On the Weekly Show with @jonstewart, @PeteButtigieg reminds us tariffs are tied to the real priority for Trump & Republicans: Tax Cuts for the rich Income from tariffs (aka taxes on us) *offsets* revenue the government loses when they slash trillions in tax cuts for the top.

Trump is like a kid with his finger on a light switch - tariffs on, tariffs off, tariffs on, tariffs off. Except the kid doesn’t make money off playing with the light switch or destroy retirement account and world economies.

Anyone else sitting there watching their hard earned retirement dollars going down the drain today while the Republicans are saying, “Oh, they’ll be fine. Let them eat cake”? I do not know if I could be any angrier.

Barack Obama just delivered a blistering takedown of Trump's lawlessness. Importantly, Obama also offered Dems a way to argue that Trump's dictatorial abuses of power and his imminent wreckage of the economy are the same story. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1936...

newrepublic.comObama’s Blistering New Takedown of Trump Gives Dems a Way ForwardIn an appearance on Thursday, the former president laid out the connection between Trump’s lawlessness and—yes—the price of eggs. Will other Democrats follow?

If a deranged president intentionally destroying the country's economy with a ludicrous obsession (and misunderstanding) of tariffs *isn't* justification for invoking the 25th Amendment, I honestly can't imagine any scenario that would be.

The White House Correspondents’ Association said it fired host Amber Ruffin so it can instead focus the dinner on celebrating the First Amendment. Which apparently can be done best by preventing a gay black woman from speaking.

Not satisfied with purchasing a Presidential Election to become co-President, Sissy SpaceX now wants to buy himself a Supreme Court judge in Wisconsin. You can end his shopping spree, Wisconsinites! 🚫 💰 #VoteForJudgeSusanCrawford 🗳️ ✅ 👍 This is super important.

Lack of accountability and of a “paper trail” was the goal of using Signal. We need to focus less on incompetence and more on intent.

Be aware that government records belong to the government—& the American people. And that those records can hold people w/political power ACCOUNTABLE for what they do. The accountability of politicians to the people who gave them power is the ESSENCE of democracy. Signal prevents accountability.

Sanders: I'm not a mathematician but I do know that 99% is a hell of a lot bigger number than 1%. I do know that if we stand together, we are the vast majority of people. We can defeat trumpism

Scary AF.

The New York Times@nytimes.com

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suggested allowing bird flu to spread, so as to identify birds that may be immune. Veterinary scientists said that would be inhumane, dangerous and have enormous economic consequences.

We must stop ascribing any positive motives to trump, muskrat and the MAGA GOP. We have to realize they are ok dismantling our government, killing our citizens, destabilizing the world, destroying our environment. To them, it’s a power and ego trip. This realization should guide our responses.

Some commentators are asking why Americans aren’t protesting or standing up like other countries. We ARE, but we are a big country geographically and it is more spread out. Hopefully, the Republicans are getting the message that trump and muskrat are out of control and they need to step in NOW.

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

Calls and speaking out works! Keep it up. #resist

Congrats, they heard you! The Social Security Administration has decided tonight to abandon its plans to end phone service for millions of Americans filing retirement and disability claims. Thank you to all who shared our post and made calls today—you did it!

Members of Congress personally own stocks, bonds and funds too. I hope that when they start taking losses and see more losses in their future, self-preservation will kick in and they will help stop the insane tariffs and other trump carnage.
