V interested in paper by Caroline Watkinson about Caroline Benn at 2nd day of Benn Legacy conference - more radical than her husband & a political thinker in own right. Also v amused that like the Emily Davison one in Parliament, this is another plaque Tony Benn put up without permission! 🗃️

"Trump and his advisers may not appreciate that the U.S. is a debtor nation and needs to attract foreign capital to fund its massive budget deficits. The Trump trade wars may be alienating the very buyers the country needs." www.barrons.com/articles/bon...?

I keep puzzling over how Rubio thinks it'll bring PROSPERITY to kidnap gay hairdressers based on their tattoos & then pay $20K/year to detain them in a slave camp. We could have spent that $6M on supporting trade with Congo instead, but Rubio has decided torture is better for profits?

It’s moments like these when we might consider it relevant that the current FBI director who might be charged with investigating this crime appeared eight times on the podcast of Stew Peters, a Christian Nationalist who recently called for a “final solution” to America’s “Jewish problem.”

Boebert is trying to open the door to nationwide wolf hunting and trapping. Soon, thousands more wolves could be in the crosshairs.Wolves are incredible animals, but they can't defend themselves from high-powered rifles and steel-jawed traps. That's where we come in.

There's been a committed effort by people like Richard Hanania into mainstreaming race science and eugenics and it's, shamefully, mostly worked. Hanania in particular is a crude, blathering moron bigot using fourth rate statistics to justify his gutter bigotry

Here is a bit more about the author of the law that Rubio is saying that he is using to combat antisemitism. It removes the need for the Sec of State to provide any sort of justification for deporting people he sees at odds with the foreign interests of the US. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

We just need to turn the negative productivity of scientists at NASA and IRS auditors that DOGE fired to gainfully making shoes in Nike factories reshored from Vietnam. This is the groundbreaking economic thinking of communist purges from Mao to Pol Pot with a sprinkle of American Exceptionalism.

Feels like it should’ve been a bigger deal that the Arkansas voucher application program literally asked voucher users if they wanted “a different racial mix of students” Especially since it was @SarahHuckabee that came to push @GovBillLee’s scam

NEW: Two-thirds of NYC voters support creating municipal grocery stores to bring down prices. "The concept is imminently feasible. In fact, publicly owned grocery stores are quite common and already exist at scale—in the US military."

This right here 🔥 “If there was market manipulation, it is a crime. Someone needs to go to jail… I want the documents. I want the Signal chats too, because I don’t trust them — that they weren’t sharing all this information across their Signal chats.” – @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social

The Social Security Administration was very lean.Expenses for the retirement program were less than 0.4 percent of benefits. Elon's pay at Tesla was more than the full cost of administering a program with 60 million beneficiaries.

WATCH: “I wept today.” On Thursday, @SenatorLamar reacted after Tennessee Republicans passed @SenBoWatson’s cruel bill to keep undocumented kids out of schools through the senate 19-13. 7 Republicans opposed it with Dems. @ToddGardenhire (R) also wept.

Jesus. Trump just touched down in Florida with Elonia — again. It’s April 11. He’s been “president” for 82 days. He’s spent 27 of them golfing at his own resorts. His travel alone has already drained $30 million from taxpayers. 🌴🍸😎

Yo! Shoutout to AOC & Bernie for leading by example — showing up, speaking truth & organizing w/the people, not just talking at them from D.C. We need that same energy from all Dems. Whether it’s 35,000 or 35 people — show up. Hit the streets, hit the town halls, show you’re ready to fight for us.
