I agree. In a functioning democracy, we would already be in the midst of an impeachment trial.

weird, what could explain this

MUST WATCH: Rep. AOC calls out Trump’s market manipulation ahead of the tariff pause. ‘It sure seemed like’ he knew exactly what he was doing when he tweeted ‘THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!’ The White House and the Republican Party are in on this scam too.

House Republicans passed their budget blueprint. If you're a billionaire, then this is great news! But if you're anybody else, they're leaving you worse off. If you don't agree with that—NOW is the time to get LOUD.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks. We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

If the US government requires passports for you to practice your rights such as voting then passports should be provided for free to all and within a reasonable timeframe by said government.

The criminal who is now ruining our economy would not even be able to obtain a job as a bank teller... because he is a convicted felon, for numerous financial crimes.

Exactly, fraudulent asshole.

www.motherjones.com/politics/202... They are stacking these shit birds deep.

One is made a national story every single week and the other is shhhhh.....

This is an extremely important ruling from a TRUMP-APPOINTED JUGE, clearly blocking all deportations without due process from the Southern District of Texas. Now the Trump Administration must actually comply. apnews.com/article/trum...

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

These words by Justice Sotomayor are ringing some serious alarm bells that should not be taken lightly. The implications impact us all. www.scotusblog.com/2025/04/supr...

one of my tiktok followers made this

WASHINGTON (AP) — AP wins reinstatement to White House events after judge rules government can’t bar its journalists, citing 1st Amendment.

All of this could have been avoided if enough people had just decided to vote for a competent Black Indian woman. Racism...the downfall of America.

“So, while Trump’s meme coin may seem like some silly, hard-to-understand online fad, it could end up being the most insidious tools of corruption in the history of the presidency. The whole scheme is akin to Trump posting his Venmo or CashApp handle and inviting…” bribes.

The fight for our democracy is not coming. It is here. When I say that we have months, not a year, to save democracy, I'm talking about this coordinated, relentless legal assault on political dissent. 1/ Let me explain a few elements of Trump's plan: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/19/u...

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

COVID didn't "turn out fine." Over 1 million people died in just the US. People are still dying. 100s of thousands of people are still dealing with the effects of Long COVID. And the entire country lost its shit and is still unwell. Tariffs will not "turn out fine." Effects will be experienced.

The irony of Elon accusing everyone under the sun of profiting from some nebulous slush fund is that he himself is the recipient of $38 billion in government handouts.

The Supreme Court was our last shred of democracy, hanging on by a thread. If they’re bending over backwards for daddy Trump, we’re fucked beyond repair.

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.

Well this seems like a fantastic plan. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/h...
