My eldest daughter Claudia once asked me why there isn’t a provision that says that convicted felons can’t be president and this was *exactly* my answer

Sen. Jon Ossoff: "Trump's hand-picked candidate to challenge me for that Senate seat in Georgia is executing magnificently-timed stock trades around these tariff announcements...It would not surprise me at all if the inside information is flying hot and heavy around Mar-a-Lago."

Trump says the U.S. and China are ‘actively’ discussing tariffs. China said that's 'fake news.' When will MAGA realize they are being lied to by Trump daily? abcnews.go.com/Internationa...

They saw WWII and the Holocaust, opposed Vietnam, and now that they're in their 80s and even 90s, they've seen enough of Donald Trump So the residents of a senior living complex on Philly's Main Line are out on the road, with a protest like no other. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/comm...

I had forgotten that one of the points made in the Declaration of Independence ... ... was that Americans needed freedom from a king ... ... guilty of “transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended Offences" @jamellebouie.net in the NYT (gift link): www.nytimes.com/2025/04/16/o...

Friends, this story strongly suggests the interim US Attorney in DC was very recently on the payroll of Russian intelligence. bsky.app/profile/wash...

First time we’ve seen this in any poll in a long time.

THIS!!!!

“This is of momentous, momentous significance,” said Judge Luttig,a prominent former federal appeals court judge revered by many conservatives. “This should be the turning point in the president’s rampage against American institutions.” @judgeluttig.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/u...

Greene Bought Market Dip Before Trump Paused Tariffs, Profiting From the Rally www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/u...

The court system is a coequal branch of government. If the administration isn’t going to follow their orders it’s time to hold some senior officials in contempt.

More than 20 dead in Sumy after russian attack, according to local media. ❗️ Warning, the video contains sensitive material! Trump this morning: "We are making good progress in peace negotiations with russia."

"Though I wasn’t being compelled to appear, I didn’t feel like I had a choice; it was an opportunity to directly challenge the folks who have used a conspiracy theory to decimate our nation’s response to foreign disinformation." ICYMI:

What’s the statute of limitations on market manipulation and insider trading? Asking for 75 million friends!

Someone should check which Trump allies and members of Congress bought Apple/tech stock on Friday. www.cnbc.com/2025/04/12/t...

It's only been 11 weeks, but so much has happened and so much damage has been done, it's already time for Dems to pitch their own "Contract with America." ICYMI @jilldlawrence.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/time-democ...

You’d think when you’re claiming the richest country in the world can’t afford childhood cancer research you might wait a year before throwing yourself a 100 million dollar birthday parade. But carpe diem, suckers.

Delta Air Lines said it could no longer give investors an estimate of how much money it will make this year. “Given the lack of economic clarity, it is premature at this time to provide an updated full-year outlook,” Ed Bastian, the airline’s chief executive, said www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...

“If he sees himself going down, he’s going to try to take the whole country with him,” the longtime Democratic strategist said in an episode of his “Politics War Room” podcast with journalist Al Hunt.

Authoritarian regimes run on lies. They fear the truth and people who act defiantly to tell the truth. The four patriots who testified against this regime during our spotlight hearing exemplify courage.

Sing it with me, kids: Everything. Trump. Touches. Dies. #ETTD never, ever fails in the end. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/08/t...

The Trump administration is comfortable disappearing people to foreign gulags partially because the Trumpis Justices on the Roberts Court have enabled him at every turn, rewriting the Constitution when necessary to accommodate Trump's lawlessness www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Profiles in non courage

Justice Sotomayor, writing in today's deportation case. How many times must she write, "With fear for our democracy, I dissent," before Republicans get the point? Perhaps only when, as the poem goes, they come for them.

2 Black SUVs with Black tinted windows. A driver and at least 1 security guard who told me to keep moving.

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

I'm watching CNBC. These anchors are so angry. They really didn't believe he'd do it. They're actually just now, 10 years into this shit, realizing he's a maniac hellbent on revenge and there's no grand plan for the markets. Better late than never but holy shit.

Ag groups on the tariffs "it is a shit show" agfundernews.com/food-ag-grou...

Rather than attended the dignified transfer of the remains of four U.S. soldiers killed on his watch, Trump will be dining with his Saudi golf buddies.

I think there is going to be a Red Rural Recession and soon if all the cuts continue as is All the firings, cancelling of grants and contracts with companies , the closing of offices, disproportionately impact small towns, cities and states. Their finances will be turned upside

History is written by the victors - in this case, the people who didn't die. Don't let the folks who shrug at a million dead Americans tell you what happened over the last five years.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

This is a critical point everybody in the media should be amplifying:

Brad Schimel is crazy. Vote Susan Crawford, Wisconsin. youtu.be/C9d9X7IdhwA

Nothing will happen re the group text scandal. But at least it’s the confirmation of all confirmations of the double standard that exists courtesy of the right wing media ecosystem and their pack of hyenas.
