It’s a dangerous national security threat to have an unstable South African with a heavy drug problem playing a critical role in America’s national defense. The solution: Nationalize Starlink and SpaceX. Trump Is Right: Elon Is Crazy substack.com/@stuartsteve...

Trump's Cabinet of millionaires and billionaires is not looking out for us. #TaxTheRich

Happy ANTIFA Day to those who celebrate.

If the meltdown between the president and his "first buddy" didn't make you think that billionaires should have to pay their fair share of taxes so they can't buy elections, we don't know what else to tell you...

Between the Elon Trump fallout and 30 percent of dead Russian bombers this is shaping up to be a pretty nice little week

Elon Musk retaliates against Donald Trump and calls him ungrateful. “Without me he would have lost the election!”

Hundreds of men are sitting in an El Salvadorian prison widely known for torturing people. The Trump administration cannot disappear people without due process. They cannot use American taxpayer dollars to outsource human rights violations. We will see them in court.

There’s another scandal buried in the Trump-Republican budget plan that’s not getting enough attention: massive giveaways to Big Oil.

There. Is. No. Trade deal

This is the exact kind of proactive legislating the Dems should be prepared to practice every day. Do something.

“He’s not a strongman. He’s not even a leader. He’s a man throwing a tantrum because the world won’t revolve around him.” Trump’s allies are turning on him—Musk, Barrett, Powell—and he’s losing his grip. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/trumps-emp...

Elon cited irreconcilable budget differences.

I won't ever forget 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Oligarchs are addicted to greed. In 1982, there were just 13 US billionaires worth $14 billion. Today, while 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, there are 903 US billionaires worth $6.8 trillion. Enough is enough. We need an economy that works for all, not just the top 1%.

All this to cut taxes for billionaires. apnews.com/article/cbo-...

The #MAGAMurderBudget is going to kill people.

83 million Americans get health care through Medicaid.

Apparently the bill cutting Medicaid and SNAP to fund billionaire tax breaks would lead to 4% FEWER household resources for the poorest Americans. The richest 10% would see an INCREASE in resources. They're not trying to fix the economy for us. They're trying to steal from us.

BREAKING: Over 130 former federal & state judges have filed an amicus brief urging the court to drop charges against Judge Dugan in Wisconsin The charges seek to criminalize judicial discretion & set a dangerous precedent for executive overreach We MUST defend judicial independence👇

Here’s the Democrat running against Joni Ernst! Please give him a follow and your support. Let’s get Ernst out of Congress! @sageforiowa.bsky.social

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...

A recent report found that Elon Musk faced at least $2.37B in potential legal liability from 11 fed agencies as of Inauguration Day. As he exits, these agencies are still on DOGE's chopping block or have dropped investigations into his corporations. See what this was about?

It’s TACO Thursday. Who does Trump cave to today?

Since none of the MFers have ever served anything but themselves, sacrifice and dedication is a hard dose of reality.

Republicans’ budget bill earmarks a staggering $45 billion for immigrant detention centers. The biggest beneficiaries? Private prison companies like CoreCivic and GEO Group – who both donated hefty sums to Trump’s inauguration. Always follow the money.

Casar: "The only way to push back on this is for Democrats to be really clear that if we win back a majority, we aren't just going to let bygones be bygones. We have to go and investigate who paid Trump, who paid Musk, who made money off of these pardons because that is really serious."

Oh for the good old days when every editorial board in America LOUDLY demanded the Clintons shut down their charitable organization for fear it would be used to curry favor w/Hillary if she became President 🙃

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice. Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice. Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice. Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP are choosing to do this.

Trump erupted when questioned about a luxury jet gifted by Qatar, an ethically dubious move possibly tied to diplomatic favors. We break it down.

A coalition of 27 Senate Democrats have already introduced a resolution condemning the transfer. But as Ryan Goodman of Just Security argued this week, that may be approaching the problem from the wrong end.

As I often said to friends who backed Trump in 2024 for pro-Israel reasons ... Trump has broken faith with everyone else on this earth fool enough to trust him, wives, creditors, everyone. Why do you imagine you'll be any different?

First they came after the law firms And I said nothing Then they came after universities And I said nothing Then they came after nonprofits And I said nothing. Then they disappeared students who they disagreed with And I said nothing Then they came after me.

The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc. And get the money out

Growing up, my family relied on Medicaid and SNAP when times got tough. Republicans plan to cut those essential lifelines in order to give tax cuts to billionaires. They don’t care about you.

NYTimes citing StopAntisemitism is no different than if they had cited the KKK as a civil rights org. Truly sickening they’re legitimizing this hate group. @marcatracy.bsky.social do you even know the background of this group beyond your cursory description of their funders?

Republicans want to give the Trump Administration unrestrained authority to strip tax-exempt status from any non-profit organization without due process, essentially giving them the power to shut down organizations they disagree with. This is beyond dangerous.
