From @reprickhansen.bsky.social. Dippel wants to take funds from cleaning up toxic chemicals that are killing people for his own personal projects. Putting the dip into Dippel.

More of this. The fuck are you doing promoting a book when the country is falling apart?

NEW: On Section 504. "Attacks on any one group will be used as a wedge to attack all of us. You may not personally know any trans people, and you may even be uncomfortable with the idea ... but letting this attack go forward will eventually hurt you and the things you love, too." /1

JUST IN: The FBI Agents Association, repped by @markzaidesq.bsky.social, has filed a second lawsuit on behalf of agents who sayd their inforation may be publicly disseminated and used as part of a purge. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Well played, President Claudia Sheinbaum, for committing troops already at the border since 2021, knowing perfectly well President Man Baby would have no idea and take it as a win.

An unelected billionaire now has the power to STEAL OUR EARNED BENEFITS. Every Member of Congress, Democrats and Republicans alike, must use every tool they have to stop this. If they don't, they are complicit in the theft.

Dear Canada and Mexico, We’re so, so sorry. — Sane America

This is normally for a country to invest their budget surpluses. Since we don’t have one, and won’t have one anytime soon, unclear whose money is going into this and where it will be going. We are going to borrow more money to invest it?

If only there was a word for when an unelected oligarch moves quickly to take over control of the government. The legacy media is failing us. Support independent media. www.democracydocket.com

Gerry Connolly: "It is a matter for Congress to deal with, not an unelected billionaire oligarchy named Elon Musk. And Elon, if you want to run USAID, get nominated by Trump and go to the Senate and good luck in getting confirmed."

Trump just announced that his tariffs will cause “pain” for the American middle class but it’s okay because it will be “worth the price that must be paid.”

Can someone ask Trump which stage of “Make America Great Again” this is?

Reminder that a tariff is a tax. Trump is raising your taxes.

But Trump said that Americans aren’t impacted by tariffs, so why would lowering tariffs make OUR costs lower… unless…

Ah yes we wouldn’t want to empower the “unelected bureaucracy.”

Absolutely brutal scroll on Fox.

The stock market is tanking so badly it almost feels like we are being governed by someone who went bankrupt six tim— Oh wait.

Lots of stupid in this rant. There is, however, one admission. The pain will be real. It's coming.

NEW - Ottawa Senators fans booed the American national anthem at the beginning of tonight’s hockey game.

Trump's clemency for violent convicts and seditionists of January 6 carries grim consequences, national security sources warn: "Incredibly damaging" “The attempted rewriting of history is astounding" "A pretty catastrophic moment for domestic counterterrorism" www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Wishing a good evening to all my Bluesky friends! 🌙

“This is completely uncharted waters,” said Pennsylvania State University Professor Douglas Charles... “There have been times, different points where the FBI has been reorganized. This is not that…It just seems to be a wholesale dismantling of the independent culture of the FBI.”

Way back in 2016, @GOP believed the truth: the economy is just a complex set of interactions between people, and govt should facilitate that. Tariffs are the opposite. It’s big govt. And they say I changed. LOL

here's today's post: "incompetent imbecile sabotages California’s water supply" — millions of gallons gone, for a pointless photo-op. thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter to keep getting the good stuff —

Americans are about to learn some economics.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

British Columbia is already pulling the American liquor.

Support Canadian alternatives!

"I've only got a 40-year headstart as a white man in America. How can I possibly compete with a Guatemalan mother of 4 coming across the border with $7 to her name?"

Good. Do it.

I spoke with the owner of a small NY manufacturing firm. Most of his sales are exports. Biggest markets: Canada, China & Europe. He never thought Trump would actually impose tariffs; figured it was just campaign talk. If they go into effect, he fears he’ll have to lay off most of his 65 employees.

Not responsible for this one, but hope the gallows humor will bring a smile to your face in these troubling times. Song comes courtesy of the good folks at the Thom Hartmann Program, and the video was put together by a member of our team. #SoundUp youtu.be/XAwev6kFAnU

Here's a fact most Americans don't know: The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is the largest purchaser of wine by dollar value in the world. The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits. We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

Remember: The tariffs aren’t about economics, and DOGE isn’t about fiscal responsibility. They are both about ••psychopathology**.
