đź“ŚSo for the fuck of it, I tuned into Fox and Newmax the past hour to get their take on this financial suicide today, and neither of them had their market tickers on. I swear to God, you'd think everybody struck gold today. NONE of this would have happened to America without this hideous propaganda.

Damn - any higher and those pants would be an underwire bra.

Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials. Imagine if I had said to law firms that you will not be allowed into government buildings. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me

Red Wave

🚨🚨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...

The party of fiscal responsibility is anything but.

A reversal from FOXnews’ almost total crickets yesterday.

The truth doesn’t matter to him

We posted this a few times, but here it is again — President Reagan warns us about (Trump’s) tariffs: “Beware demagogues ready to declare a trade war against our friends… weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire free world.”

We don’t

Katherine Clark: "What they are doing here is wrecking the infrastructure of Social Security so they can rob the benefit ... it is an outrageous ripoff of the American taxpayer that we are seeing from this administration."

I just introduced the Delete DOGE Act, which – you guessed it – would defund DOGE.

Most corrupt president and administration in US history.

The two most powerful Republican politicians in America - the president and co-president of the United States - are publicly praising and defending and excusing the crimes of a far-right foreign politician who leads a party founded by a Holocaust-denying neo-Nazi. We are in a very, very dark place.

I'm sure the guys who texted war plans to a random journalist probably had a really good and definitely legal reason to fire the top two officials at the NSA.

If we found out Trump was a Russian and/or Chinese asset, Woildn’t it all make more sense?

He’s virtually psychotic.

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

This is state run media’s only reporting on the market collapse today.

You have to hand it to the Orange Turd….no one can screw up a good thing faster (or worse) than he can. His level of incompetence has never been equaled.

“Dumbest motherfucker” is being kind.

The Dow is down over 1500 points in a day.

note also that the US only runs a trade deficit in goods; we are a giant services trade surplus nation. this means that targeting a bilateral goods trade balance of zero with every nation is targeting a total bilateral trade surplus with almost every nation.

Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements

Krugman: “His numbers have nothing to do with reality… bad day for the 🇺🇸 economy…”

The richest man in the world spent more money than most of us will see in our lifetimes to lose a state Supreme Court race by 10 points. And the fact his $25 million was a drop in the bucket compared to what he's spent on other elections is exactly why we must overturn Citizens United.

There are no tariffs being put on Russia. Hmmm

Drug test and financial background check like every other top security position.

Wow. Just wow. How Trump set the tariff rates. This is blithering, staggering, mind-boggling, jaw-cracking, gums-bleeding stupidity.

also worth noting that the moron who did this has the nuclear codes

So he put a 10% tariff on the uninhabited islands of Heard and McDonald. So now he's going after the penguins? Can't make this crap up. www.axios.com/2025/04/02/t...

Mike Pence ?!?!

Citizen’s United has to go. Dark money exploded in its wake.

This is the 20th straight hour of Booker speaking. This is the energy and honesty we need in a Senate leader, not what we have been getting. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Reason number 3 billion why #chatGPT and AI in general can’t be trusted but, boy, I wish this was true: If you’re referring to Donald Trump (DJT) taking office again, that hasn’t happened as of April 1, 2025. Joe Biden is still the U.S. president unless there’s been a major development.

Cory Booker. That’s the post. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Note to #DOGE. If you really want to find waste go to the Department of Defense. The DoD has never passed a full financial audit since audits were first required in 1990. In 2023, the DoD failed its sixth consecutive audit, with only 7 out of 29 sub-agencies passing. DoD budget - $800 BILLION/yr.

Musk can’t be trusted to find any inefficiencies. Like Trump, he just wanted to stay out of jail and/or not be deported.

FYI:

Yes

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.
