Trump’s TIME Cover Tantrum, Alex Jones’ Billion-Dollar Loss, Letitia James’ Defiant Roar, and Obama’s Prop 50 Push

No filters. No lies. Just the raw truth.

As Trump whines about a magazine cover, and Republicans in Congress refuse to do their jobs, I’m glad to have more great news for you today. I hope it gives you a small break from all of the madness—something we all deserve.

If you value our raw, unfiltered news and tireless organizing, help power this work—become a paid subscriber today:

ALEX JONES LOSES

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones lost big yesterday, when the Supreme Court rejected his frivolous appeal of the $1.4 billion judgment against him. Jones was previously ordered to give the money to families of the Sandy Hook shooting, after repeatedly calling the tragedy a hoax.

Attorneys for Jones said: “The result is a financial death penalty.” Good. I hope he never digs himself out of this financial hole.

LETITIA JAMES SPEAKS OUT

NY AG Letitia James spoke at a Zohran Mamdani event this week. James, who was recently indicted after Trump pressured the DOJ, came out to loud roars from the crowd, as she raised her fist in defiance.

James stated: “I stand on solid rock. And I will not bow. I will not break. I will not bend. I will not capitulate. I will not give in. I will not give up … You come for me—you gotta come through all of us!”

DOJ ISSUES WITH COMEY CASE

The DOJ’s sloppy case against former FBI Director James Comey is already hitting major roadblocks. A judge swiftly rejected a DOJ attempt to limit Comey’s access to evidence, saying it would “unnecessarily hinder and delay” the proceedings.

Now, Comey is moving to dismiss the case entirely. His attorneys argue that the charges are weak, and say the DOJ’s prosecutor Lindsey Halligan was unlawfully appointed. More to come.

THE COVER

Trump is whining again, throwing a fit over a TIME Magazine cover which he called the worst photo of him ever.

Gov. Gavin Newsom’s response to it quickly went viral. He posted the image with Trump’s neck blurred out, directly mocking what Trump was most upset about.

MOVING TO SEAT GRIJALVA

Dem Rep.-Elect Adelita Grijalva’s win has now been certified in Arizona, yet Speaker Mike Johnson continues to stall her swearing-in. Johnson knows that once Grijalva takes office, the House will be forced to vote on releasing the Epstein Files.

So now, Arizona AG Kris Mayes is threatening legal action, stating: “It’s way past time for Mike Johnson to stop the political games and seat Adelita without delay.”

OBAMA BACKS PROP 50

Former President Barack Obama is featured in a new ad urging California voters to support Prop 50, a ballot measure that would redraw the state’s congressional map.

In the powerful video, Obama warns: “Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years. With Prop 50, you can stop Republicans in their tracks.”

Obama says it “puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.” As they should.

For nearly a decade we’ve relentlessly fought Trump and his accomplices. We’ve made it this far—so there’s no way we’re stopping now.

Our movement is a fire roaring for democracy and truth. Our Watchdog Coalition has reached lawmakers half a million times in the last year, our social media organizing generates billions of impressions weekly, and our daily news brief constantly cuts through Trump’s lies and propaganda.

All of this vital work is funded by our amazing community. No billionaire donors, no corporate agendas, and no nonsense. But to keep our engine running, and make the next decade more powerful than the last, we need all hands on deck.
