The oligarchs just sit there hoarding wealth, buying homes for fun, and calling it “the market” when we can’t afford the basics just to survive. We made them rich buying their junk, and their big idea to fix society? Let us fight each other and starve. It's cheaper that way. #EatTheRich

25% tax on Apple products while singling out the CEO by name for retribution, 50% tax on European goods, expulsion of foreign students, bill passed with most debt in history, while hosting a dinner for people who gave you $300+ million. All in the last 24 hours. The Golden Age.

You're seeing America kamikaze itself into a brick wall. It didn't have to be this way. But greed and racism, our two sins, will be our downfall. Too many people still with their hands in the sand.

JUST IN: Harvard sues the Trump administration, saying it has made 7,000 foreign students pawns in an unconstitutional bid to bludgeon the university over its First Amendment-protected viewpoints. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

if dems want messaging help, stop telling people you're "fighting back." it sounds like you're being mugged. call off the podcaster search, take your ridiculous money pile and try opening some food banks and free clinics. hurricanes are coming and the feds have no plan. looks like an opening to me.

“Take a breath man, it’s not that serious.” Unbelievable statement an ICE agent told a man who collapsed after being handcuffed following his immigration hearing. The overzealous agents had the wrong man & would have kidnapped him had his attorney not insisted in reviewing the arrest warrant.

This is some authoritarian shit. Noem said since Harvard won’t give her disciplinary records on students, she’s terminating their foreign exchange student program immediately, and ordered that foreign students must transfer to other schools or have visas revoked.

Mental health isn’t about adapting to madness—it’s about seeing it clearly. Trump is not a well man; don't normalize his behavior. You might be thinking, "Well, duh!" However, we are very good at having normalized things as a way of coping with them...without realizing we have done so.

The most corrupt administration in American history by far, we are only 4 months in, and he hasn’t come close to the depths of depravity he is mining. But tune into CNN for updates on a dinner party in 2023 where Biden used the wrong fork.

I realize that as a retired professor I have a responsibility to say more on this than I have. International students are essential to the fiscal bottom line of almost every university. This is an unambiguous attempt to destroy Harvard—permanently. And he won’t stop with Harvard. This is madness.

This is what an authoritarian regime would do. Hidden deep in Trump’s 1,100-page bill that passed the House today is a provision that would block federal courts from enforcing contempt charges against government officials who violate court orders.

Some former DOJ attorneys are concerned Martin will use his new posts to spread disinformation, delegitimize future elections, and target leading Democrats and prosecutors who have pursued Trump. Indeed, it may already be happening. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

He admits he is for sale. How is this not "high crimes and misdemeanors"? "“I wish I had a plane to give you,” a seemingly exasperated Ramaphosa said at one point. “I wish you did. I would take it,” Trump responded. “If your country offered the United States Air Force a plane, I would take it.”"

The fight for democracy is the fight of our generation. It may not be the battle we wanted, but it is the one we face. The state of our democracy and the future of our country depends on our willingness to take risks, ignore the naysayers, weather setbacks and fight fiercely for democracy.
