We are on a fast race to the bottom.

My takeaway from this: He is so fucked.

We’re in court today challenging President Trump’s order attempting to shut down asylum at the border completely. Trump doesn’t have the authority to deny people their legal right to seek asylum and send people back to persecution or violence.

JUST A FACT…👇 Enjoy. 😎✨

100 days of Trump, and here’s what we’ve got: higher costs for working families, tariffs hurting our economy, Social Security struggling to function, and Western NC left behind—all so billionaires get another tax break.

Get it now?

PUNCHBOWL: “.. The shopping site will display how much of an item’s cost is derived from tariffs – right next to the product’s total listed price.” $AMZN punchbowl.news/archive/4292...

100 days into this presidency, Americans are paying the price - higher prices, crashing retirement accounts, and broken promises. But the American people are turning, thanks to your voices. Keep it up. It's up to us to demand something better.

Hi Friends, as mentioned in an earlier post, PA has a "non-partisan" primary system for school board and judicial candidates. These candidates "cross-file" (show up on both sides of the ballot under both parties) and its imperative you know who you're voting for. These are Bristol Township's:

Booker: Do you think we got the right to vote for women because a bunch of men on the House floor got together and said “on the count of three, women get the right to vote..” That’s not how it happened… Change doesn’t come from Washington. It comes to Washington.

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means. It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

Because of one man’s ignorance & ego we must now live through the most grievous self inflicted wound in US economic history

These People Are Cruel And Uncaring….

All our relations 🆘💙🇺🇸

NEWS: Rep. Gerry Connolly announces his cancer has returned. He will not running for re-election and says he will soon be stepping down as Ranking Member of the Oversight Committee.

China has returned two Boeing jets, each valued at $55 million. With $69 million in tariffs applied, the cost per plane increased to $124 million. Orders for an additional 130 jets have been indefinitely suspended.

I called both of my Oklahoma Senators, James Langford and Markwayne Mullins, and I left blistering messages with them about the unqualified and dangerous Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, asking them to facilitate his removal.

Never in the history of business has one person done so much damage to his reputation & company brand as quickly as Elmo has done to himself & TSLA. The damage will get worse & is permanent. Couldn't happen to a more deserving monster.

Project 2025 isn’t just rewriting policy—it’s attempting to rewrite history. Navajo Code Talkers erased from Pentagon records, tribal flags removed, and vital reports on missing Indigenous women deleted. This systematic erasure could lead to a dangerous redefinition of Native sovereignty and rights.

Our cover this week.

Maddow: 88% of the country says no, no, he cannot defy a supreme court ruling. Only 9% say yes he can. And you know, it's not the same thing. But I should mention that 9% is also the proportion of Americans who told yougov this week that they have a favorable view of the black plague

Trump’s 145% tariffs on China have goods piling up in warehouses, while China hits back with 125% on U.S. imports. 🇨🇳 Europe’s trade talks with the U.S. are stalling—EU says ‘little progress.’ What’s the impact on global trade? Share your thoughts! #TrumpTariffs #TradeWar

JOIN US ON MAY DAY (Thurs, 5/1, 4:30pm) at the MN State Capitol for the next big nationwide call to defend democracy. We're endorsing this pro-labor, pro-immigrant coalition rally at the Capitol because authoritarianism thrives when people are silent. We won’t be. Make your signs and meet us there.

Happy Earth Day! 🌎💕🐦🐝🐬

So, umm, maybe it wasn't such a good idea to take the weekend host of Fox & Friends and make him the Secretary of Defense of the United States of America?

Daily Reminder: Social Security is OUR money

Pete Hegseth is clearly on his way out due to incompetence. I wonder if the next Secretary of Defense will be from Newsmax

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

He was compassionate and humble. He cared deeply about immigrants, families suffering in war zones, the poor, those of other faiths and the LGBTQ+ community. He did not condemn or judge but urged us to love and care for each other. He was the best Pope of my life time. Thank you Pope Francis .

Just a reminder: Trump needs to fire Hegseth. Don’t let him resign—he doesn’t deserve that easy way out after this gross incompetence. This is on Trump for being too scared to fire his favorite Fox News host. Make him pay a political price if he doesn’t.

BREAKING NYT: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared detailed information about forthcoming strikes in Yemen on March 15 in a private Signal group chat that included his wife, brother and personal lawyer, according to four people with knowledge of the chat.

Raskin: The president derives his powers only either from the Constitution explicitly or from an act of Congress and Congress certainly has never given the president the power to relocate prisoners to foreign countries and there's nothing in the constitution that remotely vests that power…

The spatula is my wand. The skillet is my stage.
