Me reading the news every morning: "What a terrible day to be literate."

Any questions? www.rawstory.com/book-censors...

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024. This isn't due to luck or skill. Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you. Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

Trump appears to be utilizing the prison in El Salvador as his first version of Hitler’s Dachau, he’s working to find a path to eliminating that pesky constitutional right of “due process of law”, so he can ship anyone, including American Citizens, out of the country indiscriminately & unopposed…

Well, of course they do. Right on brand. Trump admin keeps Hitler’s memoir on Naval Academy library shelves — but bans Maya Angelou www.alternet.org/trump-admin-...

A guy with a brain worm running the health of the country. A drunk, Nazi-tatted white supremacist running the Dept. of Defense. A commie sympathizer running National Intelligence. A Nazi-saluting ketamine addict running DOGE. A rapist, felon, insurrectionist, traitor as President. Are we Nazis yet?

The haunting echo of every fascist regime ever.

Need to take more frequent breaks from this. This is your idea of making a kingdom for Jesus GOP? Really? MAGA dystopian nightmare incarnate.

If this administration can pluck random people off the street and deport them without due process — none of us are safe.

LOL!

As the MAGA Congress is poised to cut $800 billion from Medicare and Medicaid... Never forget the fact that Medicare only exists because private insurance doesn't want to cover old people. - Maria Beltran

Democracy dies with dark humor.

Bondi's DOJ is now a part of trump's executive branch, like a dictator boss would have. They don't follow 'rule of law' but 'rule of trump'. The Republican party is the most corrupt POS to ever exist in America.

This is the right answer. 👇👇👇

Bondi is deliberately stalling this to please "The Boss". Put the "fear of the lord" in people.

"The dollar is also falling, meaning that foreign investors are getting out of America. They are leaving the stock market, selling treasuries, and even getting rid of their dollars. Why? Because they no longer think America is a safe economic environment." www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-fina...

How much insanity can we endure?

Casar: At the end of the day, this is about taking your hard-earned money and giving it to themselves—or funneling it to their friends. That’s all this is about.

Today House Republicans, cheered on by the richest person on Earth, passed a budget framework that will cut support for the poorest people in our country. All while cutting taxes for corporations and the wealthy, and massively increasing the deficit.

www.alternet.org/trump-biden-... In a Thursday, April 10 post on X, formerly Twitter, Thomas posts, "The manufacturing boom that started under the Biden administration is grinding to a halt under Trump." And Thomas backs it up with a chart.

MAJOR BREAKING: Senator Elizabeth Warren just told Call to Activism exclusively that she’s calling for a formal investigation into “insider trading” among Trump’s friends: "Did Trump or those with inside knowledge help wealthy investors cash in on his tariff flip-flopping?"

Let's see if trump defies SCOTUS. That will be a line crossed.

trump is only there for himself and his rich friends, fuck everyone else.

Just so we're clear: Trump did NOT pause tariffs. 10% tariffs are in effect across all countries he listed. China is at 145%. What he paused were the FUTURE retaliatory tariffs in an escalating trade war. Yes, insiders HAVE profited, but market optimism is foolish. Inflation is STILL coming.
