This is it. We’ve abandoned Europe and our allies for a Third World tinpot dictator.

DOGE keeps cutting agencies and funding and personnel, but no one I know has saved a dime on taxes. It’s almost like they are stripping the public good of resources to send that money to the oligarchs in tax cuts…

Trump's disastrous tariffs and reckless policies are tanking the US economy, costing $90 billion in tourism losses. Foreigners are ditching the US, especially Canadians, who are canceling trips & boycotting US products. Hostility at the border and rising tensions are driving away money and tourists.

Just to note that this Administration is clearly very concerned about antisemitism until an actual act of antisemitism occurs on Passover directed at an elected official on public property. The silence is deafening.

Warren: But this also happens to be a case where it’s not just the DOJ and SEC with jurisdiction. State attorneys general all across the country have power here too. That’s why a group of us just sent a letter to every state attorney general, urging them to launch independent investigations.

Democratic Party leaders. We need you to get on TV & social media to detail exactly what you’re doing to get Garcia back from El Salvador. You need to tell the truth about where we are in the authoritarian takeover of the U.S. Stop asking for donations until you show us you’re real leaders.

Make sense of this mess: We’re shunning skilled immigrants —while dumbing down schools by banning books & defunding education. And the grand plan for the workplace is a bro-club of white men hoarding power. So when does “greatness” kick in? Because all I’m seeing is regression wrapped in a flag.

AOC: Only 2% of people on Medicaid are able-bodied.. I saw Mike Johnson saying we have to stop all the able-bodied men from being on Medicaid — as if it’s a crime for someone to have healthcare in America. Healthcare is a human right, and everyone should have it.

Trump’s assault on the IRS isn’t just reckless economic policy—it’s a direct gift to himself & his oligarch pals. By gutting the agency & emboldening tax cheats, he’s hoping to ensure the rich get richer while the rest of us foot the bill. This is his blatant bid for unfettered self-serving grifting
