The everyday Americans who voted for Trump because they thought he’d lower the price of eggs are paying $10 for eggs now. Trump decided to prioritize culture war issues instead of delivering on campaign promises, and his approval rating is reflecting that.

None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂

Be clear about what’s happening: Trump and his administration, and thus America, is siding with Putin and Russia against a United States ally.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

Russell Vought is the lesser known of Trump's Axis of Evil Trump intends for Vought, an architect of #Project2025, to be OMB Director Democrats are filibustering his appointment tonight Sen. Merkley said Vought is “probably the most dangerous man in America right now"

I see more criticism here of Democrats in Congress than I do condemnation of Republicans. And yet it is the GOP who are enabling Trump. It tells me a lot when I see you regularly bash our side but say nothing, ever, about the other. Reflect on your choices. You may be helping the fascists.

REAGAN: “Our peaceful trading partners are not our enemies; they are our allies… beware of demagogues ready to declare a trade war against our friends—weakening our economy, national security, and the entire free world—while cynically waving the 🇺🇸 flag.” Trump’s bad ideas are not new.

I have nothing against stupid people; I just don't want them running my country. Does that make me a bad person?

Time for a freeze on all Trump firing actions and funding freezes for any government organization responsible for public safety!

For those who voted for Republicans and 36.33% who didn’t vote. This is on you. Husbands are going to lose their wives. Children are going to lose their mothers. Parents are going to lose their daughters. We fucking told you, they would do a nationwide ban on abortion.

This is a disastrous presidency already, actually kinda shocking even to me, who expected it to be bad

John and Mariko forever ❤❤😭

Happy Birthday to the leader of the free world. Slava Ukraini🇺🇦

Hi, I’m God. You all died in 2016. And yes, this is Hell.

Dear price of eggs Trump voters, Not only aren’t they any cheaper, there’s an actual shortage because of the raging Bird Flu we’re not getting any public information about because the food safety & public health agencies responsible for that shit have basically been shut down. Bravo.

As a rape survivor, the very thought of having a sexual abusing Commander-in-Chief and a sexual abusing Secretary of Defense makes me want to throw up.

Since Monday, Trump has: -Halted civil rights investigations -Suspended public health advisories -Frozen infrastructure spending on roads and bridges -Rescinded an executive order prohibiting discrimination by federal contractors How does this help working people?

Egg prices hit record highs this week. Much of the increase is the result of egg shortages brought on by avian flu. How has Trump responded? By ordering public health agencies to cease communications with the public. His presidency is a threat to our health and our wallets.

I love it when Robert Reich is on long enough to speak and really unwind. He is a smart cat, and I learn something from him...always.

Any chance there are three more Republicans in the Senate who care enough about the country to stop a wildly unqualified drunken lech from becoming the Secretary of Defense?

When first responders lose their lives to service-related cancers, their families deserve the full measure of support they’ve earned. I just introduced a bill with Sen. Amy Klobuchar & Sen. Kevin Cramer to ensure that's the case.

Fuck Pete Hegseth.

Gaslighting is the entire GOP playbook. From ‘biggest crowd ever’ to ‘normal tourist visit,’ they’re betting you’ll ignore reality. If we allow them to keep rewriting history, they’ll keep burning the truth to the ground.

The truth of January 6th can't be erased. Watch the pardoned criminals brutally attacking police inside the Capitol and see what some call 'patriotism.' No spin, just facts. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/revisiting...

Sickening. I’m sickened.

As best you can, ignore him.

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity
