Telsa stock is tanking, Trump is flip-flopping on his campaign promises (shocking, we know), JD Vance proves once again he’s only in it for himself…. and our students, veterans, environment, and democracy? Under attack. 📰💀

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

A 10% universal tariff on $3.25 trillion of annual US merchandise imports would potentially raise ~$300 billion. Last year, US personal income tax brought in nearly 30x that.

Just when you think Donald Trump cannot sink lower or be more shameful, today he's blaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelinsky a dictator, when he knows perfectly well that Putin's constant re-elections are put-up jobs.

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.

Trump's #USAID lawlessness may have broken my wife's heart, her company, and her life's work. But it has not broken her spirit. So watch out, Trump & your Nazi incels. The energy Amy brought to lifting up the world's most vulnerable will now be directed at taking down you, the world's most corrupt.

Musk destroyed Twitter as a business with his wrecking ball tactics, but turns out it was more valuable as a tool of influence than as a business, so I am sure he sees it as a huge success. Worth keeping in mind as he brings the same tactics to the US government.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are
