WSJ: The 19 richest U.S. households saw a $1 trillion wealth increase in 2024, a rise that exceeds the size of Switzerland’s economy. @mikezaccardi.bsky.social

"What's to stop a foreign government, eager to bribe the American president, from quietly dumping money into Trump’s crypto project, effectively making direct payments to the president without public disclosure? Nothing." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

A disgusting new level of propaganda. Karoline Leavitt wasted taxpayer dollars plastering mug shots across the White House lawn — like trophies. Lies. Fear. Dehumanization. All to distract us from their own failures.

Germans are trolling Trump

(Bloomberg) - President Xi Jinping’s diplomats are fanning out across the world with a clear message for countries cutting deals with Donald Trump: The US is a bully that can’t be trusted. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Breaking news: New civil rights division chief said more than 100 attorneys have left their jobs, in many cases because they disagreed with the office’s new focus on combating anti-Christian bias, transgender athletes in women’s sports, and “woke ideology.”

JPMORGAN: “.. the clock is ticking on hard data resilience. A worrying decoupling of US-China trade in response to 145% tariff rates imposed earlier this month now looks to be underway, and we expect the damage to build in coming weeks and months.” 👀 #SummerOfScarcity 🇺🇸

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises. But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up. It's up to us to demand something better.

💔 for my children: “The Trump administration has dismissed the hundreds of scientists and experts who had been compiling the federal government’s flagship report on how global warming is affecting the country.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/28/c...

According to Kash Patel’s own financial disclosure statement, he pocketed $25,000 from a production company operated by a filmmaker associated with a Kremlin-subsidized propaganda project, a pro-Putin oligarch, and a pro-Kremlin disinformation agent. @davidcorn.bsky.social's NEW video explains:

“.. ‘No way we can make up for the 30-60% lost volumes from China [via other countries] due to the tariffs,’ said Miller. .. ‘Unless the 145% China tariffs are dropped very soon (e.g., this week), I don’t see how this scenario is avoided.’” www.freightwaves.com/news/no-way-...

Trump is celebrating 100 days in Michigan tonight while the economy falters under his policies. Michigan deserves better. America deserves better. youtu.be/ywF7rakiF1I?...

CHINA FOREIGN MINISTRY SPOX: "Let me make it clear one more time that China and the U.S. are not engaged in any consultation or negotiation on tariffs." @cnbc.com www.cnbc.com/2025/04/28/t...

Congress is back in session today. We will PRESS ON to save Medicaid and defeat the extreme Republican budget.

GALLUP: “.. Most U.S. adults, 89%, think the tariffs are likely to result in higher prices on the products they buy .. “.. Americans have little appetite for long-term disruption to the U.S. economy before they see any economic benefits from the higher tariffs.” news.gallup.com/poll/660002/...

".. accuses Elon Musk of using his perch on DOGE to 'evade oversight, derail investigations, and make litigation disappear whenever he so chooses—on his terms and at his command.'" @cnbc.com #OligarchEra www.cnbc.com/2025/04/28/e...

Our neighbor to the North is lead by a brilliant economist, who is tough, but fair and decent. Our neighbor to the South is lead by a brilliant engineer, who is tough, but fair and decent. We are run by a total ignoramus who is flawed in every way a human being can be & is destroying our country.

Sorry Donald but Canada has standards. We don't elect men who are criminals and convicted perverts. Canada has this. Now piss off. abcnews.go.com/Politics/tru...

“‘How does this person qualify as sane?’ a woman shouts at Republican Rep. Michael Baumgartner in Spokane, Washington. ‘Why is he not being impeached right now?’”

“Unleashing” has a really bad sound to it in this context; as in, unleashing from the Constitution. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com: Donald Trump is now America's biggest loser in the history of presidents' first 100 days youtu.be/CpCtY0JQvjs?...

This is who Trup wants to “unleash”: “‘We have seen, anecdotally ... a shocking number of wrong-house raids where the police just go to the wrong address," he [a lawyer] added.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

“When Beck asked Dhillon about the “bloodbath” allegations, she responded that she told Civil Rights Division employees that “These are the president’s priorities, this is what we will be focusing on, govern yourself accordingly.” open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

The Dallas Fed survey basically just rains fire at this point. 🔥

Some business stories won’t get covered because there’s no ticker, no stock symbol. But as $UPS reminds us ..

PUNCHBOWL: “.. The shopping site will display how much of an item’s cost is derived from tariffs – right next to the product’s total listed price.” $AMZN punchbowl.news/archive/4292...

Leave it to Donald Trump to try to figure out a way around the Supreme Court’s decision on presidential criminal immunity. If anybody could do it, I’m confident he could and would.

Worst Dallas Fed manufacturing survey since 2020: New orders collapse. Prices paid soars.

We are the STORM....

Trump hits his 100-day mark and all he does is “win, win, win”… you check the auto layoffs, your investments, or your bank account. youtube.com/shorts/ywYV7...

My takeaway from this: He is so fucked.

TELSEY begins tracking price increases over the past week. Some highlights: * Abercrombie jeans: up 33% * Amazon Echo: up 38.5% * Target / Barbie doll: up 42.9%

From the Dallas Fed manufacturing survey "If we want to bring manufacturing back to the U.S., can we try not to kill the companies that can actually help do that before we get the chance?"

One hallmark of being an American is that you do not have to fear your government. If Trump’s first 100 days in office have changed anything, it’s that. He has subverted one of the major accomplishments of the Founding Fathers.

Powerful CEOs groveling for favors. A throne room disguised as the Oval Office. America was built to escape monarchy — but here we are. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/the-court-...

Went live on Substack to discuss the CORRUPTION all over the administration and other things. Take a look! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/live-with-...

Canadian Voter: I think who I voted for would be the best to take care of Trump, because Trump is, I’m sorry to say, an asshole.

“'100 Days of Destruction': Top Historian on Trump's Presidency So Far” Writing for Zeteo, Princeton's @zelizer.bsky.social explains how past US presidents used their first 100 days to build, while Trump has used his to dismantle, intimidate, and destroy. Read/share/subscribe:

An Executive Order signed in mid-March ordered the shut down of the Institute of Museum and Library Services, a federal agency with about 70 employees which provides funding for public libraries in every single state and territory. Publishers are foghting back. www.msnbc.com/ali-velshi/w...
