@rbreich.bsky.social: “For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.”

Good read: Democrats, Stop Hiding. Start Fighting. Democrats can’t afford to sit back and wait for power — they need to seize the narrative and make their presence unavoidable every single day.

@maxwellfrost.bsky.social called Trump a grifter and Republicans had a pathetic meltdown. They struck his words from the committee transcript because it hurt Trump’s feelings. This isn't oversight, it's obedience. (video via @acyn.bsky.social)

You don’t have to watch MSNBC. They are systematically firing their non-white hosts and you have every reason to turn the TV off. I will not support bootlickers. I will not support those who kiss the ring. I will not support those who bend the knee. Ever.

One of the reasons air travel became safe was the FAA moving away from enforcement actions, as Will mentions. If pilots are nervous they'll lose their jobs by reporting something going wrong – they'll stop reporting!!! You'll only find out when the "near miss" turns into 200 dead

Before asserting that something like this is happening because he says he can do it, journalists should ask what the statutory authority is, and if it is unclear or nonexistent, the headline and story should reflect that.
