Watching Kristi Noem's face as Democratic House Rep. Lauren Underwood absolutely torched her on the Constitution in the House Oversight Committee hearing was amazing. Bravo, Lauren!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

If you’re tired of watching Chuck Schumer fold while Trump steamrolls everything in his path—do something about it. CALL. YOUR. DEMOCRATIC SENATOR. Tell them: we need new leadership. Schumer’s had years to rise to the moment—and he hasn’t. We need a fighter, not a doormat.

•••••BREAKING••••• Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney stated an unassailable fact to Trump: “Canada won’t be for sale — EVER!”

UNDERWOOD: Do you believe that the US government has the authority to deport American citizens NOEM: No, and we are not deporting US citizens UNDERWOOD: Several American citizens have been deported

NEW YORK: “Please detail what your red line is, and at what point you’ll actually stand up for the constitution you swore an oath to defend.” An older woman is carried out by law enforcement for asking questions @repmikelawler (R) doesn’t like.

When the President of the United States says he doesn’t know if he should uphold the Constitution, it should be a searing red line for every American. If you let him ignore ANY aspect of the Constitution you embolden him to ignore more of it, including the parts that secure YOUR freedoms & rights.

RFK Jr. is dangerous.

"Pertussis, or whooping cough, is now spreading at a rate the U.S. hasn’t seen since vaccines were introduced in 1948." It's No Coincidence. Public health funding is being slashed. Vaccine misinformation is spreading. Fewer people are getting vaccinated. This is the result.

I am not often quoted in @nytimes.com DealBook, but I hope the business community is listening.

Allison Riggs won her election to North Carolina’s Supreme Court by 734 votes Her opponent has since been trying to overturn the result With 1 Senate and 14 House seats up in 2026 And the GOP’s constant attempts to gerrymander the state This decision for Riggs could flip both Houses of Congress

Louder for the voters in the back!

Page One must have been crowded. So NYT puts it on Page 13. 🤡 @schooley.bsky.social

A gift to the NRA.

Number of US gas stations currently selling for $1.98: zero. 🤡 www.gasbuddy.com

Because movie tickets weren’t expensive enough.

Pre-Trump tariff price &14.99. Trump tariff price will be $36.

Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today: He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution He’s fine with a recession Americans can do with less Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

Now we know why he didn’t have his hand on the Bible when he took the Oath of Office.

It is horrifying that so many continue to follow this delusional idiot!

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Hell yeah! Put this on loop—this wise man speaks for me. 🔥

This guy outside the Capitol seems to really be enjoying his weekend. What a vibe.

JUST IN: Before announcing he’d step down as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffett said trade can be weaponized as an “act of war.” Let that sink in—one of the most trusted voices in American business just called out Trump’s tariffs what they really are: economic warfare.

President Trump’s latest attempt to erase our history and restore Confederate memorials around the country, despite ongoing opposition from communities who support their removal, is a blatant attempt to mask RACISM and WHITE SUPREMACY as PATRIOTISM - Margaret Huang

Your reminder that none of this shit is fucking normal.

Holy crap. Oklahoma has put 2020 election denial into the public school curriculum. Maybe MTG is right. Maybe we really do need a red/blue divorce. The fuck.

Yes, he posted this! 😣 Trump is terrifyingly sick! 😖

Donald Trump just had the worst 100 days in presidential history. He is hoping for us all to get complacent. Not going to happen.

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

As Trump works to cut off federal funding for PBS, Mr. Rogers' words still ring true.

This Musk DOGE fiasco is only getting worse and worse. And now WE the taxpayers are going to be stuck with the check for this disaster! I go through the math. open.substack.com/pub/theweekl...

The facts are the facts: their proposed budget is not going to make life easier for 99% of us. I can’t WAIT until the day that Republicans decide to show up and work for the people who elected them.

Here it is. A timetable of 100 days of corruption. Breathtaking. Heartbreaking. We cannot let this stand.

He thinks we’re stupid like his base ‼️

Empty Shelves projected.

I went to the Senate floor to tell a story about Trump’s first 100 days - a story of daily, norm shattering corruption. I laid out 40 different corrupt acts - each one alone could have taken down previous presidents. 1/ A 🧵 of my speech. People need to know this story.

SCOOP: A young man with no government experience who hasn’t even finished his undergrad degree is working for Elon Musk’s DOGE at the Department of Housing and Urban Development and has been tasked with using AI to rewrite the agency’s rules and regulations.

What a hack

Are retailers allowed to say the reason why when store shelves are empty, or would that be a “hostile and political act”?
