John Roberts, working for another “Thank you again. Thank you again. Won't forget,” from Trump at the 2026 SOTU. www.axios.com/2025/04/07/s...

So the kidnapped people sent to El Salvador . . . those are life sentences. Or what? There were no trials.

Another brave WOMAN.

This Senate bill to slap limits on the president’s tariff power now has SEVEN Republican sponsors: • Grassley • Moran • Murkowski • McConnell • Tillis • Young • Collins

A fun reminder that Congress has the constitutional authority to take back its tariff power from POTUS and stop this madness

*president crashes the stock market* Hassett: oh so it’s illegal for guys to have hobbies now?

This is part of what’s so insane. As they talk about re-shoring and manufacturing they are actively trying to destroy an entire us manufacturing industry that already exists.

Who did this?

NEWS: A federal judge has ordered the return of a Salvadoran man who the Trump administration admits was erroneously deported to his home country despite a court order saying he had credible fear of persecution. This sets up a potential clash w the White House. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

Yes. The markets are going “boom” just like Elon’s Starship rockets.

WTF. All so cruel and careless.

For the pundits (rightly) pointing out that the calculations behind these tariffs are arbitrary, capricious, malicious garbage: I hope it’s clear now that the same level of care and attention to detail has been applied to government layoffs and deportations

Trump slashed funding for Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) centers, which have supported small U.S. manufacturers for decades. This hypocritical move, right before announcing new tariffs, undermines his supposed goal of boosting domestic manufacturing, leaving small businesses high and dry.

Life comes at you ... at exactly the rate it promised to come at you during its 4-year re-election campaign where it told you exactly what it planned to do literally thousands of times.

Stop voting for the GOP assholes. They always kill the economy. Reagan=1986 fuck the poors, Bush sr= fuck yo job, Bush jr=fuck being a homeowner. Trump=fuck everyone all at once.

This was….five months ago

We need more reps speaking out on this!

The US is undergoing the worst self-inflicted destruction of health, education, and knowledge creation infrastructure since the great leap forward. We will all be substantially less educated, poorer, and sicker while millions will die from completely preventable causes. It's civilizational suicide.

Gonna keep saying this: In the 1840s, Southerners insisted that they could kidnap any person they alleged was a slave without any state or federal process. This turned even minimal process into resistance and raised the salience of the issue, which radicalized a bunch of people against slavery.

Welcome to Gilead indeed.

"Y'all, what's the big deal about a president honestly and candidly saying he wants to violate the Constitution? You need to chill. Authoritarianism is no biggie when it's done candidly with a smile!"

Unacceptable.

Today, Rep. Dan Goldman and I re-introduced the Abortion Care Awareness Act of 2025. This bill directs HHS to launch a national education campaign so people know their rights, understand their options, and can access accurate info about abortion care.

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.

NEW: DOGE is trying to gift itself a building worth $500 million, court filings show. It's the culmination of a dramatic battle between DOGE and the United States Institute of Peace, a Congressionally funded think tank. www.wired.com/story/doge-t...

Some good news on Transgender Day of Visibility

This is really important. China has been quiet these past few months for a reason. They are watching and waiting for opportunities to align with former allies.

"The problem with a delayed response is that the more power leaders with authoritarian tendencies accumulate, the harder it is to mount an effective resistance. The opposition is thus more likely to succeed if it acts early..." www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...

US women deserve better

If only we had done this.

At his rally in Wisconsin, South African billionaire Elon Musk says he will put an end to the Federal Reserve Bank and the US Dollar so that he, Peter Thiel and David Sacks (the South African broligarchs) can introduce a new cryptocurrency based financial system.

Watching Mufasa with my daughter and getting inspired for the resistance.

What RFK has done just this week to NOT support vaccines: -fired FDA's top vaccine scientist -buried CDC's measles forecast -shut down agency that runs the NATIONAL VACCINE PROGRAM (OIDP) -Hired anti-vaxxer to probe phony autism/vax links -Made Texas kids sick with his vitamin A measles 'cure'

This!

When the physicists need burner phones, that’s when you know America’s changed. US academics, fearing persecution by their own government, are becoming ideological refugees. Europe, and Britain, must offer them sanctuary. #MomSky www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The whole point of due process is TO SEE IF YOU’VE VIOLATED THE LAW

This needs to be said more and loudly.
