This is a good idea

Flood the zone with facts

1. Trump declares tariffs that tank the stock market. 2. Trump and Musk buy cheaper stocks. 3. Trump rescinds tariffs, reviving the stock market. 4. Trump and Musk sell more expensive stocks.

French Senator Claude Malhuret: "Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

AARP has created an easy way to contact your lawmakers and tell them Social Security must be protected. Learn more.👇

Starting this week, we’ll all pay more at the store because of the Trump tariffs, even while he’s finalizing a multi-trillion-dollar tax cut for the wealthy. All the bluster is meant to get us talking about literally anything else.

It would be helpful if more people understood renewable energy is actually an extremely disruptive technology and the reason monied interests are trying to make folks hate it is that they are the ones which will be disrupted.

What a creative roast 🔥

"a return of the 'corrupt process' that existed before the 1930s in which tariffs remain on the books and businesses try to curry favor (in this case, with Trump) to win exemptions..." www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Remember: Musk is a coward at heart. A weak man, not a strong one. A fragile ego just like the guy he shares an office with.

Are you nervous, Elon?

Elon Musk’s Starlink could receive up to $20 billion in government funding if the Commerce Department goes ahead with plans to rip up the rule book on rural broadband contracts.

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

Posted by @cturnbull1968.bsky.social on another platform: "Trump honoring a child with brain cancer tonight and then leading a standing ovation for him while simultaneously eliminating all spending for child cancer research is a perfect encapsulation of MAGA morality."

Raise your sons to be the kind of men that don’t feel the need to giggle as the POTUS makes fun an African nation ‘that nobody’s ever heard of…’. America already has enough of those kinds of weak sons-of-bitches. We need dudes that give a damn now.

DOGE was never about saving money and eliminating fraud. It was about eliminating all of the people and agencies who could prevent Musk, Trump, and their oligarchs from stealing money and committing fraud while they hijack the government. It’s a coup.

Doesn’t get anywhere near enough attn. presidents have lots of inherent powers in the mil and diplo realms. They’re charged with administering the executive branch. But they actually have ZERO inherent authority over tariffs. Zero. This is purely laws Congress has enacted that simply delegate …

Keep on fighting ✊🏾 💙🦋💙🦋 #BlueCrew

Former GOP Rep. Charlie Dent told MSNBC in passing that the Republicans he's hearing from are being "overwhelmed" by the flood of angry calls and emails from constituents back home.

On days like today, remember one thing: Regular folks can lose their shirts when the stock market tanks — at the very same time that wealthy investors know how to make money hand over fist.

Commentary: Trump, the GOP and DOGE have launched their attack on Social Security. You should start worrying now.

I won't hold my breath

Reminder that instead of attending Donald Trump's first address to Congress tonight I'll be hosting an open-to-all town hall on Facebook live at 6 PM PT. You don't need a Facebook account – or to be an Oregonian – to tune in. Look forward to seeing you all soon.

Guess what happened in 1929 ...

There are no "illegal protests" under the First Amendment. This is just fascism brought to us by an ignorant old man drunk on power.

He’s a Russian agent. Mueller, Jack Smith, knew it but played by the rules. Trumps a Russian agent. It started in the early 80s. Trumps first trip was 1987. He’s been given hundreds of millions in “Russian Investment” Wake TF up. He’s a Russian agent.

If you want to eat the most expensive eggs you’ve ever had in your life, you should have backyard chickens. Don’t get me wrong, I love them and have raised them, but they are an expensive hobby.

Eutelsat, the owner of OneWeb, a satellite rival to Starlink, said today that it was “actively collaborating with European institutions and business partners,” adding that it had equipment that could be “deployed swiftly in Ukraine to connect the most critical missions and infrastructures.”

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Rachel Maddow drew a direct comparison between a 1940s Minnesota senator who was secretly on Adolf Hitler's payroll and pushing pro-Nazi policies to the MAGA embrace of pro-Russia policies.
