The Dow is now headed for its worst April since 1932 -- the very worst year of the Great Depression.

Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

Pete Hegseth has one sideburn. did the other one get shaved off as a prank or what?

This guy is crashing out hard

Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "My whole point here is if you deprive one man of his constitutional rights, you threaten the constitutional rights of everybody ... if you threaten the rule of law for one person, you threaten if for everybody in America."

All facts

Van Hollen on Fox News Sunday: "I'm not vouching for the man. I'm vouching for the man's rights. His constitutional rights to due process."

I don't know who besides the White House needs to hear this, but spraying cheap, Chinese-made foam wall decorations with gold spray paint isn’t classy, it’s tacky as hell and prodigiously embarrassing Right now the Oval Office looks like the dumpster behind a Michael’s

REMINDER: Social Security has a fraud rate of 0.00625%, which is far lower than private sector retirement programs.

Easter posts from the last three presidents:

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-NC) was politely asked "When's your next town hall meeting?" She said "Fuck you" and bragged that she would never be voted out of office. Maybe reposting her video will help. substack.com/@shero/note/...

And Thom Tillis, up for reelection in 2026, was the key vote to confirm Hegseth along with Joni Ernst. Despite the fact that they knew he was unfit, they were afraid of Trump and put their political futures ahead of the country. Now they own every bit of this debacle.

Empathy is for the weak

Because when you look around at education in Arkansas, the first thing you think is man, these kids need to learn not to covet their neighbor‘s wife… www.ky3.com/2025/04/19/n...

Just A Reminder Of What We Are Dealing With Daily….

One million people checked out my list of the Top 15 signs from the Hands Off protest two weeks ago. These are my favorite new ones from yesterday. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

‘I don’t want to give money to this America’: tourists’ fears of US travel under Trump. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Andry Hernandez Romero, the Venezuelan makeup artist sent to a notorious Salvadoran prison, claimed asylum in the US because he was persecuted as a gay man. Chris Van Hollen met in El Salvador with Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Andry lived in San Diego—why hasn’t Alex Padilla or Adam Schiff met with him? 🤨

Van Hollen: "I'm very glad that the killed of Rachel Morin has been convicted in a court of law. That is how we hold guilty people accountable ... I'm not sure why Abrego Garcia's rights should be denied based on an awful murder he had absolutely nothing to do with."

“You should take a look around at the country we now share and picture what it will look like and feel like to be out in public - in a land where mental health services, substance abuse treatment, nutritional assistance, veterans’ benefits and Social Security have all been cut from coast to coast.”

Absolutely outrageous. 😡

Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe, vulnerable, and alone. But when we find ourselves surrounded by courageous people and brave institutions, we can more easily find courage inside ourselves. This is the beauty of solidarity.

Van Hollen Says We’re In a ‘Constitutional Crisis’ politicalwire.com/2025/04/20/v...

Reminds me of all the Republicans in Congress who celebrated the Fourth of July in Moscow. Except they were there to celebrate Putin and never updated their plaques. Chris Van Hollen traveled to save a constituent. These assholes won’t even show up at a townhall in their district

Well-deserved recognition for one of the single-most talented people on the entire Internet. You all know MeidasTouch senior editor @acyn.bsky.social’s clips. Now learn more about the man behind the posts.

A reminder that Trump is governing as if he’s never leaving. Think about it. All these partisan changes he’s making to the federal government would work against Republicans if a Democrat ever came back into office. If.

His whole presidency (both the past and present) has been about ripping off the American people for as much as he possibly could get away with…👇 And now, there’s this BULLSHIT!

I'm not in the habit of sharing Washington Post links these days, but I'll make an exception here because someone has finally done a profile on the influential and mysterious @acyn.bsky.social. If not for essential guys like Acyn and @atrupar.com I'm not sure where we'd be today. wapo.st/3RpEvJ7

Wow. What a solidly immature person to hold office. Look him up. He's a solid asshole

As long as we’re deporting people with tattoos.

Turns out you can shape the agenda with dramatic action and maybe even shift public opinion. Crazy.

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

Trump is now on Twitter posting doctored photos of the tattoos of Kilmar Garcia. The whole world knows we have a deranged lunatic in the White House—and no one seems to know what to do about it. He is so obviously mentally unwell that there is no longer any serious debate about whether that is so.

Staple this to RFK Jr’s forehead.
