🔥 @ninajankowicz.com to the European Parliament: "Before I describe the details of Russia's recent online influence campaigns, I would like to call upon you to stand firm against another autocracy: The United States of America."

😳 what's going on here 🤷‍♂️

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

What do these corporations have in common? Netflix Ford Tesla T-Mobile Duke Energy DISH Network Metlife Dominion Energy United States Steel In recent years, they all paid their execs more than they paid in taxes. This is what a corporate-rigged system looks like.

AOC: We saw Majorie Taylor Greene buy that dip. How much did you make? How much did you make off of people’s despair? How much did you make off of that panic? How much did you make off of that suffering? No more. We can’t accept it

BREAKING: Trump has paused tariffs for 90 days. Who could have seen this coming two days ago on Bluesky?

"She's a supermodel but she lives in Canada."

Don’t worry folks, MAGA says they’re SURE that the nepo baby who bankrupted casinos, committed egregious business fraud, added $8 trillion to our debt and left office as the worst jobs president since Herbert f’ng Hoover is going to “usher in a golden age” by crashing our economy. Fucking idiots.

Nero fiddled.

This isn’t hypothetical. Let’s look at how Trump’s steel tariffs in 2018 affected the industry. Factories closed as downstream industries—like auto and construction—faced higher costs, losing $3.5B in output. 1/

Great thread:

Worst two-day stock market crashes in the U.S. by percentage loss: 1. 1929 (the Great Depression) 2. 1987 (Black Monday) 3. 2008 (the Great Recession) 4. YESTERDAY AND TODAY And while this happened, the man responsible for it was golfing and dining with enemies of America.

Oh my God... it was all ChatGPT. They didn't even care enough about the American economy to do any of the work themselves. It almost feels... impeachable? How could sloppily using AI to create domestic policy, then hiding it, be consistent with the Oath of Office?

A more innocent time, before the threat of penguins forced his hand

Tariffs like these raise prices and don't work. But if you skipped class the day we all learned that – here's a refresher:

Correct

Trump’s “Liberation Day” Tariffs are designed to liberate Americans from their hard-earned cash and will: - Make groceries more expensive - Crash markets and retirements - And make it harder to build and make things in America. How do we know? Anyone…anyone? Because, we know. The chaos must end.

Funny, and accurate. Need the finger wag too.

@schumer.senate.gov Please pass the baton you're too old and I'll equipped to handle the fight for our Republic. Perhaps useful still but you should not lead. You lack the fight, vigor, and willingness to bring unconventional solutions to our unconventional times.

Pete Hegseth, three days ago: "Under the previous administration we looked like fools. Not anymore.” Carve it into his career headstone.

Weingarten: If you think this is unprecedented. You’re not crazy. It is. It is. We have never faced the kind of assault on people that has happened in the last 60 plus days.

For anyone who grew up in the South during the Civil Rights era, You’ll remember the “Impeach Earl Warren" billboards put up by racist groups after the Brown vs. Board of Education desegregation ruling. That Elon Musk and Donald Trump are now following in their footsteps makes perfect sense.
