U.S. corporate profits surged to a record high in Q4 2024, according to Commerce Department data. Remember this as Trump tries to cut the corporate tax rate to 15%. Corporations have used inflation as cover to price-gouge us. Trump wants them to keep more of the spoils.

This is extremely alarming — White House fires a career federal prosecutor because he (1) went after a politically connected businessman and (2) criticized Trump during a 2020 congressional bid. “White House fires a career prosecutor” is itself unprecedented. www.latimes.com/california/s...

It would disenfranchise millions. It seeks to restrict what ballots states can count. It purports to give DOGE unspecified powers to review state run voter rolls. No wonder vote suppressors and election deniers from coast to coast lavished it with praise. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Trump hates American democracy. He hates open societies. He’s jealous of Xi and Putin. He wants America to be like Russia and he’s doing everything he can to make it so.

All this business I am reading about social security is nonsense. My mom died on 2/18. My dad got a letter yesterday informing him her benefits were ending and he had to repay the February payment because they don’t give a payment in the month someone dies. They know where every dollar is.

Trump's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," and the trans community have one clear purpose: If we are angry at each other, we won't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

Trump: "We brought back free speech in America. Free speech." This is a flagrant lie. Today he told universities they would be punished if they allowed protests of or criticisms of Israel, a clear violation of the First Amendment.

What he said about Social Security payments has been repeatedly debunked - so the question isn’t whether he’s lying about this, the question is why. What is this a pretext for? He and the GOP have long shown interest in going after Social Security. What are they going to try?

Raskin: The chairman began by saying the point here is to restore the rule of law. Can you even pretend to do that if you support Trump who on day one pardoned 1,500 insurrectionists including hundreds of people who violently assaulted police officers…

In two months, Trump will stand on the steps of the Capitol that he sent a violent mob to storm 4 years ago, place his hand on a book he has never read, and swear an oath he has previously violated, as administered by the Chief Justice who placed him above the law.
