The Strategic Petroleum Reserve has been handed over to a private company. In an oligarchy, control of national assets is privatized. The US DoE web site says this contract was awarded after a "rigorous competitive selection process". How stupid do they think we are? oilprice.com/Latest-Energ...

Big news: on a bipartisan basis the Senate just voted to reject Trump's tariffs on Canada. The House has to vote on it next, where it's less likely to pass, but the cracks are starting to form. Trump is losing support from Republicans on his costly trade war.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?

On April 20, 2025 or before, Trump is preparing to invoke the Insurrection Act of 1807 under a false/manufactured pretense that the southern border is under invasion. It will be the precursor to martial law in America. Call your representatives. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

A reminder about the Smithsonian: the Vice President has a seat on the Board of Regents (defined by law). But he’s not chair of the Board, or vice chair, and he’s not on the Board’s executive committee. Structurally he has one vote.

When I was 17, I opened my first checking account w/a couple hundred bucks. I didn’t meet the min monthly deposit, so they kept charging fees until I owed them money. It stuck with me—I still won’t bank w/BofA. There’s no upside to this move for anyone who isn’t rich—just cruelty for cruelty’s sake

This is a naked, vicious attack our right to vote; an effort to illegally bully their way into the policies of the SAVE Act because they know they can't pass it through Congress. Trump has no authority to do this and we must fight it every step of the way. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

🧵I know what the Trump administration is doing to the country because they’ve already done it to rural America. They stripped public schools of funding. They closed our hospitals. They sold family farms for parts. They let our infrastructure rot. And then they gerrymandered us to keep us quiet.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.
