He will be good for the economy, they say? Legal organization challenging Trump’s tariffs is backed by some of the biggest names in conservative politics. Tensions continue to rise as factions within the party begin targeting each other. 😂

NASA’s budget would be slashed nearly in half under Trump’s current proposal to Congress—a move that would wipe out billions in ongoing and future missions. Wonder who that benefits? (Sarcasm, of course.)

The Trump administration defied a judge’s order to explain how it planned to bring a wrongly deported Maryland man back to the United States.

The Trump administration is recommending the elimination of the scientific research division at NOAA.

Which pre-historic economic policy will the Trump admin “de-extinct” next? - New cartoon by @andertoon.bsky.social

Many thanks to @maddow.msnbc.com for featuring so much of @wired.com's DOGE reporting last night.

US hairdressers and aestheticians report clients are opting for less expensive services and canceling appointments—worrying signs that US consumers are retrenching

#ProudBlue #MomSky We are seeing this daily from way too many in Congress. The GOP has completely given up their power to the Executive branch. Every single one of them needs to be primaried.

New in PN: Yes, they voted for this "Perhaps the most damning commentary about the US electorate and media is that Trump never even tried to conceal his malicious intentions and deranged policy positions."

Spoke to a lost friend who I haven't spoken to in 20yrs. She said she supports 🍊💩. Don't want to speak to her again.

In a reasonable world, these statements wouldn't be considered anti-Christian but Rubio definitely thinks of them that way: -- The meek shall inherit the earth. -- God and Christ are always superior to Trump. -- Judge not, lest ye be judged. -- It's very difficult for the rich to enter Heaven.

“Taking an increasingly combative stance, the administration defied a federal judge’s order to provide a written road map of its plans to free the man, Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. Trump officials then repeatedly stonewalled her efforts to get the most basic information about him at a hearing.”

Do I have to purchase a Twitter premium checkmark and buy a Tesla to receive the social security I paid into?

Trump is preparing to defund Maine’s public schools after he demanded a “full throated apology” from their governor for not obeying him and she is refusing to do so.

It’s Not Just Trump Destroying Democracy This act will also make it impossible for military deployed in other countries to vote. ❇ open.substack.com/pub/steady/p...

Trump & Maga Mike Johnson want to steal healthcare away from THREE MILLION KIDS of military families who rely on Medicaid. And the bastards are happy about it. Is this what you voted for?

If he’s saying he can use the promised free lawyering “after I leave” office, he’s admitting he committed extortion for personal gain. Another day, another impeachable offense.

How about the lawyers band together and hold them all accountable! The people are with you!

✔️✔️✔️🤬 Thank you, Cheri. 🙏

In a real democracy, insider trading is a crime—even for a president. But when power protects the corrupt, it’s not justice—it’s the rule of law in free fall. Europe sees the scam. The world is watching. So tell us—how many Republicans cashed in while the rest of the world played by the rules?

New York City Mayor Eric Adams confirms that all 6 people aboard the helicopter that crashed in the Hudson River are dead. He also confirms that it was a family of 5 visiting from Spain, two adults and three kids, plus the pilot.

Interesting observation. The usually omnipresent Musk has been relatively MIA since the Wisconsin drubbing.

Due Process For @rawstory.com

Senator Adam Schiff will be writing the White House to demand information on whether there was insider trading within the Trump administration.

WCC's Senior Research Scientist @joeyhinton22.bsky.social says it best: "Cloning has some potential to serve among existing conservation tools, but there are more effective methods to promote survival of Red Wolves. Cloning is a solution in search of a problem that doesn’t exist for Red Wolves."

This past week, the Chinese learned 1) exactly where Trump's pain points are; 2) how much to squeeze them before he flinches; and 3) how little America's partners and allies want to help this president. Highly useful information.

I don't know . . . maybe it wasn't such a good idea to give so much power to a mean-spirited simpleton with no empathy.

He is so toxic.
