Hey, here’s an idea. Let’s all write AOC and Elizabeth Warren and have them introduce bills to issue the $5000 payment to all adults now instead of after the midterms. 

A lot going on. We have to keep our eye on the ball(s). Senator Kelly please keep up the heat?

Seniors earned their Social Security and Medicare benefits by working and paying into the system. Receiving those benefits isn’t up for negotiation. I promise to always protect the benefits millions of Arizonans depend on.

“To you this is murder?” “Yes. I know it is. — People are feeling like there’s nobody here to help us. What can we do? The constitution doesn’t seem to matter.” She witnessed the killing of Alex Pretti, now she is bravely coming forward. Stella is the best of us. 🇺🇸

Thanks to Bluesky for working on algorithms! Before, my fav accounts were here, but most posts got lost down the list. I had unsuccessfully tried to “train” my feed by interacting with my favs. Now, “trending news” lists prioritize the order posts appear in feeds if I check “more or less.” It helps.

Why is the new rhetoric drawing distinctions between trade schools and colleges? Do they not know that most community colleges offer trades associate degrees (60 cr) and certificates (30 cr)? Why shouldn’t these folks accumulate college credits? They may want to count them someday toward a degree.

I want to know what is going on in the ports. Are customs offices collecting these new tariffs? Are there lines to get in under the wire? Are container ships backing up in harbors? Next week let’s check the retail prices of those goods…

Omg. This is horrifying. Congresswoman Kelly Morrison just revealed that Medicaid covers HALF of the kids in the United states, more than 40% of the births — and Republicans want it gone. The Republican funding bill impacts ALL OF US.

The University of Michigan’s latest survey, released Friday, showed US consumer sentiment fell 10% in February, twice the initial estimate, marking a second consecutive monthly decline, driven by worries over Trump’s tariffs potentially jacking up prices.

Ok…when is it going to happen? You can’t take many billions of dollars out of an economy without causing a related contraction. *Meaning recession* You can’t remove a labor force that supports the food industry without ruining crops. *Meaning recession* How long will it take for Main St to catch up?

TRUMP “IS F’ING THE MONKEY.” That’s how filmmaker Billy Wilder would’ve explained the dangerous mania about Gaza that has consumed him. It’s a sign of disqualifying and accelerating mental illness. He has to go. GET THE NEW THURSDAY COUNTDOWN PODCAST: tinyurl.com/46rev5ux

REPORTER: Do you view Ukraine as an equal member of this peace process? TRUMP: Ummmm ... it's an interesting question. I think they have to make peace. That was not a good war to go into.

BREAKING: RFK Jr, the most unfit and unqualified candidate for HHS Secretary, has just been confirmed by the Senate. With a drunken abuser heading the Pentagon, and a convicted felon in the White House, America clearly isn't hiring its best.
