This is disgusting. Someone set fire to Shapiro’s home while he and his family were sleeping. I hope this person is caught quickly and held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

An underrated factor in how we got ourselves into this mess is that Americans are increasingly relying on computers and the internet instead of their own critical thinking faculties (AI is making this even worse), and as a result are uninformed and easy to manipulate.

George HW Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Clinton (D) got us out. George W Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Obama (D) got us out. Trump (R) got us mired in a recession. Biden (D) got us out. Trump (R) is yet again ushering us into a recession. Starting to notice a trend?

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Just so everybody understands, Booker has been speaking cogently about the issues the entire time and Strom Thurmond famously spent hours reading from the encyclopedia, because segregationists were and are dumbshits

Donald Trump has betrayed America. If you couldn’t see it before, you just saw it today.

First nuclear weapons management, now this. No one - Democrat or Republican - voted for this kind of incompetence.

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.

We all like to yell at the Democrats, but it’s really Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune who are letting Elon Musk and his faceless goon squad make a mockery of their power as leaders of a coequal branch without uttering a peep or lifting a finger.

It’s funny (and endearing) to me to see Americans on this site vowing to “buy Canadian!” and saying they’ll buy more… maple syrup….warm winter socks ….NHL jerseys… Meanwhile “I’m gonna drive EVERYWHERE and crank the thermostat!” is the correct answer.

He's not blaming DEI, he's blaming women and non white people.

In a functioning democracy, a president who -tries to seize Congress's constitutional spending powers -attempts to rewrite the Constitution unilaterally -pardons violent insurrectionists who attacked the government -fires the Inspectors General and DOJ prosecutors would face immediate impeachment

Everything that Trump said and did today -- all of it -- was entirely predictable based on his campaign, character, and first term in office. If you're surprised, you were either misinformed or not informed enough. We deserve everything that's about to come our way. Buckle up.

Republican Governor Larry Hogan posted video of the constellation Orion and claimed the stars were “large drones” above his home. Just a reminder that Republicans want to shut down the Department of Education.
