'Someone knew': Insider trading speculation abounds after Trump abruptly reverses course www.rawstory.com/2671729718/

Two American soldiers proudly show off their personalized "Easter eggs" (155mm artillery shells) made especially for Adolf Hitler, 1945.

The disgusting part is if the fat orange blob does stroke out, we're left with this flip flopping oligarch's puppet.

This is coming. The only way to prevent it is to get out in such numbers that they don't dare attempt to use the insurrection act to declare martial law. 3.5% of the population will topple a tyrannical regime peacefully. We had over 5 million on the April 5th. 12 million makes 3.5% 50501

It's probably (it's definitely) a bad sign I felt compelled to re-read 1984. That said, it still slaps. Yes, it's infuriating RWNJs have adopted it without understanding it but at least that serves as a pure example of doublethink. This graphic novel edition was a 'fun' way to reabsorb its insights.

It’s only going to get worse, folks.

Boat derangement syndrome

Just gonna leave this here…

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

Am I missing something? This man is just quoting Goebbels unironically? Guys, I think the simulation has run out of ram. Or we're off the edge of the map or something. Just... what. Anyways, go protest! April 5th peaceful nation wide protests!! Google 50501 to find a protest in your area.

Get out there and make your voices heard!! They can disappear us to hellhole El Salvadorian prisons one by one, but they can not take us if we stand united as one!!! @50501movement @50501veterans www.handsoff2025.com There IS a protest near you and we need to all turn out!!!

Americans demand to know why Elon Musk & DOGE are hacking our private data and what they’re doing with it. I introduced an Oversight resolution that will investigate Musk’s unsanctioned access to data and his use of AI to mine American data and its implications for privacy and national security.

Dictators of all stripes hate solidarity. They’d prefer that we cower alone. They want us to feel powerless. This is why I encourage you to participate in the peaceful demonstrations planned for today across America. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/april-5-hands-off-our-healthcare

PUT THIS ON BLAST: Trump’s tariffs just pushed the risk of a U.S. and global recession this year up to 60%—up from 40%, according to J.P. Morgan. THATS NOT ALL: The White House made up the numbers—Trump Math 🤡

GOP advances bill that would legalize anti-LGBTQ+ workplace discrimination - LGBTQ Nation www.lgbtqnation.com/2025/04/gop-...

Mourning, Bluesky!!💜 Here's a reminder that the regime is disappearing American citizens. Because 47, Leon, Vance, and Rubio SOLD them to El Salvador and El Salvador has a no refunds policy supposedly. We can't get said citizens back. We must fight back. #SheShed #MomSky #Voices4Victory

NEW: The chapters, one board member argued, were inappropriate for students because they discussed “vaccines and polio,” touched on “topics of depopulation,” had “an agenda out of the United Nations” and included “a perspective that humans are bad.” With @texastribune.org
