Trump's tariffs have cost the US nearly $30 trillion, this translates to an additional $300,000 per family of four. That’s more damage than any economic policy pursued by any president in US history. He's bankrupting the country in real time. fortune.com/2025/04/04/l...

This is despicable! They really want to bring back 19 century. 🤬 “If the bill passes, children as young as 14 would be allowed to work overnight shifts, even on school days. State law currently prohibits them from working earlier than 6.30 a.m. or after 11 p.m.”

This is what a deal with the devil looks like👇 @housegop.bsky.social JUST VOTED TO CUT Medicaid, SNAP benefits, school meals, & housing assistance all in exchange for giving corporations & billionaires a tax cut all at the  expense of the middle class.

A great sign. Get angry. Stay angry. And don't let up. Fuck these assholes.

NEW: A letter from an anonymous federal worker. Please read and share: www.muellershewrote.com/p/letter-fro...

Disgraceful, embarrassing, wrong and traitorous. Saying we’re sorry will never be enough, Ukraine. But please know that he doesn’t speak for most of us in America. Many of us tried to stop him. And we will continue to do so every single day.

"Only the president or attorney general can speak for “what the law is” in the United States." Umm, no . . . that's not how any of this works . . .

If you read one thing today read our latest piece we just posted. This one is a very important one. Please consider reading and sharing it with your friends, family, and neighbors. And as always, please share your thoughts and ideas. I am also going to post all of the text here as a thread. 1/

Support this wholeheartedly. If no press shows up, Trump has no media coverage, his favorite lifeline.

Okay what is going on here. Are the accounts at a private banking entity? Does the federal government have direct debit permission set up? So many questions as to how Treasury instructed this payment. (Via NY Post’s Craig McCarthy)

A 71-year-old woman has died after her oxygen supply was cut off when Trump announced his federal funding freeze.

NEW: A military fighter jet has crashed into San Diego Bay. This is the 6th plane collision (and 2nd military collision) since Trump took office.

JFC. It’s out in the open now. Republicans want to cut Medicaid by at least $880 billion. The ENTIRE budget of Medicaid is $880 billion.

NEW: Associated Press was banned from the Oval Office event today because it refuses to recognise the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. The Trump administration again behaving like a despot dictatorship. Thank you to AP for standing up for factual journalism 👏

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

I bet farmers are just LOVING their votes now.

LMAO. MORON.

Fucking ridiculous. And infuriating. I'm already tired of this shitty administration.

🍾 💰

FBI firings are a 5 alarm fire. Firing the senior leadership, scores of senior agents and hundreds of line agents will make us less safe from criminals and external threats. This is a catastrophe of yet incalculable proportions. These attacks on law enforcement are a menace to the American people.

Valleys are flooding just so Donald Trump could brag that he "turned on the water in California." Planes are crashing just so Donald Trump could brag that he "trimmed the staff at the FAA." He is such a simple-minded person who never thinks of consequences. Maybe because *he* has never faced any.

Just confirmed that the Trump administration shutdown the Medicaid portal for Florida. There are over 3.8 MILLION Floridians on Medicaid.

Protest today at the White House in response to Trump’s sweeping freeze of all federal aid. This flagrantly illegal power grab will affect every American. It cannot stand. 5pm. Be there if you possibly can. www.mobilize.us/climateactio...

It really sucks being intellectual and empathetic in a time with so much stupidity and hate.

Holy f*ck! Just days after his Nazi salute seen around the world, Elon Musk is speaking at an AfD rally about “German pride”, warning against “multicultural delusion”, and telling them not to feel guilty about the “sins of their great grandparents”.

Inspectors General are key public servants tasked with holding our government accountable. They’re independent, nonpartisan whose work is identifying fraud, waste, & importantly, abuse. Trump just fired them all. Make no mistake: he's purging those who will protect the rule of law.

NEW: Trump has terminated Dr. Anthony Fauci's security detail. Trump has now cancelled security protection for John Bolton, Mike Pompeo & Fauci, all of whom served in his administration. There’s no evidence that threats towards any of them have diminished. Vindictive & dangerous.

What most sucks about switching social media networks is having to rebuild an audience for my primary passion: writing books. BUT... if that's the cost of getting away from platforms that endorse the lies and policies of destructive political figures, so be it. I am not a slave to fascism.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

Donald Trump has revoked EO11246 signed by LBJ in 1965, mandating equal opportunities by federal contractors.

I want to make this abundantly clear for all those in doubt. It was a damn Nazi salute. You can rationalize or try to explain it away all you want. We have eyes. You explaining it away makes you look as stupid and pathetic as those you support.

Deleted. 😳

This is the guy who started the Silk Road dark website which was used the facilitate major global drug trafficking. Was serving life in prison. But when Trump wanted the Libertarian Party endorsement he promised them this. He never heard of Ulbricht. Even spelled his name wrong.

i said a few times here and there before the election that we’ll see what the mass deportation plan looks like when it’s ICE agents dragging grandmothers out of churches and, well, here we are

15 years ago today, the Supreme Court gave billionaires and special interests unprecedented power to rig our democracy with its disastrous Citizens United decision. Yesterday, Donald Trump was sworn in, ushering in the wealthiest Admin in American history. Citizens United paved the way for Trump II.

In case you're just tuning in... Donald Trump refused to put his hand on the Bible while taking the oath of office to uphold the Constitution. And Elon Musk did the Nazi salute. Twice. This is going about as you'd expect.

AXIOS: “$TRUMP memecoin — a financial asset that didn't exist Friday — now accounts for about 89% of Trump's net worth… a mechanism for the crypto industry to funnel cash to him…” And those who insisted Biden was corrupt will say nothing. www.axios.com/2025/01/19/d...

Is it ok here to say that I fucking detest Trump and his braindead followers? Or is that gonna get me on the domestic terrorist list?

No shit Sherlock.

Someone tell that sanctimonious pixie Speaker Mike Johnson that if he places conditions on California's ability to rebuild, his state, Louisiana, the Welfare Queen of Federalism, won't be able to fix any of its roads because that money comes from the far more successful economy of California.

Oh what a shocker. Trump and his cronies lied. Big news. 🙄

So, has he told people in California to go out into the woods and rake the leaves yet?

You voted for this. Twice.

My next novel is due out later this year. The fifth in my Oz series.

How did Elon manage to amass so much money when he has the mentality of a six-year old who has just learned how to insult at the toddler level?

You wonder why so many of us have fled American media? It's because of utter tripe like this.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is David Keyes, and I am an indie author and online film blogger located in the Pacific Northwest. I have penned and released four novels in an ongoing series I call "The New Oz Chronicles," with book five on the way in 2025. Join me on this ongoing journey!
