More in No, Other People: New poll: “America would be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.” • 80% of Americans agree • 20% disagree “I would be better off if I worked in a factory.” • 25% of Americans agree • 73% disagree • 2% currently work in a factory

Requiring REAL IDs and passports and birth certificates to vote?!? Imagine if these were required to buy a gun.

I hope so..

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

So if setting fire to a Wankpanzer sitting empty on a car lot is "terrorism," then this must be..? abcnews.go.com/Politics/ars...

Today in California. They truly care…

If torching a Swastikar is considered terrorism now, surely torching Josh Shapiro’s home will be considered the same.

While Russia bombs Ukraine and 34 people die, Trump unveils a monument to himself at his own golf club

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

Eugenicists are so stupid.

You can tell what Bernie is doing is working because it’s making the New York post furious

The scenes out of Sumy are truly horrific. Two ballistic missiles into the heart of the city killed 31 civilians and 80+ wounded more on Palm Sunday. Unforgivable.

Enjoy. 😎✨

Make it make sense

A Vice Admiral of the Navy was fired this weekend. Her crime? Not posting photos of a Russian asset and a Fox News host at NATO Headquarters. A 38 year veteran who refused to roll over for Krasnov and his goons. Well done, ma'am. mustreadalaska.com/navy-vice-ad...

From our Treasury: “We’re moving from the hard currency of pebbles to the 21st century of currency known as “Cryo-currency”. We will be releasing a Gov supported memechunk of ice, which may become valuable, or may melt tomorrow. It’s really an exciting gamble that’s sure to pay off for a few of us.”

Are we “Great” yet?

“.. Carney didn’t need to shout. .. He lined up the free world—Japan, the EU, Canada in lockstep—and showed Trump the cliff’s edge. .. “.. Little triggers and strategies you get when the world’s most respected economist is your PM.” @deanblundell.bsky.social 🇨🇦 open.substack.com/pub/deanblun...

There’s a special place in HELL for anyone who stands before the Supreme Court and argues that a man they wrongfully sent to an El Salvadorian death camp should stay there.

President Trump is using the Abrego Garcia case to establish a truly chilling proposition: that no one can stop him from imprisoning anyone he wants anywhere else in the world never to be seen or heard from again. His dream is to preside over a police state. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/09/o...

Good way to see the current tariffs, as of literally today, is no tariffs on high value add manufactured goods marketed to middle and upper middle classes. Massive tariffs for cheap consumer items which amount to the biggest economic privilege of working class/middle class life in US.

A very, very good question.

I had a good friend who’s fiancé got viral pneumonia. Great shape. He died at 27. I had a cousin. Not an athlete but not overweight or in bad health either. He died of COVID at 40.

The Constitutional crisis all Americans fear is here. A battle between the executive and judicial branches is underway. The Trump regime defiantly refused to meet another court-issued deadline in the case of Kilmar Abrego García. Dismissed was a federal judge’s deadline to disclose steps…

Climate experts expressed shock and dismay at the move. “It would be a bit like unplugging the equipment that monitors the vital signs of a patient that is critically ill,” one said. By @fastlerner.bsky.social
