W France 24: "That was dumbest, most economically illiterate I have heard in my life. It was filled w lies and distortions. President of US was speaking nonsense, and biggest nonsense of all was that #tariffs can replace income taxes and that they can lead to economic growth. They won’t" #Trump

On May 5, 1930, 1,028 economists urged President Herbert Hoover to veto the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Bill, warning it would harm the economy and provoke global reprisals. Despite the plea, it passed—and is now seen by many historians as an accelerant to the Great Depression.

We told you it would happen. Trump and Musk are abandoning our veterans because they've never cared about the men and women who serve.

Funny how "erasing history" only applies to tearing down Confederate monuments, emphasizing the role of enslavement in the development of the U.S., & renaming military bases named after Confederates, but not to acknowledging historical Black, Brown, queer, and trans folks

A memo has just leaked revealing that the Trump administration is planning to sabotage the Social Security Administration. Their plan would gut the agency’s claims process, potentially preventing millions of Americans from getting their earned benefits. Per @juddlegum.bsky.social:

It is important that people understand and accept as fact that our government is compromised. I don't mean compromised in some cloak-and-dagger sense, I simply mean that this government no longer accepts core democratic principles and is angling toward an autocracy that's part of a New Axis of Evil.

You know what type of people a $5 million "Gold Card" for US citizenship will attract? Successful criminals and state-sponsored spies. Well done, Donald, after years of accusing Democrats of using immigration to bring unsavory people to the US, you prove that you were, once again, just projecting.

This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.

Yes, @mcuban.bsky.social! We need to use their tactics. Trump & MAGA did not just go away after they lost in 2020. They continued to flood the zone. That's how they stayed relevant and undermined the great work that was done during the Biden administration.

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

No matter where you fall on the TikTok ban, the President undoing by “executive order” a law passed by Congress and upheld unanimously by the Supreme Court is an unconstitutional abuse of power.

Netanyahu is going to delay the cease fire deal that he’s about to announce. So that it happens when Trump is in office or just before. So it looks like Trump did it. Because that’s the SECRET BARGAIN they made back at the illegal summit they had at Mar-a-Lago last summer.

When a hurricane struck North Carolina, Republicans lied about FEMA. When a terrorist attacked New Orleans, Republicans lied about immigration. When wildfires hit Los Angeles, Republicans lied about fire dept. funding and DEI. Exploiting tragedy is part of the GOP playbook. Helping victims is not.
