AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

We elected this man twice. Clearly and without fuss. Popular vote. Electoral college. All of it. No confusion or argument to have. I miss believing in this country. I miss that feeling of shared purpose. And I cannot possibly relate to anyone who voted for Trump thinking it was a vote for hope.

This is a million times worse than anything Hunter Biden was accused of doing in even the most fevered right-wing conspiracy dream

This isn’t an administration, it’s a crime syndicate

He's an idiot

I blame the media for not doing their job. It’s unforgivable the way they’ve ignored his cognitive decline.

hey so this is insane

You can never appease a tyrant.

“That’s not censorship per se, that’s just called leaning on a guy… Tony Soprano did it all the time, and he was a great person.” @brentterhune.bsky.social’s take on the government going after Kimmel for being too mean to the thin-skinned president Full: www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMeADsDP/

Cancel your Disney+, Hulu, ESPN, subscriptions. ABC could fight this easily in court but they choose not to out of greed.

Eggs still aren’t cheaper, beef is fucking expensive. Fucking everything is more expensive. They don’t give a fuck.

With the amount of news coverage, you’d think the pope got assassinated. Body transported on air-force two? Give me a break.

This whole Late Show/Colbert/Trump situation is sketchy but without naming the decision makers of Paramount and CBS then what are we even doing? I want names and pictures and interviews. Why do these people get to remain anonymous by the media?

Breaking news: Billionaire can’t take responsibility for his own actions. Passes blame to subordinate to deflect from his own inadequacies and improve his own poor self esteem.

Pete Hegseth is a weak, pathetic man. That press conference was an embarrassment.

Reminder that months after sharing war plans with family members and random journalists, authorizing a make-up studio in the Pentagon, and now greenlighting a $45 million+ parade with taxpayer dollars… Pete Hegseth has faced zero accountability. He should resign or be fired.

“No recording per FBI regs” what a bullshit line. There’s 200 cameras right next door, this isn’t an FBI SCIF. They just don’t want their fascist tactics shared to the rest of us.

WE HAVE MORE: As called in RUSSIA and ITALY

As called in Korea:

AIR FORCE NONE? 🥴 Trump’s Air Force One deal with Qatar isn’t final. Turns out he asked for the jet—they didn’t offer. And now Qatar wants a memo of understanding signed with DC first.

Throwback Thursday… At President Biden’s final State of the Union address, he backed the entire Republican Party into a corner, forcing them to deny that they were planning to slash Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid—just to hand billionaires a trillion-dollar tax cut. He knew!

I hope I’m wrong but there’s no way Post Malone lives past 2028. He’s sadly one of the good ones that doesn’t make it.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

I think some people forget that the only claim the Trump administration has on Kilmer Abrego is that he is a gang member. I kinda doubt he is one but also being a gang member is not inherently illegal in the USA. If it was, then we should arrest and deport all the oath keepers and 3 percenters.

This dumb motherfucker thought The Man in the High Castle was a documentary or a game plan.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Right now, there’s an important race happening that will shape the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the next 10 years. Judge Susan Crawford is ready to protect the fundamental rights and freedoms of all Wisconsinites. Make a plan to vote early today — don’t wait until April 1st: wisdems.org/vote

Now more than ever, we must step up action and protect #HealthForAll. Recent funding cuts are hitting global health hard—let’s take action before it’s too late! 🧵

Dictator shit

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

AOC: One thing I haven't seen is a good explainer of impoundment. Can you do one, so we can start explaining the stakes?

Shot / chaser

From what I understand, Musk is breaking laws with his DOGE. I know the DOJ is compromised and it’s unlikely that they would go after him, however I wonder if Musk could face any State criminal (not civil) charges. Any lawyers around to chime in?

I can’t help but think at least some of Trumps talks with Putin are intercepted and recorded by some security agency. If they are, and it’s as bad as we all suspect, then someone needs to leak them to the public ASAP.

The free world - minus the United States - will continue to do all they can to defend Ukraine, freedom, sovereignty & NATO. Why “minus the United States?” Because the President of the United States does not stand with the free world. He stands with Putin. He always has.

BREAKING: Judge Nichols has issued his written order formalizing his decision to block the Trump administration from putting 2,200 USAID workers on leave tonight. He also orders the reinstatement of 500 workers previously put on leave. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

WTF did Elon Musk send his brown shirts to destroy the PlayStation Network today?
