Masked ICE agents arrested Newark Mayor Ras Baraka while he peacefully protested. If it wasn’t clear before: the Trump regime is run by Nazis, and ICE is the Gestapo.

Imagine if Biden had said people would have to tighten their belts, do without, suffer through an austere Christmas while he golfed, hawked meme coins and bragged about lavishing the Oval Office in gaudy gold. They’d all be shitting wild kittens.

Promises made. Promises kept. Latinos for Trump - Go straight to El Salvador. No due process. Thanks for playing. Blacks for Trump - you’re DEI. DEI bad. Pro-Palestine for Trump - Gaza is being cleared out to make room for Trump resorts. You’re welcome. 🧵

He's also the president who killed things like this. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

I don’t know who needs to know this, but I worked in eye tracking and biometrics for a very long time and while irises are more unique than fingerprints, buttholes are more unique than both

‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’ One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

I’m so confused by the folks who said that raising the minimum wage would increase the price of every day goods while also being okay with tariffs raising the price of every day goods… I reckon they are okay paying higher prices as long as it doesn’t help anyone making a minimum wage.

you can say 'Merry Christmas' again. you just can't have any presents

BUT WAIT!!! THERE’S MOOOORE!!! Looks like it confused Ballotpedia. They could have sworn that address meant he was running in Virginia and not Arkansas!

Who does this guy think he is, Tom Cotton? Puts Virginia address on candidacy form to run in Arkansas...

Trump is the first US president to lose a Canadian election. #cdnpoli #ElbowsUp #NeverPoliviere #never51state

It really didn't have to be this way. IF we elected Harris, we wouldn't be in a tariff crisis, nobody would be losing needed jobs, and our economy would be just fine. Biden didn't cause this, people who voted for Trump did, and they own every damn bit of it. Time to take our damn country back.

Herschel Walker vibes.

If you live in Arkansas: and your house was destroyed, and your neighbor was killed, and Trump denied your ignorant governor resources to help your state, and you don’t know how you’ll survive, and now, for the first time, you’re regretting voting for Trump… Good. Let that sink in.

So Hegseth had a dirty internet connection for his personal computer run into his office…which is also a SCIFF. You can’t bring ANY devices into a SCIFF, and dude hauled in his personal computer… How dumb can this guy be? Apparently, very. www.kxii.com/2025/04/24/h...

I want a president who is tougher on Putin than he is on Harvard.

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

there really is no alternative to tearing up CBP and ICE root and branch

“DEI” includes philosophy, religion, and the Spanish language

After cutting funding for public schools to buy fresh, healthy food from local farmers, this move is like sitting in the Amen Corner on Sundays while stabbing your neighbors in the back every other day of the week. #farmers #usda www.arkansasonline.com/news/2025/ap...

Asking for, um, a country?

More in No, Other People: New poll: “America would be better off if more people worked in manufacturing.” • 80% of Americans agree • 20% disagree “I would be better off if I worked in a factory.” • 25% of Americans agree • 73% disagree • 2% currently work in a factory

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.

“Won’t losing subject-matter experts lead directly to fraud, waste and abuse? Yes,” Kerr-Davis told employees. “Things are going to break, and they’re going to break fast. We know that, but hopefully we’ll be able to get some support.” Efficiency!!! 🙄 federalnewsnetwork.com/agency-overs...

TL;DR: The new U.S. tariff rate against our two largest trading partners is either 10%, 25% or 35%, and so far no one I've reached out to at the White House is able to tell me which.

A federal judge ruled that the Trump White House must admit the AP's journalists to news events - ruling its exclusion was "unlawful." Almost two hours later, two AP journalists were rejected from the WH pool to cover a Trump speech. My NPR story: www.npr.org/2025/04/08/n...

Kidnapped citizens. Congress won’t act. SCOTUS corrupt. SAVE Act dangling. A military parade…? DOGE raping and pillaging our govt agencies. Violating our Constitution. War drums in the near distance. Millions braced for impact. #SheShed Need I say more…

I would be making a big deal out of this if I were an elected Democrat

"Hubris has been the organizing principle of Trump’s life. It has grown into the organizing principle of a White House made in his image. The hubris is everywhere you look. These people are adrift in self-spun fantasias; they are utterly high on their own supply." www.thebulwark.com/p/hubris-is-...

Everyone staying in the market for Black Monday be like…

Black Monday, the stock market crash, occurred on October 19, 1987. The Dow Jones dropped 22.61% (508.32 pts). This remains the largest single-day decline in history. Monday, April 7, 2025 said, “Hold my beer!” Speaker Johnson has blood on his hands. #SheShed

Here in the Delta, we were going to build a flash-freezing facility for sweet potatoes. And then? Tariffs hit. This isn’t just about potatoes. It’s about building a new economy in a place that has given this country so much and been given so little in return. www.farmherhallie.com/post/when-ta...

And the winner is:

🚨🚨Calling all North Carolina voters!! Here is a list of every voter that Jefferson Griffin is trying to disenfranchise, please if you are a NC voter check to see if your name is on here, you have 15 days to cure your ballot to make sure your vote counts. thegriffinlist.com/assets/griff...

First they didn’t check their data and put a tariff on penguins, then they didn’t even do the math right. No wonder the Dow dropped like a rock. www.aei.org/economics/pr...

Leave the schadenfreude aside here for a moment. You can make a car go forward if you floor the gas and put the emergency brake on… but you shouldn’t. Trying to use monetary policy to fix bad fiscal policy is no smarter, and equally bad for the vehicle.
