Listen to this 👇. It’s an excellent series by @andreapitzer.bsky.social and well worth your time. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...

Please get ready to see President Xi Jinping engage in humiliation rituals all week towards the United States. This administration has fucked up beyond repair. “Build your opponent a golden bridge to retreat across.” Sun Tzu

This is horrifying and if she's delivered back to Russia it will be a very bad sign indeed. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/11/s...

Warren: "Congress has a job right now, and that is to step up and take this authority away from Donald Trump."

Canada is selling $340m in U.S. bonds! This is what happens when you fuck around with a PM who has a PHD in economics!

⚡️'Crosses any line of decency' — US Envoy Kellogg condemns Russian attack on Sumy. "As a former military leader, I understand targeting and this is wrong," U.S. Special Envoy to Ukraine Keith Kellogg wrote in response to Russia's deadly Palm Sunday missile strike on civilians in Sumy.

Bring back *everyone* who was sent from the U.S. to CECOT in El Salvador. *No one* should be sent there. ALL their rights were violated. ALL of them should come home.

Heads up‼️ The US is going to be invading Panama

The additional cost of Trump’s tariffs will be paid by consumers, while corporations profit and cut bribes to Trump for exemptions. If you think prices will go back down once the tariffs are gone, then you don’t understand the corporate greed that was driving inflation.

“As is evident, simply by looking at him, Dear Leader is in exquisite health, having the trim body of an athletic 23-year-old, the mind of an inquisitive genius, an the couth of the most refined men. Truly, the most perfect human walking among we lesser mortals. Praise God!” --The Court Physician

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

Last night at about 2AM, my family and I woke up to bangs on the door from the Pennsylvania State Police after an arsonist set fire to the Governor’s Residence in Harrisburg.

Yesterday, Rep. Sean Casten (D-6) spoke at a town hall in Dixon, IL, Rep Darin La Hood’s (R-16) district. La Hood has failed to hold town halls for his constituents. Give it a listen.

My congressman,Sam Graves, hasn’t had a townhall since 2012. We are having them in his absence.

I could be wrong, but this sounds like an admission of a human trafficking conspiracy.

Every quote is devastating in this very good NYT story about why the weirdness of the US Treasuries market is so important:

Donald Trump's doctor's report from his annual physical was just released. "Cognitive function, assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), was normal with a score of 30 out of 30." Not buying any of it.

For the love of God can we PLEASE have an edit button

All these corporate leaders saying "OMG, we had no idea Trump would screw up the economy like this!" - what did they think would happen? My first piece for the Daily Beast: www.thedailybeast.com/why-sudden-t...

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.

Cost of extending the Trump tax cuts for the rich: $4.6 trillion Cost of cutting corporate tax rate to 15%: $1 trillion Remember this as we hear about "wasteful government spending."

🚨 BREAKING: US Department of Education has started the process to TERMINATE all federal funding for Maine K-12 schools. This is in direct response to Maine Dept of Ed refusing to comply with Trump's Anti-Trans Executive Orders. Full release here: www.ed.gov/about/news/p...

When you’ve lost the DAILY MAIL

A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

Reminder that PP may very well be compromised by, and/or under the thumb of a foreign government. smartvoting.ca

Mikey is a dirty little bitch for Russia

He disappeared people without due process and is apparently doing it in a manner deliberately calculated to defy federal court orders to fix it. How is this not impeachable, immediately, regardless of politics or party.

The principle at stake here is so fundamental it predates even Magna Carta in English law, and before that stretching all the way back to Rome, and has its similarly ancient equivalents in every legal system in the world, because it's the inherent bedrock foundation of what courts and laws are for.

RFK Jr. trying to seize control of the national vaccine database isn’t “transparency” it’s sabotage. Forcing out FDA experts and risking data tampering with VAERS is a threat to public health, not a service to it. This isn’t reform, it’s corruption in a lab coat.

Let these observations of Fiona Hill sink in, please! This is happening and get just a little worse every day! www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8jAYYEg/

Huh. Trump admitting he's got no power or sway over the President of El Salvador He's really showing the world how weak he is

It takes the AARP to keep us safe? WTAF!

Give us proof, not your word.

LA County Sheriff’s outside the gate are estimating 60k here at the Bernie and AOC rally, and loads of people are still lined up to enter. Maggie Roger’s just welcomed everyone to “Berniechella”

At its core, fascism is institutionalized insecurity
