This, to me, is the most obvious messaging opportunity ever for Democrats. Chuck Schumer should be on the ground in Arkansas within 24 hours and Democrats in both houses of Congress should be filing measures to provide federal funds to assist in recovery efforts. Force Republicans to say no.

Unless We the People (again) reject kings and aristocracy, we will no longer be equal citizens of a sovereign republic, but subjects of our patrician lords. Billionaires and stable democracies cannot coexist. We are going to have to choose one or the other.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

"Republican senators find themselves in an unusual position these days: begging Trump officials to release funds they themselves appropriated." Honestly, is there a more pathetic, contemptible collection of cowards & simps in the entire world?

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

She’s 100% right. Homans is a cheap punk and a big ole bitch. Smacking him (rhetorically) in the face in response to his gangster tactics makes him look like a fool.

I have a better idea: Email [email protected] or DM @cfpb_tipline on X and tell President Trump and co-president Elon Musk to stop letting Wall Street scam you.

Because this platform is moderated. This is not Twitter. There is no Elon Musk dominating an algorithm that drags down the platform Bluesky is unique. We need it to grow.

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad. There’s not.

Elon Musk is not a Federal employee or a political appointee. DOGE is not a real department. None of their activities are legal. This is a coup. The Republicans in Congress are willing participants in it. At what point do Democrats in DC get that and start acting like it? It’s not the price of eggs!

Several conversations today w people in the key executive departments. And while the particulars are hard to pin down my impression is that the Musk take over stuff is considerably worse than is being presented in the press. By this I don’t necessarily things they done yet but the level of …

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽
