1. The Trump administration claims that a program to protect rural Alabamans from raw sewage is racist so it is canceling the program as part of its crackdown on "DEI" According to a press release, this is about treating "every individual with dignity and respect." 🤔

As we’ve warned before, the Trump administration has subjected around 80 staffers to lie detector tests. America, please understand—this is not normal.

Remember the big presser where Pam Bondi announced charges against a prominent MS-13 leader? They appear to be dropping the case and seeking a quick deportation instead. In a bizarre twist, the defendant is asking the court NOT to dismiss the charges 1/X storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The top five egg producers own roughly half of all U.S. laying hens. The biggest of those corporations is Cal-Maine, which just announced quarterly profits of $509 million — more than 3x what it made a year ago. Corporate concentration + bird flu = a price-hiking free for all.

. In less than a week, the S&P and Dow Jones each lost over 12 PERCENT of their value. Who made money? Follow that. Presidents USED to divest, put their money in blind trusts, to avoid even the APPEARANCE of impropriety (let alone corruption). We know THIS asshole doesn't give a shit about that.

One man just wiped out $10 trillion in wealth, is destroying centuries-old legal protections, and seems determined to unravel humanity’s greatest public health achievement. In 3 months. I don’t know how we get out of this. But if we do, one person can never have that kind of power again.

The Regime continues its descent into fascism. The DOJ lawyer who was sent to defend The Regime’s illegal actions in deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia could not do so, because “Plaintiff Abrego Garcia should not have been removed”. That DOJ attorney was just placed on administrative leave.

Republican Senators just voted to destroy the American economy, the stock market, American businesses, and American family budgets. They voted to explode the deficit, cause a worldwide trade war against us & create a global economic depression. Both parties are not alike!

The White House admits they sent an innocent father of three to the prison in El Salvador but they are still fighting to make sure he doesn’t come home. The definition of evil.

George HW Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Clinton (D) got us out. George W Bush (R) got us mired in a recession. Obama (D) got us out. Trump (R) got us mired in a recession. Biden (D) got us out. Trump (R) is yet again ushering us into a recession. Starting to notice a trend?
