What’s really going on with the economy? I believe Trump and his billionaire buddies — the American oligarchy — have a plan. They want a recession. robertreich.substack.com/p/why-trump-...

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

SCOTUS says due process applies to deportees, but overturns TRO for filing wrong claim in wrong venue. It’s like calling the fire station to report your house is on fire only to have them say you called the wrong station and need to start over.

Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.

STEPHANOPOULOS: The president retweeted a post that said the market drop was part of a deliberate strategy. Is that the president's strategy? HASSETT: Heh ha. The bottom line is the president has been talking about tariffs for 40 years. He's allowed to have an opinion. S: So that is his strategy.

“When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another…” The words from the Declaration of Independence resonate now more than ever given Trump.

Exactly what part of Trump's past says anyone should trust him with our economy: His SIX bankruptcies? His felony convictions for cheating in 2016 election? The fact he is the only President since Herbert Hoover to end first term with less jobs than when he took office?!

Free Trade, zero tariffs Elon vs Full Tariff Trump is going to be interesting to watch. The stakes are enormous for the American People Who comes out on top ? I think unfortunately for the economy, in this case , it's Trump.

I really do think we’re well beyond this point. If you pretend that your differences with friends and coworkers and family are about “politics” when in fact they’re about right versus wrong and fascism versus the rule of law, you’re doing your country a grave disservice.

Trump's DHS erroneously sent an email to Ukrainians legally living in the U.S. under a humanitarian program telling them their status had been revoked and they had seven days to leave the country or the "federal government will find you."

Republicans, Independents, and Democrats all want reforms. Trump tapped into people’s rightful anger on one thing: for too many, the status quo wasn’t working. But the answer isn’t to burn it all down. It’s time to build something new that actually delivers on the promise of the American dream.

US Senators from every one of these states—AR, TX, KY, MO, OK, MS, TN—(1) approved Trump/Musk/Doge cuts to NOAA and FEMA, and (2) said Calif would need to change its internal policies before getting federal help for LA fire disaster. Every one of these US Senators happens to be MAGA/GOP.

Sometimes I remember I wrote this in 2019. "Trump had lived & breathed & preyed on women & contractors for 70 yrs [& had] never been held accountable for his degenerate behavior, business failures, or blatant racism—if for nothing else, Trump can be forgiven for thinking 2016 meant he never would."

Reminder: no matter how many times Republicans say otherwise, there is no way they can pay for their proposed tax cuts without gutting Medicaid and other programs that millions of people rely on. Don't believe their lies for a second.

What we're seeing at #handsoff protests nationwide today and what we saw at the ballot box on Tuesday are not unrelated. The public is furious. It will not be silenced. And those who side with Trump and Musk—or refuse to fight back—will be swept out of office.
