@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

Using their own words against them.

Forgive the rant, but what the hell is this Administration doing?  Not gonna be easy to undo the damage, folks. But I’ve got some ideas on where to start.

Thank you for all the kind notes about my piece this morning. Happy Passover.

Good morning everyone Tomorrow Night Congressman Juan Ciscomoni refuses to have a TownHall !! Tucson will host our OWN with these great people Senator MARK KELLY Congressman Greg Stanton Mayor Regina Romero Senator CORY BOOKER And My SHERO GABBY GIFFORDS This is how it's done

The Social Security Administration is now wrongly informing some SSI recipients they are no longer receiving benefits. This comes as agency cuts have led to repeated website crashes and overwhelmed phone lines.  This is what DOGE's "efficiency" looks like.

Trump has cut the part of the FDA that notifies doctors and the public when there is a safety problem with a drug or a medical device. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

Veterans getting fired, social security is at risk, and Elon is telling you what you don’t need in govt, all while he just got a $6billion space x contract today! He makes money on you!

GO @mcuban.bsky.social! 👊🏼 Mocks DOGE: “End telephone support for Social Security, cut dozens of SS offices and make Grandma and Grandpa finally get online to confirm their payments. What an amazing back door way to cut payments! Gonna be some upset seniors at town halls!” #Donaldtrump #Markcuban

China is daring Trump to do what he promised yesterday. I still believe he is going to find some way not to do this, but we will soon find out. He promised it explicitly in writing.

Holy shit !! That gauche POS paired the Oval Office with gold highlights???

Social Security WORKS because over 99% of all payments are made accurately and on time.

He appears to be suggesting here that Nazis winked at prisoners in concentration camps and slipped them snacks to “show love.”

DOGE cutting veteran services while Trump spends a hundred million on his birthday parade. Almost as cool as golfing through a market panic.

I didn’t want this to happen. I voted for the smart black lady.

Last night I wrote about Abrego Garcia’s case. Today, SCOTUS confirmed it’s true. Even though their stay is just temporary, he remains in cruel & unusual conditions in a foreign prison with no recourse. It could happen to any of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

Luckily, the President is also determined to crash the global economy because he’s so stupid

My goodness.

"So Trump will impose these tariffs and sit back and wait for other world leaders to petition the king with their offerings that will ultimately expand his own power, all the while we are the collateral damage. We all get thrown under the bus; 350 million people suffer so that one man can benefit."

In just two months, DOGE has —lost— the government an estimated half a trillion dollars. I propose that Musk pay it back personally.

Tim nailed it 🔨

If We Don't Comply: Eric Trump's exact words if we don't Comply: "Trust Me, We Can, and We Will, Do So Much Worse"
