"Whenever anger is made into a virtue and compassion into a vice, we can know the spirit of anti-Christ is at work." - Skye Jethani “Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven."

It’s usually around now that people remember the paygo law exists and their reconciliation bill would trigger big Medicare cuts.

The incompetence at every level is absolutely breathtaking.

Honestly these people need psychiatric help.

If I were a scammer, I would immediately use this data to impersonate brands/businesses to con consumers into handing over their credit card details. The guardrails are gone.

BREAKING: Federal grand jury indicts Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan in immigration case, allowing charges against her to continue.

This epitomizes one of the biggest problems with the "new right," which is that many of them cannot distinguish between "cancel culture" and "having standards." You simply do not have to praise someone for saying "Heil Hitler." That's not intellectual bravery. It's depravity.

Putin and the rest of the world continuing to laugh at these bumbling fools.

If your idea of a “free speech hero” is someone yelling the N-word at kids on a playground— And you say nothing when the President uses ICE to detain people over their political expression— You don’t support free speech. You’re just a racist hiding behind the First Amendment.

NEW: The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion. In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose just 29%.

“Shipping ports are empty across the United States. Nothing is coming in. Businesses have cancelled the remainder of their 2025 orders.” (h/t FreightWaves)

Dom Lucre, who is known for sharing misleading information and was once banned from X for sharing child sexual abuse material, was at the White House today.   Lucre said he was among the invited guests for a briefing dedicated to "members of the new media" by Karoline Leavitt.

"Key commodity exports plunge as Trump's trade war bites" www.axios.com/2025/04/26/t... "This already looks worse than 2018"

FT: Trump “has puzzled trade negotiators in Tokyo after complaining about a test where he claims a bowling ball is dropped on a car .. “.. Japan does not carry out such tests ..” @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/b545...

I was promised “little screws.” 🤡

Page One in San Francisco: California ports are ground zero for worries about the lack of incoming Chinese imports — and the empty shelves to come. “This is going to be worse than during the COVID-19 pandemic.”

NYT: One estimate finds that DOGE’s “firings, re-hirings, lost productivity and paid leave of thousands of workers” will actually COST taxpayers “upward of $135 billion this fiscal year.” @nytimes.com 🤡 www.nytimes.com/2025/04/24/u...

Amen.

After federal troops forced a fugitive slave named Anthony Burns back into slavery in the 1850s, one Bostonian wrote, “we went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.” The abuse of power radicalizes people. We are seeing that now.

A Sabbath Poem by Wendell Berry w/ illustration

Who could’ve foreseen that it would be a disaster to put an unqualified Fox weekend host with a drinking problem and sordid personal history in charge of the military

If you have proof that a man you deported to an El Salvadoran prison for allegedly being a gang member, the thing you might do is present that evidence in court. The thing you don’t do is show a doctored photo on TV while avoiding presenting it to a judge. www.mediaite.com/trump/trump-...

they want us poor, sick and desperate

NEW: A federal judge in Massachusetts grants a preliminary injunction blocking the Trump administration from deporting people to third countries without telling them where they're going and allowing them to raise fears of persecution or torture. The opening lays out the stakes.

Here's the thing about exploiting this mother to fight due process.

The freight guys have really started freaking out over the past 48-72 hours:

These stories landed today, within 11 hours of each other. This presidential administration is a clear and present danger to the American people.

More evidence that the best way to understand DOGE is it’s effectively a massive cyberattack on the US govt, near worst case scenario. In addition to the direct damage, likely at least some of the DOGE operatives, their devices, or transmissions are compromised by Russian intel and other agencies.

This is excellent news!

Before DOGE, Elon Musk was a prime example of how government investment can spur innovation — Tesla thrived on govt support. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

Musk’s cost-cutting goals are getting exponentially smaller as he’s slowly realizing that the government is not a car company. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

TRUIST: “Using snapback to downgrade equities from neutral to less attractive and upgrade cash one notch.” $SPX

Oh. "This is about whether we have functional constitutional government in this country. If the IRS can go after you because of what you think or what you believe or what you do, we'd no longer live in a free country.“

Ukraine carries to grave the victims of russia’s Palm Sunday “mistake”. Father, mother and son. The family was on their way to church. They put a soccer ball into the son’s casket. The boy loved soccer. #StandWithUkraine #Sumy

JPMORGAN: “.. survey data continuing to flag a deleterious effect on business and consumer sentiment. Indeed, today’s Empire State Survey showed .. a continued drop in future expectations, which fell back to its lowest point since the September 11, 2001 attacks.”

Even if you believe we should expel every single illegal immigrant ASAP - even if you believe that you would agree that sending a 19 year old to a hellhole from which he may never get out, simply for coming into the country illegally is a damn crime against humanity.Surely you would believe that....

Hell of a story here: To "reach legion-level before the apocalypse,” Musk has used his wealth to bully and buy the silence of women who have his kids
