If you have ever wondered how the leaders of America’s most powerful institutions would react if a despot sought to seize power in the US and strip away our most basic freedoms while destroying our economy, national security and institutions…now you know. They’ll roll over and play dead.

I think it's bad that the country is led by people who haven't had a real problem in their entire lives and couldn't get a regular job due to being too weird

It's long past time to ban insider trading in Congress.

He tanks the stock market, and he and his rich buddies buy low… Then he pauses the tariffs, and stocks rise… He and his rich buddies sell high. Rinse and Repeat…over, and over again. It isn’t Rocket Science… It’s actually criminal.

Occupy Democrats Post!

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

So, is the mainstream media really just done talking about that time our Secretary of Defense drunk texted war plans to a journalist?

Everyday I think about the fact that iceland jailed the people responsible for their financial crisis

In three months, we went from global economic powerhouse to pariah. Our tragedy is made entirely in the USA. By one man. Donald Trump.

The MAGA leaders who claim to love America do not understand or believe in anything that makes this country great. They are opposed to freedom of speech and competitive elections. They don’t love Americans or our ideals. They want to be kings in a country founded on revolution.

If you’ve ever taken the oath to uphold the Constitution, this is the time to live up to it.

Governor Walz in Ohio: If you claim to love freedom but want to restrict certain groups, you don’t love freedom. You love privilege 🔥

Sounds about right!

Good morning

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

What we are witnessing is not just Trump collapsing the economy and global markets, but also massive theft and fraud at a colossal scale.

It’s a recalibration of economic control. Oligarchs don’t live paycheck to paycheck. They have the capital to buy market dips and recoup faster, acquiring more assets at fire sale prices along the way. When the dust finally settles, they will own more. The rest of us will own less. A lot less.

I can only imagine the bailout package they are drawing up for themselves. As the saying goes, privatize the profits, and socialize the losses.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Tariffs on their own do not create more American jobs or lead to more US production. In fact, Trump's last trade war cost roughly 300,000 jobs. All these tariffs will do is give corporations cover to jack up prices and pad their profits at our expense.
