Amazon’s momentary lapse of veracity, coupled with the Trump administration’s panicked reaction to said veracity, shows every American that the president’s stupid tariffs are, in fact and of course, going to raise the prices of things we buy. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Civics 101.

Two former Wells Fargo executives were fined $8.5M by the Biden administration for covering up the bank's infamous fake account scandal. Trump just slashed those fines to a paltry $150,000 after Wells Fargo gave $1M to his inauguration. See how this works?

Hi, @motherjones.com disabled disability reporter here, I really want to hear about how tariffs are impacting disabled, chronically ill, and aging folks. Reposts appreciated and my email is [email protected].

Wow. UPS announces they will cut 20,000 jobs this year because of the economic conditions under Trump.

This stuff has to be blown up much bigger than it has been. You want a kitchen table issue? Cancer is a kitchen table issue.

Thank you Joe Biden!

So you’re saying we could solve all the financial problems of 379 million of us and impact just 19 households. What an interesting fact. Fun little bit of trivia.

Imagine sucking so much that countries where you’re not on the ballot vote against you

29 April 1945 | The US Army soldiers liberated #Dachau - the first concentration camp created in Nazi Germany which became a model camp for the entire SS concentration camps system. Over 205,000 people were imprisoned there between 1933-1945. Some 41,500 were murdered there.

apologizing for calling an asshole an asshole is delightfully on brand

Stealing kids and secretly shipping them to a foreign country is the definition of child trafficking, isn't it.

The port of Seattle right now. It's completely empty with no new ships coming in. We're going to have disruptions to access of basic goods unlike anything we have ever experienced in our lifetimes.

"What's to stop a foreign government, eager to bribe the American president, from quietly dumping money into Trump’s crypto project, effectively making direct payments to the president without public disclosure? Nothing." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

It is ironic that where it stands now is that Trump claims he is helpless to do anything about Bukele's decision to keep Garcia there. Trump, our would be strongman, insists he is powerless against the president of a small impoverished country.

Donald Trump has lost almost 100 times in court & now he’s lashing out Litigation is the spark for social outcry & it’s already working—his approval rating is plummeting I discussed @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.social

After an especially ear-splitting week of tantrums from Nancy Mace, Pete Hegseth, and Stephen Miller, I explore the question: Why does MAGA love adults throwing childish fits? It's connected to the Mar-a-Lago face and Trump's love of bad music. www.salon.com/2025/04/28/m...

This is so good, especially coming from a man that looks and sounds like he does

Trump says that any American who shows “dissension” against MAGA should be “immediately ejected” from their member of Congress’ town halls. This is fascism.

Conservative and liberal judges across the country this week ruled against President Donald Trump in at least 11 different lawsuits challenging his administration’s immigration, elections and anti-diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Pritzker calls for mass protests and disruption - “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace,” he says, swaying their portraits will one day be put in museums “reserved for tyrants and traitors”

CNBC anchor: "We see you during the pandemic, now we see you during this. We only see you when things are like seizing up and going really poorly." FreightWaves CEO: "People bring me out when we have a crisis." Great work, Mr. Trump, you got the supply chain experts back on TV.

The meager $20 I gave Cory booker a few weeks ago probably sealed my fate. 36 texts and emails this week from people I’ve never heard of before. I’d have paid $40 for this not to have happened.

This feels a lot like that early period of Covid when some people were shouting about how bad it was going to be while guys like Trump and Musk were predicting it would be over by April.

Everyone’s gonna be wide awake at his funeral. If only because they’ll play Kool & The Gang’s “Celebration” at full volume.

For the first time in history, we can proudly show you a DOUBLE German bollarding. This has NEVER been seen before so congratulations to us. #WorldBollardAssociation

Macron shook one hand.

This line is going to stick with me for a very long time. “One of them is a 4-year-old with Stage 4 cancer who was deported without medication or the ability to contact their doctors…”

TFW you realize hiking season is coming in hot 🐾✨

Vance's Easter visit to Rome clogged its streets with a 40-vehicle entourage. He also demanded the Coliseum be closed so he and his family could tour it alone. Tourists who properly booked slots in advance got screwed. He's apparently the first to make that demand. Then he didn't bother to show up.
