Marjorie Taylor Greene bought $275K in stocks after tariffs were announced. Interesting timing, huh? Martha Stewart went to prison for far less.

Gas is up at the pumps since Donald Trump took office. Coffee costs more. So do eggs. The things that are going down are your rights, your savings, and your retirement accounts.

I was a social security recipient from the age of 12 through 18. That’s not some weird thing or corruption. It’s called survivors’ benefits. You don’t have to know this. You’re blessed if you don’t. But if you’re going to speak publicly abt the program you need to know this.

Jasmine Crockett 🔥🔥🔥 "All I kept hearing was 'fire.' ... They are lighting the Social Security on fire, Medicaid on fire, Medicare on fire, 401ks on fire, Department of Education on fire ..." Meanwhile, their incompetent leader has already wasted $26 million taxpayer dollars playing golf!

The executive targets his opponents w/bogus investigations. His government disappears people w/out due process and vanishes them beyond reach. He usurps legislative power, controls public funds at will, & consolidates power. Loyalty is expected — or else. Authoritarianism isn’t coming. It’s here.

The President’s unprecedented Executive Order yesterday targeting Messrs. Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor for nothing but the exercise of their First Amendment rights is the President’s most constitutionally corrupt Executive Order to date.

pro tip: if your government claims to have no money for children's heathcare but will eagerly waste millions on a gaudy military parade to stroke the fragile ego of a broken-inside president, you just might live in a shithole country

The people telling you to "be cool" while THEY fuck up your 401K are going to be fine financially, no matter what happens. Fuck that. Be pissed. STAY pissed. And vote Republicans OUT. Every last cowardly one of them.

okay now that you all have gotten a taste of America's rational and predictable new trade policy, everyone who wants to build your new factories here just form an orderly line

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge? It looks like your boss just pulled the rug out from under you. There is no strategy ... is this market manipulation?"

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

They want to imprison anyone for burning down a Tesla. For 20 years. How much for burning down the stock market?

As a reminder, when Trump says he is putting massive tariffs on China, or any nation, that means he is putting a massive tax on YOU. China doesn't pay a single penny. You, the consumer, do.

At this point, you can’t convince me they aren’t manipulating the market. As soon as the indexes started peaking today, the White House started talking about tariffs on China, and everything is in the red again.

ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them. DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it. Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them. Pam Bondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it.

No terrorist group has ever harmed and killed as many Americans as Donald Trump and his administration. Not even close.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

I bears repeating that the reprehensible Pam Bondi is just making up lies about the innocent people she is condemning to a life of torture. Most of them did not commit any crimes--unlike Pam Bondi, who took a bribe as a public official. She is downright evil.

They are snatching people off the street and sending them away to brutal prisons in foreign lands with zero due process - and they won't even bring them back when they realize a mistake was made. That's frightening stuff for any American who actually loves their country. #StopTrumpsTerror

By claiming Apple iPhone's can be manufactured in the US, the fascist authoritarian Trump regime is either gaslighting the American people, they are an imbecilic regime of subtards, or both. It would literally cost thousands of dollars more for an iPhone to be made in the USA. 👇

Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"
