If you are someone who typically sees a bill and hears that x number of Democrats voted for it and your first reaction is “who are the Democrats who voted for this bill?” then you need to bookmark clerk.house.gov on that website you can see exactly how every representative voted on every bill. 1/2

Hey, fellow nerds, If you're not already actively protesting the absolute travesty that is the Trump regime and constantly calling/writing your reps, maybe you should start. The recent tariffs on the UK will likely result in at least a 10% hike in Games Workshop prices. #Warhammer #Idiocy

Roughly 2% of the US population was out protesting on Saturday. At least somebody covered it: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I lost my job, my kids have measles, and I had to drive my parents 200 miles to a Social Security office, but at least I know that immigrants are getting sent to torture prisons in El Salvador.

Assuming we distribute just the cost of the tariffs and don't plan on any other cost-increasing factors, it will cost every household an average of $5,000 per year. We all just got a $5,000 tax hike, all so Elon and his pals can pay virtually nothing.

DOGE is actually INCREASING the deficit. It has cut only a small fraction of what it’s claimed to cut. And it’s cutting the IRS and CFPB — both of which GAIN revenue for the government. So DOGE is a money loser — except for Elon Musk, who profits off fat government contracts.

FTC Commissioner Alvaro Bedoya is part of two active lawsuits against Amazon for alleged anti-competitive and anti-consumer behavior. Right before Trump tried to fire him, Bedoya criticized Amazon for mistreating workers. Is it any wonder why Trump wants him gone?

I keep asking: Why does media and Congress treat Trump’s edicts like he can just wave them into reality? Why doesn’t NBC include anywhere in this piece that he CANNOT DO THIS without Congressional approval e.g. 2/3 support of the Senate, which he won’t get? THIS IS MANUFACTURING COMPLIANCE!

And if anybody was confused about why Biden felt the need to pardon these folks... This is literally why. They did nothing wrong, but he knew Trumpty-Dumpty would still go after them.

Two stories today about different people wrongly thrown off Social Security, one marked dead, the other seems to be because he was born outside the U.S. on a U.S. military base. First effects of DOGE on SSA. This will get worse. www.wkrn.com/news/nationa... www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

1. What you see here is clearest illustration why things are so messed up and why it cannot get any better until this asymmetry is addressed. Put simply: the right-wing has narrative dominance. My org @mmfa.bsky.social did this study and has been sounding this alarm for years. Some thoughts...

FDR once bragged to a massive crowd at Madison Square Garden that the richest people in the nation hated him and “I welcome their hatred.” Just weeks later, he was re-elected with 61% of the vote in a 523-8 blowout in the Electoral College. Voters like politicians who make the right enemies.

The ADL threw its support behind Trump's arrest of Mahmoud Khalil. I know a little bit about the ADL because I used to work there, so I wrote about the civil rights org that doesn't care about civil rights.

What he's saying is that he wants those paycheck deductions labeled "social security" to pay for his companies' massive subsidies and government contracts. He's literally robbing us.

Quite honestly, I don’t care if a “majority of people” think trans people shouldn’t be allowed to play sports. Supporting trans people is the right thing to do, and I’m going to do that.
