The math is simple: Trump's tax plan takes from the poor and gives to the rich. It's Robin Hood in reverse! Working families will pay more, billionaires will pay less. This is NOT what America stands for! #HealthCareCutsKill

This drives me crazy!

The plaintiff, a victim of Epstein, claims the gov't concealed its conduct for years & "At no time did the FBI or any other government entity reach out to Maria to investigate or seek to understand or resolve her claims or otherwise in any way substantively respond to her claim.

Federal officers entered Rep. Jerry Nadler’s office in Lower Manhattan on Wednesday and handcuffed and briefly detained one of his aides. The confrontation happened shortly after the aide observed federal agents detaining migrants in a public hallway outside an immigration courtroom.

WATCH: @repmoskowitz.bsky.social calls out the astounding nearly $1 BILLION (!!) for ICE employees in bonuses alone in the Republican budget. Masked anti-constitutional vigilantism pays well these days. 🇺🇸

The Trump Tariffs are hurting Texans. Trade is down, our economy is shrinking, and prices are going up at the grocery store, Walmart and many other places. I’m glad the courts stepped in.

Here’s the thing, if they are picking up folks working in the country illegally, I’m going to need to see some white guys also being arrested for employing people working illegally in the country. Otherwise, it’s just racism.

NEW: The US government has collected DNA samples from 133,000+ migrant children and teenagers and uploaded them into CODIS, a national criminal database originally built for convicted sex offenders and violent criminals, according to documents reviewed by WIRED.

It is easy to forget that when Paul Weiss and the other law firms that capitulated to Trump cut their deals they thought they would be viewed as savvy dealmakers. Now they look like craven fools and gutless cowards.

Taco would explain Trump’s bizarre shades of makeup.

The ruling from a three-judge panel at the New York-based Court of International Trade came after several lawsuits arguing that Trump has exceeded his authority.

Old: Drain the swamp. New: Pardon the swamp.

BREAKING: “Large American online platforms have become seas of racism, misogyny, antisemitism, islamophobia, and hate in all its forms.” Mark Carney is saying what U.S. leaders are too cowardly to: your tech billionaires are breeding hate for profit.

Fascism is really exhausting.

When a Government is scientifically illiterate, but doesn’t know it, then its actions (or inactions) can be a recipe for the dismantling of an informed and enlightened Democracy. #ScienceMatters
