#TrumpTariffs #TrumpMarketCrash

Horsford is PISSED. This clip is worth watching.

Less than three months ago, Jamie Dimon on Trump's tariffs: Probably no big deal. "Get over it." Now: Oops. We need better capitalists. www.cnn.com/2025/04/07/b...

This one should be an award winner

Oops... He accidentally said what he meant. Sen. Bill Cassidy: "Is there some way that we cut Medicare so that it's-- excuse me, reform Medicare." #MedicareForAll #medicare #ohio #PeopleOverProfit

Got this tip as well

Kendall Brown, Oklahoma constituent fighting for her husband (active duty soldier currently in Yemen), fighting for herself and her country… Great video showing how it’s done! @kendallyb.bsky.social

When you send innocent people to a foreign gulag, you are not fighting terror. You are practicing it.

Would like to report some gang tattoos.

🚨 🚨 “Deport Her” - by @knecessary.bsky.social Go here for a full update:

If court orders are being ignored, we’re having that constitutional crisis that everyone’s been worried about. We’re there, folks.

DOGE/SSA marked this person dead and *removed his savings from his bank account,* cancelled his social security and Medicare. #seattle https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/politics/heres-a-dead-person-on-social-security-in-seattle-with-plenty-to-say/

Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.

Not hypothetical anymore

Schumer! If not now, when? Your days of leadership must come to an end. You blinked, you sold out, you are history. Not good history, but history. This is not generational. This is ALL of us.

With his permission, I'm sharing Dean Treanor's response to Ed Martin's letter:

So don't want to be the bearer of bad tidings: but DOGE canceled the lease on the facility that processes and stores all the nuclear waste created by the US military. Sorry. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/doge-...

In positive news, if you want a data point of how the new SECDEF is viewed by the troops, the group chat with some former Guard friends has started using “Pete” as a slur against officers, ie, “Your CO scheduled a ht/wt for right after block leave? That’s a real fuckin Pete move”

Alina Habba on veterans who have been fired from government jobs: "Perhaps they're not fit to have a job at this moment."

One of our best security experts sums it up:

So if Republicans refuse to meet constituents in person, can't we use technology to create and deliver town halls to them virtually? I'm thinking like the choir rehearsals that were conducted over zoom during COVID.

The market is tanking, Trump just launched a trade war, we told Cyber Command to stand down against Russia, Trump is rolling out a massive crypto scam, and drug dealers have started selling eggs because the profit margin is better. You aren’t distracting us with culture war BS.

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

The Trump Administration expects Putin to help 2026 and 2028. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/02/u...

“A senior career official at USAID was placed on leave Sunday after he disseminated a detailed memo to staff describing the U.S. government’s “failure” to provide lifesaving assistance around the world because of actions by Trump political appointees.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Today there will be a critical meeting in the White House with the leader of the free world. Donald Trump will also be there.

NEW: Career DOJ spokesman — a Marine Corps vet — is resigning, saying “basic decency” has come to an end and there’s a “hostile and toxic work environment” inside DOJ. Reporting from NBC News:

Don’t let Donold’s AI Gaza video distract you from the fact they’re going to destroy Medicaid and kill millions in exchange for tax cuts for themselves.

This includes facts that would strongly support two cases now before the courts alleging that Musk/DOGE are exercising government authority in violation of the Appointments Clause. @mattbaidc.bsky.social in WaPo with details on USAID "tightly controlled" by DOGE⤵️ h/t @samsteindc.bsky.social

Can't imagine where they got the idea, but earlier in the week, the White House comms director posted (and then reposted) this.

America held hostage

No doubt last night’s purge reflects racism and misogyny. But those wrongs are just a cover for the far more serious evils and dangers that exist here.

He nails it.

Important 🧵: Stanford political scientist uses data to show DOGE is attacking “liberal” agencies, not focusing on waste & inefficiency: “The hardest hit agencies are those that regulate industry, protect public health, and expand access to education.”

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.
