Remember that time in 2020 when the Proud Boys during a Trump rally in DC, destroyed BLM flags at black churches? And so one of those churches sued them and not only won damages, but also won their trademark? Well… 😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹

Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C. We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.

Have you seen any news orgs use the words “impeach” or “resign” applied to Trump? Any editorials? As far as we’ve seen Murdoch’s WSJ w/the first indirect use of the word. Will any editorial board call for resignation or impeachment? Where’s the Fourth Estate? Please thread your findings

This grift is revealing law firms to actually be what people always thought about the profession - Sleazy Five more law firms cut deals with Trump. $600 mil in pro bono services. Four of the five firms were facing EEOC investigations of their DEI programs. Those probes are now dropped.

There’s a special place in HELL for anyone who stands before the Supreme Court and argues that a man they wrongfully sent to an El Salvadorian death camp should stay there.

Lie Detector Test at work?

Let’s send food safety inspectors to the coal mines’

This right here 🔥 “If there was market manipulation, it is a crime. Someone needs to go to jail… I want the documents. I want the Signal chats too, because I don’t trust them — that they weren’t sharing all this information across their Signal chats.” – @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

#TrumpParade 🤣🤣

The United States is the richest country in the history of the world. But who benefits from those riches? Consider: the richest 10% of Americans hold nearly 70% of the nation’s wealth – while the bottom 50% hold just 3%. See the problem?

We have the most anti-free speech government in modern American history. (And yet, in true Orwellian fashion, they claim to be champions of free speech.)

The dream is dead

The Trump administration has directed State Department employees to begin reporting colleagues who exhibit what the administration labels as “anti-Christian bias.” The move comes as part of the implementation of a new executive order signed by President Trump. Feeling “very ‘Handmaid’s Tale’-esque.”

WTF? The Social Security Administration Is Gutting Regional Staff and Shifting All Public Communications to X So now we just post our issues on X and hope someone sees it. Might as well be the “States of X”

Matthew Graham,COO of Mortgage News Daily:“There have been some bad weeks for bonds here and there over the careers of most anyone who’s alive to read these words, but unless your career began before 1981,you just lived through the worst week you’ve ever seen in terms of the jump in 10-year yields.”

More Winning 🏆 The average mortgage rate on 30-year fixed surged 1.3 basis points today to 7.1%.

I think this is a pretty good bet.

There must be no tolerance for failure. Good intentions don’t cut it anymore. We must win elections. The American people deserve tough, smart, ferocious advocates who can’t get played by Trump. They must see around corners, and feel when a predator and his gang are surrounding them intuitively.

@repjasmine.bsky.social time to impeach Trump. It’s time for the democrats to get together and see what kind of military we have on our side to take Trump out. It’s time to remove him from the government and restore our constitution!

Everyone do yourself a favor and watch Scott Galloways appearance on the View today. He’s my pick for our presidential candidate in 28’

Scott Galloway for President !!!

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

This era of mass grift—driven by one of the most corrupt administrations in American history—isn’t just a crisis. It’s a massive opportunity for the Democratic Party to lead an unapologetic, system-wide anti-corruption campaign.

They are obviously slow learners

Donald Trump has introduced a new accessory for his inner circle: golden lapel pins featuring his own likeness.Forget the traditional American flag pin;the new symbol of allegiance is a miniature golden Trump bust.This move seems to be less about patriotism and more about personal branding.

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

“No one, apparently, is willing to prevent a single man from destroying the world economy, wrecking financial markets, forcing this country and other countries into recession – if that’s what he feels like doing when he gets up tomorrow morning.” Anne Applebaum

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.

“What has the country gotten for all of this chaos? Nothing. Trump tarnished the United States’ long-standing trading relationships and boosted the cost of imports, and evidently won zero concessions in return,” @annielowrey.bsky.social writes:

Due to budget cuts, the TSA is now using the honor system.

The new Quinnipiac poll has Trump’s approval rating falling to 41% approval and 53% disapproval. … CNN’s Harry Enten: “There are only two presidents who have net approval ratings negative at this point. One of them was Donald Trump in his first term and the other one, Donald Trump in second term.”

“I still don't understand how it's not news for conservatives that Senate Republicans responded to this election and Bidenflation by announcing a bill to add $5.8 trillion to the deficit in return for cutting 0.004% out of an 89 trillion budget over 10 years. Trump supports it. What a fraud.”

NEW VIDEO: The U.S. House of Representatives passed a major voter suppression bill that would disenfranchise millions of eligible voters and badly undermine democracy. Paige and I break it down. youtu.be/XS8aePRgFU4?...

There is only one way to keep the deficit at a reasonable level - Trump’s tax cuts or massive cuts in entitlements. Republicans know this very well. It seems that they are choosing neither and exploding the deficit more than any Congress in history by far.
