The budget bill passed by the house would increase deficits (and debt) by at least $2.4T over 10 years. That is, indeed, outrageous. My @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social Chart

Remember how Trump accused Biden of abandoning North Carolina's Republican communities after Hurricane Helene? Well their governor was just denied additional FEMA aid by Trump today. Josh Hawley is publicly begging for FEMA aid for Missouri. So is Sarah Huckabee Sanders in Arkansas.

There's a lotta concern about the short run (ie recession or not) implications of Trump's agenda. Dani is right to point to the long run as far far more consequential.

The GOP "Big Beautiful" budget achieved its goal: tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk. How did they afford it? By slashing benefits, gutting social programs, and raising taxes on the working class. Call (202) 224-3121 to tell your Rep this bill is bullshit.

We can throw away $120,000,000 flipping fighter jets into the sea, but can’t afford to give the pilots healthcare when they retire.

This is a shockingly mistaken understanding of due process by Stephen Miller. It is likely this misunderstanding that is informing the President’s misunderstanding.

Foreign films are a national security threat? We’re shaking our heads. We’d laugh if this wasn’t such dangerous, authoritarian rhetoric. What other countries do this? Russia and China.

Lil Marco is learning that diplomacy is difficult, despite the fact that his boss promised to end this war in 24 hours with one phone call & said it “wouldn’t even be that hard to do.” What he won’t say is this isn’t getting done because Putin WANTS war.

It’s abundantly clear that Donald Trump is using combating antisemitism as a pretext to enact his authoritarian agenda. If he was truly interested in protecting the Jewish community, he wouldn’t stock his administration with antisemites. The media needs to do a better job of reporting this.

Hear @davidhogg.bsky.social out- Yes he will ruffle feathers. Democrats represent the people. Dems are working families; we believe in creating opportunity for all- but sometimes our message does not connect because people do not feel connected with our messengers. He’s trying to change that.

They other day I met with an old friend who witnessed firsthand how Viktor Orbán, Prime Minister of Hungary, took over the country's democracy and turned it into an authoritarian state. Here are some lessons that I took away from our conversation. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-pla...

The people of Iowa--the American people--understand the danger posed by a government that illegally snatches people off the streets and sends them to a foreign prison without any court review. If it could happen to Kilmar Abrego Garcia it could happen to you. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/u...

The federal agency that delivers $1.5T a year in earned benefits to 73M retired workers, their survivors, & poor & disabled Americans is engulfed in crisis—further undermining the already struggling org’s ability to provide reliable & timely service to vulnerable customers. It's a "cycle of doom."
