People who come to this country are not criminals. They come just as my parents came - with their best hopes and their skills, drawn by the American dream- the opportunity to make a better life in the land of promise. That America is now being stolen from us all.

When I was a kid, I distinctly remember a phone call from a telemarketer asking for "the man of the house." My mom's reply: "speaking." God damn legend.

KUDLOW: "There could be some short term, one-off price hikes. But at least for now, the economic signals are flashing slower growth and higher inflation. Not good." 😬😬😬

When Rupert Murdoch’s rags turn on you …

NEW: The Associated Press is suing Trump Administration officials in federal court for banning AP reporters from events over the organization continuing to use the name 'Gulf of Mexico.' AP says the ban violates the First and Fifth Amendments.

Republicans are waging war on healthcare. Their aim? To strip coverage from millions of Americans to fund tax breaks for billionaires. #DontCutMyMedicaid

When FAA employees are telling us it’s not safe to fly, we should probably listen.

Fun fact: while Phony Stark and the DOGEbags are taking money from our veterans, the world’s poorest people and kids with cancer, Assistant President Poopy Pants has already spent nearly $11 million of our money… playing golf.

Steve Bannon spoke at CPAC. He called for a 3rd term for FOTUS and then, unambiguously, threw up a nazi salute to the crowd. Just know, it can, and in all likelihood, will get a hell of a lot worse if we don't do something immediately.

Always stand up to a bully

Some updates: 1. A federal judge extended a restraining order blocking the National Institutes of Health from cutting research funds until she rules on a permanent injunction. 2. The IRS will not allow a member of Elon Musk’s team to access individual tax returns.

"Yesterday, we witnessed an extremely sad moment in American history. We saw the president of the United States aligning himself with the dictator of Russia, Vladimir Putin, to undermine the independence of Ukraine and its democracy."

There is a wave of anger building across the entire country. People are already becoming fed up with Trump and Musk. These algorithms can try to hide it all they want, but they won’t be able to avoid reality for long.

"Let’s just tell the truth. Trump’s anti-DEI policy is about white and male supremacy. Trump’s immigration deportation policy is about white supremacy. And Trump’s assertion that he knows “what the law is” and is above the law is about white billionaire supremacy."
