@warren.senate.gov: "State attorneys general have the same opportunity to investigate, dig in, get what the facts are. So for example, Letitia James, the NY attorney general, which has jurisdiction over the stock market and the trading that happens in NY, might decide she would take a look at this."

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Aside from being illegal Improperly listing 6,100 people as dead will almost certainly make it easier to “disappear” them Because now they’ve been “erased” And you can be damned sure that American citizens will mistakenly be included as dead Come to think of it That’s probably no mistake at all

@booker.senate.gov: "Are we a nation that is going to tolerate this, or a nation that's going to stand up? As the great Frederick Douglass said, 'the limits of tyrants are prescribed by the people that they seek to oppress.' How much will we endure before we say enough is enough?"

@booker.senate.gov: "For a guy who spends the weekend on his golf course and brags to the media about him winning a tournament while the struggling-- this is the kind of gross arrogance of a Marie Antoinette saying, "let them eat cake" ... Screw him for telling people to accept pain."

Americans thinking they have won over China really shows how little Americans know about China. Fox News might feed the propaganda. But the reality for America is dire to say the least. If this really escalates. China will play hardball. China will do two things

Yes, Trump is tanking the economy, destroying alliances, and actively harming this country, but remember, Congress could vote to reclaim their authority over tariffs but are choosing not to. Call your Congressional reps and call Mike Johnson!

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Colonel Susan Meyers of the US Space Force, stationed at Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, was removed from her command after criticizing Vance’s unneeded and costly visit to Greenland. She stated her loyalty to the US and the law and not to politicians so Trump got rid of her.

NC House Bill 806 would remove class size limits in K-3rd grades & allow up to half of school teachers to be unlicensed. Lowering standards now and then I bet they'll push even harder for "school choice" since they've purposefully broken the public system. Call your state reps now!
