He's openly defying the courts. Both in the Garcia case and the AP case. This is slam-dunk impeachment stuff. And the SC has said impeachment is the ONLY remedy here, because the president is "immune" from prosecution. apnews.com/article/trum...

Oohhhhh Blue Prince BLUEPRINTS 🤦‍♂️

The bipartisan belief that America would be a better place if *other people* worked in a factory. www.ft.com/content/8459...

Bill Maher, like James Carville, are ten years past their expiration date. Neither one have been worth listening to or right about anything important for a decade, and yet we can't seem to get them off our TVs.

Wow, Judge Xinis is having absolutely none of this slow-walking, "we can't say that" bullshit.

"Those exposures" The conclusions have already been written. It's common vaccines, fluoride, and something extra dumb like pasteurization. BET.

Our cat came home today! Thin as a rake but whole and purring and hasn't left laps all night. Not sure how she found her way home after four weeks but she did ❤️❤️❤️

“Put simply, the Court once again told the Justice Department that it is fine to ignore a trial judge’s order, and even an appeals court order, because, when push comes to shove, SCOTUS will make Trump’s problems go away.” @atrupar.com open.substack.com/pub/aaronrup...

Blue Prince huh? Okay, I'll bite. Downloading now, checking it out after work.

Most of the mainstream press correctly pointed out, in paragraph 14, that the "reciprocal" tariffs are not reciprocal at all but are unilateral tariffs designed to punish trade imbalances. Then they went right on calling them "reciprocal tariffs" in every headline for days.

Contempt of congress.

Trump is going to “instinctively” select certain US companies and exempt them from tariffs. Don’t overthink it. He’s asking for bribes.

The entire Trump agenda can accurately be summed up as: "We want to be a country stuck in the 70s and 80s, competing with the rest of the world as they move into the future." You couldn't conceive a better recipe to decimate the country.

Mugger pulls out a gun, holds it to your head: GIVE ME ALL YOUR MONEY YOU: here you go just don't kill me! Mugger: HAHA you idiot it's not even loaded. GOP: A MASTER STRATEGY FROM A BRILLIANT PRESIDENT!

GOP on the news doing victory laps and the press lets it go unchallenged. 1. DOW down 10% since Trump took office. 2.DOW down over 1,500 points since April 1. The market today wasn't a win. It was like being down 35-3 in a football game and scoring a touchdown. Great job, it's now 35-9.

Yesterday: "Trump has nerves of steel and will not back down when tariffs go into effect tomorrow. They are NECESSARY." Today: "Genius Trump is backing off on Tariffs for 90 days because he has achieved total victory over every country in the world." It's a total clown show. 🤡

This story lands especially hard after Trump spent gave a big speech today about how awesome it is to be a coal miner, with coal miners behind him as a prop. Then he signed an EO to prop up the failing coal industry.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Acting IRS commissioner to resign over deal to share immigrants’ tax data with ICE to help deport them, AP sources say.

Trump used an emergency powers law to impose tariffs — but that law contains no reference to tariffs and no president has ever used it for this purpose.

Neat, houses were too cheap. They were practically giving them away. This will fix it!

President Donald Trump's administration canceled a FEMA program that helped Louisiana prepare for hurricanes. The state had $721M in applications for money in the pipeline.

1. Oh, nice to see you here! Welcome! 2. Took ya long enough! 🤣
