1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Why hasn’t Trump or the AG said anything publicly to condemn the arson attack on Gov. Josh Shapiro and his family? Silence is complicity.

We live in a country where robbing and killing people is legal as long as it’s in a spreadsheet and generating profits for billionaires. Your reminder that oligarchs protect fascists because fascism inherently protects oligarchs.

➡️ Trump and his administration tell a lie. ➡️ Right-wing media reports on the lie as fact. ➡️ Trump administration cites the reporting to substantiate the lie. ➡️ Trump sees the lie on right-wing media and thinks it's actually true. 🔄 Repeat

Nothing but a costly scam affecting our privacy, financial wellbeing, & national security, while gutting valuable services and entire agencies to destroy our government. Lost resources & lost revenue. Prison would be too good for these folks. Thanks for the article @vivianofthesierras.bsky.social

The current prez of Harvard issued a letter taking at face value Trump's claim to be fighting antisemitism. Fortunately last week a former prez of Harvard joined the chorus calling total BS. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/03/o... No one should give this claim any credence.

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots. The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

Trump took his tariff insider trading scheme to Congress and made Marjorie Taylor Greene an offer she couldn’t refuse. MTG is now a gleeful participant in Trump’s crime spree.

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

They are snatching people off the street and sending them away to brutal prisons in foreign lands with zero due process - and they won't even bring them back when they realize a mistake was made. That's frightening stuff for any American who actually loves their country. #StopTrumpsTerror

Just saw Stephen Miller outside Tysons Mall getting into a car with his security Told him to his face that he's hurting American families. He didn't look up and his security told me I need to keep moving. I was with my son and holding a Lego bag. These men are weak, cruel cowards.

Seeing these enormous crowds gathered outside to protest Donald Trump, I am reminded of how Donald had to move his inauguration inside the Capitol because he was afraid (rightly) that the crowds outside would be too small.

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️ Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines. He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

Former President Obama brings his calm and steady leadership style to us once again to remind us of our power: “It is up to all of us to fix this. It's not going to be because somebody comes and saves you. The most important office in this democracy is the citizen—who says, no, that's not right.”

There are 33m companies in the USA. Only 21k employe 500 or more. And they only make up 23% of workers. Trump and Elon are ignoring the more than 32m entrepreneurs that can't afford to build a new factory or pay tariffs or absorb cancelled contracts.
