This is super smart Steve. Wish I had thought of it first ! Stocks have been crushed. The next trump move is uncertain. Best move ? Buy back stock. No question about it

Outside of religion, the biggest scam in history is the "I'll make you rich" scam. We see it all the time on late night infomercials. Some guy has solved it all, and he's willing to share his secrets with you, and they are incredibly easy, all you have to do is pay him money.... That guy is Trump.

Marco was all over the TV yesterday trying to coat horse shit with sugar. While tariffs would no doubt impact his work, his message wasn't one for foreign nations. It was directed to American businesses. I don't think I ever saw Antony Blinken discussing domestic policy on television.

Four American soldiers are dead, the economy is crashing and that motherfucker is GOLFING.

“America we see you” ~~~~~~~~~~~~ #Resistance the world sees us. Stay strong #Resistors!

Congress could end this tariff nightmare, not tomorrow, but right now. Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution: “The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises…” Tariffs are a tax on exports. Keyword: TAX. It's Congress' job! Trump tariffs are illegal.

So technically there is no law that a sitting president can be criminally prosecuted, just a memo. That is the flimsiest excuse. Article 84 of the South Korean constitution “ The President shall not be charged with a criminal offense during his tenure of office except for insurrection or treason.”

North Carolina, come on and raise up This one's for you? Uh-uh This one's for who? Us, us, us, yes sir

April 5:

✨I am concerned for my nation. I fear for the safety of others I know & dont know, including myself. Evil exists. Darkness to. But Strength is in numbers. Hope & actions are a light to battle the darkness. And I have faith we will overcome. Remember that… #YouAreNotAlone #Resist #BlueCrew

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

I want my government to be boring and competent enough so that I don’t have to think about it every goddamn minute.

The incoming NIH Director has repeatedly stressed the importance of open science and open data. Now petabytes of NIH-hosted research data are about to be lost on his watch. www.404media.co/nih-archives...

JUST IN: Justice Department seeks 87 month sentence for George Santos.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Like what the hell did they expect? Thoughts and prayers? 🤬

Just a reminder that tomorrow I will be speaking at the Los Angeles protest. Join me! (or find a local one and go there)

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse. 2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report." 3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes." This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

Judicial Board: Tulsi Gizzard and Steven Seagull remain on our sanctions list, for as long as we suspect they are part of the Red shadow fleet of tyranny. They are not welcome here.

I've already had two federal grants terminated and face a 33% pay cut due to future terminations. It's painful, but not as painful as the conversations I'm having every day with brilliant trainees in graduate school and postdoctoral positions who see little future for themselves in US science.

A true heater 48 hours for The Onion, in my unbiased opinion.

Poignant letter by a mother: “Don’t worry love, they will never wrestle you from us. They could tariff the air we breathe, seas we swim, valleys we waddle upon. They may hunt us, chase us, imprison us.. and I promise that I will never let their greed corrupt our happiness. With you forever.”

There are 32m small businesses in the USA

This is a tale of both sides again. This is another reason we can't have democratic representatives that are beholden to big money. It's got to end.

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: “The face of russia hasn’t changed since the war began—they struck and hit a playground,”

I should have made more AOCs.

When one of the kindest people you know - who happens to be a geologist with decades of fieldwork in Alaska - meets your eleven-year-old after school for 2 hours to talk about diatomite & plate tectonics & tetrapod fossils ... that's how you make future geologists. @standupforscience.bsky.social

Fay was one of the bridesmaids in my wedding and is one of the bravest, most selfless people I've ever known. Which of course means she was abruptly fired by RFK Jr. on Tuesday. time.com/7273450/trum...

Defence Ministry Update: Border surveillance has not detected any abnormal activity. We stand rock-hop-ready to rock, set to defend ourselves against all threats both foreign and domestic (elephant seals mainly)

Dow Down 2200+ Points Fox:

Breaking, per NBC News @garygrumbach.bsky.social -- Judge Paula Xinis in the District of Maryland has ruled that the United States Government must return Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by April 7 at 11:59p

Absolutely disgusting.

The entire permanent staff of the Division of Environmental Health Science and Practice was laid off. This division addresses issues such as asthma and air pollution, climate change and health, childhood lead poisoning, and cancer clusters.

The remains of the four U.S. soldiers who tragically died during a training exercise in Lithuania are expected to arrive at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware on Friday, April 4, 2025 Cheeto tariff boy will not be there to greet them, he's busy.

Our trade policies should benefit American workers, not just corporate CEOs. That includes targeted tariffs to stop corporations from outsourcing American jobs & factories. We do not need a blanket, arbitrary sales tax that will raise prices on products that Americans need.

More reckless cuts from HHS— CDC’s STD & hepatitis labs shut down, outbreak detection lost, critical testing delayed. And an extra level of cruelty: "Animals that were to be used in planned experiments will have to be destroyed. What a waste." Thanks, Bobby! www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-...

This doesn't have anything to do with the economy. It's Trump's Vengeance Tour, pure and simple.

Barack Obama just delivered a blistering takedown of Trump's lawlessness. Importantly, Obama also offered Dems a way to argue that Trump's dictatorial abuses of power and his imminent wreckage of the economy are the same story. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1936...

Trump officials “treat sensitive information with scandalous carelessness while invoking state secrets to hide facts that endanger no one,” @conor64.bsky.social writes:
