Phang: And listen, he’s got a beefy lawsuit here. You can imagine what discovery is going to be like once this case moves forward—because it will. It will not be dismissed…

"As natural catastrophe losses escalate, insurers and large enterprises are facing a critical point: Can their risk models evolve fast enough to keep up with the accelerating economic volatility of the climate?"

Trump's tariffs, tax cuts, and austerity budget are a windfall for the super-rich at the expense of the poor. This is what class warfare looks like. [Via @4taxfairness.bsky.social‬]

CBO is out with its final cost estimate of the tax-and-spending bill passed by the House. - Revenue ⬇️ by $3.7 trillion over 10 years - Spending ⬇️ by $1.3 trillion - Debt ⬆️ by $2.4 trillion over 10 years - Uninsured pop. ⬆️ by 10.9 million in 2034 Full analysis: www.cbo.gov/publication/...

No more rich in the Whitehouse. Every day working class so they understand what the working class are struggling with.

Moskowitz: "Nothing has been made more efficient. Here are the wins for congressional Rs. You ready? They're gonna do a $9b recession bill. They're gonna get rid of Elmo, which the American people were clamoring for, but they're gonna add $2.4t for the debt. And then they want us to cheer for them."

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

"If what you're doing is legitimate and lawful, why do you need to cover your face?”

Systemic protections and guardrails are essential to a functioning society. Nature understands this even if oligarchs don't.

Put Bezos in a Nazi uniform..it would fit his persona perfectly.

Pretty wild to be living in a time when humans are being forced to work in order to even be considered deserving of life or even to be considered human at all, while simultaneously human labor is being systematically eliminated from the concept of work.

Trump's DOJ has granted Boeing a non-prosecution agreement over the 737 MAX crashes, despite the company's repeated attempts to deceive regulators.  Boeing donated $1M to Trump's inauguration and has paid AG Pam Bondi's former lobbying firm at least $480K. Follow the money.

This is a true Christian..

The core purpose of right wing dog whistling has always been to destroy the sense there can ever be an "us," a 'we the people' that merits collective social welfare, i.e. government. Lee Atwater told us this explicitly in his "Southern Strategy" for Nixon.

Oh I get it now!! 🤣

Not a coincidence.

When a person from "foreign lands" writes better English than a phatphuk moron in the Wytehouse. And shows more grace, courage, honor & fortitude recognizing the sacrifices of US soldiers. He's seen it first-hand with Ukrainian soldiers for so long. Thank you, Pres. Zelenskyy! 🇺🇸🇺🇦. Praying for peace🙏

So let me get this straight: the "party of the working class" is kicking millions of people off health care to fund tax cuts that disproportionately benefit the rich?

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨 Last night, Elon Musk announced the plan to ELIMINATE Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. How do we stop him? MASSIVE PUBLIC OUTRAGE. Share this with everyone you know!

@democracydocket.com My condolences on the passing of Bode. I know how heartbreaking it is. I had my cat for 17 years. She is always in my heart.

‼️‼️

Sooo. Apparently that asshole has been using the threat of tariffs to extort countries into cutting massive deals with Felon’s companies. And why not? He got away with extortion last time thanks to Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland.

Why is this woman, Jessica Denson the only person speaking substantively about the unconstitutional predicament we're in & that trump is an illegitimate & disqualified president? Democrats and neoliberals going along to get along are showing how vapid & impotent their beliefs and misuse of power is

If you cut Medicaid, and you cut people off of Medicaid, they're not going to stop having health care needs. Medicaid provides critical financial support for the health care sector. www.wenatcheeworld.com/news/local/m...

It’s so fascinating to watch. How one man can sow such destruction. How one very bad, stupid, ignorant, cruel, dishonest, and psychopathic man can/will ruin and destroy so many lives. But here’s the thing. None of this is a surprise. Every single voter knew exactly who he was.
