Adolescence is a show that forces empathy, so naturally Musk and his fellow youknowwhats make up shit about it.

The best case scenario is that this is a stock shorting scheme, and in a week, there will be masterful (non-existent) "dealmaking" that removes the tariffs after the billionaires buy the dip causing a massive transfer of wealth. That's the *best* case scenario.

Trump Asks Supreme Court to Block Order to Return Wrongly Deported Man The Justice Department asked the justices to pause a judge’s order directing the Trump administration to ensure that a Maryland man who was inadvertently deported to El Salvador is returned by midnight.

It will be another big week for democracy in court. The best way to stay informed is to subscribe for free to Democracy Docket. Always fearlessly independent with no corporate overlords. It will never bow down. It will not obey. www.democracydocket.com/me-newslette...

7 months ago. Bring back Bidenomics.

“This does not just affect North Carolina,” Riggs said. “This is like dropping a match in a really dry forest. And if we let this kind of anti-democratic effort take hold, we will not be able to contain it. So this is a fight for the very soul of democracy. Today’s decision was deeply misinformed.”

All I’m saying is that President Harris wouldn’t have us looking at the futures market on a Sunday night.

Well…this sums it up

Today, when hundreds of thousands are protesting, please take a few minutes to watch this video. Republicans are attacking free and fair elections in North Carolina to undermine democracy. youtu.be/8HfXI4d1byk

WATCH LIVE: Protests ERUPT nationwide against the Trump-Musk regime

The Shining City on a Hill has turned into a steaming pile of shit.

It's midnight in Washington, and in case you're catching up... So far tonight, Republicans have blocked amendments that would: – Remove tariffs hurting families – Protect disaster response and recovery - Secure Social Security benefits - Preserve federal lands (Thread 🧵)

This is insane and anti-democracy. Riggs will appeal. She won. Her own parents’ votes are being tossed (and yes they showed drivers licenses and military id). They only challenged select democratic counties (not all absentee), and this is what happens when voters are disenfranchised from voting!

$6.4 TRILLION LOST “Someone should sue to block his abuse of power” —WSJ

China doesn’t panic. This is just moronic.

Almost half of the country’s health insurance now rests in the hands of a man who once sold miracle pills — with zero proof they worked — on daytime TV.

This is our super power. Keep supporting businesses like Costco who do right and rejecting those like Target or Tesla who don’t! And who doesn’t love Costco?

A grocery store is where we all buy our groceries - why does anybody NOT think he’s just dumb? Dangerous, but dumb.

BREAKING: A federal court ordered Mahmoud Khalil's lawsuit should proceed in New Jersey instead of Louisiana, 1,500 miles from his family. This is an important step towards justice.

Crawford in Wisconsin! If you can’t give water to voters in line, should the richest person in the world be able to buy votes with million dollar bribes? Good sign for Democracy!

25 Hours, 4 Minutes “THIS IS OUR MORAL MOMENT!” Thank you, Sen. Cory Booker for showing us that saving our country will demand sacrifice and stamina.

Sen. Booker has given us hope after 23 hours of demonstrating the leadership + stamina we need to save Democracy. Sen. Schumer take note! With gratitude, Americans

@booker.senate.gov rises tonight on the senate floor because our country is in crisis. This is leadership @schumer.senate.gov

If it is to be, it is up to me! Thank you for taking the senate floor tonight, Senator @booker.senate.gov

If you're looking for an explainer on why due process matters to share with friends and family members who might ... need convincing, I've removed the (partial) paywall from my March 19 post for "One First" on the topic: www.stevevladeck.com/p/bonus-133-...

A federal appeals court granted Trump’s request to lift lower-court rulings that required him to reinstate two wrongfully dismissed members of independent federal agencies.

Amazing way to help people in real time. Thank you @andrewmersmann.bsky.social

Pretty excited about the kind words from Mr. Cuban!

Listen to @billyray5229.bsky.social on this podcast! This is really a sensible way forward to freedom, fairness and our future! Billy talks about messaging to help folks have faith (in our government, our communities, in people working for working people) over MAGA’s fearful authoritarian message.

very important and I've been hearing the same

It's undeniable, you can feel the movement and early numbers show, they want something different for our country and in Congress. Early voting is going on now. Do you have a plan in place? JoshWeil.us/vote

And huge shout out to @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social who’s the co-author. Absolutely essential work.

Interesting how those of us with immediate family in 1930s Berlin are worried about 2025 America

So, which is it? If this info wasn’t classified, that in itself would be a scandalous screw-up that must be explained. And if it was classified, then the Trump administration lied to Congress and to the American people.

Hey look — something good: Supreme Court (7-2) Upholds Biden Administration’s Limits on ‘Ghost Guns’ The administration had tightened regulations on kits that can be easily assembled into nearly untraceable firearms.

What could possibly go wrong?

Again? Is this legal??

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

How does this help keep anybody safe?

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...
