This is what Musk and DOGE have *actually* tried to do: -- Kill USAID (investigating Starlink) -- Kill CFPB (regulator for X to be payment app) -- Move $2.3 BILLION contract from Verizon to Starlink -- Force Social Security Administration to use X exclusively 100% CORRUPTION

36,000 people going to see Bernie Sanders on a Saturday in Los Angeles is pretty insane.

2024 Town hall Question: How do people go to Congress and become multimillionaires.. Greene: I do not know. I haven’t found that money tree up there.. that they all seem to have.. Pelosi supposedly has some great stock tips

Seeing more and more of these bumper stickers on teslas in LA

Let these observations of Fiona Hill sink in, please! This is happening and get just a little worse every day! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8jAYYEg/

Is there any link between the Trump admin’s “deal” with El Salvador and Bukele’s plan for a “Bitcoin City,” which was going to be scaled back in order to receive loans from the IMF — and Trump admin’s plans to use gold reserves to buy Bitcoin? Or all just coincidence theweek.com/business/eco...

Well said.

Area Man Claims To Be Strongest Leader in World But Can’t Ask El Salvador a Favor

Senator Sanders and Reps. Ocasio-Cortes, Jayapal, and Khanna rising to the occasion.

Watched Bill Maher last night fawn over his dinner with Trump that was arranged by kid Rock. It was enough to make me puke. Deleted the program and will not watch anything of his again.

It’ll be a great time for a career in the trades.

this is quite the photo and caption www.nytimes.com/2025/04/12/u...

Fun fact: Trump is actually spending MORE money than Biden did. Musk and DOGE are a FRAUD — their real role is shutting down parts of the government that regulate Musk’s businesses while redirecting govt contracts to Musk and other insiders.

Measles, Vitamin A & RFK Jr.’s About-Face www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/... by @drlabos.bsky.social "The dangers of misrepresenting the science are not abstract. Real children are getting sick & dying." Vitamin A "doesn’t prevent or limit the spread of measles, and in very high doses it can be toxic."

Pierre Poilievre said 15,000 people showed up at his Edmonton rally. CBC counted 1,558. Lesson: Inflating crowd numbers is standard political strategy but it only works if you don’t get caught. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The GOP bill, a direct product of President Donald Trump’s decade-long obsession with illegal voting, would require documentary proof of citizenship for voter registration, bar states from counting late-arriving mail ballots, and dramatically infringe on states’ authority to run elections.

Imagine being a small business with debt, that you used to import products you had manufactured in china. In the time it took to make the products, tariffs were added, that more than doubled your cost. They are crushed Are there any states offering support for their businesses ?

RFK Jr's autism 'epidemic' study raises anti-vaxx fears f24.my/B5U6.X "...autism organisations, doctors & scientists rejected the idea that there is an 'autism epidemic', saying 5 months was not enough time for such a study - and this subject has already been extensively looked at."

"The president is no longer bound by law, but he is protected by laws. The same laws that now permit him to, say, instruct Seal Team Six to assassinate the chief justice, also provide for him to complete his presidential term."

When Rubio announced the agreement with El Salvador in February he touted it as a way to outsourcing the federal prison system by allowing the US to send American citizen inmates there to serve their . This undercuts the Trump administration’s claim to the courts that it can’t get people back.

LIE -- Trump claims he lowered egg prices by 79%. TRUTH -- egg prices are UP by over 50% since January.

Just for fun…

Garcia: The man can't even go and play video games anymore because the people he's playing with are harassing him. And I think that he understands that he's the most unlikable person in this country

Jeeeeeeeeeez

The government acknowledges that it ripped our client Mahmoud Khalil from his home and his family solely because of his political beliefs and expression. Ideas aren’t illegal. Mahmoud must be released.

How Trump’s Tariffs Fit the Autocrat’s Playbook [and the manosophere BS] www.newyorker.com/news/q-and-a... via @newyorker.com Müller: “…about the glorification of manufacturing and 'real men' who are in factories & produce things, tangible things. That has always been part of the Trumpist package…”

Oh look, Trump is threatening Mexico with tariffs again. At this point countries will just laugh at this ass clown. His credibility is shot. He can’t stick with tariffs because of the same domestic pressure he’s caved to 4 times already in less than 90 days. Just hollow threats.

Nobody is saying this. They have to conjure up imaginary libs to argue with since they can’t win a debate with real ones on this issue.

But our Transportation Secretary was doing Newsmax interviews yesterday about Trump’s policy on shower heads and dishwashers.

He was 3 months ago. Now he wants to act like he’s his adversary because Trump screwed him and crushed his poll numbers with tariffs.

The majority of people at that table hate Howard Lutnick.

This is sad, and troubling. Trump has also gone after the American Bar Association via DOJ. How, in the long run, are these “deals” going to impact the rule of law. Not well! These firms are agreeing to his clearly unconstitutional shakedowns. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/u...

That’s right. That all went down yesterday morning. Thanks for getting caught up.

Crockett: Like the fact that they sat around called Joe Biden sleepy Joe Biden. And as I said before, at least you could sleep at night because you didn't have to worry about your 401 K disappearing.

She's the real danger here.

The modern Republican Party is not going to do anything to improve your life. They’re going to lie, cheat, and steal, and put money in the pockets of corrupt billionaires like Trump and Musk. Democrats aren’t perfect, and we make a lot of mistakes, but at least we’re fucking trying to help people.

It's long past time to ban insider trading in Congress.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.
