OMG!

It's time to worry about bank fees. These 5 banks rolled them back. finance.yahoo.com/news/time-wo... Trump ended Biden's regulation for banks to stop charging excess junk fees to Americans, now banks are slowly rolling back junk fees for Americans. "Trump always looking out for the little people."

🚨BREAKING: Four more Big Law firms join the ranks of Trump collaborators. A&O Shearman, Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins and Simpson Thacher all capitulated. In a sign of growing inflation, each firm agreed to $125m in Trump approved pro bono. Shameful.

They are obviously slow learners

Yesterday, House Republicans (with the help of four Democrats) passed a bill that would restrict access to the ballot and eliminate online and mail-in voter registration. We must speak up to stop this GOP voter suppression bill in the Senate. Call your senators: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Been thinking of old Letterman clips for some reason.

With measles spreading across the country, the Illinois Department of Public Health unveiled a new online tool Wednesday that allows people to look up measles vaccination rates and data about the risk of outbreaks at individual schools across the state.

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history. They aren't even bothering to hide it.

Raskin: He destroyed more than $10 trillion in American wealth in a single week. And then he went golfing and bragged to America about winning the tournament at his own golf course. That's like bragging about being endorsed by your own campaign manager. So much winning

"Public health experts have warned for years that such a shift would open the door to increased dental disease, especially in low-income communities. But the guy who thinks wi-fi causes cancer and 'leaky brain' is apparently unconvinced..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Here's the webpage put up by the office of Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes for people to notify her office if they're havig problems dealing with Social Security. Every state AG's office could do this. Might help. www.azag.gov/socialsecurity

"Two sources with direct knowledge of the situation told the Washington Examiner that the agent in question was "behaving erratically" and "became irate" when hotel staff refused to reopen the bar beyond its normal hours, the US media reports." lol www.brusselstimes.com/1526014/brus...

JPMORGAN: “.. The rest of the world will be hit by US tariffs (and retaliations). But the US will be hit by tariffs on all countries. This makes this a uniquely American shock.” 🇺🇸

No, #BrokenPost, you don't write this headline as a question, answering it below. You lead with the truth. This isn't hard. A rewrite: Vitamin A cannot treat measles but children are overdosing on RFK Jr's anti-vaccination lie.

This is a cartoonish waste of taxpayers’ money and abuse of government resources. If only there was a department looking into this sort of thing. 🤔

Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.

Markets in chaos. Tariffs up, stocks down. Rumors swirl. Allies retaliate. CEOs panic. Trump plans a birthday military parade while launching a trade war. And his own backers are losing faith. Full breakdown in today’s Meidas+ Bulletin.

This!

Fixed it. #ourpoopisnotforsale

OK, let’s see the best signs that you saw today.

This is Utah in case anyone’s wondering how pissed off people are. I have never seen anything like this.

Might be seeing a trend here

Houston State Rep. and Democratic Minority Leader Gene Wu on how Governor Abbott's denial of a special election to replace Sylvester Turner is just the latest in years of Republican efforts to silence Texas' biggest blue city. Podcast: bit.ly/3Z0lr7x @thewuwu.bsky.social

what if it just took one though

The worst news of the week. "The U.S. Senate confirmed Harmeet Dhillon, a veteran lawyer with a history of attacking voting rights, to lead the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
