We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

We traded Europe for a guy that builds concentration camps for profit.

We stand by our reporting.

Total federal spending is up +8% in 2025 year-to-date on April 9 over 2024. The illusion that the fed govt is tightening its belt is contradicted by its own real-time expenditure data. Admin spectacularly hammering some things but raising spending elsewhere. Was -7% just after Inauguration Day.

Every damned word of this 4-graf brief, except “By WSJ Staff,” should scare the bejeesus out of you this morning. www.wsj.com/livecoverage...

I'm not kidding that any Dem who wants to run in 2028 should get out ahead of this and loudly say if El Salvador puts American citizens in Trump's gulag we'll fucking invade.

1. We contacted the 100 largest American companies and asked a simple question: Do you support the tariffs announced by President Trump on April 2? These are tariffs that have already destroyed trillions of shareholder value NOT ONE COMPANY WOULD ANSWER THE QUESTION

Trump has, in less than 100 days, ended America's century of global dominance. All of the economic and political privileges that Americans have taken for granted their entire lives are going to vanish.

Can’t help but feel that if President Bernie Sanders pulled this move the entirety of American business would try to get him pushed out of office immediately.

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

BREAKING: Trump's National Security Advisor Mike Waltz used GMAIL to discuss NATIONAL DEFENSE INFORMATION. That's LESS SECURE than Hillary's private email server. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

lol LMAO, even

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth brought his wife, a former Fox News producer, to two meetings with foreign military counterparts where sensitive information was discussed, according to multiple people who were present or had knowledge of the discussions. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Clearly, it would be illegal for Elon Musk or Donald Trump to cut someone’s Social Security benefits by $5,000 without a new law from Congress. Now consider this alternative scenario: 🧵
