptocurrency #USpol #USpolitics

RE: https://flipboard.com/@lgbtqnation/lgbtq-nation-c65vn37sz/-/a-J_msHCvERHSM6NnQ1gQjLQ%3Aa%3A3220327925-%2F0 Getting all the important offices into the hands of Christian fundamentalist Trump cultists. This just-so story about how "Lover's Point" was originally "Lovers of Christ Point" story is some _deep_ evangelical fundamentalist culture decay-of-the-world shit right here. Whether it's true or not doesn't matter - Wikipedia doesn't mention it - it just sends the "correct" signals to the "correct" people. #uspol #uspolitics #fascism #politics #christofascists #christofascism

The New York Times says FBI investigated reporter after article about FBI Director Kash Patel’s girlfriend. “The FBI’s attempt to criminalize routine reporting is a blatant violation of [the reporter's] First Amendment rights and another attempt by this administration to prevent journalists from scrutinizing its actions,” said Joseph Kahn, the newspaper’s executive editor. @AssociatedPress@flipboard.com reports: https://flip.it/hotS6k #KashPatel #FBI #Media #NYTimes #USPolitics #News

A Virginia judge has blocked redistricting of the state, voted for in a referendum yesterday, that could net Democrats four extra House seats. State Attorney General Jay Jones says he will fight the order. Here's CNBC. https://flip.it/VF2Cp6 #USNews #USLaw #Virginia #USPolitics #TrumpAdministration

Devin Nunes, who was a powerful member of the GOP Congress quit the body to lead Trump’s social network. Truth Social’s done so badly that now Nunes has been forced out in disgrace. I think I hear the world’s smallest violin playing… #USPolitics https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump-media-ceo-replaced-after-stock-plunge-wipeout/

For years, crypto executives have touted cryptocurrency’s supposed anti-authoritarian and human rights credentials. But where are they when their beloved president claims Alex Pretti’s lawful gun ownership justified his killing, or when ICE leaders tell subordinates to enter homes without warrants? #crypto #cryptocurrency #USpol #USpolitics #CitationNeededNewsletter
