Wow. No wonder so many Zoomers have slipped into irony, post-truth, and nihilism. Dark times.

This is horrifying! Family members of some of the people sent to do hard labor in a Salvadoran prison by Trump confirm their loved ones weren't members of a gang. One woman said her brother got a tattoo of a rose in Dallas, and because of that they accused him of being a gang member.

Man, economic worry shot up fast. Maybe firing hundreds off thousands of workers, while raising prices with tariffs is not good for the economy

Raising prices with blanket tariffs and increasing layoffs as demand is crushed, plus causing broad market instability. We’re going to get the worst of all worlds

Republicans are pushing for a world with less science and less community services, in order to build a world that better serves the billionaires. It’s pure greed from people that are somehow unsatisfied despite their decades-long hoarding of massive wealth.

I hope the damage done to our forests, libraries, museums, postal service, VA, scientific research community, etc. can be undone in the future. This is really sad, many people were working to help society and no longer can. Under Trump it’s all about profit for giant private corporations at the top

Waiting until after Democrats caved on the CR, Trump issues a late night order to eliminate 7 agencies “to the maximum extent” allowed by law, including the organization running the Voice of America, the agency that helps fund museums and libraries in all 50 states, and so on. Order in alt text:

Gov. Walz, "There’s nothing conservative about an unelected South African nepo baby firing people at the VA."

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Senate Democrats are perfectly showing why Trump won. They don’t do anything and have no message. People want to support you, but you give them no reason to!

I tried calling multiple Chuck Shumer offices, and they all have voicemail turned off “outside of business hours.” What a pathetic, corrupt coward
