This is the stuff the world wars are made of, boys and girls!

This isn’t just a Trump problem. This is a GOP enablers problem. The entire Republican Party is draining your 401k and raising your grocery prices.

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

If you don’t think that at some point he’s going to show more interest in the 5,044 nuclear weapons he controls, you’re as deluded as the people who thought he’d never tank the stock market and the economy.

“When McKinley, most famously, put tariffs on in 1890, they lost 50% of their seats in the next election,” Rand Paul said. “When Smoot and Hawley put on their tariff in the early 1930s, we lost the House and the Senate for 60 years. So they’re not only bad economically, they’re bad politically.”

I find it outrageous as well.

RIP Pentagon IG.

Donald Trump is destroying the rule of law in America. The news from New York today is just the latest example. Let's talk about it. youtu.be/QIPhd0jKTuc?...

“As a little girl growing up in Chippewa Falls,” Judge Susan Crawford said in her victory speech, “I never could have imagined that I’d be taking on the richest man in the world for justice in Wisconsin. And we won.”

It’s stunning to me that the New York Times did not put the story on the bloodbath at the NIH, CDC, and FDA on its front page this morning.

The Democratic win in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race was huge: 10 points (55% to 45%, with 98% of the vote, or 2.3 million votes in).

Those two Florida districts shifting 20 points towards Democratic candidates has to be a *little* disconcerting for Republicans in the House who won their seats by less than 20 points. Thoughts and prayers, y'all.

Every day I wake up and think about Elon... "Fuck that asshole, I'm gonna help destroy Oligarchy!" www.reuters.com/business/aut...

This is a MORAL moment. Where do YOU stand? Thank you Senator Booker for stating it plainly. #IChooseRight

Mallory McMorrow didn’t come to play it safe—she’s here to shake things up. A bold reformer, she’s taking on Michigan’s U.S. Senate race with a clear message: it’s time for real change in the Democratic Party. Michigan deserves a fighter. Let’s back her.

Throughout this trip, I have evoked the words and stories of President Lincoln — a staunch ally to the people of Mexico throughout his life and presidency. I don't use his name lightly. I feel strongly that this trip, at the moment we are in, is a continuation of his legacy.

But because of the flagrant misconduct and abuse of power of the Attorney General of the United States. This is how a country loses its rule of law.

Today, at the Justice Department's urging, a judge dismissed a serious corruption case against the Mayor of New York. Not because there was any lack of evidence. Not because of any misconduct by the prosecutors…

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk think they can destroy our country for their own benefit. No they can’t. Not if we band together to stop them.

I'm here in Mexico to ensure our international partners know they can trust Illinois to remain committed to our shared goals. Over the week, our delegation has met with leaders to discuss business, government, and how we can strengthen our economies for the good of our people.

It's the biggest tax hike in decades and the most regressive in living memory.

The admin will use the third-term talk as a recurring smoke screen to shift our focus. This time, it was for the Signal clowns. Yes, the idea of a third term is both scary and unconstitutional, but we are still three years away from that hypo being tested. They will bait us until we learn.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

D.A.R.E. to keep oligarchs off drugs!

This is a moral moment. It is not left or right, it is right or wrong.

BREAKING: We're suing the National Institutes of Health over their politically-motivated purge of research grants. This is an unlawful attack on scientific progress that puts lives at risk.

pro tip: if you can afford to blow $250 million on a losing campaign in Wisconsin, you can afford to pay a 90% top tax margin

Crockett: To have the sitting AG go on Faux News and decide that she wanted to send a threat to me was wrong.. I don’t like Elon Musk. I’m going to say it 50,000 times.

Trump is imposing a 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Islands. The Heard and McDonald Islands are uninhabited.

Tucson, Arizona today. Original projected attendance was 3,000 people. 23,000 showed up.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Just watched the President's "Liberation Day" speech. Based on this, I can confirm many Americans will be liberated from: - Being able to afford groceries - Much of their retirement savings - Any hope of buying a home As for lower prices? Just the opposite.

Instead of doing anything meaningful to lower prices for Americans, the Trump Tax on Working Families is an extreme escalation against our closest allies that will raise prices just to give Elon Musk and his wealthiest friends a tax break.

Donald Trump may want to call this ‘Liberation Day,’ but there’s nothing liberating for those who are grappling with the high costs of food, housing, and utilities.   Tariffs are a tax – a tax on working families, a tax on groceries, and a tax on other everyday necessities.

One of the things about having a post go viral is that you are offered a veritable smorgasbord of accounts to block and/or hide replies from, and you best believe that indeed I have indulged in that particular buffet
