She concluded to viewers that Trump’s tariff plan came to pass through “a fake memo from a fake person with a fake email address in order to make it look like this was a serious issue being debated by real experts.”

A Russian missile strike on the Ukrainian president's hometown of Kryvyi Rih on Friday killed at least 16 people, including six children, according to Ukrainian authorities. The strike also injured over 50 people.

Trump says the crash is “to be expected” because he “inherited a terrible economy” Reality: The Economist called 🇺🇸’s economy “the envy of the world” as Biden’s term ended 👇🏽 His trade war is to blame

He’s tanking the economy, destroying our standing in the world, depriving women and LGBTQ communities of their fundamental rights, attacking the environment, disappearing legal immigrants, gutting Veteran’s benefits and Social Security. And he’s making you pay for his golf trips while he’s at it.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

Today, while the market collapsed and four soldiers who died on an exercise in Lithuania arrived at Dover, where was Donald Trump? Was he monitoring the markets? Was he there for the arrival of these heroes? Nope: he was golfing, with the Saudis

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social@ A plea from Idaho. Bernie Sanders is coming to Nampa, ID on April 14th. We would LOVE to have here as well. Can you make it? Pretty, pretty, pretty please...??? Asking for a 65 year old G-Ma (me!).

Trump is not done attacking our elections. He and his supporters plot every day to undermine the right to vote. They are constantly looking for opportunities to exploit weaknesses in the election system. This is their top priority. The question for us is whether it is ours as well.

JUST IN: A federal judge in Maryland Friday ordered the Trump administration to take immediate steps to return a Maryland man who was deported to a Salvadoran mega-prison by mistake, setting up another high-stakes clash between the White House and the courts.

“History will not forgive us for this,” Sanders said. “The time is long overdue for us to tell the Netanyahu government that we will not provide more weapons of destruction for them.” interc.pt/3FYnLWX

Breaking, per NBC News @garygrumbach.bsky.social -- Judge Paula Xinis in the District of Maryland has ruled that the United States Government must return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by April 7 at 11:59p

I don’t even think I’m exaggerating to say that if a Democratic president tanked the stock market, bragged about doing it intentionally, and then went golfing for the weekend, a mob would lynch them on the golf course.

While Lithuania’s president stood on the tarmac, Trump was busy at a donor dinner after a day on the course. I do not call that respect—I call that a disgrace.

Instead of attending a ceremony honoring 4 fallen American soldiers, Donald Trump chose to attend a LIV Golf dinner reception financed by the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia.

🌹 57 years ago today, my mother was crying in the kitchen. Next to her was a newspaper. 🌹 Martin Luther King and been shot. 🌹 I was but a lad grabbing for a lunch bag before school, but I knew of King. 🌹 My mother's eyes told me I could never know enough about this great man. 🌹 Celebrate him.

On April 2nd, 4 US Army Soldiers died in a training accident in Lithuania. 🕊️ The Lithuania Govt. showed more respect than our own govt Staff Sgt. Knutson-Collins, 28, Michigan Sgt. Duenez Jr., 25, Illinois Sgt. Franco, 25, California. Pfc. Taitano, 21, Guam. Much Respect 🙏🏻 🇺🇸 #SheShed

Pentagon watchdog investigates Hegseth’s use of Signal. 💥 Investigate them all—hold them all accountable! 🔥🔥🔥 www.Newsweek.com/pentagon-wat...

cnbc front page just before 3pm on friday 4.4.25 the president himself is off to a golf event.

DOGE targeting black workers specifically it seems

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney: "If the United States no longer wants to lead, Canada will." This is what real leadership looks like.

In the ten days since Rümeysa Öztürk was detained by US ICE agents, her lawyers say their client has had three asthma attacks. During that time, ICE has not provided the detained student her inhaler, per her lawyers and three US Senators, or other medication required by law.

This is basically the same hostage situation that Trump tried to set up with Eric Adams. Adams/TikTok is legally vulnerable at all times, but Trump promises not to enforce the law as long as they do exactly what Trump wants. Not how healthy liberal democracy works. The law should be enforced.

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

Bingo

"The Elias law firm, Hillary Clinton’s lawyers in 2016, stated there would be no negotiation with Trump." www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/04/o...

Almost all NOAA Research websites that rely on cloud services - including Amazon, Google and WordPress - are poised to disappear at midnight ET Saturday after a contract was targeted for "early termination." Labs may also feel the effects. Story for @bloomberg.com (free link):

“I think we’re all familiar with the old adage, 'When the going gets tough, the tough get going to Florida for a Saudi-backed golf event'...” www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Oh, fantastic—Rubio says ‘economies aren’t crashing, markets are crashing.’ What a relief!

Every single paper in the U.S. would be excoriating a Dem President who was golfing while the stock market melted down. We all know this. The editorial boards would be screeching, state tv ie Fox would be playing NONSTOP clips, etc. etc. It's worth remembering.

"Let’s not mince words. The threat we face is vast, coordinated and dangerous." -- @laurengw.bsky.social & @maxflugrath.bsky.social

Fox removed the stock market ticker from their broadcasts.

Man it is really hard to be living in the USA right now and getting news about how South Korea deposed their president for staging a coup and then their Supreme Court just said yup, definitely the right thing to do there.

He hates the military. We are just props.

Does anyone else see the problem here? This joker apparently forgot that CONGRESS-- NOT THE PRESIDENT-- controls the purse strings! They can AND SHOULD be starting the impeachment process right now...!

(1/4) Strong leadership means taking risks and trying things - but when it doesn’t work, realising your mistake and correcting it. Quickly.

Stop calling them “tariffs”. Call them “import taxes”. The idiots will understand better

CNBC's Jim Cramer tells CNN's Erin Burnett he feels let down by the Trump tariffs, saying their implementation has been "bush league." Follow live tariff updates: cnn.it/4iWELvr

The Pentagon’s own watchdog is now investigating Pete Hegseth’s Signal chat about strikes in Yemen. Timing, weapons, classified ops—shared 30 minutes before launch. Trump fired the last IG. This one’s digging in. This scandal isn’t going away. It’s just getting started.

“It was a remarkable spectacle: Ms. Loomer, who has floated the baseless conspiracy theory that the Sept. 11 attacks were an ‘inside job’ … was apparently wielding more influence over the staff of the National Security Council than Mr. Waltz, who runs the agency.”

US Sen. Ruben Gallego—a Marine Corps Veteran who served in the Iraq War—announced he will block all of Trump’s VA nominees, “until he stops his plan to fire Veterans—Don’t screw over the people who put their lives on the line for our country.” More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/fridays-gr...

Sen. Tillis (R-N.C.) says he’s inclined to support the Grassley-Cantwell bill. Says he’s heard from constituents worried about the tariffs, esp farmers & restaurant/lodging sectors. Everyone in red states :: call your reps!!

One of the more galling aspects of the Liberation Day nonsense is that they couldn’t even find it within themselves to delay the 45% tariffs on Myanmar, which is currently dealing with an earthquake that killed more than 3,000 people and displaced countless more on Friday.
