Trump’s budget proposal would fully eliminate Head Start More than 1 million parents wouldn't be able to go to work under the proposal, the National Head Start Association warns.

@gregcasar.bsky.social: "Elon Musk gets $8 million a day in federal government contracts and subsidies. $65 a day is how much your average senior gets on Social Security just to barely survive on after working their entire life."

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

The President of the United States engaged in insider trading, and laughed about it. He is not exempt from the law. Where the fuck is Congress?

Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?

Any traders with inside information that Trump was going to walk back his tariffs — some of them, presumably, Trump family members and cronies — just made a fortune. It all feels like chaos until you look more closely at who is winning.

My Bibles used to cost $2.85 each from China, so with a $3.56 tariff, selling them at $60 isn't sustainable. I'm forced to raise the price to $129.00. - Grandpa RICO

A normal Congress would launch the impeachment process this morning.

ICE: "We must punish immigrants for NOT paying taxes!" IRS: "But they do pay taxes." ICE: "Well, then help us punish them for PAYING taxes!"

Everyday I think about the fact that iceland jailed the people responsible for their financial crisis

When they loudly scream the quiet part in market manipulations.

“The descent to hell is easy and those who begin by worshipping power, soon worship evil.” -C. S. Lewis

This is incredibly dangerous. If he can get away with this he will open a flood gate of targeted investigations of private citizens. We are stepping through the looking glass of fascism in real time! Congress needs to act immediately.

Former FBI agent John Sullivan: "Chris Wray identified domestic terrorism as the number one threat facing Americans... Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, under Trump's direction, have actually lessened the personnel size of that team.... You are being made less safe by the choices that are being made."

Biggest mistakes I'm seeing in early reporting (thread): 1. Tariffmageddon isn't over: Lotsa tariffs to account for, but the average tariff rate is only down around one quarter. So most of the pain of Liberation Day is still with us.

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens. The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago. Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

Good morning. Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors. It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.
