Hey, @nytimes.com, we're going to be needing more recipes that only require a burning barrel and fingerless gloves.

It’s a month since the administration detained and disappeared a green card holder, a lawful permanent resident. We cannot allow this to be normalized or forgotten.

Funny how when Republicans win, the election was safe and secure. But when they lose, it's due to fraud. Hey Jeff Griffin-voters didn’t and don't want YOU. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #RepublicansAreDestroyingAmerica popular.info/p/the-five-m...

Yeah, silly really captures the gravity of the situation. Really well said. #tariffs

OK, non-finance people: crash course in bonds. Bond prices and yields moving opposite directions. Yields on US govt bonds [“treasuries”] are surging (ie the prices are falling). Prices are falling because people are selling treasuries at a massive clip.

I foresaw this and economics is not my area of expertise.

The lowest of the low…👇 MAGATs. Have. Exposed. Themselves. ✨

Made in China #tariffs

So are these going to be subject to 104% tariffs? MAGAs going to buy this for $102?

Don’t worry folks, MAGA says they’re SURE that the nepo baby who bankrupted casinos, committed egregious business fraud, added $8 trillion to our debt and left office as the worst jobs president since Herbert f’ng Hoover is going to “usher in a golden age” by crashing our economy. Fucking idiots.

100%

"This weekend, John Oliver did something surprisingly rare in mainstream media: he dedicated 42 minutes to a thoughtful, well-researched segment on transgender athletes in sports that cut through the hysteria and political opportunism dominating this conversation. www.readtpa.com/p/send-this-...

They have the power to stop him… THEY CHOOSE TO LET HIM RULE WITHOUT RESTRICTIONS!!!

We wouldn’t be here if SCOTUS had allowed the January 6th trial to go forward as scheduled.

A game show host who imposed tariffs on penguins is crashing the world’s economy. This isn’t 3-D chess, it’s complete insanity.

I think the Supreme Court got the law badly wrong tonight. But beyond that, it’s just incredibly ominous that Roberts would throw Boasberg under the bus and hand Trump this big win when his administration has conducted this case in EXTREME bad faith from the start. slate.com/news-and-pol...

How could any of us have known a recession was going to hit us by the middle of 2025? I wonder... did anybody see this coming? 🤔

True story…👇

I understand why folks are reacting like this. But again, this is a temporary pause from a Court that doesn't like having a matter of hours to decide even disputes that we might all think are entirely obvious, and in a context in which it doesn't want to give Trump *any* excuse to not comply.

Yes.

NEW: Yesterday, the Justice Department sent armed marshals to warn former U.S. pardon attorney Liz Oyer not to disclose internal DOJ information during her Senate testimony. Today, Oyer is speaking out to condemn the DOJ’s actions and defend the rule of law.

The only thing that aged worse than Donald's post is Donald. #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1

Get ready for more such announcements. Goodbye affordable everything...

Must have had a tee time.

To all Americans invested in the stock market: you can take comfort in knowing that while your investments are swirling down the toilet, Convicted Felon Donald Trump "won" a golf tournament at his club. Paid for by YOUR tax dollars. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

#ProudBlue Please share this wonderful message 💙 #MorningVibe #ReadingIsResistance

The facts reported by CBS News contrast sharply with those of the administration — and those of the Fox personalities who regurgitated its talking points to their viewers.

To be fair, if they did shake, Trump's hand would get CRUSHED, BIGLY.

The Fourth Circuit is famously succinct. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Judge Boasberg said he would rule on if there was probable cause to hold the Trump Administration in contempt for ignoring his order barring Venezuelan deportees from being flown to El Salvador. His record shows that President Trump has chosen an especially hard target to paint as “a troublemaker.”

I heard you can't drown if you don't admit you're underwater.

yo @bsky.app get your content moderation together, this is beyond ridiculous

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

Well...probably more than one man at this point, don't you think?

Just saw Stephen Miller outside Tysons Mall getting into a car with his security Told him to his face that he's hurting American families. He didn't look up and his security told me I need to keep moving. I was with my son and holding a Lego bag. These men are weak, cruel cowards.

I'll take scorching hot takes for $1000, Ken!

It’s jarring to hear the President of the United States say Europe “has taken a lot of our wealth away” — even as $10 trillion in wealth is erased.
