Nailed it.

Are we really just going to stand around and watch this? 😡

Meanwhile in Russia: state TV pundits on Vladimir Solovyov's show took turns mocking Trump. They applauded the damage he is doing to the U.S. and the world order and urged him to keep going for as long as possible. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCX9...

A thing Dems should steal from Trump to keep stuff like this in the public consciousness is hammering nicknames to keep these things top of mind. He's not Pete Hegseth anymore he's "Signal Pete Hegseth" or "Signal Pete" or just "Signal"

Trump's obsession with bilateral makes no sense, and it's the responsibility of his economic team to explain that to him. (I don't know if they're failing, or not even trying.)

Data Bear is a good follow.

Isn’t leading America to total failure in almost every measurable metric an impeachable offense?

Gomez: They got a simple plan defund, defraud, and lie. They're gonna defund Social Security, Medicaid, education, anything that helps the man and woman who's trying to get by to put food on the table or to pay rent. And then they're going to lie about it.

Unprecedented corruption happening right in front of us

Garcia: She's playing cosplaying as an ice agent, running around the country, going down to El Salvador, to prisons. You know, holding guns, dressing up. She is a joke

Must be the kick off for his 2028 campaign.

Apropos of nothing, it's Truman's 11th birthday today. (Shown this morning with new birthday ball).

I had CAHE organizers on to talk about the National Day of Action April 17. This is what we need! Please listen, please share. Link in thread. @actioninhighered.bsky.social

No lie here.

This:

I want to thank everyone who did this. You rose to the (very minor) occasion and made Count 4 possible.

Once again, I ask what anyone has seen in the last ten weeks to make them believe that the 2026/28 elections will be free, fair, & competitive. The far right authoritarian party is now trying to do mass disenfranchisement at the federal level like it has been doing for years at the state level.

Trump’s policies are leading to advice like encouraging you to ‘build a buffer’ against recession.

The next #fiftyfiftyone nationwide protest is Saturday, April 19th. Spread the word. Get organized. Get prepared. There were nearly 5 million people in attendance across the country at yesterday’s protests. Let’s double… no… TRIPLE that. “The People, united, will never be defeated” ✊🏻 #resist

Don’t let up folks.
