The wages of the richest 1% have skyrocketed 182% since 1979.  Meanwhile, the wages of the bottom 90% have seen just 44% growth.  Trickle down economics was always a hoax.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Raskin: "So who is leading DOGE? Is it the young man who calls himself Big Balls? Is it the racist on the night crew who's proud of the fact he was a racist before all of his friends were racist, and says we should legitimize Indian hate?"

This is real

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

Can we just seize the Russian assets already and give them to Ukraine? Good lord just do it

Strangely relevant. www.oldmagazinearticles.com/image_files/...

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau exists to protect Americans from predatory lenders, junk fees, and fraud. Shutting it down does nothing more than give sketchy companies a free pass to prey on the public. We’re not going to let that happen.

Ludicrous statement by a MAGAt "friend" yesterday, i.e. DEI was responsible for the California wildfires. Eyes narrowed and my tongue shot out words, "You would have to be stupid to believe that. Are you really that stupid?" Blank stare. It may only work on that MAGAt but hey, give it a try.

DOGE's numbers are worse than those of the government they're supposed to be improving...

He's mad his lies about Ukraine were fact-checked by his own website so he wants to change the fact-checking system

BREAKING: DOJ announces that administrative law judge removal protections are unconstitutional, although DOJ Chief of Staff Chad Mizelle's wording leaves unclear whether all such protections are unconstitutional or just certain ones. It also leaves unclear what DOJ is actually doing as a result.

Watch this clip, folks 👇 Does Bannon sound like he's joking about Trump becoming dictator for life? Because he isn't.

Trump warned Maine that he would block federal dollars from going to the state, saying it was letting transgender people compete in women’s sports

Three updates: 1. The Justice Department has deleted a database tracking federal police misconduct. The database was first proposed in 2020 following the police killing of George Floyd.

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

Reminder: Zelenskyy refused to leave Kyiv as bombs fell. Donold hid in a bunker from protesters with cardboard signs.

The new chairman of the FTC wants to investigate cENsORsHiP on social platforms and boy do I have a platform for them! www.platformer.news/ftc-censorsh...

— Accidentally fired workers trying to contain bird flu — Accidentally fired workers overseeing our nuclear stockpile — Accidentally fired workers providing health care to Native Americans “Accidentally.” More like gross incompetence and mismanagement. Opposite of efficient.

Elon musing about prosecuting schiff isn’t mere politics, it’s a lot more than that. I wish Schiff would explain a little bit more of what a norms crusher this is.

Murphy: "There's no separation between the Kremlin & the White House right now. The White House is a full-time Kremlin propaganda operation..there's a real probability American troops are going to have fight abroad to protect the global world order & our allies & perhaps American sovereignty itself"

The key point that was made in this clip is that it happened organically. We don’t come from the consultant class, we get zero legacy media hype, we don’t get invited on shows & don’t want to be on TV, no big money donors writing checks. It all happened one person at a time. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

Hate speech on X remained 50% higher for months after Elon Musk's acquisition according to a new study. Additionally, despite Musk's pledge to combat spam bots, the study found no reduction (and possibly an increase) in inauthentic accounts. journals.plos.org/plosone/arti...

💯💪🏼

Correct. He’s not capable of playing multidimensional chess. Or chess. Or checkers. Or tic-tac-toe. As one of his aides put it during Shit Show I, “he’s just eating the pieces” on the board. Nothing he does is strategic. He’s purely guided by narcissistic, sociopathic impulses at all times.

I hope so! That is awesome!

“the United States is not a startup. The federal government exists to do all of the things that are definitionally not profitable, that serve the public good rather than protect investor profits. (The vast majority of startups also fail, something the United States cannot afford to do.)”

They’re going to try and prosecute their political enemies

Classic con structure: the big returns are coming!

THIS is how you communicate. Say it plain.

I posted this was a lie right after Musk said it. This is the Commander of the ISS. Musk responded to this post by throwing a temper tantrum and calling for ISS to be defunded.

Dear business owners that voted for Trump, You could have had $50K in capital and a robust SBA. Instead, DOGE is cancelling all your government contracts and putting you out of business so he can have the contracts for himself.
