If the president can spend a quarter of his days in office golfing, corporations can give workers a four-day work week.

Remember, the Trump Adminstration made it a humanitarian priority to bring back Andrew Tate from Romania.

That’s the UNION difference.

This is the budget resolution that Republicans have voted for. Another reminder that we have socialism for the rich, harsh capitalism for the rest.

Fear has a way of being contagious. But courage is also contagious.

The worst catastrophes of history are caused by men who are malevolent, ignorant, and have exceptional wills.

The media is complicit

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

"Somewhere I read that the greatness of America is the right to protest for rights." In the final speech of his life, Martin Luther King Jr. emphasized the importance of freedom of speech and assembly.

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

22 weeks apart.

james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country "...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."

“There isn’t a single person in this entire country whose life isn’t impacted by the essential functions of HHS, and soon we’ll see what happens when those functions are destroyed.”

Not quite a Marshall McLuhan moment, but about as close as possible.

it is as simple as he has said it..."its not left of right, its right or wrong" #corybooker #usanews #politics

You have to see this. PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

If he did something less serious like attack the Capitol he could've gotten a pardon.

Hour 6 of the marathon speech by US Senator Cory Booker (D-New Jersey) in Congress, a very emotional moment as he reads a letter from a constituent with Parkinson's Disease.

Our lives, country and world in general would be so much less chaotic and frightening if more folks had listened and voted for Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris instead its that simple. 👇 #Hillary #JoyfulWarriors

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

This is what corruption looks like.

A Skadden attorney resigned today, citing the firm’s decision to strike a deal with Trump amid pressure campaign on law firms. “[I]f my employer cannot stand up for the rule of law, then I cannot ethically continue to work for them,” the former Skadden lawyer, Brenna Trout Frey, wrote on LinkedIn.

In case you didn’t believe Trump is a Russian asset, there’s this.

yes this!!! time to stop playing nice!!

Meta raked in $8B thanks to Trump’s first tax cuts. It donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. Comcast got $6.6B. It donated $1M to his inauguration. Bank of America got $24B in tax subsidies, and you guessed it, donated to Trump’s inauguration. This is who Trump governs for.

🔑 under-discussed point — why they were on signal:

A come-to-Jesus moment for American lawyers, and for America's most important law firms. This is it. This is the moment you always imagined, where you told yourself you would do the right thing -- where you told yourself that your profession would stand up. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

On this day in 1911,146 workers died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. The bosses responsible were never held accountable for the awful working conditions that sparked the blaze. Remember this today as politicians and their corporate backers attack workplace safety.

If Trump can disappear green card holders for protesting war, he can disappear you. If he can disappear visa holders for criticizing him, he can disappear you. If he can disappear asylum seekers for tattoos, he can disappear you. We must speak out now — before there is no one left to speak out.

This continues to be the biggest story in the country: DOGE has already squandered half a trillion dollars in 6 weeks. Not billion. half a trillion, $500 billion talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/irs-p...

My question everyday Every F’ing day

One more tiny step...

AOC, @aoc.bsky.social, making the case for free speech alongside universal healthcare is so KEY for the left, because it's time progressives reclaimed the mantle of fighting for free speech from the faux free speech warriors of the right.
