Maybe everyone should be forced to advise mid sized companies for a few years because you can only have a conversation about stiffing your suppliers to buy a boat so many times before you realize how awful people can be

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

Important to start admitting that we’re living under Schrodinger’s constitution—one that is not in effect whenever it constrains Republican powers, but is in effect whenever it can be used to stymie democrats or suppress opposition.

I will vote for the first candidate who tells me they're going to make the biggest government possible. Reacher-sized agencies. Braun Strowman-level social benefits. Government so big it starts belching out National Parks and free healthcare. Chungus State.

"Republican senators find themselves in an unusual position these days: begging Trump officials to release funds they themselves appropriated." Honestly, is there a more pathetic, contemptible collection of cowards & simps in the entire world?

The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame. The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight. It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.

Again, I don't understand why Fortune 500 & Wall Street CEOs are silent about this. "They want low taxes" & "they're in the tank for Trump" are not convincing explanations. Or, if they are, then they're idiots & we never should have treated them as savvy business genius Masters Of The Universe.

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

The proposed partnership with Russia is not only a disaster for the values we’ve for 80 years sought to engender around the world, it’s a disaster for American power itself.

Elon Musk is a tick who sucks $8 million per day out of the federal govt and gives back diseases like armored Cybertrucks. Tesla was saved by a $465 million federal loan in 2009 and buoyed to success by EV tax credits (thanks Obama). All while paying virtually no federal taxes. Who's the parasite?

🚨Elon Musk’s DOGE operatives are attempting to access confidential tax information — tax returns, bank data, Social Security numbers — for millions of Americans. Illegal access can lead to jail time under federal law. @wyden.senate.gov and I are investigating and fighting back.

Despite recent crashes, DOGE is firing 100s of workers who maintain air traffic control. 🚨One worker said AI is identifying the wrong people for firing. It searches for the term “probationary” thinking it’s just a label for new staff. It’s not. It also applies to newly promoted, experienced staff.
