So likely the world’s first Trillionaire Elon, who received $36 Billion in govt subsidies and contracts to generate his wealth, is telling the people who built this country what they can live without, as he giggles with his chain saw. Something ain’t right

Zelensky, the ELECTED leader of a free country, should not be expected to kiss the ass of the toddler. His people expect Him to be strong. Trump would have fled where Zelensky stayed and fought. Trump is the worst negotiator

Trump is too much of a coward to say a bad thing to Putin, yet he dares lecture Zelensky? Russia is on the verge of collapse and Trump/Vance are desperate to save them

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

If Democrats want to regain working people, they must disavow Big Money. That starts with banning super PAC donations in Dem primaries. There’s no way the party can speak for the majority of working people in America if it's beholden to corporate interests.

"There is overwhelming consensus on Capitol Hill that Russian President Vladimir Putin is a war criminal, NATO is critical to European and global security, and the United States has led the common defense." They all knew Trump was running against that.

OOPS: House Republicans just admitted that Social Security is next on the chopping block. They want to give the ultra-rich a $4.5 trillion tax cut — and make middle-class families foot the bill.

Some House Republicans seem to be confused, so let's get one thing straight: Nobody voted for Elon Musk. And they definitely didn't vote for Republicans to give Elon and other Republican donors a $4.5 trillion dollar tax giveaway.

After a 12-hour markup where Democrats fought to stop them, Republicans passed a budget that betrays the middle class. Their plan steals from working families while delivering a $4.5 TRILLION giveaway to their billionaire donors. Democrats will fight this Republican Rip Off.

House Republicans are in a fantasy land with made up agencies and unelected billionaires calling the shots. American families live in reality and don't have those privileges. They want lower costs & common sense solutions - not to be pawns in Republicans' games. youtube.com/shorts/Ltih3...

Liberals believe in the rule of law. They also believe in the value of biomedical research. They believe there are important and worthwhile things that the government does. They might as well fight for their beliefs. They might even win.

The belief that the law no longer matters is deeply damaging, if for no other reason than that it is strategically foolish to concede that the rule of law is a fiction. This is a pretty basic first principle of a republic.

For the second time in a week, Trump tried to rip off hardworking American taxpayers. And for the second time in a week, Democrats stood united, the American people said no to his expensive tariffs, and he backed down. This time, he even got played by Canada and Mexico.

As Trump attempts to purge much of the federal government, much of the bureaucratic leadership is submitting. It’s the rank-and-file workers who are refusing to back down. They should keep it up, and the leaders should join them. Today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social:
