The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.

Tesla now accepts Cybertruck trade-ins, and the official resale loss is $35k over just 6,000 miles. I repeat: according to Tesla itself a Cybertruck loses $5.60 cents per mile, not counting the cost of electricity, tires, etc. Unprecedented levels of flop! www.torquenews.com/11826/tesla-...

Thanks to DOGE’s spending freezes: -EPA labs have halted critical research -Social Security staffers are rationing paper and can’t pay translators -NOAA has lost internet and phone services -National Park workers can’t buy medicine for visitors or rangers’ horses "Efficiency."

Statement from Trump on Putin’s Palm Sunday Massacre missile attack that killed at least 34, including several children, and injured another 117 people:

@gregcasar.bsky.social: "Donald Trump must, by law, fire Elon Musk in 50 days."

The Lincoln Project just decimated Elon Musk with one ad...

The White House has just released a new official statement as the economy crashes: “The President won his second round matchup of the Senior Club Championship today in Jupiter, FL, and advances to the Championship Round tomorrow.”

Fucking BOSTON! Wow! 🤩

What did the business community expect to happen? “You have what’s arguably the most…business-friendly cabinet in maybe the history of the United States… and they don’t seem to care. They don’t seem to be hearing the message of the market… screaming no más.” - @steveliesman.bsky.social

None of this is meant to further American interests. It’s meant to further the oligarchs interests.

We're so glad to see this idea come to fruition! Last month, we laid out the case for a well-coordinated response to Trump and Musk's ongoing assault on ordinary people. prospect.org/politics/202...

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.

“he may be a scammer but at least he’s not anti-vax” is where we are now

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

Things Democratic Senators could do that would be useful: - Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored - Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored - Boycott as a caucus until constitutional rule was restored

What the actual fuck:

Does she ever work? Where are the Epstein files? She lives on Fox every damn day. An Attorney General who spends more time on Fox than some of their hosts.

When you feel like you need to move from protesting outside of USAID to protesting outside of Chuck Schumer’s office it’s time for a change. Let’s stop playing games. Let’s be honest with each other and as a party. This is not working and it is not acceptable. And this cannot continue.

They’re dissolving all safeguards 🤷🏻‍♀️🤬🤬🤬

Mine in Iowa are REFUSING town halls

The real heroes in this fight so far have been the men and women attending those Town Hall meetings!🔥

Richest guy in the world telling us we can’t afford to have our government fund cancer research.

Why are American taxpayers going to bail out scam artists losing money in the crypto markets? We are going to borrow more money to pump it into the crypto market to enrich scammers and leeches who produce nothing of value for humanity?

He skis like shit.
