Manufacturing employs 11m, tourism 12m. #richkid #amateur

If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, then it’s a duck !

Glad House Dems are demanding a full briefing—because immigration agents showed up at L.A. elementary schools, and DHS lied about it. Watch the video. Hear the truth from L.A.’s superintendent. Then ask why the hell Homeland Security is targeting kids. Don’t let this go!!!

Call Cruz and Cornyn offices, all of them! Protect voting rights! Stop suppressing our rights! #HandsOff Voting Rights!

Defeating authoritarianism and its inevitable rate limiting of innovation and growth- requires leaders with courage and creativity. Be clever. Act accordingly. The Real Goal of the Trump Economy - The Atlantic

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made. -FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.

Wall Street economist types are only "bewildered" and "uncertain" about Trump's tariffs because they refused to take Project 2025 seriously. The plan was always chaos, trauma, and total collapse of the postwar order. They're hollowing us out to create a vacuum for pluto-theocratic domination.

BREAKING: Acting IRS Commissioner Melanie Krause has resigned over the HHS demand that the Agency hand over the names and addresses of tax-paying undocumented immigrants to ICE for deportation enforcement. Krause is the third acting IRS Commissioner since Trump took office.

“But if federal courts cannot order the return of someone exiled to a foreign gulag by mistake, then the administration is free to exile citizens and then claim they did so in error, while leaving them to rot” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

@60minutes.bsky.social finds no evidence of criminal records in US or any other country for 75% of Venezuelans kidnapped and rendered to El Salvador. Of the rest, 22% had non-violent arrests for things like traffic violations.

A reminder that if the government can send migrants to a prison camp without any due process, it can send U.S. citizens there, too. I know because this happened to me and my family in 1942.

In years to come, the people who did this will be the ones who will go to jail.

Have been boycotting ULine since the first Trump admin.

Where is our humanity?

This!

If your NC vote has been challenged, the appeals court has triggered a 15-day "curing" period. It is imperative that you contact your local Board of Elections or legal representation for the next steps. The NC GOP is openly trying to steal their state's Supreme Court. Do not let them.

This is truth-

Isn’t this great!

🚨REMINDER: #CA02 high school artists!🚨 My office is accepting submissions for the 2025 Congressional Art Competition through Friday, April 18th. Don't forget to submit your work here: huffman.house.gov/helping-you/...

The Trump administration, with Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency, has gutted a small federal agency that provides funding to libraries and museums nationwide. This threatens student field trips, classes for seniors, and access to digital library services.

Crawford: I never could have imagined that I'd be taking on the richest man in the world for justice in Wisconsin. And we won.

Wisconsin! Judge Susan Crawford will work to protect your rights and freedoms. So get out there and vote today by 8pm. You can find your polling place at wisdems.org/vote. If you have any questions about voting, call or text the Voter Assistance Hotline at 608-336-3232.

Here's the story behind how our tip truck got rolling 🚚 Via @niemanlab.org:

I STAND WITH Jenner & Block, @wilmerhale.bsky.social , & Perkins, against tyranny and abuse of power. To paraphrase Judge Coughenor, History will look back and ask “where were the lawyers and judges” at this pivotal moment. Right here. www.jennerfirm.com

Here's the thing... We only know about the Signal chat because they invited an honest reporter into it. How many others are (were) there? How many of those have our adversaries cracked? Would you bet the life of your son/daughter serving in the military on your answer?

Hundreds show up for #Teslatakedown San Francisco. Strange - Tesla show room empty this week - no cars, no customers, just 3 salesMEN in black.

Moment of clarity today in the Senate where Republicans sided with big banks & against customers. Higher fees, lower transparency. Now it goes to the House - so call your Member of Congress to ask how they’ll vote!

If you think what happened to Rumeysa Ozturk can't happen to you because you're a citizen and she's not, you are sorely mistaken. Ozturk was snatched off the street not for being a national security threat but for having a wrong opinion. If we don't put a stop to this, it's coming for all of us.

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously. Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

A drunk in charge

I had legit completely forgotten this.

The most important part- besides already planning the war they way to lunch in time for mid term elections.

Again- the double speak of Pro NRA and using words like dictate- local school districts should not be local decisions. Arming teachers is the wrong move.

💅

Voila, like we said on @pivotpod.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/03/23/u...

THIS!

Make sure everyone in Wisconsin sees this

We are not overreacting

Walz: "I think we have to assume the very worst in everything this administration does, and we need to prepare for it."

I am happy to announce that the MeidasTouch Network hit 6 BILLION VIEWS yesterday on YouTube. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Three things: 1.Watch the tesla takedown call on youtube 2. Email your senators & rep on saving the department of education 3. Follow up with a phone call Congress is on recess- they’re home. If they’re having town halls, GO! We can do this.🇺🇸 www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2GFc5MQ/

Donald Trump has vowed to deport millions and jail his enemies. To carry out that agenda, his administration will exploit America’s digital surveillance machine. Here are some steps you can take to evade it.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved
