🤣🤣🤣🤣 I would say unbelievable, but it’s completely believable. According to Trump, January 2024--when Biden was in office—was Trump’s market. Meanwhile, April 2025—while Trump is in office—that’s Biden’s stock market. Some idiot is going to say this makes sense, too.

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

What some people aren’t factoring into their analysis is the reality that companies were buying tons of inventory to beat the tariffs. That’s cash taken from being able to invest or hire. In fact the probably cut costs and jobs as a result. #econsky

In fact, it is offensively ridiculous to think that any but a handful of people disappeared by ICE will be able to file habeas corpus, because it relies on them having informed families with connections to available knowledgeable lawyers with time and resources to act instantly.

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this: Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius. If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

What makes this visual even more stunning is that it was made possible by people who said their #1 concern when voting was the economy. What idiots.

I was at one of those protests the @nytimes.com is writing about here & can say from first hand experience that people were bemoaning everything Trump & Musk but NOT 'the lack of strong opposition.' Good freaking grief. Do journalism & talk to some of us, please. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/05/u...
