Who will stop Donald Trump’s drive for unchecked power? economist.com/united-state... from The Economist

Remember, to throughly cook all meat products, for safety’s sake…👇 Enjoy. 😎✨

I am so looking forward to all the “personal liberties and free markets” masthead editorials at @washingtonpost.com condemning this state attack on free speech and free enterprise!!

BOYCOTT PARAMOUNT #resist #disrupt

This is chilling!!! Trump gave the Pentagon control of 170 square miles of U.S. land—now a militarized zone called the “New Mexico National Defense Area.” This move walks the line of Posse Comitatus and edges toward the Insurrection Act—to go after migrants. But it doesn’t have to stop there.

The tariffs were enacted for a survival-of-the-fittest shake down, so that any small businesses that survived COVID, will die and only the big businesses will survive.

Not sure how the Amazon API works but someone should create a plugin for Amazon that can show you the Tariff tax that Amazon is too afraid to publish.

It’s wildly insufficient to call Trump the most corrupt president in U.S. history. It’s more correct to say he’s a convicted criminal running a criminal operation from the White House, with “corruption” being a term reserved for actual presidents.

Seems not great www.wsj.com/business/ear...

Impeach him spinless Congress!

Spent the last week holding town halls in deeply rural and red parts of Oregon. The message is clear: people are scared and angry, not knowing if their way of life will be next on Trump’s chopping block. Trump is losing support and trust across the country.

The Canadian election result shows that the 2024 US election might have gone very differently if American voters could somehow have known in advance what it would be like to have Donald Trump as president

President Trump 2.0 has openly committed more impeachable abuses of power than all prior presidents combined, including Trump 1.0. The question isn’t whether he should be impeached, convicted, and removed from office but whether Republicans have the guts to do their job. www.cnn.com/2025/04/25/p...

Take a minute from your day and read this chilling story about how quickly we've gotten to where we are.

Let us be clear: Due process is not an option, it's a right. And we'll defend it.

But the “good news” is they will all be speaking English. Like I give a fuck.

Speaking to NPR in his first media interview since his detention, lawful permanent U.S. resident Mohsen Mahdawi finds peace in meditation and hopes "America will fulfill its promise."

Pee-Wee German pretending a 4-year-old was kidnapped and trafficked out of the country without her cancer medications as a *favor* to her mother. What a vile monster.

I’m calling it the No-plan-demic.

Bezos is a pussy who sold out his customers for his orange daddy.

Exactly 💯

Who hid Americans during the 1979 hostage crisis? Canada. 🇨🇦 👊🏻

there it is

Remember when that super smart brown lady was going to pass an anti-gouging law and people mocked her? There's gonna be a shit-ton of gouging in the weeks ahead.

These shelves will become increasingly empty, and the prices on what does remain will surge. Consumer confidence will plummet to depths never experienced in our lifetimes. Expect a long, long period of economic pain and suffering. Expect recession, or worse — stagflation.

Congratulations Bruce Fanjoy!

Dimon in January on tariffs - “get over it”

we need to think of 'abolishing ICE' as like 'abolishing the Wehrmacht.' Germany still needed an army. Americans will still want some kind of immigration and border authorities. But abolishing the culture, structures, and power-holders of a utterly corrupted and brutal system is important.

Surely this isn't the marker we use for what is considered a "good" and "normal" presidency, right?

Significant that Trump called Bezos to complain about Amazon *showing* the increased costs because of tariffs, not to complain about Amazon lying to customers about the effects of tariffs. Trump knows tariffs increase costs. So he lies about them to the public. But not to billionaires bribing him.

‼️‼️

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.
