A woman simply told a reporter (regarding voter intentions), “Pierre Poilievre is too Trumpy.”

Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration. He's now planning to end the free IRS Direct File program. Apple donated $1M. Trump exempted most of Apple’s imports from tariffs. Coinbase donated $1M. Trump’s SEC dropped a major lawsuit against them. See how this works?

INCREDIBLE opinion by Wilkinson refusing to stay Judge Xinis's orders in the Abrego Garcia case, condemning DOJ's arguments as "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Nothing is fixed in our dysfunctional two party political system without major financial reforms. Corporate, PAC and oligarch sized donations have to stop.

Trump is tanking the economy—and Americans are taking note. – 60% disapprove of Trump’s handling of inflation – 75% say Trump’s tariffs will raise prices in the near term – Only 21% say his economic policies are helping. A stunning bipartisan rejection. 4 charts with more 🧵

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Glad to see the spirit in Maine. Now if Sen Collins could only feel the protest. What a disappointment she is.

#maha Is it personal choice when news feeds and public messaging contains inaccurate information about public health and contagion risk? If that inaccuracy leads to illness is the messenger liable?

“He made 2.5 million today and he made $900 million. That’s not bad.” Sounds like market manipulation to me. That’s bad.

They are incompetent to lead. All of them.

Guys, guys, guys. It’s not math. It’s not finance. It’s not economics. It’s all about psychology. Abnormal psychology. Read the DSM-5’s chapters on Cluster B personality disorders. And then it all becomes clear. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/b...

The conservative American Enterprise Institute (AEI) reports Trump's tarriff formula makes no economic sense and that it's also based on an error. "Our view is that the formula the administration relied on has no foundation in either economic theory or trade law." www.aei.org/economics/pr...

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.

End Citizen’s United. This won’t stop until the big PAC money is gone from politics.

MSNBC just showed a montage of world leaders calling the USA idiotic, illogical, hostile, unhinged.... literally never seen anything like this. From the shining city on a hill to an object of global derision and contempt.

Almost half of the country’s health insurance now rests in the hands of a man who once sold miracle pills — with zero proof they worked — on daytime TV.
