You would have to be a complete idiot to believe this garbage from Trump. Be patient? WTAF

if they werent gutting things like the sec, we could find out who just made a killing pumping and dumping. oh well.

Do clients really want to hire a law firm known for how quickly it rolls over? Yet, now this is Paul Weiss's well deserved reputation.

Imagine having your job and retirement and entire economic system hinging on random tweets because power has been completely vested in a handful of five completely insane people and nothing they do has any coherence other than harming people lol HAHAHAHA lol hahaaaaa

The tariffs are wreaking immediate and catastrophic economic havoc, but make no mistake, the rest of what’s he’s doing, from gutting Social Security, the VA, and the NIH to undermine vaccines is just as reckless and will lead to the same scale of damage.

This all alone is an open-and-shut cause for impeachment, yes there are dozens of others but sometimes it's clarifying to just look at one

This is why the "high ... misdemeanors" part is in there. Not in our modern sense of a minor criminal offense. Rather in the more literal older sense of bad behavior, or in plainer terms simply being an insufferable and malicious idiot.

None of this damage by Trump or Musk would be possible without the full and unwavering support of the Republican Party. This is like pretending that the problem with the Civil War was that Jefferson Davis thought too much of himself.

In just two months, DOGE has —lost— the government an estimated half a trillion dollars. I propose that Musk pay it back personally.

Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) has a bill to return tariff authority to Congress. If it were to pass, the purposeless tariffs would end. Speaker Johnson is blocking it. Call your member of Congress, R or D, & urge a discharge petition on the bill, which forces a vote. U.S. Capitol switchboard: 202-224-3121.

policy is definitely a legitimate cause for impeachment and removal. we've had presidents who've cozied up to the KKK and caused genocides. fucking remove them. "high crimes and misdemeanors" includes hurting other people wantonly, regardless of laws written by oil companies & crypto bros

Journalist Hilmi Al-Faqaawi has been killed following an Israeli airstrike that targeted a press tent at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis burning him alive for the world to see. Still no one will stop the genocide. He is the 211th journalist to be murdered by Israel.

Trump has done the same damage to our health, environment and security as to our markets, it's just that there isn't a stock ticker that measures the impact so clearly

Keep in mind — he claims this is all being done to boost 🇺🇸 manufacturing… but Biden actually did that 👇🏽 And his tariffs are actually hurting companies that are planning factories here and making them rethink their plans, despite what he’s saying: www.wsj.com/economy/trad...

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

Stock market poised to crash tomorrow & Donald states “sometimes you have to take medicine”. He’s crashing the economy on purpose. Maybe it’s time for him to take his “medicine”.

Given Trump’s flagrant lawlessness, in a sane country we would’ve been talking about impeachment and removal weeks ago.

This isn’t just a Trump problem. This is a GOP enablers problem. The entire Republican Party is draining your 401k and raising your grocery prices.

Truth. A production job in a chicken plant or a textile factory is a job and I don’t put down any kind of honest work - but it ain’t a job you’d want your kids to aspire to. People worked their tails off in those places so their kids wouldn’t have to.

“I don’t think inflation’s going to be a big deal,” says Trump. 77 million Americans voted for a madman.

the sick thing is, we have an actual policy that was revitalizing US manufacturing without relying on the nimble hands of underpaid 10yo wastrels it’s called the Inflation Reduction Act and they are shoving it into the wood chipper

THIS! Over 1000 marched in protest in Sackets Harbor, NY on Sat after a mother & 3 children were snatched by ICE & sent to a detention center in Texas. The 3 children were dragged out of beds at 6am put into a van in handcuffs. 1000 protesting in a town of only 1363 residents👏 (🎥 7 News)

The entire budget of the National Endowment for the Humanities (which has been devastated by Trump & Musk) is 3% of this.

Take 30 minutes and listen to @gilduran.com about the method behind the alleged madness of Trump's murder-suicide of the economy. The collapse is part of the plan. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yT-_...

Top 5 signs @jamieraskin saw in DC today: 1. “Elon Musk is the only undocumented immigrant taking your job” 2. “Neuter your Doge” 3. “Donald Trump, Russian-Owned since 1987” 4. “The Emperor has no clothes and it ain’t pretty” 5. “Buy America: Putin did”

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: … For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world: —Declaration of Independence.

Ezra Levin: Are we stepping up? Crowd: Yes!! You bet your a** we are! #HandsOff @indivisible.org

Over 1,000 kids, elders with canes, moms with babies in strollers, dads, veterans, former Republicans & others showed up today in Newtown, Connecticut to tell Trump/Musk to keep their #HandsOff gun control, democracy, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Ukraine, Women, LGBTQ. Civil Rights, DEI…

Protesters form a human banner on Ocean Beach during a protest against U.S. President Donald Trump, part of the “Hands Off" rallies
