“We could do tremendous good for ourselves by just not trading with countries” — Trump’s bonkers view of trade is that you become wealthy by not engaging in commerce

Trump says 18 Americans dying fighting Iran is “small potatoes”

🧊✈️ USA TRAVEL WARNING 🚨 ⚠️ We have received multiple reports from different airports & airlines of plainclothes ICE agents using TSA passenger manifest data to identify, locate, and capture targets as they attempt to board domestic flights 😲 Denver – Southwest – 21 July 👀

"A new ruling from the Trump administration says that when the sun disappears at night, we don’t know where it goes. All remaining top scientists have been taken from their positions and tasked with getting to the bottom of this." www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.

It looks like it's been scrubbed from every official 60 Minutes page now. It's only a 30-second promo but here it is if you didn't get a chance to see it.

Sounds like it’s the GOP that’s playing politics with people’s livelihoods. Hold the line, Dems.

His plan to go after the midterms is clear

The Wall Street Journal is now walking back its earlier reporting that "transgender ideology" messages were found on the shooter's ammunition. But it's too late. That story is all around the country and the world. Most who have read it will not see the update. Thanks, WSJ.

Wow … today is really depressing.

"For the president, this is something that hits home, because he is a visual person and the visuals of him driving to his golf course and seeing those homeless encampments" -- Politico's Dasha Burns puts on a masterclass in Trump sanewashing on Fox News

Archie passed exactly one year ago yesterday … but it still feels like just hours ago. I am pretty sure she still visits regularly though. Even so, I miss her terribly.

This is bullshit. Not only do ICE bounty hunters refuse to identify themselves, they won’t say where they’re taking the people they’re kidnapping. Deliberately shuffling detainees from facility to facility so families can’t find them & they miss their chance at legal counsel. (Anaheim, CA)

They’re just going to keep taking your rights away and pretend it’s all Constitutional and dare you to stop them.

I'm giving you a mission for this Memorial Day holiday weekend. I want you to talk to two people—friends, neighbors, cookout attendees—about why Trump's proposed budget would be a disaster for American kids. We owe the next generation every chance, and this isn't it.

I have an idea … what if we ask Trump to spell “potato?”

How about some basic rules? --All law enforcement officers should wear identification --No law enforcement officers should be allowed masks --All law enforcement officers should wear and use body cams ...oh and... --All law enforcement officers should understand, respect & follow the law

And why was Baraka there in the first place? Turns out the private prison facility is violating the law, but also unwilling to be served with legal process apple.news/AV9JgWB8fQq6...

The book is on sale around the world now. Every penny I make goes to the dogs... lnk.to/TinaTheDogWh...

Trump poses as the Pope in full holy garments and gets a pass. Obama puts on a tan suit and they lose their frigging minds. See how that works?

A lot of people owe Biden a massive apology

Homan: "I don't want a misinterpretation of what I'm reading. If you're an illegal alien in the US, this message is for you. You cannot hide from ICE. We're actually looking for you. Federal law requires ever alien in the US who has been present in the US for more than 30 days needs to register."

TRUMP IS COMING TO MICHIGAN‼️ 50501 members organized VERY quickly to bring this event to you all!! Please sign up with the first link at 50501michigan.com More info to come when we learn more!

Ah yes, the government asking Jews to register as Jewish, in the name of protecting the Jews. No way that could go wrong www.nytimes.com/2025/04/23/n...

Crucial context here: @adamisacson.com suggests that there may be as many as 31 people imprisoned in CECOT whose names have never been made public. Their families have literally no public acknowledgment or way of knowing where their loved one is being held. That is a classic disappearance.

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies. Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

Senator Chris Van Hollen went to El Salvador to meet with the president over the judicial order to release Kilmar Abrego and told the press that he was told the Trump administration knows where Abrego is because Trump is paying El Salvador to keep him locked up there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dA49...

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

The New Normal: a quick but general update on the state of the household - and a final plea for in memoriam donations to the wonderful rural no-kill shelter who gave us Greyson back in the spring of 2012. www.cheriepriest.com/blog/a-new-n...

Certainly worth repeating in the times we are in..

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

“.. judging only from price action, we are suddenly witnessing a comprehensive turn away from US assets (stocks, USTs, corporate credit and the dollar). this is the single most important theme to monitor over coming weeks. .. for the moment capital is flowing out of the US.” - GS Desk/Pasquariello

100%. It really is time to go there. Again.

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory DISGRACEFUL! 25% of Michiganders rely on Medicaid, many in rural counties. 100% of their House GOP Representatives voted to cut it’s funding & cheered when it passed. 0% of them should have a job after 2026! They don’t deserve to represent us!

Is there any link between the Trump admin’s “deal” with El Salvador and Bukele’s plan for a “Bitcoin City,” which was going to be scaled back in order to receive loans from the IMF — and Trump admin’s plans to use gold reserves to buy Bitcoin? Or all just coincidence theweek.com/business/eco...

Trump is also saying that the once the US has rounded up individuals, with minimal or zero due process, on whatever pretext they choose, they can send them out of the US to face torture, death, life imprisonment, slave labor or other fates that are unconstitutional or illegal in the US.

This is always where it was headed and we can't trust retailers like Amazon not to comply. Shop your local indies, support your local library, and as always fuck fascism.

Plainclothes agents. Trying to question elementary-aged kids. And lying that they had parents permission to do so.

Asked about the court order to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia from El Salvador, Trump said this tonight, per White House pool: “If the Supreme Court said bring somebody back I would do that. I respect the Supreme Court...I have great respect for the Supreme Court."

“Mommy, no. Mommy.” Daughter captures the moment masked ICE agents smash the window of her mother's car in order to take her into custody. The government claims the 52-year old seamstress is an associate of the MS-13 gang. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/lo...

Ah...the traditional Republican Stock Market Crash. It usually takes them a few years to accomplish it, but this time they pulled it off during the first 100 days.

"Jeffries is certainly correct that a third term is unconstitutional. But it does not follow that it is impossible. Trump is an insurrectionist occupying the presidency. That’s unconstitutional, but there he is. No one was willing to stop him. This is Trump’s entire playbook, endlessly repeated."

Absolute BLOODBATH at HHS/NIH/CDC this morning. Generation of scientists, health care officials being wiped out t.co/LeABrGqDei
