And no one in America doubts why he's doing this.

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens. The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago. Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

If you haven’t seen this, you need to! Trump is short-selling America—deliberately tanking the economy so that businesses and entire industries bend the knee and beg him to save them. Thanks, @chrismurphyct.bsky.social, for sounding the alarm. Now, what is Congress going to do about it?

A federal judge ruled that the Trump White House must admit the AP's journalists to news events - ruling its exclusion was "unlawful." Almost two hours later, two AP journalists were rejected from the WH pool to cover a Trump speech. My NPR story: www.npr.org/2025/04/08/n...

These numbers are horrifying. $400 million at Columbia starts to look small

They fired Navy Vice Admiral Shoshana Chatfield—not because she couldn’t do the job, but because she wouldn’t hang up pictures of Trump and Hegseth. This ain’t about merit—it’s about ego.

Trump just shut down the DOJ's unit that investigates crypto fraud. Remember: Trump and his inner circle stand to profit from their crypto investments and a proposed national crypto reserve — while taxpayers could be left holding the bag. It's a new Golden Age for corruption.

This is what's left of the signage for my university's Intercultural Center following the removal of campus DEI initiatives. (via The Parthenon)

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit. While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall. Hello?

Either we all have rights or none of us do. It's really that simple.

60 Minutes found no criminal record for 75% of the Venezuelan migrants the U.S. sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador. https://cbsn.ws/4lC4Vp5

Am I depressed because of what's happening or am I depressed because of the people who somehow didn't see it coming? Both. It's both.

Stop calling them “tariffs”. Call them “import taxes”. The idiots will understand better

Help us spread the word about Saturday’s nationwide mobilizations. Share your story on why you’re hitting the streets: http://bit.ly/April5...

MUST WATCH: Rümeysa Öztürk’s legal team reads her first statement since detention outside of courthouse. The government must immediately release Rümeysa Öztürk from custody. The First Amendment protects all of us — regardless of citizenship status.

The bloodbaths at IMLS (Institute of Museum and Library Services) and NEH (National Endowment for the Humanities) show that Musk's DOGE has NOTHING TO DO WITH SAVING $. IMLS budget: $295M NEH budget: $211M These are tiny drops in the federal spending bucket. This is about ideological control.
