The USG gets $5m but Trump gets much larger bribes or ownership stakes in their companies. Like Russia. My guess is $50m to him personally, maybe $100m.

I wrote about the very violent, very public detention of a woman for interrupting a speaker at the Kootenai County Republican’s town hall on Saturday. In Idaho, the lines between Republican politics and political violence are thinner than they are in some places; this is a terrifying escalation.

AOC: The order has come down to this committee. Find $880 billion to pay for a tax cuts on yachts, jets, billionaires, and mega corporations while working class people pay higher tax rates than Facebook does. Undocumented immigrants pay more in taxes than many large corporations

Republicans just voted to take your money and give it to billionaires. It’s not enough that House Republicans are enabling Trump and Elon Musk’s outrageous power grab. Now they’re selling out everyday Americans so that Trump, Musk, and their billionaire allies can get even richer.

When I went to Congress as a Republican a few years back, I figured out in about one afternoon that Republicans don’t give a shit about the debt & deficits. 💯 this.👇

Note here that Musk is now literally assigning himself new contracts based on the use of his DOGE wrecking crew and the associated micro-bros. this isn't a "conflict of interest". it's just handing yourself federal money www.cnn.com/2025/02/25/b...

@housedemocrats.bsky.social did everything in their power to stop House Republicans from stealing from sick children for the billionaire tax cuts but fell short because every single House Republican is in the fascist felon’s pocket. #DontCutMyMedicaid #SaveMedicaid #MOMSky

My latest: "This is How Musk and the Broligarchy Are Trying to Steal the Wisconsin Supreme Court" All eyes should be on Wisconsin as Musk is spending millions to buy a pivotal Supreme Court seat & test a MAGA strategy to capture state courts across the nation. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

Zero Democratic votes for the Republican budget made to cut programs like Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, and food stamps to pay for billionaire tax cuts. Reject being the minority, embrace being the opposition!

This narrative is getting real old. We successfully got Trump out of office. It was Dem leadership’s job to hold him accountable for his crimes so that he could not rebuild for 2024

Remember when the WH insisted that global HIV prevention & treatment was exempt from the freeze? When it seemed MAYBE they understood that cutting off medicine could put the entire planet at risk of drug resistant HIV strains? Wrong. Elon Musk’s interns were simply shutting payments off manually.

LOCALLY: Options to rent or buy alternative spaces (ie abandoned schools vs. tearing them down which costs & to do) need to be more widely considered. In addition, more price gouging regulations need put into place to stop rental companies & landlords from profiting off natural disaster events.

Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.

Just as I predicted, once no other media organization stood with AP (other than issuing statements) this was the next step. And when you bow down to this, there will be another step taken to erode press freedoms. If you don’t fight for your rights, you lose them. Started / Going

The other Five Eyes nations would be insane to share vital intel with the US now that it is a Russian ally, has intel risks throughout the admin and the president has a track record of mishandling classified info. And here’s the thing: They know it and will withhold key info. As they should.

New York's (de)congestion pricing, which charges $9 to drive into Manhattan below 60 St, has reduced traffic, increased ridership, reduced subway crime, and is raising funds to fix the decaying transit system. Rare for a public policy to have this many benefits!
