Donald Trump’s March 20 executive order aims to eliminate data silos. It could undermine privacy in the process.

Damn straight!

Several sources tell me a passel of high profile tech and also finance leaders is making a trip to Mar-a-Lago to read Trump the riot act — um talk common sense — to him on the tariffs. Their million dollar donations to the inauguration is turning into billions in losses.

Unconscionable

There's a lot going on, God knows, but don't miss that the President of the United States is using the full force of the Federal government, as well as tax dollars, to punish a state because its Governor... refused to do as he instructed. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/02/u...

This must be stopped!

No executive order has the potential to do more permanent damage to our constitutional system than the one Trump signed last week targeting free and fair elections. It is both an unconstitutional power grab and a clear violation of federal law. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Wow!

Bingo

Infuriating

THIS IS INSANE.

There are no tariffs being put on Russia. Hmmm

Russia gets no Trump tariffs. Intriguing. In fairness to Russia, its only exports are death, misery, chaos, war crimes, and despair…and we’re fully supplied by the Trump Administration for those.

Dark Pence is back.

Apart from everything else—his mendacity, his malevolence, his depravity—Trump is just … dumb.

“As a little girl growing up in Chippewa Falls,” Judge Susan Crawford said in her victory speech, “I never could have imagined that I’d be taking on the richest man in the world for justice in Wisconsin. And we won.”

Turns out the world‘s richest man is just not that popular, maybe that would change if he gave money to things like childhood cancer research instead of cutting it

Obviously not about cutting waste. Governmental genocide

Obscene

"If America hasn't broken your heart, you haven't loved her enough." Corey Booker, just now.

💯

Bless Cory Booker for staying up all night to speak out against these evil morons. This is the kind of fight that we are all looking for.

Good!

We’ve faced a ridiculous amount of lies that there’s no structural or systemic racism in America. This book documents the scale of the racial wealth gap, how it happens, & reasons why this is a terrible burden for everyone who cares about equality and justice. www.americaamerica.news/p/plundering...

Nearly every Republican in the Senate voted to overturn a Biden Admin rule that limited bank overdraft fees to $5. This rule, initially established by the now gutted CFPB, was expected to save consumers $5 billion annually. The GOP is the party of junk fees.
