This is "I Put Up Tariffs" 🎶- perhaps the first ever parody song (?) to make reference to the Smoot-Hawley Act of 1930. It's based on #BobMarley's legendary "I Shot the Sheriff" and sung from the point of view of #Trump, unleashing his frenzy of #tariffs on the USA & the world. youtu.be/_DyNjjSxO8s

The fight for our democracy is not coming. It is here. When I say that we have months, not a year, to save democracy, I'm talking about this coordinated, relentless legal assault on political dissent. 1/ Let me explain a few elements of Trump's plan: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/19/u...

Trump and the GOP won by promising to lower costs, shrink gov to stay out of your business. But Shriver (who has openly advocated for banning birth control after Elon Musk tweeted that bc pills “make women fat” and touting the racist “great replacement theory”)… www.cbsnews.com/detroit/news...

Worst. Episode. EVER.

Last night, Trump signed a new EO basically declaring himself king, using the Unitary Executive Theory—aka “POTUS can do whatever the fuck POTUS wants” doctrine. I didn't know much about it, but here's what I've learned so far. It’s the legal theory behind every wannabe dictator’s wet dream. 🧵

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Understand this: by trying to kill the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Elon Musk and Russ Vought are trying to make it easier for big banks to cheat you. It’s another way the Trump administration wants to reward the rich and powerful while hurting working people.

They killed off Consumer Financial Protection Bureau because it was too effective at protecting the public from unscrupulous, opportunistic conmen like Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.
