Walz: "Remember, Donald Trump has statements about, 'I don't think nuclear war would be that bad.' I guess we're lucky that he went after tariffs instead of that route."

Yesterday was incredible. The official count is in — 5.2 million people joined the #HandsOff protest nationwide. So many are asking: what’s next? Mark your calendars: 4/19 is the next nationwide day of protest.

Another unvaccinated child has died from the measles in Texas. There are over 600 cases in the US right now. Letting children die to a completely preventable disease is absolute insanity.

Free Trade, zero tariffs Elon vs Full Tariff Trump is going to be interesting to watch. The stakes are enormous for the American People Who comes out on top ? I think unfortunately for the economy, in this case , it's Trump.

This is why fighting and paying attention is so important. Our media is broken and sane washes Trump, giving him tons of media coverage now and before he was elected the second time. They had to cover the protests because they were huge and widespread, but they provided minimal coverage.

Since Trump came to power, cowardice has become contagious. From the tech bros to the leaders of Ivy League universities, the great grovel to Trump is well underway. What we need now more than ever is for people to show courage. The American people themselves led the way with the #HandsOffProtests.

If we have normal elections, and Democrats are able to get back in power we need to take a long hard look at how to enact the same kind of anti-corruption laws that helped prevent another Nixon for decades and decades and decades.

Best case he turns off Apr 2nd tariffs Monday. Leaves the 10pct tariffs (not great, but realistic). Elon leaves Doge, which decides to stagger the cuts over 3 yrs, accounting for local impact. That slows the economy, reducing interest rates, reducing payments on debt to affordable levels.

This is my friend Pam and her husband Ron. He is a Vietnam veteran. They have both been involved in POW causes for decades. Yesterday, at a hands off rally in St Joseph, Missouri, a man drove around them in his pickup yelling at them. MAGA folks are not patriots. They never were.

INCREDIBLE: Literally MILLIONS of people took part in “Hands Off!” protests against Trump and Elon Musk across all 50 states and globally today, organized by a pro-democracy movement in response to what they call a “hostile takeover” and attack on American rights and freedoms. #HandsOff

Exactly! Fox "News" is a poison and it is designed to keep its viewers insulated and controlled.

There’s no denying it anymore: the pro-democracy movement is finally back on offense. Trump’s presidency is an unmitigated disaster. MAGA is imploding under the weight of its own lies, grifts, and failures. They’re not strong—they’re desperate. They’re flailing. And they know it.

Yes, prices will skyrocket. Yes, business will go bankrupt. Yes, stocks will crash. Yes, unemployment will rise. But if we hold on, the tariffs will be worth it. If fully implemented we can finally achieve the true American dream: rich people not having to pay ANY taxes.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

The fact that everything around us is burning to the ground & some people still have no clue that they voted for the arsonist or are complicit in the arson is absolutely mind boggling. People are ok with it so long as the black woman isn’t their President 🤯. America, we have a problem!
