BREAKING: Famed Economist Paul Krugman just told Ari Melber: "This Tariff pause is [still] a tariff rate that is higher overall than Smooth-Hawley. This is a bigger shock to the economy than any trade policy in any country’s history."

If you feel like being inspired by a big law firm, here's the opening to Sussman Godfrey's lawsuit against Trump and his executive order targeting the firm. It still is amazing other firms caved quickly to Trump's mob-like and unconstitutional shakedown. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It's time for veterans to unite and pushback against the attacks on our healthcare, benefits, and community. The Unite for Veterans march in DC on D-Day this year will bring together the full range of the veterans community to demand our rights as veterans of earlier generations did too!

What we are seeing is a purge—of the administrative state, of the universities, of expertise—that is consistent with events like the Cultural Revolution in China in the 1960s and ’70s, or the dismantling of the tsarist civil service after the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

“Public health isn’t the sum of individual choices. It’s our collective agreement to protect the most vulnerable among us: the elderly, the immunocompromised, the uninsured, the people who can’t isolate or work remotely.”

If El Salvador decided that some of the prisoners the U.S. sent should be executed, would there be any recourse for the prisoners under the American legal system? "Don’t tell me that it couldn’t happen. Tell me *why* it couldn’t happen."

If you haven’t seen this, you need to! Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them. Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm. Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Harris Faulkner's Fox News show has been on for 20 minutes now. She has not mentioned tariffs or stocks once and a stock ticker isn't being displayed. Strong state media vibes.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Senator Booker broke Senator Thurmond’s record for the longest speech on the Senate floor. Thurmond used his time to stand in the way of progress. Booker is using his to stand for it. This is powerful. This is the America we’re fighting for. This is our moral moment & we must all answer the call.
