Congress Do Something!

Horrifying

JPMORGAN: “.. the same shock we believe is more likely than not to push the US .. into recession later this year, is also likely driving a boost in goods .. “.. a complete reversal of tariffs (which is extremely unlikely) would still result in a significant pull-back .. in the coming months ..”

Abrego Garcia - proof of life? I know nothing about this man but he deserves due process.

Shake alert worked really well!

Selma. The Trump administration pulled funding meant for Selma’s schools, along with $5 million in additional funding for a statewide reading program. www.al.com/educationlab...

Harvard redid its whole homepage to push back against the administration’s demands. I mean, this is just a website but I think it’s kind of a great PR move: www.harvard.edu

NYT page one: @nytimes.com

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett speaks the truth! Things are so screwed, but there's a lot of folks "whistling past the graveyard" (looking at you, "big media", reporting the nutty developments as "news" and not questioning them in public). Good for her for speaking up.👍

We are so lucky with the weather right now. #socal

What’s DOGE cutting from the Social Security Administration? My @housedemocrats.bsky.social colleagues and I wrote a letter to the Acting Commissioner demanding answers. His response? Leases. That leaves high-rent areas like LA vulnerable to office closures—it’s time to fight back.

Spring has sprung! 💐

Welcome to the dumbest administration

Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI. “Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.

Tax cuts for billionaires aren't free. They're paid for by the rest of us. Higher taxes. Fewer services. All to give the richest among us more money that they do not need.

Tim Walz: "It's not a 'woke policy' to provide food for children to get breakfast and lunch, and we get better outcomes from that. They defined things on their terms that weren't true ... we got timid."

Tonight, Democrats forced a vote on a simple amendment. To remove new tariffs that are increasing the cost of groceries, gas and housing. Republicans rejected it.

Golf instead of honoring our fallen American soldiers. The President’s disrespect for our men & women in uniform hits a new low. Despicable.

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

He wants anarchy

That was some Minnesota style thunder! ⚡️

💥 NEW by me: Levi's Board of Directors defends DEI, tells shareholders to vote on April 23. Levi's Board: “we believe in the strong business case for a diverse and inclusive workforce... it is a competitive advantage and serves as a driver of business results.” www.thequeenzone.com/levis-shareh...

Tarrible!

"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

Pushback works, part gazillion: "Here are the facts: DOGE moved forward with plans to close multiple field offices. Then, without public notice or explanation, they reversed their plans. Now they are trying to pretend like they were never planning to close the offices." popular.info/p/how-the-so...

Sen. Booker speaking truth to power. Prices on gasoline, foods, all goods will continue to rise. Deficit going up, not down.

Since January, SpaceX has received over $560 million in government contracts—an amount projected to surpass $2 billion in taxpayer funding by year’s end, averaging roughly $6.1 million per day. Follow the money and see where it goes.

Pete couldn't be more right ##USDemocracy

You use the officials USGovt secure channels to hide communications from bad actors. You use Signal to hide communications from the USGovt.

Last week, Trump revoked a policy prohibiting federal contractors from having segregated facilities. Today, Republicans are opposing my amendment to ban segregation. They literally want to take America back to Jim Crow. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2WbyXJK/

Equal work deserves equal pay. In America, the gender wage gap has widened to 75 cents on the dollar. And it’s even worse for women of color. It’s time to do the right thing and ensure fair pay for all.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth should resign. He recklessly texted operational details of military strikes to a journalist, endangering the lives of American troops and our national security.

The White House is saying the information shared in the Signal group chat was “not classified.” They’re lying. Those who’ve served in uniform know it would’ve been classified. We’re calling for an investigation and accountability.

Pete Hegseth never should have been tapped for this job. It's too important. He should be fired immediately.

I'm not saying anything novel here but it really is just truly despicable to watch them use THEIR OWN COLOSSAL SCREW UP to slander the reporter THEY INCLUDED ON THEIR CLASSIFIED GROUP CHAT

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

How many Signal chats with sensitive information about military operations are ongoing within the Pentagon right now? Where else are war plans being shared with such abject disregard for our national security? We need answers. Right now.

Is it at all surprising that a convicted felon would ignore a judge's order?
