WHAT DO THESE GENIUSES THINK WILL HAPPEN TO MANUFACTURING JOBS IN THIS COUNTRY IF THERE IS A RECESSION !?!?!?!?!?!!?

More lost American business; more lost American jobs.

The President of the United States engaged in insider trading, and laughed about it. He is not exempt from the law. Where the fuck is Congress?

Jim Crow 2.0 Ladies we need documentation of your first grade teachers name and credentials. Then , you might be able to vote.

🚨 From a fellow BlueSky traveler: Homeland Security stormed LA schools without a warrant, targeting kids. Principals shut them down. Schools are not battlegrounds. We will not let our communities be terrorized. Stand up and fight back. #ProtectOurKids #DefendOurSchools

Trump is destroying US weather forecasting and research because he dislikes the word "climate": "While the phrase 'climate change' refers to manmade influence on climate via planet-warming pollution, 'climate' in NOAA parlance is simply weather observed over time..." www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/c...

Why go looking for sanctuary cities harboring immigrants when there’s a perfectly good 34-count felon being harbored in the White House. 🔥🔥

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

This is an objectively pro crime, pro criminal administration.

In a way the tone is almost as frightening as the substance. The dissent writes like it understands the stakes, and what kind of regime we're on the precipice of becoming. The majority writes like it's hearing a case about whether rollerblades can be taxed as vehicles.

NEW: Yesterday, the Justice Department sent armed marshals to warn former U.S. pardon attorney Liz Oyer not to disclose internal DOJ information during her Senate testimony. Today, Oyer is speaking out to condemn the DOJ’s actions and defend the rule of law.

I think the Supreme Court got the law badly wrong tonight. But beyond that, it’s just incredibly ominous that Roberts would throw Boasberg under the bus and hand Trump this big win when his administration has conducted this case in EXTREME bad faith from the start. slate.com/news-and-pol...

MAGA: Violent rapists have no place in this country. Also MAGA: Cry harder. He’s your president.

Big Journalism (esp. @nytimes.com) failed to adequately & accurately cover the #handsoff pro-democracy demonstrations. Local outlets did *much* better. Newsroom leaders need to defend democracy from autocracy. Read our latest blog post. 1/n mediaanddemocracyproject.substack.com/p/local-news...

“While in the interrogation room, Makled said, a man in plain clothes entered and began speaking to him. He said he recalls the man telling him: ‘We know you're a lawyer. We know you take on big cases.’”

The Supreme Court has effectively sentenced more innocent people to be disappeared into Bukele's torture dungeon. Disgraceful capitulation to fascism.

The moral of the story is that if you put 5 million people out in the streets, they will come
