The U.S. National Park system generated $55.6 billion in economic output on a budget of $3.6 billion in 2023. What Elon and DOGE are doing has nothing to do with efficiency and everything to do with privatizing public goods for the enrichment of a few. - Robert Reich

@aoc.bsky.social: "Every time you see Tom Homan, every time you see Kristi Noem... understand that they are taking attention, focus, dollars, and real resources away from actual drug enforcement, trafficking enforcement, and actually going after and trying to investigate really harmful activity."

Let me get this straight... Congress creates the Dept of Education in 1979. But Dumbass is going to shut it down with an executive order? How is this even constitutional?

One day he’s telling us that tariffs are amazing because they will bring lots of new jobs to the US and raise so much money we won’t have to pay income tax, then the next day he’s telling us we aren’t doing them because people were nice to him on the phone.

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

Social Security taxes are rigged for the rich — and the program is in danger because of it. A CEO earning $20M/yr pays Social Security taxes on ~1% of their income. Meanwhile, a normal worker pays Social Security taxes on 100% of their income. This isn't fair. - Robert Reich

I don’t know who made this meme, but given Trump said last week that Zelensky “Won’t be around for very long”, I hope Zelensky outlives them both by decades.

NEW: Multiple reports of Russian missiles pouring into Ukraine tonight, targeting civilians. The US has shut off the intelligence Ukraine needs to protect itself. This hotel in the southern city of Kryvyi Rih took a direct hit. Trump has the blood on his hands of every Ukrainian casualty tonight.

Trump pardoned Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht, who was sentenced to life in prison for running an online platform where drug dealers conducted more than $200 million in illegal drug sales. He doesn't care about Fentanyl.

James Comer silenced Ayanna Pressley as she tried to enter documents into the record—her procedural right. He shouted her down, dismissed her, and refused to let her speak. The GOP screams about “free speech”—until a Black woman exercises hers.

Because the president is a psychopath, because the vice president has the spine of a jellyfish, because the people of this nation are terrorized, the state of the union is strongly fucked up. .

The Supreme Court decision should have been 9-0. The fact it was 5-4 reveals how utterly compromised the bench is in favor of right-wing authoritarianism.

Justice Alito says that the Clean Water Act doesn't actually require that cities and companies make water "clean". So. Remember him in your thoughts and prayers when you're doubled over the toilet after drinking shit tainted water.

Trump is the only POTUS to have hired "illegals" in 2 different centuries to avoid paying a living wage to American workers. The GOP will NEVER go after the employers who dange the jobs. Trump will NEVER take down America's "Help Wanted" sign at the southern border. #StateOfTheUnion

The numbers are clear. The State of Illinois hit $2 billion in record-setting cannabis sales, generating more than $490 million in tax revenue. Five years after we legalized adult-use cannabis, we’re seeing the economic impact of a thriving cannabis industry.
