Trump's attacks on the USPS aren't new. For decades, the GOP has been trying to privatize the Post Office and other crucial public services — all to pad the profits of their wealthy corporate donors.

This fantastic piece by Stewart Patrick is an excellent summary of the wrecking ball that Trump is taking to the entire international order crafted by Dem & Repub presidents over 80 yrs. Who does this benefit? The Kremlin, for certain. No one else. carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

Do you make less than $360,000 a year? Your taxes are about to go UP. And you have Trump, Musk, and the Republicans to thank for it.

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

We don’t need “miracle technologies” to solve climate change—we already have the solutions. Wind, water, and solar (WWS) can cut costs, reduce pollution, and create millions of jobs. Fossil-fuel-backed distractions only delay real progress. Let’s stay focused on what works! cleantechnica.com/20...

We asked Senate Republicans: is there any millionaire or billionaire rich enough who doesn't need another tax giveaway? $10M a year? No. $100M a year? No. $500M a year? No. $1 BILLION a year? No. With Republicans in control: Billionaires win, families lose.

In the Senate, I proposed blocking tax breaks for people who make over $10 million a year. Every Republican voted no. Republicans then refused to rule out tax breaks for people who make over $100 million. And $500 million. Is ANYONE too rich to get a giveaway from the GOP?

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

The official White House account just referred to Trump as a “king” and posted an image with a crown on his head. They’re not even hiding it.
