"We do not have to become heroes overnight. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it is not as dreadful as it appeared, discovering we have the strength to stare it down." – Eleanor Roosevelt #AltGov #AltFam #AltCitizen

The sane-washing of Trump’s trade madness is inexcusable. US implements tariffs, China matches. US implements more tariffs, China matches. US surrenders & partly reduces tariffs, China matches. Media: “MAJOR TRADE DEAL!” What a joke.

this mf really loves Signal

Here it is. A timetable of 100 days of corruption. Breathtaking. Heartbreaking. We cannot let this stand.

Elbows up, Canada! 🇨🇦 Get out there and vote. Don’t let what is happening to us, happen to you.

This aged like milk. Donald Trump's weaponization of the tax system is illegal and a threat to every person who works hard and plays by the rules. Why aren't Republicans in Congress speaking out now? Grow a spine.

A failure of epic proportions, it’s past time for congress to stand up.

Is this administration so weak that Donald Trump and JD Vance can’t ask El Salvador to return someone they deported in error & have confidence El Salvador will honor their request? That would be a shocking fall in status for the United States.

Politics hasn't been this simple in a long time: do you think it's good for one man to exercise unchecked, arbitrary power or not. Those are the two available ideologies right now

The president told a Central American dictator to build five more massive slave labor camps to hold US citizens.

yeah man, please make my 85 year old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past

"It's an extraordinary question to have to ask you, but do you think Donald Trump actually understands how international trade actually works."

So stocks jumped 2000 points because Trump announced a 90-day pause in tariffs. The same pause he swore earlier this week he wouldn't do and can backtrack on three hours from now and send stocks plunging again. This is not sustainable. Strip him of his tariffs power.

Seriously, who voted for this?

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

“All I ask is that he have his advisers call any three economists from the phone book. Any three,” he said. “I guarantee that all three will advise him to reverse course straight away. There’s no debate..It’s simply destructive.”

Hey Wall Street, You all chipped in to elect Trump because you wanted tax cuts and deregulation . Now that we’ve gone completely off the rails, how about dialing up those senators and reps you own and force them to reign this shit in? #BlackSundayNight

Follow the money and see where it goes. Elon Musk was just awarded a $5.9 billion taxpayer-funded SpaceX contract by Trump—the largest in a new package of space deals. Trump ensured Musk got the money, fully aware he’s facing “steep personal cost.”

Spitting 🔥

This is a suicide note for the American economy.

Good morning. Booker + WI judge win feels like Dave Roberts steal in the 2004 ALCS. Still a long hard road—but there’s a glimmer.

Bravo, Booker. Amazing performance.

Thank you Corey Booker, for standing up, for speaking up, for refusing to sit down to tyranny! #GoodTrouble

Our democracy is being dismantled and our populace is being terrorized by a clown car of pricks who’ve never known kindness, empathy, humor, rhythm, style, or consensual sex without the exchange of money or favors.

This is painful, and saddening, and embarrassing. I feel like we're losing a member of the family - and for no good reason other than that some Americans wanted another season of the worst reality TV show in history.

WOW what a sad time….On behalf of sane America to Canada….We apologize…Trump doesn’t represent us

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.

Hey Greasy Pete, Sorry about your micro-penis and the resulting insecurities. Please stop compensating by canceling true heroes.

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

The immunity ruling, Sotomayor said, “‘lies about like a loaded weapon’ for any President that wishes to place his own interests, his own political survival or his own financial gain above the interests of the Nation.” Trump’s pointing the loaded weapon at us. www.americaamerica.news/p/a-lawless-...

When Teslas have more government protection than women

The richest man in the world gave a 22 year old without a security clearance everyone in America’s social security and tax information and Senate Democrats did absolutely fuck all in response. Incredible work everyone.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Grocery prices are soaring. Housing costs are skyrocketing. Retirement savings are plummeting. But Donald Trump thought today would be a good day to play car salesman.
