Imagine you were dealing with a person who would report that there was two and there was also this other two but didn't want to add them up to get to four, because getting all the way to four felt like making a statement and they didn't want to alarm anybody or be accused of making an accusation.

There is no doubt Trump has made the US less safe. He is rolling back clean air and water measures for big businesses. His incompetent cabinet members alone show he has no regard for the people. RFK and Musk have no idea what they are doing. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory www.rawstory.com/trump-air-cr...

I would like to point out that the executive branch claiming the power to mete out life/death sentences seems like a separation of powers issue as well

Pierre Poilievre, leader of Canada's Conservative Party, promises to introduce legislation to limit politicians' financial and lobbying-related conflicts of interest

The statement by the team of Columbia University graduate and legal green card holder Mahmoud Khalil is heartbreaking. Anyone who cares about freedom of speech should be against the Louisiana judge ruling to deport him.

Everyone who fights and works for Ukraine, and everyone who helps 🇺🇦 from all over the world, is not defending something abstract. You are defending the people of an innocent nation, who simply want to live. Thank you.💙

Going back to see my favorite street dog rescue. Hard to believe just how healthy Shaq is and how well he looks

weird, what could explain this

Just a reminder that these are the people purporting to be outraged by antisemitism on campus. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/u...

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

THIS 🤨 ain’t this the truth

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

It has been 18 days since we learned that those involved in Signalgate recklessly endangered the lives of American pilots. The fact that there has been no Congressional investigation is an abomination. This should outrage every single Member of Congress.

I still can't get over how rapey the vibe of this tweet is from the White House, shocked it's still up. It sounds like trump wrote it.

This should hardly be surprising. Maybe there should have been some sustained coverage of Trump's threats during the election campaign?

finance.yahoo.com/news/live/st... And Trump is bragging inside the Oval right how his millionaire bros made millions yesterday And now this Support @adamschiff.com Senator Adam Schiff's investigation of Trump's insider trading

its crazy watching the president openly brag about using the presidency to extort law firms into working pro bono on the post-presidency legal defense he thinks he'll need when he's out of office

THIS 🤨 everyone of them is a traitor—today’s Republican party and that racist lying convicted felon who is an insurrectionist.

Trump: “He made $2 and a half billion today and he made ‘900 million.’” On Wednesday morning, as the stock market opened, Trump tweeted urging people to buy stocks, knowing full well he was about to pause the tariffs. We need an immediate investigation

the old george carlin line “it’s a big club and you ain’t in it” never feels as true as it did when the president manipulated the economy by almost causing a recession, and yukked it up with other rich assholes about how much money they made destroying people’s savings

“they are getting rich directly off the market chaos that’s ruining your retirement and gutting your investments” is the kind of shit that makes people very angry

Check out this video of trump introducing Charles Schwab. If you listen carefully, trump says that he made $2.5B while the guy next to him made $900M. This was posted by Margot Martin, special assistant to trump. The tariff stunt was, at least partially, market manipulation.

If you watched the Oval Office, Trump targeted two individuals whose only offense was saying the truth. Then he targeted a law firm because it sued FoxNews. It ended with him totaling the money Big Law firms that have capitulated owe him in pro bono. We cannot give up. We must all commit to fight.

We could have had Kamala.

When you bow down to Trump, he will claim it shows that his conspiracy theories are correct, and only encourage his authoritarianism. Thank you, Big Law cowards.

Creepy as hell. 🤡

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price. Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

Who made the most money in the stock market off of Trump’s tariff madness, and how much did they make? Therein lies the intent.

NEW: An unsigned interagency agreement calls for the Dept of Labor to reimburse the US DOGE Service up to **$1.3 million** for work done by four DOGE affiliates over 18 months. Musk has previously stated that DOGE staffers would cost taxpayers nothing. from me and @timmarchman.bsky.social:
