BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year. Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

Consumer sentiment is now lower than it was during the Great Recession and the second lowest reading since 1952. The guy who inherited hundreds of millions from his father and squandered it now inherited an economy that was the envy of the world and squandered it.

BREAKING — DOGE will descend upon Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) buildings tomorrow, an agency source tells me. FDIC is responsible for insuring all commercial/personal US bank accounts for up to $250k and regulating banks. Scary in light of Trump’s manipulation of markets this week.

Yep!

Over $2 trillion has been erased from the stock market so far today.

Out of touch doesn’t even begin to describe Trump’s take on what he’s just inflicted on American families.

Excellent point. I do not want my tax dollars going to the billionaires.

Hands ✋️ up if you love this lady

Reminder... We are dealing with a TRAITOR.

This is going to be the vibe coding version of the Chernobyl disaster, a wholly preventable failure caused by a combination of hubris, incompetence and design flaws.

When I was 17, I opened my first checking account w/a couple hundred bucks. I didn’t meet the min monthly deposit, so they kept charging fees until I owed them money. It stuck with me—I still won’t bank w/BofA. There’s no upside to this move for anyone who isn’t rich—just cruelty for cruelty’s sake

mm yes more of that populism I've heard so much about

As an American who loves her Country I am beyond heartsick that my Country is now being steered by this cabal of corrupt, sick, demented, treasonistic, lunatic assholes & that we have now lost every good friend we ever had in the world. It's not bad enough that he (they) have divided us as a Country

Every Republican senator who voted to confirm Hegseth holds responsibility for the Signal catastrophe. Everyone was aware Hegseth was completely unqualified and in over his head as the Secretary of Defense. And if any soldier would have lost their lives, they would have blood on their hands.

"We don't just classify information because it's interesting... We classify it to keep the men and women who serve our country safe." – Chris Meagher 18 top officials discussed war plans on Signal. The only one who acted responsibly? A journalist. This is a national security failure.

It's a bad idea to give this guy your car keys. It's a TERRIBLE idea to give him the keys to The U.S. DOD

It’s a pretty safe bet that Russia and China were following along with Hegseth’s group chat too. Truly staggering levels of carelessness and incompetence.

Pete Hegseth is a danger to this country and our men and women in uniform.

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

As a reminder, Joseph Welch — who defied McCarthy and brought him low with the “no sense of decency” line — was a partner at the prestigious firm of Hale and Dorr (now WilmerHale). It’s not only possible for leading firms to resist; it’s essential.

OK FOLKS. It’s time to hit the streets and show this authoritarian regime that we won’t just sit quietly while they destroy the country. Dozens of movement orgs are co-sponsoring mobilization events on April 5th ACROSS THE COUNTRY. ✊ Find your local event here, and pass it on:

Pass it on!

This story is fucking bonkers

Former FBI agent John Buma, a whistleblower who accused the bureau of suppressing his investigative work on topics including Rudy Guiliani's ties to suspected Russian agents, was arrested yesterday in New York and charged with disclosure of confidential information, per an FBI spokesperson.

Then there's this....
