@warren.senate.gov: "This is the Trump administration. Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous for the billionaires. Billionaires win and everybody else loses. And they laugh about it."

@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."

Trump just denied North Carolina’s request for FEMA relief from Hurricane Helene, calling it “unwarranted.”

🚨BREAKING: North Carolina Supreme Court rejects Republican effort to disqualify more than 60,000 votes in close judicial election. However, GOP dominated court rules 4-2 that several thousand other ballots must be "cured" to be counted. Democratic candidate will continue legal fight in Fed court.

@booker.senate.gov: "Are we a nation that is going to tolerate this, or a nation that's going to stand up? As the great Frederick Douglass said, 'the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the people that they seek to oppress.' How much will we endure before we say enough is enough?"

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Trump is preparing to defund Maine’s public schools after he demanded a “full throated apology” from their governor for not obeying him and she is refusing to do so.

Trump has just replaced President Obama’s official presidential portrait in the White House with a painting of himself.

Hope this helps.

All this fRaUd and still not a single lawsuit. Weird, huh?

Mike Johnson just voted to cut Medicaid. Nearly 40% of his district relies on Medicaid.

Breaking: A helicopter has crashed into the Hudson River in New York City. At least four people were on board and fatalities are reported.

The European Union and China are now starting negotiations to abolish EU tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles. This is a major strategic failure for the United States.

Less than a day apart.

The US Economic Policy Uncertainty Index just hit such a historic high under Trump that it’s literally exploding off the chart.

“ThE wOrLd WiLL rEsPeCt uS AgAiN”

One day apart.

"She's a supermodel but she lives in Canada."

All this "fraud" and yet still not a single fraud charge filed.

"The hypocrisy is really laughable. When you talk about the specific war planning, you have individuals in armed services whose families won't even mention where they're posted out of their own safety. But we have the highest individuals in our intelligence community putting that stuff on a chat."

Former FBI agent John Sullivan: "Chris Wray identified domestic terrorism as the number one threat facing Americans... Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, under Trump's direction, have actually lessened the personnel size of that team.... You are being made less safe by the choices that are being made."

Trump’s approval among 18-29 year olds has gone from +5 to -29 👀

Insurrection Barbie doesn’t seem to be familiar with how mail works.

Many of Trump’s top supporters who helped him win last year are now attacking him over his tariff policy, including Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, Dave Portnoy, and Bill Ackman. “We are heading for a self-induced, economic nuclear winter.”

“I’m very very worried about what it means for democracy if Republicans are just able to outright steal a state supreme court election in North Carolina” I told @briantylercohen.bsky.social. “What happens in North Carolina won’t stop there” www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSQU...

POV: you’re a puppy

🚨 In one of the first national polls (per @dataforprogress.org & @boldprogressives.org) conducted since Trump's tariff announcement: By a 2 to 1 (60% to 31%) margin, independents say Trump’s tariffs will hurt Americans -- and 55% of overall voters agree.

Trump has now officially wiped out an entire YEAR of economic gains in four days. But hey, egg prices right?

Nice try.

Elon Musk and Trump’s tariff advisor Peter Navarro are now fighting publicly, with Navarro attacking Tesla and Musk calling Navarro a “moron” who’s “dumber than a sack of bricks.”

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.

Breaking: Sen. Richard Blumenthal says he plans to place a hold on ALL Trump nominees going forward. This will force Republicans to hold individual votes to override each hold, which will severely slow down their agenda. 🔗: www.axios.com/newsletters/...

"Trump was so certain that every other world leader would capitulate because he has such a distorted perception of how people act, in that he is surrounded by the most groveling, sycophantic, obsequious hangers-on with their mouths latched onto his ass."

Now do Trump.

Over $10 trillion.

One month apart.

Trump just threatened to impose an additional 50 percent tariff on all imports from China. This comes as the economy crashes nationwide because of his tariffs.

Exactly this. We are the pawns in this “chess game”.

Yes but you see the price of eggs was up one entire dollar so what choice did we have
