Powell: "What we're waiting for to reduce rates is to understand what will happen with really the tariff inflation... everyone that I know is forecasting a meaningful increase in inflation in coming months from tariffs, because somebody has to pay for them... some of it will fall on the consumer"

Sen Lee’s comments/jokes/tweets were despicable and beyond what a citizen would expect of a sitting senator. The do not represent the values of Americans. And for his staff not to call him out, you are complicit. www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

It was a thrill to march at the No Kings Rally in Philadelphia on Saturday with friends and about a hundred thousand people. On the stage, I led a chant of "no kings -- freedom," and I tried to explain three things that slogan or that sequence can mean. snyder.substack.com/p/no-kings

Walz: "This cannot be the norm. It cannot be the way that we deal with our political differences. Now is the time for us to recommit to the core values of this country ... Talk to a neighbor rather than arguing. Debate an issue. Shake hands. Find common ground. This is who Melissa Hortman was."

Rand Paul: "I've never liked the idea of the parade. I grew up in the '70s and '80s, and the only parades I can remember are Soviet parades for the most part or North Korean parades. The parades I remember from our history were different...we never glorified weapons so much...then there is the cost"

when 4-5M people march peacefully against the current regime it's the story of the year. NYT cannot bring itself to focus on that reality.

Compare and contrast scenes from yesterday in America. On the one hand, Trump's low-energy Dear Leader parade (that cost you $45 million). On the other, millions of people across the country gathering peacefully to say: Here, we have no kings.

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

I get so overwhelmed with anger and sadness about what's happening to our country I want to flee into the wilderness. But the antidote is the unity of the American people standing up for justice, it give hope and courage.

Just finished up at the Evanston No Kings rally. It was safe, peaceful, and a show of solidarity by at least 1,000 people. Go to your local protest. Don’t let this administration scare you. Stand with your community when our leaders won’t.

When you normalize political violence by pardoning Jan 6 attackers, can we be surprised when people target public officials? This is not how we resolve our disputes in America. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp-vid...

Read these words from Senator Murray, who has said it so well tonight. We’re in danger of losing democracy. Don’t ignore what’s happening. joycevance.substack.com/p/we-are-a-d...

The most inspiring chapters in our nation's history came when Americans faced down some of our country's darkest demons. Those moments, like our own, were difficult to live through but also brought the chance to bring out the best in us, with enduring consequences.

It’s disgusting that the Pentagon went from being run by a highly decorated 4-star General to a trashy tacky rapist drunkard buffoon from Fox Propaganda. That goes for everything Dept in the US Govt now. American democracy is in mortal danger and it’ll take decades to repair the damage.
