Trump's failed Tariffs will cost at least 770,000 jobs in the US by the end of the year. If Trump continues his deranged Tariff war for longer, that number is expected to increase drastically. budgetlab.yale.edu/research/sta...

The so-called “moderate” GOP position on Medicaid cuts is no cuts above $500 billion. Hello? That would mean 18 million children and 2 million adults with disabilities lose health care coverage, according to the latest estimates. What’s “moderate” about that?

there is a decent chance i never spend a single dime at target again in my life www.startribune.com/target-gave-...

Thou shalt demand retailers tell you how much prices have gone up because of tariffs.

Trump is trying to fix the rules so he gets to rule forever; following the authoritarian playbook to the letter: - harass or co-opt the press - weaken the lawyers - silence universities and student protest - cut off funding for the opposition But we won’t let him win.

Court denies the majority of the federal government's motion to dismiss this case, allowing the case to proceed to further fact-finding and the possibility of adjudicating a remedy.

Let’s see the Democratic reps in Congress make use of all the available tools

Republicans are full-speed ahead on their budget plan to deliver $5.3 trillion in tax cuts for billionaires—at the same time they're promising that Medicaid is safe from cuts. The truth is, Republicans can't keep both of these promises.

He feeds off of violence & fame. He'd happily start WWII from his badly decorated bunker. He thinks it's like a video game. He'd love to drop some nukes. Especially on annoying lefties. Next to immigrants, we're his favorite #scapegoats. We've got to #DumpTrump for our own safety. #TrumpIsATerrorist

Pritzker: Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research…

Sound familiar?

🚨 I have just introduced articles of impeachment against President Trump. Donald Trump is not above the law, and when he ignores the constitution, he should be held accountable.

Call your Representative and ask them to co-sponsor @shrithanedar.bsky.social 's articles of impeachment. Then, email them. Then, get some friends to do it, too. Let's let them know what the people want, in absolutely overwhelming numbers. www.house.gov/representati...

Citizens’ Impeachment has long held that if just 5% of Americans contacted their members of Congress about impeachment, it would be the largest collective action of its kind in American history. It would almost certainly lead to his removal from office. Advocate for impeachment in five minutes:

Trump is demanding that DOGE investigate polls after his favorability numbers tanked so badly that even Fox News couldn’t spin them to look good. He’s calling it all “fraud.” Seems like a very “efficient” use of tax dollars.

This Just In: Trump regime pushes fake science, announcing its release of a 'Fact Sheet' for a Cass Review, revealing investigations into providers and hormone therapy manufacturers are already underway. www.erininthemorning.com/p/white-hous... #DumpTrumpScience #StandUpForScience

All trans kids flourish when we affirm their gender identity. Period. We must continue to show up for trans youth and fight like hell for their right to be who they are.

Christian nation 🤣

When fascism hits unsend but the internet is forever.

They're making big mistakes, moving too quickly and burning bridges before they're capable of shutting down the opposition.

This "justice" department certainly seems weaponized to me. www.nbcnews.com/science/scie...

Hundreds of US protesters demonstrated outside the Milwaukee courthouse in solidarity with Judge Hannah Dugan, who was arrested by the Trump regime for standing her ground against ethnic cleansing. #3E (‪ 📹@marcofoster.bsky.social )
